Libro en inglés

La mayoría de aperturas han existido desde hace siglos; el primer libro sobre la Apertura Española data de 1561. Pero no es así con el sistema de este libro. Es una apertura moderno que sólo ha conseguido prominencia en la última decada, más o menos. Está bautizada en honor al visionario georgiano de ajedrez, Baadur Jobava, un gran maestro creativo e imaginativo. Gracias a sus esfuerzos tenemos en nuestras manos un arma para asestar feroces ataques. Como se trata de una nueva apertura, los métodos defensivos aún no están asentados. Esto hace que sea un sistema extremadamente dinámico.

Most chess openings have been around for centuries; the first book on the Ruy Lopez was written in 1561. Not so the Jobava System. This is a thoroughly modern opening that has only achieved prominence in the last decade or so. It is named after the Georgian chess visionary Baadur Jobava, a highly imaginative and creative grandmaster. The Jobava System is based around the opening moves 1 d4 d5 2 Nc3 Nf6 3 Bf4. For many years this was considered to be a quiet and unassuming backwater of chess theory. No longer!

Thanks to the efforts of Jobava and others this system has been honed into a fierce attacking weapon. As this opening is so new the correct defensive methods are not well understood. This makes the system extremely dynamic and dangerous.

In this book, Simon Williams (the Ginger GM) delves deep into the Jobava and offers up a complete repertoire based on this exciting new system. The advantages are clear:

    There is very little existing theory
    Black cannot play safely on “auto-pilot”
    It is fresh and it’s fun!
