Description of Roman's Lab Vol 68: Qd6 Scandinavian, The #1 Underestimated Wepon for Black Against 1.e4
Roman's Lab Vol 68: Qd6 Scandinavian, The #1 Underestimated Weapon for Black Against 1.e4, is from the Roman and Rybka: Perfecting the Opening Series, by Grandmaster Roman Dzindzichashvili.
Roman, along with Grandmaster Eugene Perelshteyn and Rybka, have reinvented the Qd6 Scandinavian. This opening is the best unexplored and underestimated weapon available for black ever.
Roman and Eugene demonstrate that what makes this opening so inviting is that there is not much to learn! There is an easy equality and it can't be refuted. It is rich with tactics, counter-play and hidden traps. It has been played with success against world-champion Viswanathan Anand and although he had prepared by playing against it, he still could only manage a draw.
Roman sums it up by saying that it is like legally cheating at chess because with a little effort you will get a high return. It is an easy opening you can't wait to play but one you hope no one else finds out about!
Roman and Rybka-- Perfecting the Opening Series, will help you get an advantage over your opponent by arming you with original and unknown theory.
