Raf "CraftyRaf" Mesotten and
International Master Andras Toth's new course teaches you how to sidestep hidden traps... punish early blunders... and bring the full point home before the opening is over.
Mesotten and Toth rose to Chessable fame thanks — in no small part — to their newbie-friendly courses. All of which help ambitious students
perfect the fundamentals.
In their latest course, the duo fine-tunes your tactical awareness and "sense of danger," especially in the opening.
Common Opening Traps And Blunders 1.e4: Part 2 drills the most critical 1.e4 traps and blunders into your game, turning you into...
That Razor-Sharp Tactician
Capable Of Quick Kills And
Shocking Miniatures
Here's one of the
biggest mistakes club players make when studying openings:
They obsess about grandmaster-level variations.
You know, the proper chess stuff seen in top tournaments. But while "copying" the world's best is good for one's chess...
Games between non-masters is anything but proper. Inaccuracies will be played. Blunders will be made. And traps will be sprung. All in a span of 12 club-level moves or less.
If you know
only the tournament-tested and engine-approved variations, you might miss an easy win... or fall for a devious trick, which could've been avoided with a little know-how.
Common Opening Traps And Blunders 1.e4: Part 2 bridges that gap!
In the course, Mesotten and Toth show you the dubious moves, the most common traps to avoid, and the blunders to pounce on after 1.e4.
So when game-time comes, you'll be ready to capitalize on those hidden opportunities in the opening... and convert them into a convincing victory.
Part one of the series dealt with the Italian Game, Scotch Opening, and other 1.e4 e5 lines. Inside part two, you'll get:
💣 More than 250 MoveTrainer® puzzles which infuse the must-know traps and tactics into your memory.
💣 Over 3 hours of video of IM Andras Toth analyzing the positional elements leading to the tactics. Toth is a top chess educator and a "breakout" author, known for his clarity of instruction. So after watching his breakdowns, you too will start looking at the board with the eyes of a dangerous tactician.
💣 Major openings covered, including the Ruy Lopez, Petrov and Philidor Defense. PLUS, tricky club-favorite sidelines like the King's Gambit, Pirc Defense, Latvian Gambit, and many more.
Winning in chess is so much easier, when you know the common traps and blunders in your opening like the back of your hand. See for yourself when you...
