Garry Kimovich Kasparov (born Garik Kimovich Weinstein on 13 April 1963) is a Russian chess grandmaster, former World Chess Champion (1985-2000), political activist and writer. His peak FIDE chess rating of 2851, achieved in 1999, was the highest recorded until being surpassed by Magnus Carlsen in 2013. From 1984 until his retirement from regular competitive chess in 2005, Kasparov was ranked world no. 1 for a record 255 months overall. Kasparov also holds records for the most consecutive professional tournament victories (15) and Chess Oscars (11). Kasparov played in a total of eight Chess Olympiads. After winning the prestigious Linares tournament for the ninth time, Kasparov announced on 10 March 2005 that he would retire from regular competitive chess. He cited as the reason a lack of personal goals in the chess world. Kasparov came out of retirement to participate in the inaugural St. Louis Rapid and Blitz tournament from 14 to 19 August 2017, scoring 3.5/9 in the rapid and 9/18 in the blitz. Since retiring from chess, Kasparov has devoted his time to writing and politics. His book series My Great Predecessors, first published in 2003, details the history and games of the world champion chess players who preceded him. The content include introduction, basic tactical ideas, further tactical ideas, the f7-square, the back rank, checkmating attacks, danger in the opening, puzzles, and solutions. Tactical play is the nitty-gritty of chess. It's the stuff that players are trying to work out when they say to themselves, If I go there and he goes there . and then I check him with the knight . now, what can he do . etc. At a social or weak club level, virtually 100% of games are decided for tactical reasons. If you want to play good chess you have to understand tactics. It's that simple! Checkmate Tactics, written by the greatest chess player of all time, will help you achieve this goal. This book will help you learn how to recognize the critical positions that come from pins, forks, skewers, overloaded pieces, as well as many other tactical themes. You will learn to avoid allowing your opponent these possibilities and also to exploit them yourself. Presumed First Everyman Chess Edition, First printing. N° de réf. du vendeur 88648
