In
Game Changer,
Grandmaster Matthew Sadler and
International Master Natasha Regan analyze AlphaZero’s games with its toughest competitor - Stockfish - and explain the amazing takeaways from these historic games.
Although originally only 10 games were released to the public, GM Sadler and IM Regan gained access to
over 200 more for this project - unlocking a treasure trove of amazing insights that the world’s top players are using to improve their games.
In this new 2021 video course on Chessable, you’ll learn how AlphaZero was developed,
how it ‘thinks’ and evaluates positions, and how it differs from traditional chess engines like Stockfish and Komodo.
But more importantly for your game, you’ll learn its incredible “human-like” techniques executed at superhuman level. Through 200 trainable lines -
more than 25% more than the original version - you’ll learn how to:
♜
Attack the enemy king in a re-imagined way: Early rook pawn advances, total domination over square colors, and material sacrifices just to open up the position and allow the pieces to checkmate the enemy king: AlphaZero’s “straight-to-the-point” style will change the way you plan your attacks
♜
Build outposts on a whole new level: There are outposts, and then there are AlphaZero outposts! See how AlphaZero engineers outposts to give queen-like power to even the most minor of pieces
♜
Activate your pieces into hyperdrive: Learn how to sacrifice a pawn - or two - or three - to crack the position wide open and let your active pieces control the board
♜
Approach the opening like a superhuman: AlphaZero is very particular about its openings - it only plays the best of the best, and how it approaches them has led to new advancements in opening theory. Learn what openings work best and how to play them in a way that will quickly take your opponents out of preparation
