Dvoretsky endgame torrent

The ideas and principles discussed aren't terribly difficult or esoteric, but they're not easily distilled down into jingoistic "maxims" such as "A Knight on the rim is dim". Dvoretsky puts the meal on your plate, but he's not going to cut your meat for you or spoonfeed you the veggies. You have to be willing to occasionally push yourself to grasp the concepts and then apply them, using the exercises that the author also provides on the disk.

Make no mistake, this is a major addition to the body of chess literature. Unlike, say, Fine's endgame book which consists of example after example after example of various endgames in action, Dvoretsky's Endgame Manual actually takes the trouble to explain the endgames to you, challenging you to learn how to think about them and then apply that process in your own games. If this CD was to appear as a print work, it would be hundreds of pages long -- and the really wild part is that the CD covers only endgames in which each side has one piece maximum along with multiple pawns, of course.

While this CD is definitely not "Become An Endgame Killer in a Single Evening", it will give you the tools you need to become a major monster in the endgame, that is, if you're game enough to put forth some extra effort to learn how to use those tools. No way. And it's certainly not aimed at beginners. But it's not just for "strong players" either. Any player of intermediate level who's willing to do a little extra "skull sweat" can profit immensely by learning, understanding, and using the concepts taught on this CD.

The gauntlet has been thrown down. It's time for you to do a little bit of soul searching to determine if you're ready for the "next level". If you're starting to find the average run of the mill chess book a bit unsatisfying, if you've reached a plateau at which most chess books don't teach you very much, you're probably ready for Dvoretsky's Endgame Manual.

This is not to say that other chess books have limited value. My point is that I can't advise you as to whether or not you're ready for this CD -- only you can make that determination. If you're ready for a bit of a challenge which will pay you dividends if you can rise to it, then you should definitely consider adding Dvoretsky's Endgame Manual to your arsenal of training tools. Just be prepared for some work, not only in effort but in time.

There's a lot of information on this CD and it's going to take a considerable time investment to devour all of the material. But it'll be time well spent -- you'll realize this after you start racking up the points on the tournament wall chart. Until next week, have fun! All rights reserved. Not registered yet?

One of the secrets of the Russian chess school is now before you, dear reader! I hope it will bring you as much pleasure as it has me. Here's what they had to say about the First Edition:. It comes close to an ultimate one-volume manual on the endgame.

Lubomir Kavalek in his chess column of December 1, in the Washington Post. It is a tremendous contribution to endgame literature, certainly the most important one in many years, and destined to be a classic of the literature if it isn't already one.

The famous trainer Mark Dvoretsky has put together a vast number of examples that he has not only collected, but analysed and tested with some of the world's strongest players. This is a particularly important book from the standpoint of clarifying, correcting, and extending the theory of endings.

Most of all, Dvoretsky's analysis is staggering in its depth and accuracy. To call this the best book on endgames ever written seems to be an opinion shared by almost all reviewers and commentators. And I must say that I am not to disagree. Uploaded by JalilWarraich on August 17, Internet Archive's 25th Anniversary Logo.
