Why do some club players make quick progress and quickly jump from novice and intermediate to expert and beyond… while many others get stuck at 1400 for decades and barely progress?
Is that because they are super smart? Natural-born chess players?
Training for 80 hours a week? Nope, not at all. They simply follow the two-step system: LEARN and APPLY. If you learn the important ideas and apply it in your games, your results will skyrocket.
This begs the question, what to learn? You can spend months or even years learning things that will not produce any major impact on your game.
Success in chess involves many things. It requires chess strategy, tactics, calculation and intuition, evaluation and creativity. Chess strategy involves the general positions of positional play.
This video is a free preview of GM Bryan Smith’s course, “Chess Strategy Mastery” in which Bryan covers all the areas of strategy that you need to know in order to take your game to the next level.
In the course, Bryan teaches how to improve one’s pieces, how to gain the initiative, how to gain control of key squares, how to create weaknesses in the opponent’s position (and how to exploit them!), as well as how to convert an advantage into a win through direct attacks or through simplification of the position.
All of these important chess strategy elements can’t really be implemented, however, without being able to analyze each position and evaluate how a move changes things, and which player benefits the most from the structural and positional changes.
GM Bryan Smith analyzes a number of games in order to teach this crucial skill in chess strategy. In the first game, Bryan shows how even a relatively normal-looking position immediately after the opening can hold so much potential to find an advantage, and how Black went wrong with moves that might at first glance look okay. This is how you’ll learn not to mis-evaluate a position, and what the key things are you need to keep in mind with every single move you make.
