Description

This week, Neal begins by diving into the listener mailbag. This is followed by an instructive analysis of a recent OTB tournament game. We cover the following and more:

  • A common piece of chess coaching advice that is often more idealistic than realistic
  • The Pirc Defense (1. e4 d6)
  • Play in the center
  • Queen's Indian Defense
  • Exchange sequences
  • Rook and pawn endings
  • The OTB thought process
