The Power of Planning

  • The aim of every plan is the exploitation of weakness - so spot the weakness, fix it in place and then attack it!
  • The subject is really big, but the author shows examples of how to construct plans in various positions.
  • The author shows examples of how to construct plans and execute them properly.
Planning is the most difficult part of the game of chess. It is everywhere - we use it from the opening to the ending. A plan is based on your evaluation of the current game situation, and that evaluation is based on the different static and dynamic elements of the position. But what the chess books don't describe is the direction of the plan.

The aim of every plan is the exploitation of weakness! So, spot the weakness, fix it in place and then just attack it. There are different kinds of plans - typical plans, based on the structures and analogical plans, based on similar constellations of the pieces on the board. The subject is really big, but the author shows examples of how to construct plans in positions with pawn majorities on the flanks and teaches you how to exploit this element properly.

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.
