DECISION MAKING IN CHESS

Grandmaster Josef Dorfman's assertion that a chess game consists of a handful of "forks" or "critical moments" connected by strings of less-important moves is brought vividly to life on this ChessBase DVD by GM Adrian Mikhalchishin. The instruction on this disk centers around the correct identification of these critical moments in which three or more possibilities are available to a player but in which only one choice leads to victory. The two-edged sword of a critical position lies not only in the difficulty of identifying such a position (usually occurring in the middle- or endgame) but finding the correct move at these important forks. The instructional content of this DVD runs nearly three and a half hours and is packed with examples taken from actual high-level chess games. While the lessons on this DVD are designed with advanced players in mind, intermediate players should have no problem understanding this material as long as they take their time with it.
