Description of the course:
Modern chess = DYNAMIC chess
Modern chess, thanks to our ‘silicon friends’ Fritz, Houdini, and company, have advanced to a level that is never seen before!
Just have a look at today’s GM games – full of tactical twists and turns, intense fight for the initiative, sacrifices for dynamic compensation, and mind-boggling complications in ALL phases of the game.
Gone Are The Days When You Can Single-Mindedly Follow An Abstract Plan And Win Games!
True, positional play and strategic understanding are still important. But…
If you do NOT have a SHARP EYE for tactics
If you do NOT have an EFFICIENT calculation technique
If you do NOT have CRYSTAL-CLEAR visualization skills
If you do NOT have an EFFICIENT calculation technique
If you do NOT have CRYSTAL-CLEAR visualization skills
…You will continuously get outclassed by players who are strong in these departments.
You will LOSE to a tactical oversight after playing 40 good moves game after game after game.
You will NOT realize your FULL chess potential.
You will LOSE to a tactical oversight after playing 40 good moves game after game after game.
You will NOT realize your FULL chess potential.
You only have two choices: adapt to this trend or be left out frustrated as your chess results rot away and your progress stalled.
So what is the improving chess amateur to do!?
Are you still with me? Have you decided to keep up with the trend and play DYNAMIC chess? Good! That goes to show that you really want to get better at chess. But now, we come to another cross-road… another branching point where you have to make a crucial choice.
When it comes to training tactics, calculation, and visualization skills, you ONLY have 2 options.
The First Option: To Do What Everyone Else Have Been Doing
And that involves:
(1) solving truckloads of tactical exercises and
(2) reading or watching game analysis of strong tactical GMs.
And that involves:
(1) solving truckloads of tactical exercises and
(2) reading or watching game analysis of strong tactical GMs.
Take a close and objective look at the chess DVDs, databases, training software & programs, etc. You will soon realize that, while their titles are different, they are published by different authors, ALL of them only offer either or both of the above training methods.
So what’s the problem with that? A BIG ONE I’d have to say!
I’m pretty sure you have solved & waded through thousands of tactical exercises yourself, and watched GMs like Anand, Shirov, Kasparov, and other heavy-weights analyze their very best and most entertaining games.
Here’s an honest question that needs an honest answer. By doing the above OVER and OVER again…
Can You HONESTLY Say That Your Tactical Skills Got BETTER, Your Calculation Got More EFFICIENT, And Your Chess Vision Got SHARPER?
I bet NO, otherwise, you wouldn’t be here in search of a SOLID and RELIABLE way to take your dynamic chess skills to the next level!
Yes, the well-known methods are lacking.
They are easy to do: just solve puzzles and check the solution, sit back and relax as your favorite players comment their games. However, when it comes to the improving your game, they’re a cut or two short.
You can stick with the traditional methods of training your tactics, calculation, and visualization skills… which DON’T bring significant progress.
OR, you can go for the Second Option…
To Use A COMPLETE Training System That’s Been Used Only By My SELECT Chess Students And Close Friends…
One That Has CONSISTENTLY Brought Success!

Now, I’m the type of chess coach and GM who wants to make sure you know what you are getting… and I’m also pretty sure you are excited to know what’s inside the videos..
Eight chess lectures oozing with game-changing training methods and tools are waiting for you!
The very first video lesson is all about setting the SOLID and RIGHT foundations for the intense training and games ahead. No fillers – in this video, we get down to business right away by showing you the DEEPEST and MOST FUNDAMENTAL tactical knowledge.
After setting the foundation, we will now look at what it takes to be a VERY good at chess calculation (Hint: There are 3 skills you need to have). We will take a look at:
Your training to be a world-class calculator continues with this video lesson. Building up from the previous video, I will REVEAL:t:
With the thorough explanation about the process of calculation provided on Lecture #2, it’s now time to get down on specific techniques and tricks to make you a SHARPER and far more EFFICIENT calculator!
You will learn:
And those are just to name a few!
Applying ALL of the techniques and tips from the previous lesson will make you a formidable player, but we will take your performance level up another notch with this lesson! We will weed out the bad mental approaches from the good.
You will learn:
In the previous lessons, the whole calculation process has been ripped apart into bite-sized and easy-to-digest chunks. For the fifth lesson, the spotlight focuses on combinations! Yeah, the stuff that has and continues to mesmerize and motivate us to play chess!
But this time, you are more than a spectator to jaw-dropping combinations. You will learn how to produce these sparkling combinations and sacrificesin your own games!
