Schaak Computer DGT Centaur

afmeting: 48 x 48 cm

Perfekt met schaakstukken n°5.

Grote tuinschaakstukken (groote van de koning: 62cm). De schaakstukken zijn scheidbaar in verschillende onderdelen, waardoor ze makkelijk opbergbaar zijn en ballast mogelijk is voor het gewenste gewicht.

Un rappel d'abord pour ceux qui ne maîtrise pas complètement l'anglais, 'strategic' se traduit par 1 d4 . Ce cher John nous offre un répertoire fouillé et hautement raisonnable, mélange de variantes bien rodées (Carlsbad, Nimzo Rubinstein) de trucs à la mode destinés à éviter la théorie (e3 contre la Slave) et de machins un peu plus marginaux (5.h3 conte l'Est indienne). Bonnes explications comme d'habitude. Recommandable!

The chess triumphs of the Polgar sisters are legendary. Now, in this very special book, Sofia Polgar tells her own exceptional story: from her development as a prodigy and remarkable tournament successes to her eventually settling down, with chess occupying a lesser role as she raised a family.

Sofia presents many of her games, each with her own brand of fireworks. Clear, straightforward annotations allow the reader to appreciate her accomplishments on the board, while away from the board, her many personal memoirs complete the picture.

There are many photographs, many of which haver never been previously published. They nicely complement the chronicle of both her meteoric rise in the chess world and her loving family who encouraged her at every turn.

What is not generally known is that Sofia Polgar is also a gifted artist – a talented painter. Dozens of examples of her brilliant creativity on canvas are featured throughout this large format book. These paintings are presented in full color and on special matte paper to enhance the reader’s viewing enjoyment. 290 bl.
