Can You Spot the Wrong Move?

Dear Chess Friends!

We’re used to looking for the best move — the most precise calculation, the winning tactic, the correct continuation. But in this Sunday’s interactive workshop, I’ll challenge you to look at the board from a different angle:

Can you find the move that looks logical… but actually loses?

This new session is called “Find a Wrong Move,” and it’s structured as a quiz. You’ll be presented with real positions — many based on practical games — and asked to spot which tempting or “natural” move leads to trouble. Then we’ll work through why, and what the better alternative is.

🗓 Date: 08/24
Time: 11 a.m. EDT, 4 p.m. UK time, 5 p.m. CET 

In this special format, you will:

  • Practice identifying tactical traps hiding behind normal-looking moves
  • Learn to spot logical errors before they happen — not after
  • Train your pattern recognition and calculation under light pressure
  • Discover how strategy and tactics are often connected in subtle ways
  • See real examples of mistakes from club players and world champions

Why should you attend?​
Chess isn’t just about seeing the best move. It’s also about avoiding the worst one. Even strong players fall into well-disguised tactical traps. This session will help sharpen your vigilance and improve your ability to punish or avoid hidden mistakes.
