Dear Chess Friends!

There are moments in a game when your opponent isn’t just worse — they’re stuck. Their king has no flight squares. Their pieces are tangled up. And suddenly, one precise move brings the whole position crashing down.

That’s the kind of chess we’ll study this Sunday. Our next workshop is all about Blocking Combinations — tactical ideas that strike when your opponent’s own position becomes their downfall. We’ll look at the moments when their king can’t escape, their pieces are overloaded, and you can use discovered attacks, sacrifices, and pins to finish the game on the spot.

🗓 Date: 11/16
Time: 11 a.m. EST, 3 p.m. UK time, 4 p.m. CET

In this session, you’ll learn:

  • Identify crowded positions that are vulnerable to tactical punishment
  • Spot classic ideas like smothered mates, overloaded defenders, and f7/f2 tricks
  • Use piece coordination and timing to trap and destroy even stronger armies

Why should you attend?​
These are not just spectacular tactics — they’re practical tools you can use in your games, especially when your opponent underestimates the dangers of a cramped position.
