Hello participants, spectators and visitors! Welcome to Part 1 of the London System: The London System - 1.d4 d5 2.Bf4. This opening was thought to be a boring opening, but, one of the most influential person for the London System, GM Simon Williams, made this opening in some lines aggressive and tactical.

 

This tournament is for GM Simon Williams.

To Simon Williams: Thanks for the videos you made on the London System (Opening ideas / theory, as well as the Longer Games Series) they have built me a solid opening that I can play every second game.

 

Part 2 will follow up after this tournament (or sooner!) where they will play 1. d4 Nf6 2. Bf4 g6
