Lesson 14

I imagine Bowmann is using several sources, and some of his lessons resemble those that are available in nearly every chess book concerned with fundamentals.[/b]
Nothing wrong with that. I prefer real world chess problems to those that are manufactured. I've mentioned it before but I once knew a guy who was utterly effortless at chess problems. He merely glanced at the position and saw the solution. But he could not play chess and admitted it. He just did problems.

Thread 33449 is a thread that begins with a problem from a real game. A fairly strong player missed the key line here.
