People usually avoid discussing this topic, although it’s very important. Let’s be real: we are not machines. Our general (psychological) condition bears influence on our chess results. Probably you’ve noticed that sometimes you play worse than usual. Obviously, it’s not because of your chess knowledge, which is still the same as previously. Again, this is completely normal and natural – we are human beings and we have emotions. Some people even say that Bobby Fischer abandoned chess because of his fear of losing. How to solve this problem? First, let me give you a dictum: “Emotions control a weak person. Next, I’ll give you a piece of advice, which will help you to direct your emotions on the right track. You are NOT responsible for the result of your games Maybe this sounds strange, so let me explain it.

The Grunfeld defense, followed by the moves 1. d4 Nf6 2.c4 g6 3.
Nc3 d5 is one of the most popular chess openings, where Black offers White the possibility of 4. cxd5, when after 4…Nxd5 White further gets the opportunity to kick the Black Knight away with 5. e4, leading to a strong centre for White. However, the large pawn centre could be a liability rather than an asset. The Grunfeld is therefore an opening, showing how a large pawn centre can either be a powerful battering ram or a target for attack. Russian Grandmaster and seven-time Russian Champion, Peter Svidler, is considered the ‘God of Grunfeld defense’ for his expertise in the opening.
People say that a lot of modern moves were ‘invented’ by him and that he has contributed a lot to modern Grunfeld theory. Today our guest coach, IM David Miedema, has prepared a very instructive video lesson for you.

Pure Chess: Grandmaster Edition Review – GameSpew. Chess.
It’s been around hundreds of years, and you either love it or hate it (or, alternatively, just don’t know how to play it). If you’re not a fan of the checkerboard game then we can safely agree that Ripstone’s Pure Chess Grandmaster Edition is not going to be your cup of tea. If, however, you are partial to a tactical battle of ebony versus ivory, then this premier digital version is well worth checking out. The Openings of the Top Ten Chess Players of All Time - Chessable Blog. The Best of the Best Everyone loves to speculate as to who was the best ever.
I’ll share my opinion, but I’ve put little spin on it this time. I’ll share who I think the Top Ten Chess Players of All Time were, but I’m also going to survey their opening repertoires and see what we can learn about them. In creating my list, I did review a few other lists, including ones that used statistics to create ELO ratings for the players of previous generations.

September 1953, gehörte Mitte der 70er Jahre zu den stärksten englischen Spielern. Er erzielte eine Reihe von Erfolgen in internationalen Turnieren und kam fünf Mal in die englische Olympiaauswahl. 1978 und 1981 arbeitete er als Sekundant von Viktor Kortschnoi, der in dieser Zeit zwei Mal die Kandidatenwettkämpfe gewann und gegen Anatoly Karpov um die Weltmeisterschaft spielen durfte. 1982 zog sich Stean im Alter von 29 Jahren vom Schach zurück und wurde Steuerberater. Zum Glück schrieb er 1978, vier Jahre vor Ende seiner Schachkarriere, noch einen kleinen Klassiker: Simple Chess, eine wunderbare Einführung in die Grundregeln der Schachstrategie. Nach kurzer Einleitung beginnt Stean sein Buch mit folgender Stellung:
