Improve your game by studying 250 checkmate exercises!The book contains 200 tactics exercises for the reader to solve, and all of them are from games involving players with an Elo rating in the range of 1600 - 2200. The book contains 250 checkmate exercises for the reader to solve, and all of them are from games involving players with an Elo rating in the range of 1600 - 2200. These exercises are easier than those contained in my previous book, 200 Checkmate Exercises From Tournament Games (www.amazon.com/dp/B071CVVQNK), and they are more suited to players who have less experience in chess. The exercises are split into two chapters. The first chapter has 100 mate in 1 exercises, and the second chapter has 150 mate in 2 exercises. There is only one first move that achieves the required goal for each exercise. For the mate in 2 exercises, there may be several moves for the second move that achieve the goal, and all of these choices are acceptable as solutions. The mate in 1 exercises are good for developing quick board vision, and the aim is to solve these exercises quickly. Of course, the mate in 2 exercises require more work. Detailed solutions are provided for all the exercises, and they have been computer-checked by several strong chess engines for accuracy. The book will be a valuable resource for improving players, and it will give the reader many hours of instruction and entertainment. Buy your copy today and start winning more games!
