The Fun of Chess Tactics

6/10/2019 – Why is it so much fun to solve tactical puzzles? The first reason has nothing to do with chess: Solving an interesting problem brings a sense of achievement. This releases a quantity of dopamine in the brain. Dopamine is a complex neurotransmitter and constitutes part of the brain’s neurochemical motivation and reward mechanism, often cited in pop culture as the “hormone of happiness”. It is the same substance your head gets overdosed with when you fall in love.

The London System

If you are looking for a new attacking plan against the popular Queen’s Gambit, then this download is for you. Completely new ideas after 1.d4 d5 2.Bf4 turn the solid London system into a serious weapon. New approaches and Fritz analyses will catch out an unprepared opponent. Henrik Danielsen used this system to win the Icelandic blitz championship in 2011. Some strong GMs and IMs didn't realise the danger before it was too late. Even after Black’s best defence White will be able to fight for an advantage. After watching 60 minutes you have a total opening plan against the Queen’s Gambit.

Is it possible to bulk upload or save a PGN file to a newly created cloud database?
Uploading multiple games one by one is rather tedious.

That is correct onlye4, but the feature exists nevertheless, just as the Videos section is exclusive to Premium subscribers.

You can save PGN games. Under the notation of the game, click on PGN.

I don't like how I can't even save PGN files or try to print them from the WebApp. I can't either sort games by names or opening CODE. Still a lot to improve.
