Queen against two rooks or three minor pieces, as
well as a rook plus pawn vs two minor pieces - these are typical
constellations where the material is unbalanced. In our first steps in
chess we are taught about the nominal value of the pieces. The queen is
equal to nine pawns; a rook to five, a minor piece is worth three pawns.
This is a common sense solution aimed at teaching the beginner a system
of values so that he or she does not trade a more valuable piece for a
less good one. Later however, situations occur in games in which one
side can trade two minor pieces (six pawns) for a rook and a pawn (also
six pawns). Theoretically speaking, this should result in an equal
position, but in reality one of the two sides will profit from the
exchange. There are many cases of material imbalance in chess. In his
new DVD GM Dejan Bojkov of Bulgaria makes an attempt to systematise the
most important ones and gives valuable advice on how to handle the
resulting positions. He also explains the hidden factors behind the
imbalances, explanations which will guide you through the art of
exchanging pieces.
