Opponent blundered a knight and a pawn, so it’s a game I *should* win, but the clock was getting pretty low (for me) towards the end and I’m really happy with how I countered black’s final attack, ultimately leading to a discovered attack on the queen that resulted in a resignation.

About half-way through the course. My inclination with stuff like this is to “binge” it, but I’m taking my time enough to practice and make sure the lessons stick. Really great content so far and looking forward to more.

Thought I’d share!

Soon after, opponent moved his king and blundered into a king/queen knight fork, then abandoned.

You can select the “themes” relating to the tactics you’re working on, adding more as you work through the course.

Hi Mr. Lopez, I’m in module 4 currently. The Course has been very helpful. I think I definitely need more tactics puzzles for each specific tactic to practice. Could you please give me […]
