Two-Time Olympiad Gold Medalist Will
Transform You Into The “Unbeatable” Underdog
Chess Players Respect

Picture this:

You’re up against the top seeded player in the tournament.

Riding the high from last round’s win and confident in his 2500-rating, he pushes 1.e4 with aggressive intentions.

Yet after only 25 precise and confident moves by you, he has hit a brick wall while your position remains airtight. Irritated, he keeps pressing and pressing and pressing… and then it happened!

The strongest player in the field snapped and blundered… allowing you — an underdog by 500 rating points — to score an upset of a lifetime!

Hard to believe? Perhaps.

But you need not believe anything just yet. All we ask is that you refrain from disbelieving while Grandmaster Sam Shankland shows you the proof.

Sam is a top-30 grandmaster turned superstar chess author. He’s the 2018 US Chess Champion… a two-time Olympiad gold medalist… and the record-setting winner of Prague Masters 2021, Biel Masters Open 2016, and other top tournaments.

Today, Sam gives you…

A Complete 1.e4 e5 Repertoire For Black
That Equalizes And Stands Toe-To-Toe
Against The Toughest Opposition

Lifetime Repertoires: Berlin Defense is tailored for the smart player who — not only recognizes “safety first” as a perfectly legit strategy — but also believes that it’s easier to win from an equal position than a losing one.

At its core is the Berlin Defense — arguably the most “unbeatable” response to 1.e4.

It was Vladimir Kramnik’s choice when he dethroned 13th World Champion Garry Kasparov. Sergey Karjakin also played the Berlin Defense in the 2016 World Chess Championship… tilting the ice-cold Magnus Carlsen into playing shaky openings and losing Game 8.

But it’s not just the top contenders who enjoy amazing results with the Berlin Defense.

If you fire up your favorite chess database software, you’ll find untitled underdogs holding their own against players rated 100… 300… 500 points higher. (Some even managed to beat their illustrious 2600-grandmaster opponents!)

The Berlin Defense starts with 1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bb5 Nf6. And the course’s 498 trainable variations and 11 hours of videowill teach you how to play, not just this setup, but an arsenal of 1.e4 e5 “equalizers” from Sam’s opening lab.

Here’s what you’ll learn:

💪 How to beat the Italian Game to the punch and blow up the enemy center, while your pieces reach their best squares with maximum efficiency.

💪 An “exchanging combination” which dulls the sharp flavor of the Scotch… weighing down White with passive minor pieces while your rooks rampage across the board.

💪 A cutting-edge computer idea against the Four Knights. Take the fight out of the opponent’s aggressive bishop, and deal long-term damage to their pawns.

💪 How to outsmart the Vienna Gambit with the “reversed Berlin endgame,” and secure a strategically winning structure along with the bishop pair.

💪 The “unprincipled” 6th move that sucks the energy out of the Evans Gambit, and shatters White’s queenside formation.

💪 How to turn the King’s Gambit on its head. Watch the enemy king anxiously brace himself for your inevitable pawn storm, while your VIP is safe and sound on the queenside.

💪 And… Anti Anti-Berlin lines which leave White without a choice but to force a draw themselves or endure a sustained attack.

Sam also devotes a chapter to the notorious Berlin Endgame, which you’ll reach in the majority of games.

Neural network chess engines revolutionized how professionals play this endgame, making pre-2019 Berlin Defense repertoires obsolete. But you need not worry about that, because Sam lays down the latest “secrets” on chapter 12.

Here’s a sneak peek:

💪 The most reliable follow-up to the Berlin Endgame — instantly disarms enemy tricks and traps long before they become a problem.

💪 When to welcome the exchange of dark-squared bishops. Time this right and White’s only trump card becomes totally useless.

💪 Why White must play Bc1-f4 in the Berlin Endgame, and how to whip up serious winning chances if the first player ignores this move.

💪 PLUS many more!

Best part?

Sam shows you the must-know tactical ideas, positional themes, and strategic goals in behind the moves… while the variations are laid out to steadily build your mastery of the Berlin Defense, even if you only have 30 minutes a day.
