Think like a GM ( Alexander Kotov)
School of Chess Excellence 1,2,3 (Mark Dvoretsky)

You're replying to my post?!


Apparently yes ))

Someone teaching me about Soviet chess and giving general book
examples...


Ehehehhe )) BTW have you read them ?

Kotov - yes, briefly.
Dvoretsky - no. I am not sure when it was printed first in Russia.
I still think that classical game collections are the best things
to learn from.

There are however many examples that your thesis doesn`t work.
Many outstanding players wouldn`t have been playing already if they had
abandoned chess at the early age ))

I wonder if there was any great player who was stalled at Class C
level for 3-4 years between ages 7 to 12... I don't know any.


Let`s explain some definitions. Who do you call 'Class C level' players ?

III category. 1800 ELO. As far as you can reach without talent, by
enthusiasm only.

Regards,
Jerzy
