Learn the Center Game for White with FM Milan Popovic
What if you could learn one simple opening system…
That doesn’t require much theory…
Yet scores over 70% with White?
FM Milan Popovic was in the same boat.
He could spend a zillion hours on openings like everyone else…
Instead, he went with the Center Game, an under-the-radar opening that most under 2300 have no idea how to handle.
Thanks to this opening, Milan has racked up a 70% win rate in classical chess and a whopping 77% online (with over 60 wins).
FM Milan Popovic squeezed in some time between beating the top 10 players in blitz & bullet and sweeping OTB tournaments to put together an easy-to-digest 7.5-hour training on the Center Game.
Here is what you’ll learn:
- Blueprint for handling the ‘garbage moves’ when Black tries everything possible to avoid the Center Game (if you are under 2000, this will be your bread & butter)
- A powerful strategy for steering the game into a Center Game setup no matter what moves Black makes
- Complete algorithm to launching an unstoppable king’s side attack that leads to either heavy material loss for Black or Checkmate
- The mindmap that helps you make the best exchanges while automatically positioning your pieces for an attack
- Full guide to Center Game pawn structures allowing to take advantage of Blacks pawn chain weaknesses
- Library or attacking plans & ideas, where you can mix things up and always find a fresh way of getting that ‘1-0’
- The Antidote for all the popular Black setups; just plug these ideas into your games and get an instant advantage
These are just a few things you’ll learn from this course.
FM Popovic is fully committed to giving you a complete opening system. That’s why, in addition to the opening videos, he’s also included:
- A fully annotated PGN vault loaded with novelties, attacking & middlegame ideas
- A quick and easy video summary of the repertoire
- Model Games Chapter to really cement the ideas
- Plus, there’s an “Applying the Theory” section where FM Popovic uses this opening against various opponents at different skill levels
