Play Winning Chess by Grandmaster Yasser Seirawan
Winning Chess Series

Play Winning Chess is an enthusiastic introduction to chess that will transform you into a veritable gladiator of the chessboard.

Yasser Seirawan begins by explaining piece movement, chess notation, the rules of play and basic tactics. His examples, question-and-answer sections, psychological hints, and lively sample games help you learn strategies and play aggressively while having fun. Discovering how to engage in clever attacks and subtle defenses will take you beyond the thrill of competition into the realm of creative art.

Play Winning Chess is exuberant and conversational, enlivened by personal anecdotes and fascinating historical details.

Yasser Seirawan, born 1960, is a 4-time US Champion, and 13 times US international, representing the US first time in the 1980 Chess Olympiad, and last time at the 2011 World Team Championship, where he won a personal silver medal and defeated Polgar and Mamedyarov.

In his long career he managed to defeat six World Champions: Smyslov, Tal, Spassky, Karpov, Kasparov, Topalov and Anand. His highest World Ranking was no. 4 in 1982.

In the last decade he has mostly worked as a live commentator for top level events, such as the US Championship and the Grand Chess Tour.

Yasser Seirawan knows winning chess.
