The Czech Benoni in ACTION
- Author: Andrew Soltis
- Pages: 204
- Publication Years: 2014
Had enough of the same old queenâ€™s pawn openings? Afraid of losing just because you forgot Whiteâ€™s latest move 23 novelty in the main lines? Tired of giving up draws to weaker players whoâ€™ve learned how to drain the life out of Blackâ€™s major defenses to 1.d4? If so, then the Czech Benoni (1.d4 Nf6 2.c4 c5 3.d5 e5!?) may be exactly what you need.

In The Czech Benoni in Action, two practitioners of this little-known but sound counterattacking system join forces to show how you can pose novel problems for opponents of all strengths, leaving them to fend for themselves as early as move 3.

Flank gambits, deep behind-the-lines maneuvering, and wildly unbalanced positions are the norm here. Focusing on strategic ideas rather than masses of variations, and using complete games to show how the themes persist even into the ending, the authors survey Whiteâ€™s common responses and explain how to handle attempts to sidestep Blackâ€™s setup. To help guide you through the complications, a concluding selection of typical tactical motifs rounds out the most complete treatment of the Czech Benoni in print.
