Positional Chess – Transformation

In today's post, I want to present you a lecture on a very relevant topic. Transformation in regard to advantages. A small to a large, to a winning advantage it becomes clear that evaluating positions correctly is essential, but once understood, makes a player very good at understanding chess.

Check up the video to see a QGD Tarrasch Defense and both side’s plans before getting in to the meat of 'Transformation of Advantage'. The different types of advantages that become 'Transformed' in the chosen games are; - Superior Center into Space Advantage - Faster Development into 'creating more tactical threats'. Intermediate & Advanced ability will find this lecture highly beneficial as that transformations occur across a few moves rather than immediately and that it takes good preparation in conjunction with very small safe gains as the moves are played to correctly transform advantages. Thanks to OnlineChessLessons.NET for the great share!

I hope that you find the example interesting and if you are interested in seeing some more examples from this DVD, you can check more information at: http://www.onlinechesslessons.net/shop/positional-chess-im-valeri-lilov.
