Conditioned reflex is a term that was introduced by grandmaster Alexander Kotov in his famous book 'Think like a Grandmaster' to describe chess players' tendency to make automatic decisions based on certain well-known patterns or situations in a chess game. These kinds of decisions are usually made automatically because chess players know that they work in 95% of similar positions. However, what about the remaining 5%? Such positions will be discussed in this chapter through 5 instructive examples. We will see that even the most straightforward and natural-looking moves that we usually make on 'autopilot' can have strong counter-intuitive alternatives, or even be wrong.
