Description / Street Smart Chess

Street Smart Chess is an expert guide to scoring more points at the chessboard. When does it pay off to play hard for a win? Or safe for a draw? And how do you adapt your playing style accordingly?

GM Axel Smith answers these questions and more by using a world-class player as a model for each chapter. Learn how Magnus Carlsen grinds out wins from level positions; how David Navara beats lower-rated opponents and how Baskaran Adhiban beats higher-rated ones! Or serve-and-volley in the opening like Peter Heine Nielsen.

Playing well is a good start in chess but you also need to be Street Smart.

Axel Smith is the award-winning author of The Woodpecker Method Pump Up Your Rating and e3 Poison which were all enthusiastically received by readers and reviewers. Using the Woodpecker as part of his training as an adult he improved from a rating of 2100 to becoming a Grandmaster.
