Renowned coach GM Bryan Smith reveals…

In 1983, Garry Kasparov was storming onto the chess scene combining enormous energy with eye-bulging aggression and computer-like super-deep calculations…

Even seasoned veterans like Korchnoi were swept up in the whirlwind of tactical complications.

But then, in 1984, he met an opponent he could barely budge…

This guy somehow sidestepped all of Kasparov’s attacks and calmly attained a nice positional edge…

…then he squeezed and squeezed and squeezed until the victory was certain.

No risk. No complications. No need to worry.

This strategic maestro was the 12th World Champion, Anatoly Karpov.

This course is an eye-opening look into Karpov’s most instructive games covering the early childhood years, his rise to the top, and his legendary years as World Champion.

In Learn from Anatoly Karpov, GM Bryan Smith takes you on a 10-hour journey through Karpov’s entire career and skillfully extracts the most instructive nuggets for you to model and improve your own chess.

If you’re ready to delve into one of the deepest minds in chess history, now is your chance to learn all there is that Karpov’s games have to offer.

You’ll Discover Karpov’s Most Powerful Secrets like…

  • How Karpov Dismantled Spassky with CLINICAL Precision! Was this the game that gave Fischer second thoughts about facing Karpov? Spassky’s Sicilian was torn apart without violence – only surgeon-like precision and powerful positional play! (See Chapter 7)

    Karpov-Spassky after 25.Kh2!
  • The Method to Effortlessly Handle Kasparov…as Black! Learn to put up that “Karpov Brickwall” that even the most powerful attacker in history could not break through! (See Chapter 21)
  • How Karpov Used Prophylaxis…even in the Ultra-Sharp Dragon…and CRUSHED Korchnoi! Karpov was a positional player, but he could certainly attack as well…in this example, GM Smith shows you a stunning game where Karpov attacks, stops for a moment to prevent ALL counterplay (with a single move!), and then resume his attack. Highly instructive for aspiring club players! (See Chapter 16)
