Of fatal Blunders and Chess Traps: how to avoid them: It happens to Masters as well, unbelievable! (Chess manual)
Do you remember your last blunder? No? You never blunder? Do not buy this book.<br /><br />Are you prone to blunders? Frequently? This book explains what to do to avoid them.<br /><br /> Do you lose your game after a few moves due to a trap you did not know or remember?<br />This book might help you if you follow the required discipline.<br /><br /> Not a long list of traps, even if I have a file containing more than ten thousand related games. <br />But just a dozen of examples, chosen to explain the technique. That's enough.<br /><br /> If you know my other chess books, you know I am no boaster, give it a try.<br />As usual, some orthographic and grammatical errors will be there, I apologize.<br /><br />Target is chess players below 1,400 Elo rating, adult beginners.<br /><br />As usual in my books, links to games are provided (to see them an Internet connection is needed).<br /><br />It is like watching a movie at the cinema, where the villain thinks he has trapped the protagonist, but then the protagonist turns the tables on the villain and wins. <br />This will help retain the knowledge better. Then, as games are played, that knowledge will be remembered and slowly transformed into skill.<br /><br />Rodolfo Pardi, Librarian, Fide player, coach and arbiter of the Italian Chess Federation
