Good day everyone!
I read the following articles on the website, chess-teacher dot com.
Attack is one of the most important and essential skills in chess. You cannot win a chess game if you cannot attack. But many chess players don’t know where to attack and how to start an attack. The right plan is required to deliver a proper and successful attack.
“Attack is the best form of defense” is a well-known phrase, and it means that to attack or to strike is the best way to protect oneself. Apparently, this applies to the chess game as well. However, most of the chess players do not know HOW to deliver a successful attack.
Even the first undisputed world chess champion, Wilhelm Steinitz, used to say that “Only the player with the initiative has the right to attack.”
Today our guest coach CM Tryfon Gavriel has prepared a very instructive video lesson for you. In this video, he will show you a great game played by the 12-year old Magnus Carlsen, where the current World Champion had delivered a successful attack with an amazing Queen sacrifice.
