Dutch Stonewall

Recommended Rating

Topic Purpose

The Dutch Defense is the most confrontational defense versus the Queen’s Gambit.

Also, the thing I hate THE MOST in chess games is losing a game in the ending that I should win. Advanced FBCC classes include endgame studies so that its members excel at winning endgames. Our players are better prepared for endgames than just about anyone else and often win games in the ending that they would otherwise lose.
