Webinar 8. Outpost on the Open or Semi-Open File
Dear Chess Friends!
I’m glad to welcome you to my 8th chess webinar “Outpost on the Open or Semi-Open File”! I’m going to show what you should do create an outpost to prevent any opponent’s activity on the open file. We’ll also discuss the benefits or having an outpost. And what is more important I’ll explain when and which piece can become an outpost.
The webinar starts on Sunday at 10 a.m. (EDT), 3 p.m. (GMT), 5 p.m. (Moscow time). This webinar is free.

This is our Webinar Plan:
- What “outpost” means
- Which piece can become (occupy) an outpost depending on the file
- Nimzowitsch examples how to transform the advantage of an outpost
- Game fragment analysis. Evgeni Vasiukov – Ratmir Kholmov
- Game fragment analysis. Tigran Petrosian – Herman Pilnik
- Questions & Answers
What to expect from the webinar?
I’m going to conduct this webinar as a group and interactive chess lesson. I prepared questions and exercises for you and I want you to suggest the moves, plans and share your ideas on the webinar.
Why group lessons are important?
I’m studying and teaching chess for many years and I’m absolutely sure that the key to success in chess depends on proper training methods. That’s why I have no doubts that a training program for almost any student should consist of:
- Individual lessons (where the coach tries to explain and correct mistakes that the student makes)
- Puzzles solving (can be part of the lesson or a homework)
- Group lessons (where students may learn openings and typical plans that can be applied in certain types of positions. Group lessons also help to analyze common mistakes that many students make. And of course, group lessons increase competition between students and stimulate them to get ahead of each other!)
- Tournament games (why not online games? Because, only tournament games keep you concentrated from the beginning to the very end of the game. This is where you can improve)
See you on the webinar!
