Risk & Bluff in Chess - The Art of Taking Calculated Risks
You cannot win in chess without taking risks. Winning requires courage and psychology. No matter how deep you calculate, there always comes a point where you have to deal with uncertainties and make a decision. What is a carefully calculated risk, and what is a bluff? Why were famous players like Lasker and Tal so successful with both? They realized that chess is not a science. Emotions also play a role behind the board. If you can guess what your opponent is feeling and thinking, you are ahead of him.
