48 Tactical Puzzles from a Great Swashbuckler
During her career, Judit Polgar beat 12 World Champions.
Those included Carlsen, Kasparov, Karpov, Kramnik and Anand…
But what makes that achievement even more special is the way she achieved it.
You see, Judit wasn’t one for grinding out small advantages. No, she was a swashbuckler who loved to attack.
And this FREE course is a celebration of that.
It’s a collection of 48 tactical puzzles from her early games.
Those games were played between 1986 to 1991. So, from the moment she burst on the chess scene, to her becoming the world’s youngest ever Grandmaster and a top 100 player.
It’s an ideal introduction to her career. Or, if you’re already a Judit fan, a joyful walk down Memory Lane.
A different approach to presenting puzzles
One more thing: the puzzles are presented in an interesting and novel way.
Rather than just showing you the position, and asking you to solve it, all the variations are fully annotated and most exercises are prefaced with a positional discussion.
That way, you get a feel for the position before you start thinking about concrete candidate moves. So you’re analyzing the way you would analyze during your own games.
And, because the positions are grouped by era, rather than tactical theme, you have to solve the problem properly, rather than relying on clues.
