Reinventing the Ragozin by Surya Ganguly

The Ragozin Defence (1.d4 Nf6 2.c4 e6 3.Nf3 d5 4.Nc3 Bb4) has become a cornerstone of modern chess theory. With 3.Nf3 gaining popularity as a way to avoid Nimzo-Indian setups and the challenges Black faces in the Queen’s Indian, the Ragozin offers a solid and dynamic alternative.

In this course, GM Surya Ganguly, renowned as an opening expert and former second to Vishy Anand, provides a comprehensive repertoire for Black. The lines presented emphasize strategic complexity while aiming to neutralize White’s early advantage. Covering all major continuations, the course not only offers the latest theoretical insights but also explains the underlying strategic concepts behind each move. Ganguly introduces conceptually fresh directions in several key lines – even in the most played main lines. The Ragozin is now a staple among top grandmasters – time to add it to your repertoire!
