On Susan Polgar’s three-part DVD
series

and exciting battles from the first opening she ever
learned. With a total running time of more than five
hours, she shows you the key to learning the French
Defense, the pawn strategies, the tactical motifs
and the basic plans.
Dzindzisms
Roman Dzindzichashvili is certainly a
colorful personality, and, as evidenced by his DVD
Roman’s Lab: Volume 26, Nimzowitsch’s “My System”
Part 1, he can well be called the Yogi Berra of
chess. Dzindzi takes a fresh look at Nimzowitsch’s
classic, often with informative results. Read the
full review
here.
Alex Dunne
FM Alex Dunne gives advice to aspiring
scholastic chess players about what attitude and
approach is needed to become a stronger player. Now
in the
Video Spotlight.
Reference
Library
Henry Buckle’s commonplace book testifies to
the extensive reading, and large research of its
gifted compiler. The
Skittles Room this week presents “Buckle’s Chess
References,” an excerpt from Waifs and Strays,
Chiefly from the Chessboard by Captain Hugh A.
Kennedy.
