Opis

This book has a two-fold purpose ... to help chess players who would consider themselves to be average or below to improve their playing skills; and secondly - and equally important - to entertain The first of these will be achieved it is hoped through an analysis of 'ordinary' games (those well below grandmaster level, although they feature one by a youthful Nigel Short and other games by up-and-coming GMs, Hebden, Flear). 67 games played by the author at club and county level in Leicestershire and Nottinghamshire are dissected and the lessons that can be learned from each one are spotlighted for the reader. So, none are too deep for an average strength player and, all too often, the plans of the author or his opponent "gang awry."
