Is this course for me?
With this amazing chess course featuring a former world champion, any aspiring club player who wants to study one of the greatest chess players of all time has an excellent and easy-to-access resource at hand.
You’ll explore many of the strategies and tactics that brought Karpov success at key moments in his career.
Here are some of the things you’ll be able to learn:

Minority Attack
Minority Attack
White has conducted a classic queenside minority attack and seems to be reaping the rewards. The black pawns on c6 and d5 are weak and fixed, and Karpov’s rook pair does not seem too imposing – for the moment!
However, Karpov’s rooks are doubled on the half-open e-file and he does have space on the kingside. Karpov plays 36…h4! Karpov begins stirring up kingside counterplay.
White plays 37.g4, naturally wanting to keep the kingside blocked and focus on his queenside plans. Now Karpov makes a temporary pawn sacrifice to activate his light square Bishop 37… f5!?

Space Advantage
Space Advantage
On the white side of a Spanish Breyer Defense, Karpov obtained a connected passed d-pawn and his f5 pawn offered him a kingside space advantage.
However, the White light-squared Bishop on d3 is a bit boxed in and Black does have a beautifully posted Knight on c3 and a 2–1 queenside pawn majority.
**Karpov’s plan is:**
- Eliminate the intruder on c3 thereby reducing Black’s chances for queenside counterplay.
- White will then increase his kingside space advantage.
- Utilize his superior mobility to break down the black defenses.
With this amazing chess course featuring the legendary Anatoly Karpov, you’ll be able to study one of the greatest chess players of all time and implement his technique in your own games against your opponents.
