Burgess book: "Winning With the Smith-Morra Gambit" seems to be out of print. Is there any other good book on the gambit?

'The Modern Morra Gambit: A Dynamic Weapon Against the Sicilian' by Hannes Langrock (published by Russell Enterprises 15 March 2007) is supposed to be out, although you might experience problems obtaining a copy. I keep checking with Amazon, but they haven't yet got it in stock.

I have both "The Modern Morra Gambit" by Hannes Langrock and "Morra Gambit" by Jozsef Palkovi.

The latter takes some time getting into but is worth the effort and after a few mishaps has got me some got results here.

Both are available from www.chessdirect.co.uk who give 10% discount for any order of 2 or more books.

I have this book.
Essential for the SMG specialist. It explains all the key moves & variations in a very down-to-earth way, as well as the defences & sidelines.

It helps you understand the opening, rather than just bashing-out the moves regardless of what black is up to, as so many (even 2000+ players) seem to fall victim to.

Buy it.

You can order it from the BCM shop in Baker St (or go there in person) Mr Tebb.

Oh, they (amazon.com) did have it earlier today. I placed an order. Maybe I'll have to wait forever but.....
