Awesome article! I typically just throw my pieces all around the board – sometimes close to the enemy king – and hope that by some miracle I find a checkmate. Thanks for all this great advice!
Glad you found it useful, Nathan, you're welcome! Throwing your pieces all around the board doesn't sound like a bad strategy when you're on the ropes.
Nice article - quite a few points I hadn't heard of before. Also probably one of the toughest areas to train in one's chess game, because defending a tough position often involves a ton of small micro decisions - as opposed to finding one good move and problem solved, as you would have in most puzzles.
Thanks Sam. Yeah, very hard area to train, and great point. Perhaps the tougher the area, the more you need to suffer against stronger players in that area to try and absorb it.
