Game of the Week: Van Delft vs Van den Doel
4/1/2020 – The Candidates was pretty much the last tournament running, and has been cancelled halfway. The entire chess community has moved online by now and many new initiatives appear. This week Merijn van Delft looks at an interesting game he played before the (semi-)lockdown. | The show is free to watch, and available on-demand for ChessBase Premium account holders (but FREE for a limited time!).
It’s a problem every player encounters when he stands better in a game: how to convert his plus into a full point? In this DVD the author answers this difficult question of chess strategy, considering both the psychological aspects of the realisation of an advantage and the technical methods.
Game of the Week #406
In a Belgian league game I got fantastic chances against my friend GM Erik van den Doel, but in the end he showed why grandmasters are grandmasters.
The live show is free to watch, and available on-demand for ChessBase Premium accounts.
