The best online and on-board combinations of 2021

The tradition of Csaba Balogh's problem books continues with number 11 in the best-selling series. Due to the high number of games played on the Internet recently, it has not been an easy task to select the most beautiful and educational, and then put them in an order that allows for the maximum fun that can be provided by solving the key positions, but somehow Csaba has done it again, and with great style.

Solving chess problems not only brings feelings of joy, but is essential for any player who wants to improve their level or increase their Elo and show better results. As for me, I have solved all the problems in Csaba's books from the beginning and I hope that tradition will continue for many more years. I wish you much success in solving the most interesting and beautiful combinations of 2021! (GM Arkady Naiditsch)
