900 Chess Opening Puzzles | Martin Surman
Nie można załadować gotowości do odbioru
900 Chess Opening Puzzles turns opening study into a game of decisions. It is a collection of 900 traps and, at the same time, 900 possibilities to make the right choice. Each puzzle asks you to pick the correct move in the opening phase — there are two options, and only one of them is right.
The puzzles are grouped by ECO codes, so you can work on the openings you actually play. The book reveals the secrets of typical traps across a wide variety of openings in an easy, pleasant way — and helps you win more games early, by avoiding your own opening mistakes.
Who Is This Book For?
Players who want to learn openings by solving rather than memorising long lines — from improving club players to coaches looking for ready-made opening exercises.
RECOMMENDED LEVEL — up to approx. 2000 Elo
Stronger players will also find useful material, and coaches can use the positions in training.
What's Inside
- 900 opening puzzles — choose the right move
- Two options per puzzle, one correct solution: the other loses quickly to a sudden checkmate or leaves you a serious piece down
- Puzzles based on spectacular, extremely short chess miniatures
- Organised by ECO codes, so you can train the openings you play as White or Black
- Solutions to all puzzles at the end of the book
