Road to the Grandmaster title - 100 basic checkmate patterns

Road to the Grandmaster title - 100 basic checkmate patterns

Today I reviewed 100 basic checkmates to continue my daily training.  I streamed the training on my channel at https://www.twitch.tv/attilaturzo 

I had 3 coaching sessions today. In the morning We studied with Jan from Prague.  I gave him a position where he needed to find the way to the victory without looking on the board. 

I think blindfold exercises can help a lot to improve your calculation and visualization skills.

I suggest you also to solve the puzzle in your mind.

White has pawns on c4 and b5, King is on d4. Black has a b6 pawn and a king on e6.

White to move and win. After the first white move please give 2 options for black and write down until white wins.

I give a few other easier exercises if you want to improve your blindfold chess.

1. Name the colors of the following squares: e4, f7, d6, b3, d8, h2, a8

2. Name all of the squares of the diagonal a2-g8

You can review a few checkmate patterns on the board:
