Most chess games of beginners and post-beginners are decided by
fairly straightforward tactics. Anyone who wants to progress beyond
this level and become a strong club player or a candidate master,
needs to understand that somewhat mysterious-looking resource, the
positional sacrifice. International Master Merijn van Delft has
studied and loved positional sacrifices for as long as he can
remember. This non-forcing tool is not just a surprising and highly
effective way of creating a decisive advantage during a game.
Positional sacrifices are also instruments of superior beauty. Van
Delft has created a unique thematic structure for all types of
positional sacrifices. He shows the early historical examples,
explains which long-term goals are typical for each fundamental
theme and presents lots of instructive modern examples. He then
concentrates on those sacrifices that have become standard features
of positional play. Solving the exercises he has added will further
enhance your skills. Playing a positional sacrifice will always
require courage. Merijn van Delft takes you by the hand and not
only teaches the essential technical know-how, he also helps you to
recognize the opportunities when to take the plunge. Mastering
Positional Sacrifices is bound to become a modern-day classic.
