There has to be a reason why these off-beat openings are rarely played at master level, and that is because it is very easy for Black to get a good game against them - BUT only if he knows what he is doing. Now, thanks to this brand-new Foxy Openings DVD, players of the Black pieces will never have to worry again!

Former US Open Champion Timothy Taylor takes a contemporary look at one of Black's most ambitious counters to 1 e4, the Alekhine Defence.
