      A sample white repertoire.pgn
      During the Thursday classes we have started to build a repertoire for the white pieces. We have settled on 1.e4! and we are exploring all the sensible answers by Black. This is a work in progress..!

      Kamsky-Leko_Amber5.pgn
      A powerful and instructive game. The opening is a rare variation of the Ruy Lopez sometimes called the Doubly Deferred Exchange Variation. It's not supposed to be particularly good but Kamsky injects new life into it with his Q-side pawn advance.

      For those who missed the lesson on the Dragon, I added a big part of the material we went over in the comments to these 2 very famous games. (Both selected as among the best 100 games ever played.)
