250 Checkmate Exercises For Beginners - Volume 2

By Sam Cicero

Improve your game by studying 250 checkmate exercises This book presents 250 mate in 1 exercises from recent tournament games, and it is a sequel to 250 Checkmate Exercises For Beginners (www.amazon.com/dp/B075DCSD6L). The exercises are easier than those contained in my book, 250 Checkmate Exercises For Improving Players (www.amazon.com/dp/B073TCVQSK), and they are more suited to beginners or players who have little experience in chess. The exercises are from games involving players with an Elo rating in the range of 1200 - 1800.The exercises are split into two chapters. The first chapter has 150 exercises, while the second chapter has 100 exercises. In the first chapter, the position is given just before the mate is possible, and the reader is required to find the mate. In the second chapter, the position is given before the loser's last move is made. The task is to visualise this move, and then to find the mate. There is only one move for each exercise that leads to a mate in 1.All the exercises are particularly good for developing quick board vision, and the aim is to solve these exercises quickly. Of course, the exercises in second chapter require more work. However, these exercises will extend the reader's visualisation skills, which are fundamentally important in chess.Detailed solutions are provided for all the exercises, and they have been computer-checked by several strong chess engines for accuracy.The book will be a valuable resource for beginners players, and it will give the reader many hours of instruction and entertainment.Buy your copy today and start winning more games
