Chess Camp | Volume 5 | Two Move Checkmates | Igor Sukhin
Chess Camp is a comprehensive training system designed for beginner chess players, as well as the parents and coaches who teach them.
Starting with simple problems to illustrate key concepts and gradually progressing to more complex positions, students learn by doing—methodically integrating new information with previous knowledge while building effective thinking habits at the board.
In Two-Move Checkmates (the 5th volume in the Chess Camp series) you will be introduced to planning elements, aiming at a goal beyond the current move. You will also start to understand the need to consider the opponent's possible defences, practice visualising the board more than one move ahead, and discover the seemingly paradoxical idea of winning by sacrificing material.
- Features a vast collection of two-move checkmate puzzles designed to challenge and develop tactical skills
- Starts with simpler positions and gradually increases in complexity, helping players build confidence and skill
- Teaches common checkmating motifs, such as back-rank mates, smothered mates, and coordination of pieces
- Written in a clear and approachable style, ideal for young players or anyone new to chess
- Helps players develop the ability to recognize critical moments and execute decisive moves
