How to Swindle in Chess: snatch victory from a losing position
About this ebook
Andrew Soltis, American chess journalist, says swindles are not accidental or a matter of luck. Swindling is a skill. But there has been almost nothing written about how to do it, how to make yourself lucky in chess. Swindling means setting traps that exploit an opponent's over-confidence. It means choosing the move that has the greatest chance of winning, rather than the move that has the least chance of losing.
Soltis' new proposal will explain to players of all levels how to do just that with plenty of examples to explain along the way.
