Kurzbeschreibung
One of the most influential books on chess ever published - now in its third edition. The Tiger is a vicious beast. He doesn't care about the aesthetic side of chess. He doesn't even care about making the 'best' moves. All he cares about is winning. Do you want to win more games? Then become a Tiger. Chess for Tigers tells you how to make the most of your playing strength, how to play upon your opponent's weaknesses, how to steer the game into a position which suits you and not your opponent, how to get results against strong opposition and how to avoid silly mistakes. This is a cult classic that is as relevant now to a new generation of chess players as the first edition was. Regularly voted in the top 10 of best chess books of all time, this book should be read by all chess players, especially beginners who want to win at all costs.

Use Psychology Agressively to be a winner
2. Mai 2006
Format:Taschenbuch
This is really a book on Chess Psychology but not necessarily taking a scientific approach. One thing for sure, this book is fun to read. However, I would take some of the advice with a "grain of salt". For example, "Play the person not the board" is the exact opposite suggestion giving in my other book (more on training, but has a great chapter on practical chess psychology for the tournament player), "Winning Chess Tournaments for Juniors" that suggests you mostly focus on finding the best moves, but the a secondary degree you must keep in mind who your opponent is and give yourself some practical chances. But as mentioned "Chess for Tigers" is enjoyable and fun - but be careful not to take everyting suggested as "gospel".

Fun and Serious at the same time!!!
14. Mai 2006
Format:Taschenbuch
This was a really fun book to read. Though it is so full of fun ideas to use I ask myself, would they really work? Well, golly, gee whiz, wiliker whezz and flying flezz! I do think that the pscological tactics will certainly work to large degree - but I wouldn't go overboard and really do exactly what this book says in every case. I do have the Winning Chess Tournaments for Juniors book too, that also covers pschological tactics on a purley tournament use idea. Gosh, I would simply recommend getting Chess for Tigers for the fun of it, but also for the ideas it has.

Read It Twice or More - It Really Gets Better
16. April 2006
Format:Taschenbuch|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
This book is much more about your approach to chess than it is about concrete chess tips, although it does contain a number of interesting and well-chosen illustrative positions. Here's a sample of the sort of thing you'll find in the book:
* Play the person, not the board.
* Are you trying to make the best move or trying to win?
You see the point. The book is about winning approaches, and pretty much anything ethical is in scope (fortunately the book doesn't get into seamier strategies).
That said, we read short and entertaining chapters about things that come up all the time: playing weaker players; playing stronger players; winning a won game; playing drawish situations; avoiding blunders; avoiding time trouble; "swindles" in desperate positions; and much more. You may or may not agree with all of the author's advice, but it is largely cogent and practical. You will find yourself relating to the situations described and you may just pick up some new, winning approaches.
The first time through I didn't care for the book so much, perhaps because it is so different in its content. The second time through was the time when the practicality of Webb's advice started to become clear. So give the book a chance, and you will not be disappointed.
Four stars instead of five simply because it's a very brief book and a bit expensive for what it is.
