Strategy 5

A bishop is only as good as the diagonals it can use. Learn to judge bishops by your own pawn structure.

The three classic structural weaknesses: how to recognise them, how to attack them and how to live with them.

Every exchange changes the position. Learn the questions that tell you whether a trade helps you or your opponent.

Where you have more pawns than your opponent, you can make a passed pawn. Where you have fewer, you can create a weakness.

Advanced pawns give your pieces room and cramp the opponent. Learn what a space advantage buys and how the cramped side fights back.
