Do You Want Chess Books to Publish Your Games As Examples Of Outstanding Endgame Play With a Crystal Clear Style of Playing??
Somewhere between Capablanca and Karpov will be OK 🙂With the course “AN ENDGAME EXPERT” this will definitely become your reality!
How to win in modern chess?
Today everyone has access to huge chess databases. Everyone can learn plenty of opening lines and numerous ‘typical’ middlegame positions.
Any chess player can prepare something against you using powerful computer programs. So the problem is – how can you win?
In a chess game, you should always attack your opponent’s weakest squares. Likewise in a preparation, you should “attack” your opponent’s weakest areas.
Hit in the WEAKEST point!
The majority of modern chess players do NOT have a real (deep) strategic understanding. They can attack and use tactics. However, even titled players are often weak in strategic positions.
Computer engines can show you the move, but they cannot EXPLAIN it. That’s why players know how to play, but don’t understand it!
So, how do we use our opponents’ low level of chess understanding to our advantage? You should take them into a chess endgame!

About the Author:
Igor Smirnov is an International Grandmaster from Ukraine, currently rated 2507 Fide.
He is also a Chess Coach and holds a Master’s degree in Psychology.
GM Smirnov has developed numerous chess lessons, articles, webinars and training courses, including the famous courses that have helped many players of all levels improve their chess skills and break their barriers to climb up to higher new levels.
During his chess career as a player and as a coach Smirnov was looking for an effective way of learning all the time, that’s why He decided to develop a chess course for beginners, “The Grandmaster’s secrets”.
With pride, I can say that this course will give you only the concrete skills (no more pointless knowledge!).
The effectiveness of Smirnov’s teaching system was proven by his own practice and the results of many of his pupils.
Is this course for me?
The chess course “An Endgame Expert” is the all-in-one system of playing in a chess endgame.
In the opening and middlegame stage concrete (sudden) tactical variations often determine the situation. In a chess endgame, you should use only your strategic understanding.
That is why a majority of players do NOT know what to do in an endgame at all! Even modern Grandmasters have tremendous problems here.
Here are some of the things you’ll get with this chess endgame training program:
- It gives you ALL you need to know about any endgame.
- It shows you how endgame Masters think and how they come to the right moves.
- It gives you a step-by-step algorithm of thinking, which allows you to find the best move in any endgame position.
- Thus, you will be able to imitate an endgame Expert’s thinking process and achieve the same great results!
- My experience shows that serious students obtain 200-300 rating points after learning from my chess courses.
Endgame books do NOT help.
Endgame books mainly analyze theoretical positions. However, in 95% of situations, you will reach a practical endgame position with many pieces still on the board. An endgame theory can NOT help here (whereas a strategic understanding will!).
That is why learning thousands of theoretical positions will NOT help. I say:“Leave this titanic and pointless work to your opponents!”
Learning Chess Endgames Amplifies Your Positional Play Automatically.

This all has to do with a strategic understanding.
Remember the famous endgame masters: Capablanca, Flohr, Smyslov, Karpov, Kramnik… They all have a crystal-clear caliber of playing. They all almost never make mistakes. They all almost never lose games in the opening.
Their deep strategic understanding prevents them from making mistakes! They attained this understanding while perfecting the endgame skills!
That is why Capablanca recommended starting learning chess from the endgame phase! Endgame expertise bears a positive influence on all other parts of your game as well.
