• One of the world's greatest chess players reveals the secrets of how he plans his play • Packed with invaluable information on how to mobilise your forces, avoid threats and win the game • Illustrated with a wealth of annotated examples from the author's own games The legendary Anatoly Karpov has won over 250 Grandmaster tournaments, many more than any other player in chess history, and his games are characterised by his gradually and patiently pushing an opponent back to the wall, before finally finishing him off with a deadly blow. In this unique book, aimed at ordinary club players, Karpov gives a wealth of tips on how to incorporate this dramatic style of play into your own repertoire, through careful planning and evaluation of positions: looking at the fire-power of your forces, being aware of threats to your own king and how to safeguard it, and careful control of open lines. As he says himself: 'Finding the right plan is the key to success'. Warmily and accessibly written, but with Karpov's usual air of authority, this book makes you feel like you are spending an evening with the man himself, and will help you to absorb a little bit of the Karpov magic.

Viktor Korchnoi is a chess legend. In a career which has spanned over 60 years, he won countless grandmaster tournaments, was a four-time Soviet Champion, a multi-time World Championship Candidate, and twice fought for the World Championship in famous battles with his adversary Anatoly Karpov. Throughout his career Korchnoi continually refined his style and he was as comfortable in defence as he was in attack. He was happy to provoke opponents, accept sacrifices, defend precisely and then ruthlessly exploit weaknesses. In this book, former American Open Champion Cyrus Lakdawala studies his favourite Korchnoi games and examines Korchnoi's skills in the key areas of attack and defence, initiative, exploiting imbalances, accumulating advantages and endgame play. He demonstrates clearly how we can all improve by learning from Korchnoi's play. Move by Move provides an ideal platform to study chess. By continually challenging the reader to answer probing questions throughout the book, the Move by Move format greatly encourages the learning and practising of vital skills just as much as the traditional assimilation of knowledge. Carefully selected questions and answers are designed to keep you actively involved and allow you to monitor your progress as you learn.

Introduction This book is similar to Rate Your Chess and Rate Your Chess 2 which proved surprisingly popular. It uses a system developed by FIDE master Bill Jordan for coaching. This book features Anatoly Karpov who became world chess champion in 1927 after winning by default in 1975. Karpov was from the Soviet Union. Karpov was a great positional and endgame player.How many of his moves can you guess? Playing through Games Playing through master games is a proven method of improving. One method is to take one side, usually the winning side, and guess the next move. In the pre-computer era this could be done by covering up the moves with a sheet of cardboard. If you guessed correctly you will score. With practice you will correctly predict more moves. Doing so helps develop chess fluency. One suggested approach was not to take too long on the moves, say about 10 seconds or so. You could score correct guesses. If the move was totally unexpected, then it would be a good time to see if you could understand why the move was played. Every move should have a clear idea behind it. If you cannot see the idea, there is a learning opportunity there. Here there is between one and four choices. This is similar to a multiple choice exam. This is easier than looking at all moves and may mean you examine some moves you would not have normally considered. Diagrams This book has many large clear colour diagrams. You do not need a chess set and board to read this book. You do need to know how to read standard chess notation. How to Score This book consists of games from World Championships with brief annotations for each move. You may simply play over the games for their own sake. To get the most out of this book you play through the games and take the role of the winning player.The winning player will always be playing up the board. Initially all the details of the games will be displayed. For a number of opening moves you will not need to guess the move. The number will vary from game to game and will generally be between 8 and 10 moves (for each side). After these opening moves have been played, you will then try and predict the winning player's moves. Your choice will be selected from a number of candidate moves. If you guess correctly you will score points which will range from 0 to 6. You can either write down or otherwise keep track of your total score and see what category you reach. Rating The score for each game will always be out of 100. Scores may vary from game to game so to get a consistent rating average your score over 10 games. These are based on the FIDE (The international chess federation) rating system developed by Professor Elo. The rating of 2500+ is an approximation of the strength needed to be a Grandmaster. After you have finished a game, find what range your score is in the left column. Your approximate rating is in the right column. 91-100 2500+ 81-90 2400 - 2499 71-80 2200 - 2399 61-70 2000 - 2199 51-60 1800 - 1999 41-50 1600 - 1799 31-40 1400 - 1599 21-30 1200 - 1399 11-20 1000 - 1199 0 -10 below 1000 The challenge is to increase your rating with each game! Further Books Depending on feedback, I will publish further books in this series, based on the following World champions.

Anatoly Karpov (1951) is one of the greatest chess players of all time. The Russian grandmaster was World Champion from 1975 to 1985. He became World Champion when the American Bobby Fischer refused to defend his title. And he was dethroned when he lost a match to Garry Kasparov in 1985. Karpov was ranked the World's number one player for 90 months. He won well over a hundred top-tournaments. Karpov's play was deceptively simple. He always found good moves to glue his his position together. 'Finding the right plan is the key to success', said Karpov. But he always had a sharp eye for tactical solutions as well. In this training book you don't have to find the right plan, but the right moves! This book will provide you with one hundred training exercises, in positions where Karpov turned the game in his favour. The puzzles start at a moderate level and gradually get more difficult. Don't give up!

This series provides an ideal platform to study chess openings. By continually challenging the reader to answer probing questions throughout the book, the Move by Move format greatly encourages the learning and practising of vital skills just as much as the traditional assimilation of opening knowledge. Carefully selected questions and answers are designed to keep you actively involved and allow you to monitor your progress as you learn. This is an excellent way to study any chess opening and at the same time improve your general chess skills and knowledge. The Petroff Defence is a solid and reliable way to meet 1 e4. It has a strong reputation and has been employed regularly by many grandmasters, most notably former world champions Anatoly Karpov and Vladimir Kramnik. By choosing counterattack instead of defence as early as the second move, Black immediately avoids many favourite weapons for White, including the Ruy Lopez, Italian Game, Scotch Game and a number of daunting gambits. This practical advantage for those playing Black in the Open Games cannot be underestimated. In this book, International Master Cyrus Lakdawala invites you to join him in studying all the important lines in the Petroff. Using illustrative games, he explains the main positional and tactical ideas for both sides, provides answers to all the key questions and tells you everything you need to know about successfully playing the Petroff Defence.

Jose Raul Capablanca is a chess legend, world champion and quite simply one of the greatest players in the history of the game. His achievements and seemingly effortless style of play won many admirers, and his legacy includes a treasure of instructive games. Studying Capablanca's play is a must for any aspiring chess player. For Cyrus Lakdawala, it was a key factor in his chess development and improvement, and in this book he revisits many of his favourite Capablanca games.

By continually challenging the reader to answer probing questions throughout the book, the Move by Move format greatly encourages the learning and practising of vital skills just as much as the traditional assimilation of knowledge.
