Nimzo-Indian Defence: Complete Guide
WGM Raluca Sgircea, IM Renier Castellanos

In this post, I would like to show a very simple, yet very effective chess principle that is present in every game of chess. While our opponent’s moves are providing vital information about their intentions, still we often fail to understand them in their entirety.

5 Things for Playing Better Blitz Chess
WGM Raluca Sgircea, IM Renier Castellanos
08.24.2018

Playing Better Blitz Chess: Quite often we have met club players who perform well in tournaments with classical time control and give a strong appearance of being underrated players. However, when the time trouble comes they tend to collapse quite easily. The same is seen at rapid and blitz events; some players can’t even finish […]

You have probably heard a lot about the importance of studying the classics and the many things you can learn from old games.

New openings are important. Although it is common to hear well-experienced Grandmasters telling you that you should start by studying the endgame (as stated by Capablanca), this does not mean that you should put the opening aside. In modern chess, when even the low-rated players have great access to information and top analysis by coaches […]

A game of chess is a complex affair. It starts long before the first move has been played. It starts at home. For chess, the wise words of Benjamin Franklin, “By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail” are applicable to the fullest. But how do you prepare? For now we will leave the […]

Capablanca’s Endgame Technique
GM Alex Colovic

Capablanca’s Endgame Technique has always been one of my idols and the first conscious raise of my level happened after every day, 3-month study of his games. It was the winter of 2004-2005 and for three months, December, January, and February all I did was study and analyze Capablanca’s games every single day all day […]

Knowing your theory well is very important nowadays, but unfortunately not enough.
