In my last learning article I showed, how great Capablanca managed to make his opponent`s bishop "bad". Today we see a position, where the bad bishop already exists. Euwe had made an opening mistake and now Aljechin came up with an easy plan: " E...
Capablanca shows just how to make use of a slight advantage. A more active rook, a closer-situated king, it all adds up to the forced win of a pawn. And once he is a pawn ahead, the win is easy for him. (notes & title by irving chernev)

Olafsson's play in this game is simple and elegant. He lures his opponent into winning the exchange, and then exploits the weaknesses he has left behind. When he obtains two connected passed pawns, their power is unstoppable.
In this classic game played in 1970, Italian International Master Stefano Tatai (1938-) plays with abandon and talent to reach the enemy King. When the scope of a Bishop is cut, other dangerous lines are opened.
A great game by Botvinnik, as he shows just how powerful a knight can be in the endgame. You have to notice his elegant sacrfice of the exchange, followed by his knight dancing rings around his opponent's rook. (notes & title by irving chern...
