Colle-Zukertort Variation Video

When many people read "Colle System" they think of the "Colle-Koltanowski" [with the moves d4,Nf3,e3,Bd3,c3. Often the "other" Colle system is forgotten, the "Colle-Zukertort." [d4,Nf3,e3,Bd3,b3]

I have recently made a video illustrating this system for anyone who wants to become a bit more familiar with it. It isn't particularly polished, and I had to live with the 10-minute YouTube limit, but if you want to get a feel for how the C-Z is "supposed to work," you can check it out: Zukertort Youtube Video

If your speakers are lackluster, the video's audio may have been hard to make out.

I've amp'd up the volume and re-posted as a separate video. I will remove the first in a few days:

Thanks! I'll give it a look soon.

I just went through it and it has increased my understanding of that system. I'll probably be purchasing your book soon!

Ha ha,

Hmm...I didn't intend for my books to be turned against the C-Z...maybe I should stop writing :) I am hoping to build up the C-Z, not tank it!

Thanks :)

Great!

I am planning on posting a more advanced version discussing some particular tactics and plans in the game. Youtube has a 10 minute video, so I had to stick with the very general ideas...and rush at the end where Black resigned.

BTW, everyone is welcome to visit the Zukertort player forum. Be warned, we might try to convert you.
