Catalogue text:

International Master Jan Pinski delves into the secrets of the Four Knights for the first time, studying the tactical and strategic ideas for both white and black players.

The Four Knights has the distinction of being one of the oldest openings in the history of chess. In a king's pawn opening, both players bring out their knights before contemplating further development. Despite its deceptively peaceful appearance, the Four Knights can lead to wild gambit play as well as calmer positional waters, while adherents include the renowned tactician from Latvia, Alexei Shirov.
In this new book, International Master Jan Pinski delves into the secrets of the Four Knights for the first time, studying the tactical and strategic ideas for both white and black players. Pinski covers both the fashionable main lines and the tricky sidelines, bringing the reader right up to date with the expanding theory.
" Written by a leading openings expert
" Covers both White's and Black's main options
" A popular choice for club and tournament players
International Master Jan Pinski is a young and talented player from Poland, who is also well regarded as an openings theoretician. His earlier works for Everyman include Sicilian Kalashnikov (co-authored with the Danish International Master Jacob Aagaard) and Classical Dutch.

The Four Knights has made a comeback to the international chess circuit. Once it was used by the shameless in order to make a draw in a dozen or so moves, but now it has become a strong surprise weapon and a real alternative to the Ruy Lopez and other main openings. Based on home preparation and serious analysis it has been possible for top players to use this system to fight for an advantage. Objectively the different variations only give equality, but that is the eternal problem of openings. Against strong black defence, White cannot force an advantage. Chess is a fighting game where the better-prepared player will usually prove an advantage. That is why ancient and forgotten openings have come back into tournament chess. It is often possible to find a lot of new ideas in these openings from the 19th century, where the understanding of chess was far different from what it is today. I would like to recommend:

4 g3, the Glek System, for those who need an hour or so to recover from a party the evening before, before getting into the game.
4 d4 exd4 5 Nd5!? for those addicted to tricks and complications.
4 a3 as an advanced trick, but mainly for those who like absolutely no theory
4 d4 and 5 Nxd4 for a calm, positional and somewhat harmless game.
4 Bb5 for either a quiet, positional game or a real fireworks, depending on Black's response.

This book deals with many typical ideas and plans. Learning and understanding these is essential. They will help you when you enter into new territory, and they will also help you remember what you need to remember. I hope you enjoy reading the book as much as I enjoyed writing it.
Finally, I would like to thanks National Candidate Master Tomasz Olenderek for his kindness, and for letting me use his great archive of chess material. Special thanks for assistance, a critical viewpoint and the new idea 4 Bb5 Bd6 5 g4!? to National Master Rafal Przedmojski.
