The Tarrasch was originally advocated by the German master Siegbert Tarrasch who contended that the increased mobility Black enjoys is well worth the inherent weakness of the isolated center pawn. 1.d4 d5 2.Nf3 c5 3.c4 e6 4.cxd5 exd5 5.Nc3 Nc6 6.g3 Nf6 7.Bg2 (Rubinstein– Tarrasch, 1912).

Fans on Chesslecture.com said:This has been a very enjoyable series! There is so much emphasis on the ‘latest and greatest’ that we forget to mine these classic contests of the past and learn from them. Well presented and nice touch finding the missing tactical means by which Capa may have extracted himself and not lost the game.
