I implement the 'Woodpecker Method' to study chess tactics using a special function in Chessbase 16 called Replay Training, and show how this all works. After, of course, I start my tactics session. A tough but fascinating session, with successes and failures. The PGN I used for the tactics is linked below, and will be updated over time.

What is 'Study Chess with me'?

Join me on this chess journey to improve our chess as we study chess together. I will study chess tactics, as well as chess strategy learning from Ludek Pachman's masterpiece, "Complete Chess Strategy", and studying endgames from Mark Dvoretsky in his magnum opus, "Dvoretsky's Endgame Manual".

I share my spontaneous comments and impressions as I work through it all, including live recorded failures and successes as I work the exercises. You are invited to study the same material at the same time, or to just put the video on while you study chess on your own, and I study alongside you.

Let's take our chess to the next level!
