Dynamic Play with Keres by USCF Expert Ryan Murphy uses the games of Paul Keres to showcase important concepts for playing dynamically.
In this course, Ryan uses instructive examples of Keres to illustrate the importance of activating all your pieces, focusing energetically on weaknesses in your opponent's position, and calculating accurately to bring home the full point. The course shows examples of aggressive play in the opening to punish a slow start from the opponent, how to organize your pieces to generate a strong attack in the middlegame, and how to create winning chances with the Black pieces through active play.
The course is designed for beginner and intermediate level players (Elo 1000-1500), but can be useful for stronger players too. This course includes four video lessons with a total run time of 1 hour and 39 minutes that are accompanied by four PGN files related to the lessons.
