Terrific book review -- thank you! Over 30,000 subscribers I see. Pretty sure I jumped aboard around the 5,000 mark. This channel really deserves 100,000. It's pure gold.
Definitely.
Wow, thank you!
I really enjoy these book reviews, keep em coming coach.
Glad you like them!
Great review! My coach is friends with the author so I’ll ask him to forward this review. I’m sure it will be appreciated!
Also, can you record a fake review where you hate on this book that I can send to my opponents? 😅
Thanks Maurits, appreciate it mate!
Boomshki New andras book review. Love the book reviews.
Cheers mate!
Great to see book reviews for the fans!
An Andras approved book is an instant buy, all of your reviews have been spot on and thanks so much for doing this. It's not easy to orient through the plethora of books available and credible reviews like yours are a gold mine.
Sounds very interesting. But the examples seem a little bit too hard for me. Could you give a ELO rating range for which you would recommend the book?
I think about 1500Fide and up.
What's your online rating?
@@ChessCoachAndras My FIDE rating is 1450, so I will give it an ambitious try. Loading Amazon… Purchasing… Done. By the way: Would you have an affiliate link, then you would have earned some money. As it is, you only earn my thanks. :)
What did you think of it? Personally i think this is the best chess book i've read.. 110 pages in so far
Thanks for recommending.
Excellent review. And your surprising observation about Capablanca’s and Karpov’s games as hard models for improving players is most helpful!
Yeah. Do you think this is because they play such a deep strategic style?
I miss his recommendations though. It would be nice if hebcould recommend one or two world champs you definately should study as a 1500+ FIDE club player.
@@tommarcoen6758 Morphy, Alekhine should be everyone's first two.
love the content!
Coach Andras reccomends.. I'm in ✌️😊
Well executed book review. Enjoyed every moment.
Glad you enjoyed it!
I'm only passed 25 pages and im already loving how this book is structured. It isn't sectioned into pages focusing on minor pieces, rooks and passed pawns like Silman or Grootens book. The exercises build on different stages of the same game so the themes are very representative of a real chess game! That these exercises come about every other page or so makes the learning process way more immersive. The author wants the player to put the pieces on a chess board however this book is rather easy to read so i haven't found that necessary. I do however write down the different lines i come up with. Atleast 3 different lines for each excersise. So far books 5/5!
FYI I'm 1600 rated over the board classical.
Great review! Is the material approachable for any level of player, or would it be recommended to read through other pieces of strategic chess literature before attacking it?
I agree, the book is marketed for clubs players but it would be cool to get an approximate rating range and maybe a comparison to other books out there (if any).
I would start with something lighter first, like the Grooten book, which I also reviewed.
Amazing video
When you showed the second example, I immediately remembered the game frome a lecture (I thnik) on Ginger GM's site by Ivan Sokolov on how to play against the Tartakower QGD. I don't know if I'd found the solution if I hadn't remembered that. ;) Then again, Karpov, along with Capablanca is my favourite player, so I had to laugh somewhat when you mentioned them as difficult to understand or learn from.
Terrific book, i need to buy it
A book made for the Neal Bruces among us!
Thanks Coach.
Thank you mate :)
Another great review! The Karpov games were excellent.
Glad you like them!
Working through the Grooten Strategy book right now... is this the one I should do next? or you recommend something else?
CONGRATS ON 30K COACH!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks!!🎉 appreciate you buddy!
@@ChessCoachAndras Congratulations. I hope you continue to grow :)
I will be buying that book!
Coach Andras, whose games would you recommend for class C to B players? Spielmann?
It'd be good to compare this book with Grooten's strategy book that's also aimed at club players.
I feel the Grooten is perhaps a bit easier.
Community is growing
Damn! You should've considered a career as a salesman! 😅😅
Would you recommend this book or Herman Grooten's strategy for club players book? (I'm1700)
I reckon Grooten first, then this
Thanks @@ChessCoachAndras. Just ordered the Grooten book :D
It is available in digital format?
Not to my knowledge....
@@ChessCoachAndras it is available in electronic format if you purchase it from forwardchess.
Pre ordered, not available to Nov 1 on amazon
Comment for the algo - great review!
How much is it.
honestly, no idea. I guess it largely depends on where you buy it from.
What do you think of the book "Practical Chess Exercises: 600 Lessons from Tactics to Strategy"? I really love the concept of the book, but I can't help but be suspicious because the author is an untitled unknown. It has great reviews and a foreword from GM, but that doesn't guarantee that the explanations are good.
Sorry, don't know that book.
it's a great book!
I have that book and I really enjoy it
Cutting up a book for flash cards is heresy, just sayin lol.
I agree. And quite expensive given that you can easily recreate the diagrams using computer software.
Being a token Aussie maybe you should change up the intro with - G'day to the blokes and Sheila's!!!
Thats actually a great idea!
@@ChessCoachAndras no worries, mate. Try it out mate she'll be right!!!
why is Kasparov front and center????? that spot is for Fischer!
The pronounciation wasn't horribly butchered. The last 'e' in the name, in this instance is a short è, instead of "see" . :)
Actually I thought about this, my previous comment isn't right. There are at least different ways the letter "e" is pronounced in a word in Dutch.
A short è sound, like "pet" (=cap)
The long é sound like "zee" (=sea)
A kinda "uh" sound, like "ze" (=she)
In this case the "e" at the end should be pronounced something like "uh"
The long sound is usually written like "ee" but to keep it simple this is not true when the letter is at the end of a syllable, then it should be long.
The best word that combines this mess is "deze" (=these") This is pronounced something like dea-suh.
Languages don't make any sense. Sorry, this comment is just my interest in languages, not because I think every perosn should speak all the languages in the world.
