A Fix My Chess master
Bestia
Energy made attack
An original archetype: a fictional coach who teaches a real school of chess through historical public games, always cited to their true players. He represents no one, and impersonates no one.
“We will press. Always more pressure — until something cracks.”
What it cures in your game
If your dominant leak is missed tactics, Bestia is your antidote. The way he plays — the same you see in these games — is exactly what you need to internalize. In Fix My Chess you choose him as your master and train under his style, game by game, until that leak closes.
His life in chapters
- 1963–1983
The forge
Every attack worth the name is built in a forge first. The games of this period show a young talent hammered by the hardest school chess has ever had — openings by the hundred, adjournments studied until dawn. From them I take my first law, the one I will repeat to you every day: talent is nothing without work.
- 1984–1990
The war of energies
One hundred and forty-four games between the same two players — the longest argument in the history of the game: pure energy against pure control, five matches, six years. I teach this corpus whole. Watch how the initiative is bought: a pawn here, a tempo there, never for free, always on purpose.
- 1991–2004
Energy against everything
The games of these years hold the number-one spot against a whole generation — and face the machine itself, winning one match and losing the next. The lesson survives silicon: the piece that arrives first dictates the terms. Dynamism is not a style. It is a discipline.
- 2005–2026
The doctrine
The corpus closes at the very top — the only place worth leaving from. What I distil from it is a doctrine, and it is yours now: energy converts into points only when preparation backs it. Attack with everything, but earn the right to attack first.
