Practise the Queen's Gambit Declined

The Queen's Gambit Declined (1.d4 d5 2.c4 e6) is Black's classical, rock-solid answer to the Queen's Gambit. Play Black's moves of the line from memory — 1. d4 d5 2. c4 e6 — and the trainer plays White's replies; "Play the other side" turns it around.

"Drill all" adds the 97 named lines that continue it, such as Queen's Gambit Declined: Queen's Knight Variation, Queen's Gambit Declined: Normal Defense, Queen's Gambit Declined: Modern Variation, Semi-Slav Defense: Accelerated Move Order, Tarrasch Defense, Queen's Gambit Declined: Harrwitz Attack, Queen's Gambit Declined: Tarrasch Defense, Pseudo-Tarrasch, Tarrasch Defense: Symmetrical Variation.
