GM NODIRBEK ABDUSATTOROV: ONCE IN A LIFETIME ENCOUNTER, CHERISH EACH MOMENT BECAUSE IT WILL NEVER BE REPEATED

22/January 2024/ SIMPLY AMAZING GAME… SuperGM Nodirbek Abdusattorov masterfully showed us the way to refute the line 4…Ne4 by just simple castle 5. 0-0. Black can’t do much due to black king still at the center and must play defensive first. Lovely game. Thanks to all and hope you have a great week.

The 2nd featured game: Super GM Fabiano Caruana played like a relentless attacking machine. This game is a classic attack and counter-attack quality game. Enjoy watching and a good coffee…

Beating the Sicilian: Moscow Variation Series 1

BEATING THE SICILIAN MOSCOW VARIATION: SERIES 1

IM/WGM BIBISARA ASSAUBAYEVA: WHEN POSITIVE THINGS ARE MADE, THAT RETURNS WELL

20/December 2023/ IM/WGM Assaubayeva masterfully handled the Sicilian against the solid Moscow variation. Black’s two bishops in the middle game pressured white’s kingside which contributed to WGM Daulyte-Cornette’s blunder at move 30.

The 2nd featured game:  Pretty instructive game. Super GM Vidit amazingly controlled the game from start to end. He creatively finds ways to initiate pressure in all corners. Highly recommended as a tool for chess instruction.

The 2nd featured game:  World Champion Vladimir Kramnik’s 16. e5 move is part of a jigsaw puzzle. The other part of the jigsaw puzzle is the move 25. Nc3. This game is such a “WORK OF ART”…loved it…

FM JESSE NOEL SALES: THERE IS NO SUBSTITUTE FOR HARDWORK

08/December 2023/ From the opening stage where white dictated the game till the end part. Therefore, as a result, discipline and hardwork will never betray you. I will always cherish my wins against grandmasters where you learn a lot and are challenged at the most. Thanks to GM Rogelio “Joey” Antonio Jr. for this wonderful game.

The 2nd featured game:  Super GM Bartel’s 27. Bd3 move, amazed me. His style of play has a resemblance with World Champ Gary Kasparov’s dynamic play. Well done…

MASTERING THE GIUOCO PIANO: SERIES 3

GM VIDIT, SANTOSH GURATHI: FINDING THE WEAKEST LINK

05/December 2023/ I like the way Super GM Vidit set-up his pieces, at the same time, waiting for white to overextend his kingside pawns eventually, leaving a weak link at f4 square. Imagine when you wait for the right moment, sometimes, your ability to speculate things to happen, it just happens naturally.

 

The 2nd featured game:  American Super GM Niemann’s performance lately is outstanding, all the rumors or accusations about cheating faded or overlapped by his amazing results.
