Scandinavian
The Easy Way

It’s easy-to-learn and easy-to-play. Here is an opening for Black which will furnish good results in the shortest possible time. Which other opening could we be referring to apart from the Scandinavian or Centre-Counter Defence: 1.e4 d5!. International Master Andrew Martin has written extensively on the Centre-Counter and here he turns his attention to 1.e4 d5 2.exd5 Qxd5 3.Nc3 Qd6!?. Playing flat out for the win against 1.e4 is never easy, but here we encounter a variation where Black can do just that! All relevant second and third move alternatives for White are covered too! This DVD will be a boon to all chess players, but particularly to the busy person with limited time for study or those who wish to incorporate a new defense into their Black repertoire with the minimum possible hassle. This really is the Scandinavian – the easy way!

Andrew Martin is 47 years old and lives in Sandhurst, England, with his wife and four children. He has written several best-selling chess books, including the recent "King’s Indian Battle Plans" and "Secret Weapons". He writes for ChessPublishing.com and has several monthly columns at Chessville.com, JeremySilman.com and for CHESS magazine. He is a noted trainer and coach.
