My First Chess Opening Opening Repertoire for Black

Every chess player needs to decide which openings he's going to play. But where do you start?

The risk of drowning in the turbulent sea of opening theory is only too real for beginning amateurs.

Often your goals and ambitions will be misguided. If you're trying to win in 20 moves, copy what's in fashion among top-GMs or memorize variations, you're wasting your time. Most likely you will never get to play your prepreparation and end up aimlessly switching from one opening to the other.

Experienced French chess trainer Vincent Moret provides a complete, ready-to-go chess opening repertoire for Black with a sound set of lines that do not outdate rapidly, do not require memorization and are easy to digest for beginners and post-beginners.

Moret uses games of young, improving players to highlight the errors they tend to make.

Vincent Moret (1968) has been teaching chess and training talented youngsters for more than 20 years. Many of his pupils have won important prizes and some have become Masters and Grandmasters.
