Win More Games by Mastering Material Imbalances

Turn confusion into confidence when pieces don’t “add up”

Do you struggle with positions where the material is unequal—like bishop vs knight, queen vs rooks, or the bishop pair?
Most players do. That’s because material imbalances are among the most complex and misunderstood topics in chess.

In this practical, game-changing guide, GM Mauricio Flores Rios gives you the tools to handle these situations with clarity and confidence.
You’ll learn how to:

✅ Judge imbalances accurately instead of relying on "piece value rules"
✅ Spot winning plans that fit the position—not just the material
✅ Think like a master in messy, unbalanced positions
✅ Strengthen your decision-making in real tournament games

With model games, easy-to-follow explanations, and targeted exercises, this book will sharpen your positional instincts and help you convert more advantages into wins.

Ideal for tournament players, club competitors, and ambitious improvers who want to move beyond material counting.
