Is Your Move Safe?: Initial and Final Candidate Moves

Is Your Move Safe?: Initial and Final Candidate Moves

Safety first! Success in chess begins with asking yourself the basic question, Is the move that Im considering a safe one? 
The question may sound simple, but answering it is not so simple. National Master and award-winning chess instructor Dan Heisman has carefully selected more than 150 theoretical and tournament positions to show how a move may look safe but isnt, or how it can appear risky and still be the safest option on the board.
Traditional tactics books tell you that your opponent's position is not safe, suggesting that as the player to move in the puzzle you can win material or deliver checkmate. 
Is Your Move Safe? concentrates instead on helping you to make sure that your opponent wont have any such tactics to find! 
Ranging from fairly easy to very difficult, the multiple-choice puzzles in this book will challenge most players from low intermediate to strong master. The answers are not all clear-cut – many of them are extensively analyzed and will have you digging deeply into the position.
If you want a practical book to improve your ability to choose your moves, Is Your Move Safe? is just what youve been looking for!

Dan Heisman has been a full-time chess instructor since 1996. His Novice Nook column at Chess Café has received numerous annual awards for Best Instruction from the Chess Journalists of America. His video series, Improve Your Chess, appears weekly on the Internet Chess Club, where previously he also hosted the radio show, Ask the Renaissance Man.. This is Dans twelfth chess book.

Move First, Think Later: Sense and Nonsense in Improving Your Chess

Move First, Think Later: Sense and Nonsense in Improving Your Chess

3rd Edition - with a new epilogue: 'The Discussion Continues' The chess instruction establishment claims that all you need to do is concentrate on the characteristics of a position. Stick to some rules of thumb and good moves will pop up more or less automatically. But that is not how it works, finds International Master Willy Hendriks. Chess players, both weak and strong, dont first make a plan before looking at candidate moves. Trial and error is a very common and in fact highly effective way to get t

e3 Poison by Axel Smith (miękka okładka)

Wydanie w miękkiej okładce, wersja językowa - angielska. When Axel Smith was chasing his final Grandmaster norm, he decided he needed a change in his White opening repertoire. Instead of his usual approach of memorizing many concrete moves to try to force an advantage, he would focus on pawn structures and typical plans. The result was a repertoire based on a set-up with the moves d4, Nf3, c4 and e3. It helped Axel Smith to the GM title, and led to the creation of e3 Poison. This repertoire can be pla

Better thinking, better chess

Better thinking, better chess

Finding strong moves doesn't simply depend on how much you know about chess. In fact, greater conceptual knowledge makes choosing a move more complex as it increases the number of directions your mind can take. More important is optimizing your thought process. Grandmaster Joel Benjamin knows that pointing out the moves his students missed is just half the job. They need to understand that they were looking in the wrong direction.  Chess engines offer little help in this because they cant explain why
