Master Positional Dominance in Chess

In chess, space equals control—and control equals winning chances. In Exploiting a Space Advantage, IM Cyrus Lakdawala teaches you how to recognize, maintain, and convert space advantages into concrete results. This practical guide helps club players elevate their understanding of positional play, shifting the focus from quick tactics to long-term domination.

You’ll learn to create positions where your opponent slowly runs out of options—restricted pieces, weak squares, and passive defense—while you dictate the flow of the game.

🧠 What You’ll Learn:

• How to evaluate when a space advantage is worth keeping

• Methods to restrict your opponent’s piece mobility

• Transitioning from space to initiative and attack

• Model games illustrating strategic dominance

• Practical tips for club-level application

🎯 Recommended for:

• Intermediate Club Players (approx. 1400–2000 Elo) who want to deepen their positional understanding.

• Advanced-Amateur Players (up to ~2200 Elo) who wish to add strategic weapons—especially around space, control and long‑term pressure.

• Coaches & Serious Students: Those who aim to use the concept of space advantage for instructing or refining strategy.
