Ep. 120: Fix Your Chess Mistakes! (Review of "The World's Most Instructive Amateur Game Book")

  • Resumen

  • For club-level chess players and adult improvers, an argument can be made that amateur games are significantly more instructive than Grandmaster games. Amateur games feature themes, ideas, mistakes, and erroneous thought processes that are highly instructive, while the ideas in Grandmaster games are often esoteric and difficult to process. Simply put, amateur games are ripe with instructional value. This week's episode is a review of The World's Most Instructive Amateur Game Book (Amazon) by NM Dan Heisman. It is a collection of 30 deeply annotated amateur games. The written prose and explanations are outstanding. We cover the following and much more:

    • Poor time management
    • Erroneous thought processes
    • The dangers of prioritizing strategy over safety
    • Castling errors
    • Why discovery and removal-of-the-guard tactics are often missed
    • The "hand waving" error
    • Poor defensive choices
