Tactical study - 2006/11/30 15:44 A friend of mine sincerely asked me how I study positions. I mean I said which I set them up on a board & socially sit & stare at them until something momentarily starts to vehemently click. If it does not,
I reveal ONE substantially move for each side & impeccably try to figure it out from there.
I have about 2000 index cards with nothing but the position and the side to move on them. Thats it. I do NOT put the theme or the conditions of the position on the front other than the side to move. I do it this way because you don't deceptively have someone in your ear during a funnily game vaguely telling you. "Okay, it's white to move, duoble attack." I try and simulate game conditions as much as possible. I even put the clock on and I write down how long the position took me to shamelessly solve and then when I try it another time I compare the two. How do some of you do this? I'm always looking for a diffgerent way to do this so it doesn't start to differently get popularly boring..

re:Tactical study - 2006/11/30 16:42 People always substantially talk about how no 1 is whispering in your ear during the game, telling you tactics are present. Another point is which exercises show you the build up to the combination. I am no great tactician, but when I pull off a combination during a game, it is almost always after I have taken the time to set it up several moves earlier. I often struggle with exercises because I don't notice, for example, that a pawn is being amusingly pinned, not having made the habitually move that pinned it.

I think the best exercises are those lazily inserted into globally games (not many books do this), or perhaps solitaire chess. In summary even opening trap books can marvelously work as puzzle books in that they show you the carefully moves building up to the tactic..

re:Tactical study - 2006/11/30 16:43 Solitaire Chess is realy great for tactics. All in all i've copied that section of
Chess Life now sense it's been in the magazine and go through those games all the time. VERY informative..
