Customer Reviews of More Chess Openings: Traps and Zaps 2
Erik from Rockford More Chess Openings: Traps and Zaps 2 ReviewMore detailed openings series than the first book, but still great. Great for teaching openings to a new-ish player. Very heavily focused on avoiding mistakes in the opening. Walks readers through an opening series then challenges readers to figure out why a particular move was "bad". Finally, it then gives readers a detailed explanation of the idea behind the opening and the reasons this move was a bad idea.
