Strategic thinking for just $10 a session – last day at this price!
Dear Chess Friends!
Before I dive into today’s topic, I wanted to quickly let you know that the price for my new Master Game Planning in Chess course goes up tomorrow.
Right now, you can still join for $129 total, or $49/month for 3 months. That works out to just $10.75 per 90-minute live session — with recordings, exercises, and lifetime access included. It's one of the most accessible ways to get structured, strategic training with an experience chess coach — and I want to make sure you don’t miss it.
Now let’s talk about why this course exists. I recently noticed that most chess training, whether it comes from books, videos, or online courses, focuses on the sharp, tactical side of the game.
We’re taught how to trap our opponent in 12 moves, how to memorize openings, how to calculate tactics. And while that’s all useful, it leaves a massive gap in your development as a player. Because tactics don’t always come. And when they don’t, what’s your plan?
What happens when you reach a position where nothing obvious is happening — no tactics, no clear threats, just a quiet middlegame?
After years of coaching experience, I see that this is when the uncertainty begins. You make a normal move. Then another. You’re not losing, but you’re not improving either. And somewhere along the way, your opponent starts gaining space, activity, and control. The initiative slowly slips away because you didn’t have a plan. And that’s not your fault. It’s just something most players were never taught.
That’s exactly why I created Master Game Planning in Chess — a course entirely focused on helping you think more clearly in real, practical positions. It’s not about flashy tactics or memorized lines. It’s about learning how to evaluate positions, identify long-term imbalances, and create realistic, flexible plans that actually lead somewhere.
In short: it’s about thinking like a strong player.
We’ll work together over 12 live sessions, starting September 19. Every Friday at 5 PM EDT, we’ll dive into a core concept — from evaluating pawn structures, to switching plans midgame, to understanding how your opponent thinks (and how to stop them). You’ll also get access to recordings, homework, and lifetime review material, so you can revisit it all on your own time.
And again — if you join today, you’ll still get the full course for just $129, or $49/month. Tomorrow, the price rises to $149 or $59/month.
If you’ve ever felt lost in quiet positions — this course was built for you.
Reserve your spot now:
Let’s turn drifting into direction. Let’s make your thinking process your biggest strength.
See you in class,
FM Viktor Neustroev
