Description
The Orangutan opening, 1.b4, is a unique and challenging repertoire for White players. By launching an instant attack on Black's queenside right from the start, this opening forces Black to think creatively and face unfamiliar set-ups and structures.
Carsten Hansen presents a comprehensive repertoire of moves starting with 1.b4, which has been infused with new ideas and concepts. This book provides guidance on how to deal with Black's most common attempts at refutation, helping White players navigate the complexities of this opening.
With its innovative approach, the Orangutan opening is an interesting game where both players are challenged to play creatively from the outset. This book is a valuable resource for experienced chess authors and players looking to explore new ideas in their repertoire.
