Chebanenko's move 4...a6 in the Slav Defense has grown to become one of the main systems for Black. It is an extremely flexible and almost universal weapon against the Queen's Gambit. The Chebanenko Slav is very popular among the best players such as Bologan, the author of this book, and Alexei Shirov. Both club players and Internet players like it because it offers solidity to the black position as well as active counterplay in all lines. Here full coverage is provided to all the variants resulting from the moves 3.Cf3 Cf6 4.Cc3 a6, and all the ultra-modern ideas behind this system of play. But this book is also intended as a tribute to the inventor of this variation, Vyacheslav Andreevich Chebanenko. This enigmatic professor was the mastermind behind a strong generation of players. Play 4…a6 in the Slav! I used to think it was a waste of time, but it's not! Alexei Shirov in the prologue. "For serious 1.d4 and Slav players, this book is indispensable. It's simply excellent." Carsten Hansen, ChessCafe. "There are not many books around players of this caliber, nor are there many that offer so much new material." GM Glenn Flear, Yearbook. "Volumes of this kind are not found very often and this will be the standard for the Chebanenko for the next years." Bill McGeary, ChessVille. "The amount of new analysis is impressive." James Vigus, author of "Play the Slav".
