Hello everyone, last week we dedicated our time to study 4 short texts on basic notions.
This week we are going to dedicate it to :
- Tactical study for beginners, remember the beginner that if you first do not study the basic tactical models, which are about 100-150, you can never train with exercises of intermediate complexity, and only try to guess the moves sometimes with luck and others not so much.
- Tactical training for intermediate and advanced.
Of course the intermediate player knows this well, and before being a good tactical player, first learned the basic combinatorial models.
In today's lesson, I will give a text that is the skeleton of my course "Understanding Chess" (sorry spam), where Krogius will develop the idea of Strategic Indices.
The greatest virtue of this text is that it creates the theoretical frameworks where the aspiring chess player should dump all his knowledge.
My experience as a teacher tells me that when chess players do not know about these indexes they do not know how complex the Middle-Game is,
e.g. : - They think that to know structures of pawns is to know the name and the disposition of pawns nothing else, ex: isolated pawn is the pawn that this alone, and the weak square is the one that has opposite, and does not know anything else, omitting that there are books that contain 50 model games of those subjects that are subdivided in many more.
- Think that in blocked center the horses reign and in open center the bishops, and it has nothing to do with that, without counting that there are also dozens of master games that can be studied on this item.
- They think that the pair of bishops is better than Horse + Bishop, but they never studied the Steinitz games that gave origin to that theory. So you could be all day writing examples 😂 .
I leave the text for you to enjoy, and tell me your views on Facebook.
