Henrik Schlößner: Test your Chess
In the training questions, the new function Multiple Choice also allows questions to be set about the evaluation of positions, or for example what chance is there of an attack on the king. Possible answers are always suggested and the training is done by clicking on what you consider to be the correct solution. But things do not have to be simple… The author has provided 555 game fragments with training questions and divided the material into six chapters:
 

  • Mate (find the first move or perhaps the number of moves till mate)
  • Attack (find the best moves for a decisive attack)
  • Defence (find the best defensive move)
  • Winning material (find the move that will win material)
  • Mistakes (avoid a decisive error)
  • Stress (you must make up your mind within 30 seconds)
  • Positional evaluation (you have to find the right assessment of the position)

About the author: Henrik Schlößner is the author of the tactics database on the Tal-CD and is also responsible for Technique Trainer 1 and 2.

  Chessbase - Deadly Threats (over 2500 selected positions) Renko $54.95

 

 KILLER MOVES by George Renko
If you occupy yourself with chess - i.e. study games, variations, endgames etc. - you store a lot of pictures in your memory, consciously or subconsciously. The more of these you can retrieve during a game, the better you play. Of course, there are also a number of additional factors determining the successful realization of this theory in practice. Still, the learning of pictures and motifs is the essential thing for having success in chess. And the most effective method of doing this is to study tactical positions and combinatory motifs. George Renko, mathematician and chess trainer, has compiled a huge number of tactical sample positions. After the main course - his CD "Intensive Course Tactics" - the author now serves the desert "Killer Moves" - multipurpose moves usually forcing an immediate decision. The nine databases are split up according to difficulty and contain about 1.600 tasks, partially composed, partially taken from practical games. During this training course the author doesn´t dwell on lengthy explanations - according to the motto "one picture says more than a thousand words". Language: English
