Book Description
Limited-time special: The paperback version is on sale for only $6.99 (normally $9.99). Improve your game by studying 250 checkmate exercises! The book contains 250 checkmate exercises for the reader to solve, and it is a sequel to 250 Checkmate Exercises For Improving Players (www.amazon.com/dp/B073TCVQSK) and 250 Checkmate Exercises For Improving Players - Volume 2 (www.amazon.com/dp/B074J94G8K). In contrast to the first two volumes, this book contains some mate in 3 exercises to provide a greater challenge. The exercises are from games involving players with an Elo rating in the range of 1600 - 2200. These exercises are easier than those contained in my previous book, 200 Checkmate Exercises From Tournament Games(www.amazon.com/dp/B071CVVQNK), and they are more suited to players who have less experience in chess. The exercises are split into three chapters. The first chapter has 100 mate in 1 exercises, the second chapter has 100 mate in 2 exercises and the third chapter has 50 mate in 3 exercises. There is only one first move that achieves the required goal for each exercise. For the longer-mate exercises, there may be several moves for the second and third moves that achieve the goal, and all of these choices are acceptable as solutions. The mate in 1 exercises are particularly good for developing quick board vision, and the aim is to solve these exercises quickly. Of course, the longer-mate exercises require more work. Detailed solutions are provided for all the exercises, and they have been computer-checked by several strong chess engines for accuracy. The book will be a valuable resource for improving players, and it will give the reader many hours of instruction and entertainment.

Book Description
Chess might seem a complex and mysterious game, but the ultimate goal is simple: checkmate. Checkmate can occur in all stages of the game, from snap mates in the opening, through middlegame attacks to simplified endgames. Learning how to use our pieces together to corner the enemy king is a fundamental skill that all chess-players must constantly practise, sharpen and develop. This book lays out, in systematic and thorough fashion, a wide range of mating patterns and techniques, in particular showing how each piece-pair can combine to deliver mate. A working knowledge of these ideas enables players to move on to mating combinations, where pieces lay down their lives so that the remaining forces can deliver mate. Gude explains an amazing variety of tactical devices, and illustrates them in unforgettable style with some of the most brilliant mating attacks from practice, new and old. There are chapters on how to attack kings in the centre, as well as standard (and other!) attacks against the castled position. This is a true textbook of checkmate; readers will never be short of mating ideas, and will instinctively know when there is a possibility to launch an attack, or when they must parry the opponent's threats. Fundamental Checkmates also features more than 300 exercises with full solutions. Antonio Gude is an extremely experienced chess writer and teacher from Spain. Several of his books on tactics and for beginners are long-standing best-sellers in Spanish language. Gude has also translated a great many books, including some of the classics of chess literature.

Book Description
Chess is 99% tactics. If this celebrated observation is true for the master, how much more so for beginners and casual players! If you want to win more games, nothing works better than training combinations. There are two types of books on tactics, those that introduce the concepts followed by some examples, and workbooks that contain numerous exercises. Chess masters and trainers Franco Masetti and Roberto Messa have done both: they explain the basic tactical ideas AND provide an enormous amount of exercises for each different theme. Masetti and Messa have created a great first tactics book. It teaches you how to: ¯ identify weak spots in the position of your opponent ¯ recognize patterns of combinations ¯ visualize tricks. 1001 Chess Exercises for Beginners can also be used as a course text book, because only the most didactically productive exercises have been used.
