How to convert “a better position” into a WIN?

While playing a chess game, quite often you can obtain a SUPERIOR position.

• It could happen thanks to your good opening preparation.
• Sometimes your opponent plays badly.

After that you face the famous question in chess: “How to win a won game?”

This is not as simple as it seems. An opponent gets tricky and tries to mix the things up. Often you have to play precise moves under time pressure. Then you can spoil a good game, not getting a well-deserved win.

Of course you can blame “that lucky guy” (your opponent) for that, or grieve for“an oversight in time trouble”. That’s what most players do in such cases 

However, obviously there’s a better option. You can learn appropriate techniques and always finish your opponents off! Look at “chess killers” like Topalov, Carlsen, Adams etc. In a worse position, nobody can escape from them.

If your wish to acquire those skills of “a chess killer” – you are welcome to join my webinar on Saturday 27 September (4p.m., BST). You can get all the details and sign up for the webinar here:

Now let’s check how you should NOT play in won positions 

Caruana – NakamuraWhite’s turn

White is a pawn up and is pressuring Black’s position hardly. It’s almost winning.How to turn that “almost winning” into a real full score? What would you play as White?

Actually there are even a few ways for a quick win. You might be surprised to know that Caruana (rated 2801!) – managed to drew it!

After you came up with your own solution, please, check the actual game here:LINK
