Fritz Trainer: Key Concepts of Chess 2-Pawn Structures w/Grooten

The IQP and the Passed Pawn. Two Structures Every Club Player Must Understand.

IM Herman Grooten continues his Key Concepts of Chess series with a second volume focused on two of the most important and frequently occurring pawn structures in club chess — the Isolated Queen's Pawn and the passed pawn in the middlegame.

What This Course Covers (4 hours):

• The Isolated Queen's Pawn (IQP) — arising in many opening variations, essential to understand for both sides. When is it a strength? When is it a weakness? How do you exploit it or neutralize it?
• The passed pawn in the middlegame — sometimes invaluable, sometimes a liability. Learn when a passed pawn can cause an astonishing, decisive effect
• Rules of thumb and concepts — practical guidance for finding the right plans in your own games
• Clear examples from games that club players will recognize and relate to
