Master Class Vol. 18: Max Euwe

Max Euwe became the fifth World Chess Champion after beating Alexander Alekhine in the 1935 World Championship match. A maths teacher by profession, Euwe remained an amateur throughout his life, but was still the best chess player in the Netherlands, and one of the world's best players. Euwe holds the record for the most Dutch national championships, with twelve. After winning the World Championship, Euwe was also the world's best player for a while. He lost the title again in 1937 in the rematch against Alexander Alekhine.

Euwe had a scientific approach to chess and was intensively involved with opening and endgame theory. In addition to his career as a player, he was very successful as the author of numerous textbooks. He later enjoyed a good reputation as president of the World Chess Federation. This video course traces the career of the fifth World Chess Champion, which began in the 1920s and lasted a little past his final participation in the Chess Olympiad in 1962 in Varna. In addition to four decades of chess history with all the great players of the time, this video course also teaches many instructive games of the world's best players, not least the famous ‘Pearl of Zandvoort’. In this video course, experts including Dorian Rogozenco, Mihail Marin, Karsten Müller and Oliver Reeh, examine the games of Max Euwe. Let them show you which openings Euwe chose to play, where his strength in middlegames were, or how he outplayed his opponents in the endgame. Finally, you’ll get a glimpse of his tactical abilities in the Tactics section
