Synopsis


Choosing the subject wasn't easy at all,
since the topic of defense requires a comprehensive analysis from different
angles in order to give the chess player under pressure useful guidelines
during a game. Of course, the technical part is a matter of finding
challenging, new and interesting positions. I was struggling with describing
the emotions that we have during the game, how they influence our
decision-making process and what we can do about that. Hence, I tried the best
I could to define the issues the defender encounters during a stressful game.
Finally I am confidently sharing with you the lessons that I learned from sport
psychologists and literature, and my experience as a player over 30 years.
