Chess Openings: Learn to Play the Colle System!
In today’s chess opening video, we cover how to play the Colle System, also called the Zukertort System, which is one of the strongest chess opening setups white can play. The Colle System is very similar to the London System, the difference being our dark squared bishop. In the London System, we immediately throw our bishop into the action, while with the Colle System, we hold that bishop back and keep it as a potential attacking piece. Why is it called the Colle System, and not the Colle Opening? With chess openings, there is a ton of reading and reacting. Examples of this include chess openings for white such as the Evan’s Gambit, Scotch Gambit, Italian Game, Bishop’s Opening, Vienna Game, and the list goes on. With chess openings such as these, we make a move, and then watch what our opponent will play. For example, if we play e4, we have to watch out for the French Defense, Caro-Kann Defense, Sicilian Defense, etc. How we play changes a ton based off of what our opponent does. However, with a chess opening system, we don’t really care what our opponent plays. Examples of this include the Hippopotamus Defense, Crab Opening, London System, and Colle System! With the Colle System, we form a pawn pyramid, naturally develop our pieces, and achieve a solid middlegame position that is hard to beat. The Colle System is a good chess opening option for beginner chess players and intermediate chess players as it has good chess opening strategy, chess opening ideas, chess opening moves, and chess opening principles. In addition, there is little memorizing of lines and variations in the Colle System, which makes it extremely easy to learn. The Colle System can help you learn how to play chess at a high level, and how to win games fast. We hope you d4 players enjoy learning how to play the Colle System!
