Take the First Step to Grandmaster Thinking:
Know What Moves to Consider First
One of the biggest differences between grandmasters and club players: the GMs know where their eyes belong.
Sure, forcing moves like checks and captures are a good place to start. But what happens when you don’t have any? Or if none of them work?
In this
free sample of
Grandmaster Training: Advanced Chess Fundamentals, you’ll learn how to find candidate moves when there are no obvious or forcing ones to consider.
Grandmaster Aleksandr Rakhamanov, a regular on FIDE’s list of the 100 players in the world, shows you how to improve your pieces in positionally sound and blunder-free ways.
You’ll learn and practice how to:
♜
Apply the inverse piece order method. This simple method will teach you which of your pieces to examine first when you have no forcing moves
♜
Improve your position without giving anything to your opponent. Practice the tactical calculation required to carry out your strategic goals, avoiding blunders and stopping counterplay
♜
How square control dictates where the pieces should go. Find good squares for your pieces by understanding which squares are the most important and why
GM Rakhmanov hammers the step-by-step thought process in every exercise, just as he does in the main course. The point: not just to learn these ideas, but to
drill them into your brain so they become your
habits over the board.
