Description
Planning is the most difficult — and most rewarding — part of chess. It runs through every phase of the game, from the opening to the endgame, and it's built on a foundation of accurate evaluation. But what chess books rarely explain is the direction of a plan: every plan aims to exploit a weakness. Spot it, fix it, attack it.
In this Fritz Trainer course, GM Adrian Mikhalchishin breaks down the two main types of plans — typical structural plans and analogical plans based on similar piece constellations — with a particular focus on positions featuring pawn majorities on the flanks. Learn to identify these structures and exploit them with precision.
