In the new issue, CBM #209, he reveals how you should play in must-win situations. You certainly know such situations too – what would you tend to do? Play a risky opening line? Seek sacrifices? Try to put your opponent under time pressure? Jan Markos’ recommendations go in a completely different direction. You can watch an excerpt from his video here. Have a look!
