Introduction to Chess Calculation

Confidently Calculating – Along the Right Track. Struggling to find your way in a crowded chess board? Calculations spiraling out of control, because there are too many “checks, captures, and threats” to watch out for? If this scenario hits home, then you’ll love this Introduction To Chess Calculation.

It teaches you how to find the right move by scanning the board for clues, and connecting the dots.

Instead of wearing yourself out, examining every possible continuation…

Author Candidate Master Azel Chua teaches you simple and efficient calculation techniques. So that you’d know when and where to look for opportunities… and precisely how to capitalize on those opportunities.

Build Your Calculation Technique from the Ground Up – Let’s tour you around the course
In the first chapter, Chua teaches you how to identify targets — stuff you can potentially win by force.

Over 40 MoveTrainer exercises and informational files sharpen your awareness for pins, x-rays, unprotected pieces, and other targets.

Plus, you’ll also be shown
– Why the “checks, captures, threats” rule can improve your puzzle-solving scores… while your actual results stagnate!
– How to be efficient in carrying out a maneuver — leaving the opponent no time to react.
– How to verbalize puzzle solutions like a strong chess player. So you can repeat their thought process in real games.
After honing your eye for targets, Chua lays down specific ways to exploit those targets. You’ll discover how to
– Attract enemy pieces to a double-attack, ensuring you win one of them.
– Turn a “dying” knight or bishop to a desperado. So that it deals maximum damage before it’s captured.
– Cut off defenders and pick off the buddies they leave behind.
– Measure the “forking range” to stay out of nasty knight forks.
– And many more.
