Dear Chess Friends!

Thank you for attending my previous webinar where I conducted a Simul. I really appreciate that you came, played and watched. The score was 7:0 (I won all games), but on some of them my opponents had real chances at least to equalize the position and may be draw the game then. The next Simul will be in a few weeks.

As for this week, I’m going to conduct a webinar about the positional play – Webinar 26. “Knight vs Bishop”. You know usually bishops are better than knights because of their long reach and I’m going to show how to play with knight against bishop in the middlegame and endgame.

I will explain the cases when knight is stronger than bishop and then we’ll analyze classical games played by GMs to illustrate these situations:

  • Bobby Fischer – Julio Bolbochan
  • Mikhail Botvinnik – Leonid Stein
  • Alexander Alekhine – Savielly Tartakower

If you want to learn how to play with a knight vs bishop, understand basic principles and concepts and clearly define whether to trade your bishop for a knight or not, you should definitely attend this webinar!

The webinar starts on Sunday (29th of March) at 10 a.m. (EDT), 2 p.m. (GMT), 5 p.m. (Moscow time). This webinar is free.

Please, don’t forget to register in advance and reserve your spot in case of high number of attendees. 5 participants who register for the webinar first will be able to use a microphone.

Best Regards,

Experienced chess coach specializing in tactics and openings. An author of educational chess courses on different learning platforms.

I'm 34. I live in Russia, Novosibirsk. I learned to play chess when I was 5. I regularly won prizes at Novosibirsk region Championship and Siberia Chess Championship among juniors. I'm a champion of Novosibirsk City Chess Club at 2002 and a champion of Novosibirsk at 2019.


I got Master's Degree in Economics at Novosibirsk State University and also played for its chess team.


Today I am focusing on teaching chess online and offline. The reason why I do this is because I feel happy when see how my students achieve success.

 

I teach juniors since 2002. Almost all of my students were ranked. Some of them got prizes at Novosibirsk region Championship.
I also work with adults.

 

I will teach you how to find tactical strikes in certain position types and how to classify them. I can help you to improve you calculational ability. I also teach you chess openings and I believe you know how important they are. According to the statistics right-playing of the opening makes from 30 to 60% of your success (the exact number depends on your level).
