The Advance Variation is one of the most dangerous weapons white can employ against the French Defense, involving an early 1. e4 e6 2. d4 d5 3. e5 – however in the below excerpt from the 4+ hour chess DVD ¨Crushing White – The French Defense¨ by GM Damian Lemos and Will Stewart, the viewer will learn an exceptional way of combatting this line and fighting for an advantage with black in the opening. GM Lemos is a leading expert in the French Defense and invites viewers to share his years of experience with this solid opening, demonstrating an extremely effective line of play for black against the Advance Variation. Although black chooses to close the position and release his pressure against white´s center with an early 6. …c4, it is a very natural responses to white´s 6. a3 in this line as black will be able to lock down the b3-square and essentially achieve complete control of the queenside for the remainder of the game. The position does become very closed in nature, however there is strong potential for a long struggle as both sides still have all of their starting material! In the below chess video, you will learn how to strike back against white in the Advanced Variation of the French Defense.
