Daily Calculation Exercises - Day 43 | Grand Prix Attack
In the Titled Tuesday Tourney I played with International Master Nikolai Vlassov. I played the Grand Prix Attack against his sicilian defense and I got a great attack against the king. I created 11 exercises from the game:
How could white finish the attack?
I prevented this treat:
How can white continue?
How can white give a checkmate in 2 moves?
Another checkmate in 2 moves?
How can white continue the attack?
How can white give a checkmate in 3 moves?
There are 2 ways for a quick finish. Please find them both and then check the solutions of the next 2 exrcises:
How to win?
How to give a checkmate in 4 moves?
I wish you enjoyed the exercises. Please use the patterns in your games!
I use and recommend these courses. Please check them. They may help you to go to the next level in your chess.

If you would like to improve your calculation I suggest you 2 great courses:
Tactics Ninja: Something unbelievable and funny. The editor Lily, being 1,200 on chess.com, raised her online rating by 100 points in 2 weeks, just by looking through the videos of this course when she was editing them.
Mating Matador: Mastering mating patterns is the next step to get better at tactics and become a dangerous attacker. It often bridges the gap between a strong attack against the opponent's King and victory. So once you become better at sniffing checkmates, your attacking skills naturally improve.
