Why not study chess with Magnus Carlsen, Wesley So, and MVL?
You are playing a chess tournament soon. All your rivals and friends
(and foes, of course) are competing in this event. You need to prepare if
you want to beat them or fight for a good prize. You could start your opening
database, but the huge amount of chess variations bores you. It is just
too much for you. You need a simpler way to understand everything and win
games.
If you are a chess coach, you will face a similar problem for
your student. It is almost like being a parent. After all, when you are
a chess coach, you are a part of your student. A key to the child's hidden
talent.
Old examples are becoming outdated. Positional chess theory, opening
theory, and even endgame theory has advanced so much that examples from
the past are simply not powerful enough. You will need training material
for improving your chess that is modern and fresh, right? What if you get
the world's best players to teach you chess – for just €19.95?

The ChessBase magazine 174 is here! Price:
€19.95 – as much as a modest restaurant meal
When was the last time you understood deeply what positional theme, or
exact calculation Magnus Carlsen was thinking about while playing a high-level
game? If you run up to Magnus after his game and ask, 'Hey Magnus, why did
you play this move?' or, 'What thinking process do you use to make these
strong moves?', there is a good chance that he will not answer!

But in the ChessBase Magazine, CBM 174 that is, Magnus Carlsen will sit
with you and explain his thought process in detail! You get to see how a
living World Champion himself thinks! Magnus analyzes in great detail his
game against Wesley So in the Bilbao tournament that he won comfortably.
The complete analysis is available in PGN! Use it the way you want.

Wesley So is a super grandmaster of amazing
talent. Even he will explain his thought process to you by analyzing his
win over Veselin Topalov from the Sinquefield Cup, a tourney that he won.

Maxime Vachier-Lagrave, famous as MVL, is currently
the world No. 2!
In CBM 174 MVL has analyzed his win over Fabiano Caruana with the black
pieces in a Sicilian Najdorf, in a video interview. MVL is by far the best
player in Najdorf positions and you will also learn from the best!
But that is not all, the World No. 2 has also analyzed his tricky win against
Peter Svidler from the Biel tournament in great depth! You can find the
games online, but will you be able to find how MVL made those moves and
found them? His thought system? You can find it only in CBM 174.
