Modern Classics
by Dorian Rogozenco

Top trainers, such as the author Grandmaster Dorian Rogozenco, strongly recommend regular study of well-explained classical games to improve your understanding of chess in the long term. These games are a part of chess culture that every aspiring chess player or chess enthusiast should know. The new video course ‘Modern Classics’ by former German national coach Dorian Rogozenco, is a continuation of his course ‘Chess Classics - Games you need to know’. It presents 33 famous games from modern chess history - from 1935 to 1999, played by world champions and top grandmasters. In addition, the course includes a video about a remarkable legacy of the 9th World Champion Tigran Petrosian - the positional quality sacrifice.

Each chapter contains the video presentation of the game in CB-Books format plus an introductory text with background information, also a diagram with a critical position, and a game-replayer - in which the user can view the variations from the video and analyse them with an engine. With this carefully and competently structured course, you can work on your understanding of chess, or simply enjoy the games of the great masters!

Customer Service Beyond Expectation

First of all, the chess set is beautiful. I gave it to my son two Christmases ago and he plays it constantly. He is very proud of it. So...when our dog captured the pawn and chewed it, my son was bummed. I contacted Chess Central and they said that they would work on it. I totally forgot about it and figured I'd never hear back. Today, guess what arrived in the mail? The black pawn! My son actually did a little jig. Thank you, ChessCentral.

This is by far the most impressive chess set I've ever seen!!

Now you have to know up front when buying online I generally look at the three star and lower reviews, so I ordered this set with a lot of skepticism, just sure something was going to be FUBAR,...... Boy was I wrong!! I got the set and carefully un-packed it and was just amazed. It is PERFECT!! Seems that all the every flaw that had been complained about in the three star and less reviews had been addressed by the manufacturer!! So being eager to show it off and being a good ole boy, I invite my buddies over and we all set out on the porch {now that the weather is finally getting nice out} and play from noon until sunset. I enjoy all the compliments this beautiful the set gets, and everyone loves to play on it!!

I've shopped at ChessCentral three times now, and twice I've had questions about a particular product. I don't know much about chess software. Anyway, I was shocked to receive detailed answers later that same day! I mean, who does that? Shipping was fast and well packaged. All in all, a great chess website.
