Are you one of those e4-players who absolutely hate to face the
French Defence? And when it occurs, do you get the feeling that
black has all the fun, whether he's pressuring your d-pawn,
breaking down your pawn centre, rounding up your a-pawn or boring
you to tears with the Rubinstein? - Then the Reti Gambit may be the
solution for you too! After having written two popular books on the
King's Gambit for white (The King's Gambit for the Creative
Aggressor in 1998 and The Fascinating King's Gambit in 2004/5)
Thomas Johansson devotes his third chess opening book to a little
known gambit that definitely spices up the French Defence! I can't
guarantee that white always gets an advantage in the RG - after
all, even the theoretical main lines after 2.d4 tend to end up
equal after about 20 moves - but the positions that arise are
usually so interesting and fun that once you've learned how to play
it, I think you will soon be looking forward to your next encounter
with the French Defence!
