Description: What should you play as White against the French Defense? GM Jesse Kraai recommends the Advance Variation. Learn everything you need to know in order to face the French with confidence in this 6.5-hour course - instant access with 50% off! ►ichs.co/3f2QisY One opening has been frustrating 1.e4 players for nearly 200 years. It looks timid, blocks in a piece, and is generally anti-positional. All this led to the first World Champion - Wilhelm Steinitz - saying, “I have never in my life played the French Defense, which is the dullest of all openings.” But, as many have discovered, the French is a tough nut to crack. Both Fischer and Kasparov (in their early days) employed offbeat ways to avoid the main lines in the French as they just weren’t getting anywhere. If you play 1.e4, you NEED a system to beat the French or your results will suffer. Grandmaster Jesse Kraai's new 6½-hour course teaches you how to play the Advance variation like a master. This video is an exclusive preview from his course, Advancing Against the French. As you can see from watching the video, this is far more than “another opening course”. Far more than a list of recommended lines. GM Kraai shows you how to attack Black’s setup and how to deal with all the different strategies Black relies on. He explains how to use the space advantage to your benefit (a skill that is more difficult and complicated than many players realize), something that even gave the legendary Bobby Fischer a serious challenge. ► Corresponding article from this video with extra goodies: ichs.co/36whT1B ► Join the iChess Club, an exclusive community for our top chess fans: ichs.co/ytclub ► Come check out the iChess.net shop, we have the world’s largest collection of chess videos and chess courses: ichs.co/iChessShop ********** Other Videos from iChess ********** ► Subscribe to our main Youtube Channel: ichs.co/iChSubscribe ► Check out our Master Method video series: ichs.co/MasterMethod Check out our most recent video: ichs.co/latest-chess-video ********** FOLLOW US ON SOCIAL: *********** Facebook: ichs.co/iChessFB Twitter: ichs.co/iChessTwitter YouTube: ichs.co/iChSubscribe ********** Our Other YouTube Channels *********** iChess Ch 2: ichs.co/iChess2 iChess en español: ichs.co/iChessESP
