Description
The French Defence after 1.e4 e6 can be a tough opening to play against.
This course shows how one can win quickly sometimes against the French Defence by setting a broad range of traps for the unsuspecting French defence player. A number of different variations are explored which may act as candidates for a broader opening repertoire for use against the French Defence.
The Variations which are explored in this course to set traps include
The Winawer Variation
The Classical variation
The Rubinstein Variation
The Tarrasch Variation
The Advance Variation
The Exchange variation
This course goes over the major chess opening traps that every chess player should be aware of in the French Defence. You may wish to explore different openings to gain an understanding of different pawn structures and imbalances. In doing so, you might incur the risk of falling victim to opening traps. This course will help make sure you don't fall into anything too nasty along the way, and you can also use these against unsuspecting opponents.
Traps also enable one to improve understanding of chess tactics such as X-ray attacks, double attacks, deflections, and other aspects of tactical chess. They can be a great points scorer especially for tournaments where one needs to win quickly such as many online chess tournaments. A knowledge of traps therefore can help understand chess tactics better.
