Key Concepts of Chess - Pawn Structures Vol. 1 | Grooten, Herman

Herman Grooten: Key Concepts of Chess - Pawn Structures Vol. 1 Open-, Half-Open Files and The Pawn Chain In this series it's all about strategy for club players, explained in a simple way with clear examples! The idea is to focus on certain themes using specific pawn structures. The central question is: how can the pieces be manoeuvred into good positions and what should we then consider? IM Herman Grooten will offer rules-of-thumb and concepts to give clubchess players the necessary guidance to try and find the right paths in their own games. In this two-part course the emphasis will be on typical pawn-structures, ones that appear quite often in games and that will be very recognisable to club-chess players. Hence, the topics 'Open and half-open files' and 'the pawn chain' will be covered extensively on this video course. . Video running time: 6 hours 30 min (English) .
