In
Kill K.I.D. 1 Semkov offers an entirely new approach to the Four Pawns Attack against the King's Indian Defence (K.I.D.)Semko Semkov, author from several bestsellers as
The Safest Sicilian and
The Queen's Gambit Accepted has been trying to kill the KID for more than 20 years. The author feels that current theory of the Four Pawns Attack is totally messed up if not entirely wrong.'I have always been unhappy with the Classical Variation against the KID. It's an enormous amount of theory that is impractical to keep in pace with, even for a professional player. An ever bigger problem is the character of positions that arise. There is something basically wrong to give black players such attacking chances as in the Classical Variation.'The author does not offer just minor improvements here and there, but he developes original aggressive ways to combat the KID in all the major systems and analyses them in great detail.This new approach will cause considerable headache to black players!
