Petrov's Defence; Steinitz Attack

Sort:
MihkelJ

Hey,

I am unable to find much information about that particular opening. It's not talked about in the books or videos I have read/watched. Would be grateful if somebody shared knowledge to me about this opening.  I play Petrov defence as black and am kinda lost if white chooses that particular steinitz attack route 3. d4.

What books are you trying to find it in?  An e4 repertoire for White?

 

Every Petroff book I have seen that is either objective (like the everyman book written in 2004ish) or book written for Black, like Cohen's book for New In Chess or the book that Chess Stars published, or the move by move book all cover it.

I believe GM Swapnil Dhopade has recently written a new book on the Petrov. Quality Chess is the publisher

Yes, but not published and released until July 15th.  I tried to mention books in print.
