Lately, for a change of pace I've been going back to basics. The gritty, solid, heavily structured Classical King Pawn games. The style of play that I (and maybe you too) got pummeled with in my formative years. The all-or-nothing lines. Those games that make you curl in the foetal position in dread and want to avoid at all cost. The style where you learned chess fundamentals the hard way and probably ditched the moment you met the Hypermoderns. This is one such time I went back to the Old School.
