Opening Worries

I don’t have the time to develop a stellar repertoire. I just want a few lines that will take me into a playable middle game. Also, I want to have fun playing chess. David Rudel has done a fine job writing ”Zuk’em – The Colle-Zukertort Revolutionized” and almost lured me over to the Dark Side (i.e. playing 1. d4). Mr. Rudel has a strong allied in the writings of Purdy (Household Hero!).

As Black? Well, I have had flirts with the Modern and the Black Lion (d6, Nf5, Nbd7, e5) but my results using those systems have been so-so. IM Martin has a new DVD on an all purpose 1… b6 repertoire.
