Squares Strategy: Vol 3
The Bangiev way of thinking is a strategy based on squares. This means that before every move, the piece set-up is checked out against quite specific pre-defined criteria. The Bangiev-method does not develop your memory, but rather your thought processes: learn to understand the logic of the game by means of a few rules! In each phase of the game, you have to ask yourself the same restricted number of questions and then answer them. Once you have grasped the principle, you will be happy to realize how - after some practice - you can always find the best move yourself. You can test your progress by using Grandmaster games; this is because grandmasters make use of the correct thought process, without perhaps realizing that they are doing so!
