This DVD is simply amazing! A top notch presentation of four leading US Champions battling it out in a 10 minute per side speed chess match. Watch as the players prepare, the clocks start, and the battle begins. Both players carefully balance time management, agression, positional maneuvering, and blitz psychology to outplay each other. Grandmaster Maurice Ashley's colorful and energetic narration compliments a remarkably professional presentation cycling between views of the players, the boards, clocks, and a 2D analysis.

This chess DVD is great for all levels of players. Beginners will enjoy the excitement and entertainment of blitz chess. Experienced players will appreciate the complexity and power of grandmaster chess. Even non chess players will feel the excitement of blitz chess and be inspired. This DVD is amazing... no doubt a leading chess movie release.

The four players are Shabalov, Benjamin, Christiansen, and the 2005 reigning US chess champion 17-year-old Hikaru Nakamura.
