An attack on the castled king cannot be successfully carried out on the basis of the attacker's wishes or 'brilliance' alone, but the essential conditions must also be present. The preconditions are: control of the center; prevention of counter play on the queen side; proper posting of the attacker's pieces; weakening the castled King's defenses. We will discuss these preconditions using examples from classical games.

The Oregon All Stars invites the top 10 students from each age category, as well as Order of the Knight award recipients to compete at the Hilton DoubleTree Hotel in Portland!

Welcome to Pudddletown's December Seminar with FIDE master and Women International Master Zoey Tang!

There are two winning scenarios in chess: win yourself or let your opponent lose. You can win a game without showing good play, but it is impossible to win without an opponent's mistake. In a sense, the strategy for success in chess is not to make mistakes yourself (or at least less than your opponent) and force him to do so.
