The Caro-Kann series is complete!

The Caro-Kann series is complete. 22 videos total, covering every variation for black and for white. I tried to go into much more detail than in the original Caro-Kann series from 2018. Let me know what you think!

I have created a Caro-Kann repertoire for black, and an Anti Caro-Kann repertoire for white. Both are available as annotated PGN files. In the same file, you will also find a full theoretical Caro-Kann PGN that covers everything, not just the repertoires. The repertoire for black recommends the Gurgenidze against Nc3, and Bf5 against the Advance. The repertoire for white is based on Nc3, and it covers all of black's possible responses.

All books on the Caro-Kann, for both black and white are listed here. You can filter the books by opening, color, and first move, in case you need recommendations against other openings.
But, if you want my recommendations, my favorite books on the Caro-Kann are Bologan's Caro-Kann, Schandorff's 2021 repertoire, and Jovanka Houska's 2015 repertoire. In my reviews, you can find exactly what each book recommends.

Here are all the variations covered in the playlist:
