About this product

Product Information

A fully comprehensive guide to a much-neglected chess topic - using skill rather than luck to heat your opponent in the art of swindling. Renowned chess writer Andrew Soltis presents a new take on an under-appreciated strategy in chess, packed with tips, tricks and illustrated examples to guide you on your way to victory. This book is the perfect shortcut to success by setting strategic steps to exploit your opponents' over confidence. In chess, a swindle is a ruse by which a player in a losing position sets traps to exploit an opponent's over-confidence, and thereby achieves a win or draw instead of the expected loss. Written by the hugely popular chess writer Andrew Soltis. How to Swindle in Chess tells you how to make your own luck in chess; how to choose the move that has the greatest chance of winning rather than the least chance of losing. Though widely ignored by virtually all chess books, swindling plays an integral rote in deciding the fate of numerous games, and this invaluable book will help you improve your own game. International Grandmaster Andrew Soltis is a chess columnist for the New York Post and a highly respected chess writer. He is the author of many books, including Bobby Fischer Rediscovered, 365 Chess Master Lessons and What it Takes to Became a Chess Master. Book jacket.

Product is 95% alike picture but a little more blurry. Controller play well but had a notice from psn that my joypad wasn't authentic and could by problematic🤷‍♂️ no trouble so far! Shipping was fast but no tracking and worst packaging ever.. like the box came banged up... send a question to seller never had a reply 😅.... Good product overall, excellent price, fast shipping, wrapped only on 4 sides out of 6, no tracking and never reply... 4★ product / 2★ seller ✌️

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
