Christof Sielecki is an International Master from Germany. He has been teaching and training chess for many years, and runs an extremely popular YouTube channel called ChessExplained.
"Sieleckis's repertoire is sound and annoying. Exactly the sort of
thing that will make many an opponent groan."--Glenn Flear,
Grandmaster and author of 'Starting Out: the Open Games'
'IM Sielecki has poured an insane amount of time and effort into
crafting this White repertoire, focusing for the most part on lines
that are used by top GMs but that lie outside of the main streams
of opening theory. Because the coverage of every option is so
extensive, purchasing 'Keep it Simple: 1.e4' really is like buying
a set of repertoire books. In addition, Sielecki repeatedly points
out popular alternative lines that you can study if you want to
branch out on your own. If you are an ambitious player related 1500
or higher, and you'd like to round out a serious, bulletproof 1.e4
repertoire suitable for employment up to the titled player level,
and you're ready to squeeze your opponent when the position calls
for squeezing and to blitz him when it calls for a lightning
strike, you simply can't lose here."--Timothy McGrew, National
Master
"Solid and easy to learn!"--Elburg Chess Reviews
"An opening repertoire based on simple and straightforward lines
that pack some poison (..) Sielecki has been careful not to
overwhelm the reader with too much analysis."--John Donaldson,
International Master
"An excellent book that delivers exactly what the title states: A
relatively simple (700+ variations!), solid and straightforward
repertoire. Many 1500+ players will be very happy that this
repertoire is now available."--Han Schut, National Master
