The correct exchange is one of the most important topics in chess. This applies to the opening and the middle game as well as to the endgame. Less experienced players usually only associate exchange with capturing pieces of equal material value, without taking strategic factors into account. When exchanging pieces, however, it is not a matter of calculating the resulting material ratio, but also of recognizing the consequences for the evaluation of the position after the exchange. The "feeling" for the correct exchange - players such as Capablanca or Karpov once achieved unrivaled mastery here - must gradually develop in a chess player over time. This DVD is intended to help with this. On this DVD, I aim to name and answer the questions related to the topic of "exchange" using instructive sample games in order to train the "feeling" for dealing with it.
