Dynamic Reti

by Nigel Davies

Overview

The Reti Opening has been a popular choice at all levels of chess for many years and is a favourite among hypermodern players who like to control the centre with pieces. Yet there remains a dearth of published material on this subject ... until now. In The Dynamic Reti, Grandmaster Nigel Davies redresses the balance and advocates a repertoire for White based on this refined opening. Davies outlines the typical ideas and tactics for both White and Black, and studies both the fashionable main lines and the tricky sidelines. This is essential reading for chess players who are already familiar with the Reti and for those who are looking for a sophisticated new opening weapon.

*A dynamic repertoire for White
*Full explanation of the most important thematic ideas
*Ideal for club and tournament players
