Power Play 20: Test Your Attacking Chess
Grandmaster Daniel King presents ten exemplary attacking performances. At key moments he stops and asks you to play a move. King then gives feedback on the most plausible continuations. It’s the next best thing to having your own personal trainer!
Daniel King recently made video number 6 of his "Candidates Tournament 2020" preview on his YouTube channel, featuring Alexander Grischuk. King points out that Grischuk has been in the chess business for ages already and is the most experienced player in the field.
Although he has the third highest Elo in this tournament after Ding Liren and Fabiano Caruana, Daniel King is worried that Grischuk's stamina cannot keep up with the amount of rounds played. Grischuk's style of playing is somehow exhausting because of his deep analysis to find the perfect moves in any situation, often leading to time pressure.
There is no doubt that Alexander Grischuk might be one of the most exciting players and strongest contestants to face Carlsen in the World Championship in December. After the unexpected withdrawal of fellow candidate Teimour Radjabov, Grischuk will soon challenge Maxime Vachier-Lagrave again. These two grandmasters had some intense battles in the Hamburg Grand Prix just a couple of months ago and Daniel King presents a great endgame analysis from one of those games, in the video below.
