It’s time to play Chess! In this lesson, NM Robert Ramirez puts in practice the different openings we have learned up to this point in the course. We start from only following the three principles of the opening as we learned them in lesson # 24 and continue to more sophisticated opening systems such as the King’s Indian Defense, Pirc Defense, Colle System, etc. This is the way your coach thinks anyone should learn openings.

National Master Robert Ramirez will take you up the pyramid by following a proven Chess training program he has been improving and implementing for over 10 years. Benefits of Playing Chess: ​- Promotes brain growth - Increases problem-solving skills - It exercises both sides of the brain - Raises your IQ - Sparks your creativity - Teaches planning and foresight - Teaches patience and concentration - Optimizes memory improvement - Improves recovery from stroke or disability - Helps treat ADHD Chess is an intellectual battle where players are exposed to numerous mental processes such as analysis, attention to detail, synthesis, concentration, planning and foresight. Psychological factors are also present on and off the board; playing Chess stimulates our imagination and creativity. Every single move a player makes is the result of a deep analysis based on the elements presented on the battlefield. Chess in its essence teaches us psychological, sociological and even moral values. In a Chess game, both players start with the same amount of material and time. The fact that the white pieces move first is considered to be practically irrelevant —especially because a player typically plays one game as white and one game as black. Consequently, the final result of the battle solely depends on each player. It doesn’t matter if you win by taking advantage of your opponent’s mistakes or by simply avoiding mistakes yourself. Truth is that Chess is an extremely individual sport and our defeats can only be blamed on ourselves and no one else. And this, in the end, only benefits us because we learn to be and feel responsible for our actions and never come up with excuses to justify ourselves. We also learn that when it comes to our victories on the board, our opponent's mistakes play a more significant role than our own skills. Let’s not forget that a Chess game without any mistakes would be a draw. This way, Chess provides us with another valuable life lesson: be humble at all times. www.chesslessonswithrobert.com
