GM Anton Guijarro: 2. Nf3 versus the "French Defense"

10/11/2021 – GM Anton Guijarro inspired chess players and gave honor to Spain especially when he beat Super GM Fabiano Caruana (USA) in theoretical fashion. At move 6. Bb5, obviously a prepared line undeniably with a bad motive to outplay black as shown in game 1.

The featured game 2 has all the ingredients of strategy and tactical play. GM Aleksandar Indjic is an extraordinary talent. He can reach 2700 rating in no time with his chess skills. A good coffee deserves your thirst for chess knowledge..cheers.

GM Anton Guijarro's fantastic: 6. Bb5

1st Game : Check diagram below (GAME VIEWER 1)

The exchange of bishop at b5 to the knight at d7 embodied white's plan to close the position where white's two knights successfully controlled the center. This game is a must see how GM Fabiano Caruana was outsmarted by the Spanish GM. Bravo!! GM Guijarro..

Black's 3...d4 move: Reversed Nimzowitsch

2nd Game: Check diagram below (GAME VIEWER 2)

This game is an example of a reversed Nimzowitsch Opening. GM Aleksandar Indjic showed his deep understanding based on his game plan. I enjoyed it. Amazing!!!
