Play online chess
Subject: stonewalll attack study material

Message:
can anybody point me in the direction of any stonewall attack opening material / an online guide or a chessbase database.

I've been experimenting with it and it seems not as good or systematic as I expected so I'm probably not getting the move order right.

Thanks,
Spurtus

Message:
Dear Sir,I play the Stonewall attack a lot myself, have won few games with it. I have only seen one book on Stonewall attack it put out by Chess Digest,written by GM Andrew Soltis, I saw the book for sale on www.amazon.com It was expensive I though for the book. I hope this helps you out. Good luck in future games. Thanks

Stonewall attack

Message:
The book "How to think ahead in chess" by Reinfeld/ Horowitz is a repertoire book that covers the basics of the stonewall. Amazon is way too expensive though. I bought my copy at a local used bookstore for about $5.

Chess news:

Topalov Wins First Game of World Chess Championship Match -- Veselin Toplaov of Bulgaria got off to a great start in the world chess championship match as he won Game 1 after Viswanathan Anand of India, the world chess champion, blundered. The game was barely out of the opening stages when Anand erred in a dynamically balanced position. Facing checkmate, he resigned after only 30 moves. It was a startlingly quick and unexpected beginning to a match that many experts have said is too close to call. Anand, who has been world chess champion since 2007, is ranked No. 4 in the world, but has been ranked No. 1. His ranking has slipped recently as he prepared to defend his title. Topalov is ranked No. 2 and was ...

Anand Wins Game 2 to Square Title Match -- Viswanathan Anand of India, the reigning world chess champion, beat Veselin Topalov of Bulgaria in Game 2 of their world chess championship match to even the score at 1 point each. Anand had lost the first game after a terrible blunder, but he bounced back with a fine performance on Sunday. The match is a best-of-12 with a prize fund of two million euros (about $2.7 million). Although not a blistering win by Anand, it was efficient and workmanlike. He actually was worse out of the opening but slowly and surely outplayed Topalov, who finally made a couple of errors that allowed Anand to force a winning endgame. The ball is now in Topalov’s court and it will be interesting ...

Fide world chess championship: Topalov takes on Anand -- The Bulgarian challenger finished the first game in brutal style. After two games, the score in the Anand-Topalov world championship match is even. Bulgarian Topalov won the first, but Anand struck back in the second. As is often the case, the moves off the board play a role too. Anand's flight to Sofia was cancelled due to the ash cloud, so he was forced to make a 40-hour car journey from Frankfurt. He asked for the first game to be postponed by three days, but the organising committee – which includes Topalov's manager and Bulgaria's PM – rejected the request. The match only started after the International Chess Federation insisted on a compromise of one ...
