Hello guys! When I prepare some openings and strategy for my students almost everyone tell me: "I need to attack!". Children love tactics, very fast attack and glorious victory. Yes, that is true. Almost everyone enojoy quick victory with some combinations like in Shirov's or Tal's games. Because of that many students think that when you attack you have to go forward. When I create some examples they always looking for such a moves, when they go forward - for example go from rank number 4 to rank number 6 when they play as white. Be careful. When you attack sometimes you have to prepare counterplay and go backward and then push. Have a look! We have much more examples linked to this idea. I prepare three and I hope you now understand, that sometimes if you want to go forward you have to first go back!

I prepare some materials about improving positional skills. Frankly I just use the method from Mark Dvoretsky's books called positional pictures. Have a look. First of all we have to find an appropriate position from game. Secondly we have to start form the moment when someone plays very creative or use a new idea, which we do not really comprehend. Next we have to write a commentary and write the move order which was played in the game. Then we have to end the exercise. Finally if we gather many examples we could repeat everything before tournament. Too be honest, examples should be short. It is enoughif you find the right position with new or creative idea! I use only 3 methods in my training: I watch as many games of 2700+ as I could. I collect my postional pictures. I play as many blitz, rapid and classic games as I could. The method is slow but it is very powerful if you do it constantly and you want to achieve a goal in a long period of time. I start in 2012 when I have 2150 ELO. In 2017 I achieve FIDE Master title and in 2019 2400+ in rapid and blitz sections and 2370 in classical games. I combine all together just to repeat every exercise linked to positional pictures once again: EASY IMPROVE YOUR POSITIONAL SKILLS #1 EASY IMPROVE YOUR POSITIONAL SKILLS #2 EASY IMPROVE YOUR POSITIONAL SKILLS #3 EASY IMPROVE YOUR POSITIONAL SKILLS #4 EASY IMPROVE YOUR POSITIONAL SKILLS #5 EASY IMPROVE YOUR POSITIONAL SKILLS #6 EASY IMPROVE YOUR POSITIONAL SKILLS #7 EASY IMPROVE YOUR POSITIONAL SKILLS #8 EASY IMPROVE YOUR POSITIONAL SKILLS #9 EASY IMPROVE YOUR POSITIONAL SKILLS #10 ANOTHER SERIES OF ARTICLES: POWERFUL PIECES (6 charpters) HOW TO WIN AGAINST GRANDMASTER?

TRAPS AND TRICKS 1. Deadly Trap in Budapest gambit ( brilliant bishop sacrifice !!) BUDAPEST GAMBIT TRAP * Use Budapest gambit trap for a quick win. This is a very sound gambit against d4. It’s the sharp gambit but if you treat this gambit carefully then you are safe. * Strong players use this gambit against beginners and club players for quick results. * Budapest gambit trap is one of the traps which d4 players should prepare, because if white gets into this trap then he needs to resign within 10 moves. * In give trap black's double bishop and a knight sacrifice forces Black's king in a mating net .

Legal trap * The Legal Trap is one of the more common traps that any chess player will come across. This is because it is found in a very common opening and none of the moves made by black look terribly bad on the surface. * As we can see though, black will have to make a choice to take the bait from white and capture the queen, losing the game, or instead go down in material and fight on to see another day. * Anytime a player exposes his queen, it is really hard for the other player not to take it. That is why this trap works so well. Also if they don’t take the bait, you are still in a great position. Checkout here : https://youtu.be/pLVVIToTcFA 6. Elephant trap in Queen's gambit * The Elephant Trap derives from the Queen’s Gambit Declined lines. Black defends the Queens Gambit by simply developing his pawn to e6, keeping the tension on the d5 pawn. White continues to develop his knight and apply even more pressure. * Black then starts to set the elephant trap by developing his own knight to f6, baiting the white bishop to come to f5, pinning the knight down to the queen. Black simply brings his own knight to d7. * At first glance, this move looks like a mistake by black. If white sees this and falls for the trap, though, it will be a huge mistake. * Black can simply sacrifice his own queen with the forced moves that will win back white’s queen and put black in a dominating position. Checkout here : https://youtu.be/bwHI_2AsKRs 7. Rubenstein trap ( trapping queen ) * The Rubinstein Trap is a chess opening trap in the Queen's Gambit Declined, Orthodox Defense. * Black loses a pawn after Nxd5 due to the threat of his queen being trapped on the back rank by White's Bc7. Checkout here : https://youtu.be/5qSFuO4qYBA 8. Bobby's trap in Sicilian defense ( brilliant bishop sacrifice !!) * Bobby Fischer was the first chess player to introduce this trap hence it's name " Bobby's trap ". This trap is played in Sicilian defence as white against black. * Starting with the king pawn opening for white versus the sicilian defense from black, white places his light square bishop on b3 and dares black to move his knight to a5. If black refuses, white still has a solid setup and a good game ahead. Checkout here : https://youtu.be/hAMaH4TNi_s 9. Deadliest bishop pair and rarest queen's sacrifice !! A brilliant and most rarest queen sacrifice which leads double bishop checkmate in all variations. I found this bishop pair to be deadliest one. What you think guys ?😊 Comment below. Check out here : https://youtu.be/N0l0Di_Pt9Y 10. All pieces hanging !! ( Siegfried's Brilliancy will blow your mind ) Siegfried Nadel played a 14 move brilliant game which will surely blow your mind 🔥 . All pieces are hanging but his opponent did'nt dare to capture even a single of them ( cause all variations will lead to Checkmate ) Even Queen hunged for 4 moves and on 5th move it delivered checkmate .
