Would You Recognize Checkmate If It Stared You In The Face?

Build Up Your Ability To Recognize Checkmates Instantly
The speed at which one can zero-in on a winning variation — and accurately execute it — is what sets masters apart from amateurs. And at the core of speed is pattern recognition.
Finding the solution becomes easier when you’ve seen a similar idea or position before.
In Checkmate Puzzles For Beginners, Jordan serves you a collection of 282 handcrafted exercises to build up your “mental database” of mating patterns and combinations.
The course has nine instructive chapters with mates-in-one up to mates-in-four… then tests your progress with a chapter of mixed checkmates.
They were all created by the author himself. But unlike other studies and compositions, Jordan went the extra mile to ensure these positions look and feel like the real deal.
This way, the checkmating skills you develop inside easily transfer to your over-the-board games.
Don’t take our word for it though…
