For decades, the chess world has run down the reputation of the
Colle-Zukertort (a.k.a. the Rubinstein Attack) as an unassuming opening,
claiming it did not exact the full measure of pain from Black in the quest to
equalize.
If such is the case, why do strong players (as Black) avoid the Zukertort?
Instead, they opt to play any of several pet defenses rather than deal with the
constriction and onslaught from the main line.
In Zuke ‘em: The Colle-Zukertort Revolutionized, David Rudel explains the
basics of the Zukertort and then provides plenty of new ideas to address these
various pet defenses that cowardly opponents may choose.
In this book you will also find:
- Introductory chapters for those
who would not know the Zukertort from a Lemon Torte.
- Analysis in real
English from the perspective of someone who has played the opening exclusively
for over a decade.
- A barrage of never-before-published answers and
extensive commentary on common lines.
- A training section to help you
retain and test your understanding of the opening.
