Winning starts with what you know
The new version 18 offers completely new possibilities for chess training and analysis: playing style analysis, search for strategic themes, access to 6 billion Lichess games, player preparation by matching Lichess games, download Chess.com games with built-in API, built-in cloud engine and much more.
We asked Dorian to explain this interesting coincidence. His reply was quite candid: "My agreement with Victor is working out just fine. We agreed that first I would make him more popular through my lectures on Playchess.com, and then he would win Dortmund and make my lessons more popular among chess players! Naturally I would continue to use him as a subject, and lots of people would come to take a look at Bologan's games."
There are words for this kind of thing, Doru. Fast shuffle or flam. Racket, scam, complot. Or maybe serendipity. At least our Playchess visitors are profiting from it. They are the ones walking around saying "Bologan – yeah, I can tell you all about him."
So Viktor Bologan has proved to be an eminently worthy subject for GM Dorian Rogozenko's weekly lectures on the Playchess.com server. Tonight's lecture will be "Victor Bologan – Part two". Rogozenko says it will be easier for him than Part one, held two weeks ago. Nobody will ask "Who is Bologan?" and "Why are you showing us his games?". Our trainer dosn't have to prove that he is very strong GM and can concentrate on his games and winning strategy.
These are held every Thursday at 21:00h MET = 20:00h London and 3 p.m. NY. You can use Fritz or any Fritz-compatible program (Shredder, Junior, Tiger) to follow them, or download a free trial client here.
