Viktor Moskalenko

Estrategia y armas sorpresa para jugadores inquietos En opinión del autor, incluir la Defensa Francesa en su repertorio dota a cualquier ajedrecista de un plus de prestigio. La diferencia principal de esta apertura respecto a las demás grandes defensas estriba en que, en lugar de jugar de memoria largas líneas forzadas o teóricas, el jugador de la francesa debe demostrar su comprensión de las posiciones típicas y de los conceptos de la apertura, dado que conduce enseguida al medio juego y, por lo tanto, a la batalla real. Este libro sobre "La Defensa Francesa" pretende combinar diversos ingredientes: la experiencia del autor con esta apertura, conceptos y análisis de líneas creativas con el objetivo de crear un repertorio combativo para los jugadores de negras al mismo tiempo que se presentan abundantes ideas agudas para las blancas. Además, esta defensa está repleta de recursos estratégicos y tácticos, y entre sus líneas, según muchos maestros, se cuentan las variantes más complicadas del ajedrez. También cabe tener presentes sistemas olvidados que todavía rebosan posibilidades, líneas agudas y exóticas, ideas originales y mucho más…
