Synopsis
The Benko Gambit is a great opening for those who like active play. Black sacrifices a pawn in order to activate his pieces on the queenside, and generally gains enduring pressure. It has been played by recent world champions like Veselin Topalov, Vishy Anand and Garry Kasparov, and is a popular choice with amateurs all over the world. Grandmaster Sergey Kasparov, who has extensive experience with the Benko, presents a complete repertoire for Black, with many new ideas and improvements on existing theory. This book is accessible for the average club player but stronger players, too, will learn many things they didn't know., The Benko Gambit is a great opening for anyone who likes aggressive chess. Black sacrifices a pawn for active play on the queenside and his initiative often continues into the endgame. That's why the opening is very popular among club players, but also World Champions such as Veselin Topalov, Vishy Anand and Garry Kasparov have played the Benko. Sergey Kasparov has practiced the Benko Gambit himself for many years. He knows all the subleties of Black's and White's plans in detail. In lively, personal and highly instructive prose he presents a complete repertoire, with many new concepts, for Black. Kasparov helps the reader to get a firm grip on this opening. He does not present endless computer variations but concentrates on ideas and concepts. After studying The Dynamic Benko Gambit, amateurs as well as professionals will be much more dangerous attackers! Book jacket.
