Another great lesson Waldemar. I am increasing my already high respect for Karpov after your lectures!. He was truly a genius of positional chess whom we can learn from (of course through your explanations!)
Thanks!.
Pablo.
Thank you for the work “behind the scenes” to make this presentation possible. To analyze and to become as familiar with a game as you have to be to present this lesson takes a lot of time and energy.
