CHESS LESSON 2: PART TWO

PART TWO... 9.Bd3 Now the Bishop eyes up a nice diagonal while protecting our f5 pawn and the offensive player can castle. All these wonderful things come of this one move 9.Bd3. http://net-chess.com/images/lwbr.jpg http://net-chess.com/images/lbbn.jpg http://net-chess.com/images/lwsq.jpg http://net...

An interesting Correspondence Game...

This game was from one of the tournaments I had posted awhile ago. My results here on SLOWCHESS.COM have been REALLY unpredictable. I remember one night, after having been at work all day and in the midst of an insomnia attack, I came home and I set down in front of the computer and logged in onto o...

Thanks for your time. I might add also that there are an awful lot of interesting games going on right now. ...

"LOGICAL CHESS, MOVE By MOVE" ~Irving Chernev.

LOGICAL CHESS: Move by move ... Is simply excellent. Some of the things Chernev says in that book are not correct for "advanced" players but are spot on for social players and beginners.
