The Key to Chess Success? Knowing When to Change Plans

Dear Chess Friends!

A well-structured plan is essential in chess, but you also need to know when and how to change that plan. In almost every game, players face moments when the original strategy turns out to be ineffective or their opponent’s response forces a shift in approach. Adapting strategically can mean the difference between victory and defeat.

Join me for the "Change of Plan" workshop, where together we will learn how to recognize when a plan should be abandoned, adjusted, or redirected. You’ll learn how top players modify their strategies mid-game to outmaneuver opponents and maximize their chances of success.

🗓 Date: 04/06
⏰ Time: 11 a.m. EDT, 4 p.m. UK time, 5 p.m. CET 

During this session, you’ll learn:

• The different types of plan changes: switching flanks, adjusting attack targets, and transitioning
• Key reasons for changing plans and how to recognize when your current strategy is no longer optimal
• Practical examples from master games that demonstrate effective plan shifts
• How to apply these concepts in your own games to improve decision-making under pressure.

Why should you attend?​
It's wrong to think that chess is just about making good moves. It's about making the right moves at the right time. Understanding when to change the direction of your game can give you a huge competitive edge and turn difficult positions into winning ones.
