Short is a term used in chess to describe a game or match that ends in relatively few moves, often due to a tactical oversight, blunder, or aggressive play by one of the players.
Short games can result from quick tactical combinations, opening traps, or unexpected tactical shots that catch the opponent off guard.
While short games can sometimes be the result of careless play, they can also demonstrate tactical brilliance or creative strategies by the winning player.
Analyzing short games can provide valuable insights into tactical motifs, opening traps, and common mistakes to avoid.
Short games are a reminder of the importance of vigilance, tactical awareness, and accurate calculation in every phase of the game of chess.