After this lesson, you will have a solid and deeply-grounded understanding of combinations…and finding and playing them on your games will be so MUCH easier!
Understanding how combinations work and having the right mental approach and tools will make it 10 times easier to find and play such ‘shockers’. Now, imagine if you learn ALL of the main combinations? That would only sharpen your combinational and tactical vision!
And that’s precisely what you will get in the 6th lesson. I will show you all of the typical combinations that should be in your arsenal.
Along with that, you will learn:
Along with that, you will learn:
With the 6 previous lessons, the focus was giving you the right tools and orienting you on the necessary skills needed for improving your tactics, calculation, and visualization by leaps and bounds.
In the 7th lesson, I will show you, STEP-BY-STEP, how you can train these skills. I will REVEAL:
The Practical Part –
the course’s unique training program.
the course’s unique training program.
No chess improvement program would be complete without the MUCH-NEEDED training program to make sure lessons sink in and to automate the skills necessary to transform your game and chess performance.
We now come to my most favorite part of the course – the Practical Part. Day-in and day-out, following this program down to the “T” will let you experience the AMAZING progress and success that my private students have been enjoying in secret!
These tasks have been built from the ground up to make sure that your tactics, calculation, and visualization skills get the MASSIVE boost it needs!
From writing down your current calculation system to pinpoint deficiencies, analyzing strategically and tactically complex positions, naming the combinational motifs used, to playing and replaying games blindfold, “Calculate Till Mate” covers ALL!
The MAIN Tasks Are STEP-BY-STEP! – They are carefully designed and sequenced to develop your visualization technique and blindfold skills in the BEST way possible!
These are not rehashed from other sources and chess books! Long hours have been spent to make sure that you get the MOST instructive and challenging chess positions and games. Study them and CAREFULLY follow the steps and you will be rewarded with MORE rating points and MORE wins!
Note: These tasks are NOT easy. They will push you and your chess skills to the LIMIT… and going through them CAREFULLY, through the DETAILED steps I outline, will reward you with enhanced tactical ‘muscles’, calculation skills with laser-like precision, and visualization skills with UNRIVALLED clarity!
principles without giving you any idea how to use them – this is the biggest mistakes chess books make. But “CALCULATE TILL MATE” fills the gap by showing you not just the principles and components of a good chess thought process… I will show you how to put them together for maximum improvement!
I’ll hand-hold you throughout the process, to make sure you do everything right!
After careful study of the course and religiously doing the tasks, you will be transformed to a UNIVERSAL player who can play good positional moves, build up his position, and play swashbuckling tactical blows when the chance arises!
Reviews:
“This new course is only for serious students.”
Kesaris Aggelos (Greece):
One of my bigest weakness as a chess player is that I can’t calculate well the variations. I had noticed many times in my games, analyzing them with the computer, that I have lost many opportunities to give the final blow.
I know many theoritician chess players who can easily give new thoeries, but even them they can’t apply it in practice. Through this course I learned all the practical tips and I can easily apply them in my games.
The winner is acting. They do everything to get what they want! GM Smirnov said is clear. The new courses are only for serious students. If you do not feel ready to join our team, do not feel guilty … Maybe you can in other life who knowes…
Now I should go because i have to continue my study … I want to perfect all my new weapons, and beet everybody!
“A revolutionary change in my Middle game”
Bidyut Bikash Handique (India):
This course is belonged to those players who are suffering from several drawbacks in their Middle game play, i.e, poor system of calculation, not finding the best move at the critical moment, always spending much time in making a crucial decision and lack of visualization.
After completing this course, I have increased my confidence level to such an extent, resulting 14th consecutive wins in playchess and increasing 160 point within 3 days there, which gave me a revolutionary change in my play and of course it was a dream for me at one time.
I have to agree that this course “Calculate Till Mate” is a gateway to those players like me who are suffering from middle game inconsistency.
Everything is clear to me now, and I can handle the middle game situation more comfortably than I did before studying this course. I appreciate GM Smirnov in this regard for not hesitating to reveal the secrets of calculation, the way GMs apply. I also promote this course to all my students without any hesitation. .

“I should be getting a norm for a master soon”
Alexander Bai (United States):
I first purchased the course “GMs Secrets” before this one. It was very useful to me: Before I had been training in the wrong way,(like doing a lot of “White/Black to play and win puzzles) and got rather low results from my time spent. Now my improvement is steady and satisfactory.
I have always had problems with calculation, so I considered purchasing the new course. When I saw the price of “Calculate Till Mate”, I honestly felt doubtful that it may not be worth it. How totally wrong I was!
