Chessable Reviews and Details

Social recommendations and mentions

• I do not understand why this is losing material.

  I think its saying that because at chessable.com it said that knight has 3 points and rook has 5 points you take back but rook is still better than knight and the game thinks that promoting to queen isn't gaining any material. Source: about 3 years ago

  Chessable: Interactive chess books. Some recommended courses:. Source: about 3 years ago

• Should I buy courses from chessly or buy chess.com premium

  Chess.com membership on TOP. Get the gold one. Not the platinum. Chess.com already gives you a way to analyze. I don't see why you need an engine to say if the move is good or bad when you literally can analyze on your own. The lessons are very good. Some go over fundamentals that gothamchess courses have (Middlegame masterclass, beginner course, and intermediate course). Also while chess.com lessons doesn't have... Source: over 3 years ago

• End game King side pawn verse Queenside pawn majority

  Would someone be open to giving feedback on end-game principles or ideas I should have thought about or be thinking about in this position? I've practiced end games pawns verse pawns and such on chessable.com but I think im missing some "known theory" that my opponents have from chess coaches/years of experience heh.

• Is it even worth buying chess books?

  But in the end, if I'm going to buy a book, I prefer a book that is a book that doesn't contain a lot of analysis, and teaches you the basics of chess. For that purpose I recommend Chessable, and the other one, Chessable. Source: over 3 years ago

• Is there a book that's easy to use with a mouse that has images of different chess games, and is easy to find for free?

  There are some of those sites I think. The easiest is chessable.com. It's the best one for learning the theory of chess and the most practical for learning openings. There are others that I think are great. Chessable has a lot of resources and resources to help you improve. Source: about 4 years ago

• I'm so glad you were able to bring this up.

  If you are looking for a free online resource to learn a game, I would recommend Chess.com or Chessable.com. I would recommend one of these two because they have a large selection of free lessons, and they have a very decent and helpful community. It's free and has a strong community.

• Haven't painted in a while but I'm finally getting comfortable with color and shading and I just want to share.

  This is pretty cool. I can always use my chess set to do a custom set. I think there's a better way to do a set from the chessable or chessable.com store. Source: about 4 years ago

• What is the best strat in Othello? I have been trying different strats, but some people seem to always be able to win against me anyways.

  If you want to learn the game, I'd recommend playing it, but you need to know the rules of the game. There are tons of resources on YouTube, like Chessable, Chess24, lichess etc. I would say the only good place to start is chess.com. Source: about 4 years ago

• Interview help!

  I don't really have a good answer for you. I only know that you need to watch the first two episodes of the interviews for a good understanding of the themes you're looking for. You could also look at the comments on the first two episodes, and see how you came up with the plans for each episode. You can then take a look at the first two episodes, and try to see what the themes are. Then try to think about... Source: over 4 years ago

• The new "physics of the Universe" book by John Conway and Neil deGrasse Tyson. It has the highest-quality introduction to modern physics by a physicist. The book also contains an "anti-physics" disclaimer.

  I'd be interested in the book! I'd put it up on r/AnarchyChess. I also think it should be available as a free download on chessable.com. Source: over 4 years ago

• Be honest with me; you all hate Chess too right?

  As for rating, I don't have one. I have a (paid) chess.com and lichess.org accounts (not to mention chessable.com and chesstempo.com) but no actual rating. Source: over 4 years ago

• Looking for a Strategy Book "replacement" for Modern Chess Strategy. Something in Algebraic Notation.

  Working On: Logical Chess: Move by Move and Chess Tactics for Students. Playing games (with analysis) and doing puzzles. Also slowly going through some free Openings courses on chessable.com (I found Smithy's Opening Fundamentals to be an excellent course).*. Source: over 4 years ago

• Opening Trainers with built-in repertories?

  Have you checked out chessable.com? They have resources for building an opening repertoire, quite a bit of free courses as well that offer more than enough lines. Source: over 4 years ago

• Why is CARO-KANN a good opening?

  "Black can play very solidly, extremely aggressively or in highly creative fashion. It is unusual for an opening to offer the second player such a range of approaches." ~~ chessable.com. Source: almost 5 years ago

• Learn in the wrong order

  If you follow me on Twitter you may have noticed that I’ve been getting back into playing and studying chess. As is my standard with hobbies, this includes listening to podcasts about it. A new podcast by Chessable called How to Chess (Episode 3 - Getting past a rating plateau) touched on a concept that I find extremely important to learning beyond chess - the idea of min/max learning vs fun. - Source: dev.to / almost 5 years ago
