Foxy: Domination Studies for the Tournament Player Vol 1, 2 & 3 - Ron Henley (3 DVDs)
Hosted by GM Ron W. Henley, this is a 3-volume series that will open your mind to what is possible and essential to dominate your endgames. These amazing endgame compositions will help you become a better player and get to the next level. Domination on the chess board is based on controlling critical squares at decisive moments of a chess game – whether in the opening, middlegame or endgame.
Foxy 178: Dominate the Endgames Like 13 World Champions for the Tournament Player Vol 1 (DVD)
However, the endgame, due to the small amount of pieces on the board is the phase of the game where the importance of this concept is magnified as each piece assumes greater importance. Therefore it is no mere coincidence that all World Chess Champions have elements of domination in their endgame play. By reviewing these examples, it is my hope that you will become more alert and more aware of the domination possibilities in your own games.
DOMINATION themes can occur in several different types of endgames
Foxy 179: Domination Studies Ghenrikh Kasparyan for the Tournament Player Vol 2 (DVD)
Domination in 2545 Studies Ghenrikh Kasparyan
This classic work was first published in Russia in 1974 and then in English in 1980. It soon captured the imagination of serious chess players around the world. This work was produced in the era where computers were as yet of little use, making it a truly a monumental undertaking. It includes endgame studies of many of the finest chess composers in the world (primarily Russian). It became an indispensable training tool for generations of Russian Masters. Genrikh was an International Master and 10 time Armenian Champion.
Running Time: 125 minutes
Foxy 180: Domination Studies Bernhard Horwitz for the Tournament Player Vol 3 (DVD)
Bernhard Horwitz was a German master and chess writer. He went to school in Berlin, where he studied art. From 1837 to 1843, he was part of a group of German chess players known as “The Pleiades”. He moved to London in 1845. His best chess result was winning a match against Henry Bird in 1851. He played in the first international chess tournament, London 1851, but he is best known for being the first pioneer in problem and endgame composition. Horwitz’s Chess Studies (1851), co-authored with Joseph Kling was an important work at the time. Kasparyan’s “DOMINATION” features 70 of his studies, often being the first to use a theme which was later developed with greater depth and finesse by composers that followed.
