After reading Kasparov’s autobiographical work, with the very modest title: “Garry Kasparov on Garry Kasparov”, (more details about this book can be found here) I have realized that, apart from being aesthetic masterpieces, Kasparov’s games have a HUGE educational value: they present great training material, especially for calculation exercise.
Starting from today, new series of posts, titled Play like Kasparov will become available on the blog. We will regularly choose a certain Kasparov game, select a couple of interesting positions and post them as a tactical exercise, together with the solution.
Learn from the games of the 13th World Champion. Exercise calculation as you go through the key position of Garry’s career.
