Puddletown Chess - July Seminar

Welcome to Pudddletown’s 2025 July Webinar hosted by founder Ishaan Kodarapu! During this highly interactive session, Ishaan will share some key strategies to help our young chess players improve their game.

Key Tactics and Strategies and Takeaways:

• Decoy Sacrifices – Lure the opponent’s king or key piece to a vulnerable square with a calculated sacrifice.
• Pawn Storms – Launch aggressive pawn pushes to break open the enemy king’s defenses.
• Opening Lines of Attack – Use pawn breaks or trades to open files and diagonals toward the king.
• Coordination of Pieces – Combine your pieces effectively to maximize attacking power.
• Exploiting Tactical Opportunities – Spot and execute tactical shots like forks, pins, and skewers.
• Sacrifice Wisely – Give up material only when it leads to a stronger attack or strategic gain.
