Jan Jettel vs. Fritz 19 - The Swindler (Strong Club Player)

by ChessBase
11/17/2023 – Fritz 19 is in the lead again with 2.5 to 1.5. But maybe our strong club level player Jan Jettel, perhaps better known as Schachnotizen, can defeat the tricky engine opponent. You either love, or hate to play against an ultra-aggressive club player, who pushes pawns forward non-stop, and sacrifices pieces with delight. The Swindler is exactly this. In the dramatic battle with Jan Jettel, the fox character pulls off a couple of tricks in typical swindler fashion. A game, Jan will probably never forget!
Attacker, coward, swindler or endgame wizard: I'll show you how to win against anyone! After my World Championship victories in 2022 and 2023, I am the reigning Chess Software World Champion and am now looking forward to showing you how to become even stronger against your opponent. With my innovative training method, I simulate typical player personalities you know from tournaments and online chess: brash attackers, cautious cowards, passive players. But how do you win against them? Fritz will show you how!
