Presented by International Grandmaster Eugene Perelshtyen for ChessLecture.com

GM Perelshtyen shows how to employ the Exchange Variation as he often has at the GM

Level. The Exchange Variation 1.e4 c6 2.d4 d5 3.exd5 cxd5 is a very subtle line for white to

fight for a long-term positional advantage based on a rapid development of your two bishops

that will make it very difficult in turn for black to develop his bishops to active diagonals.

Content: 1.5 hours of chess theory and discussion, with an example game, in a series of 4
