Tactics and Strategy with GM Marian Petrov (MP4)

In this 3 hour course, GM Marian Petrov covers 3 very important, and often under-rated aspects of chess:

1. Attacking in the Opening [Players focus on specific lines, here GM Petrov demonstrates ideas and principles leading to a powerful attack regardless of what opening you play]
2. Positional Game
3. Fundamental Endgames [GM Petrov hand-picked over a dozen practical endings that EVERY competitive player should be able to convert even with seconds on the clock]

Marian hits all 3 phases of the game and transitions from the Attack in the Opening to Positional Chess and finally to Endgame Fundamentals.

Those plays and ideas are especially useful for those 1200-1700 rated, but even if you are slightly lower/higher-rated – you will benefit from these as well!

What you will learn:

• Attacking Ideas in the Opening Play
• Playing “non-standard” moves
• Forcing wins in unclear positions
• Using tactical motives to supplement your strategic ideas
• The number 1 rule when it comes to attacking the king in the middle of the board
