With so many openings to choose from, it’s hard to find one that suits your chess style.

Are you interested?

If so, keep reading for more info about how you can transform your game as Black with the Dutch Defense!

In chess, White determines the initial trajectory of the game, giving Black an immediate disadvantage. Because of this, it can become difficult to prepare against all of White’s possible plans.

Also, with 1. d4 easily known as one of the most popular, yet complex, opening moves, it is important to solidify how you will respond. Many times, it can be a good idea to take your opponent away from the standard replies and into the sharper, lesser-used theory behind the Dutch.

That’s why we present to you GM Marian Petrov’s masterful review of the entire Dutch Defense in his latest 3-hour course!

If you are looking for a new way to take White out of his/her comfort zone, don’t hesitate to learn from GM Petrov’s legendary series describing all of the Dutch lines you can easily implement into your games.

From top-tier game review the detailed theoretical analysis of Dutch variations, you will be more than ready to surprise your opponent and claim a thrilling Dutch victory!
