That is exactly the reason why it would be productive for you. It will improve your tactical vision tremendously. If it is too hard, you do not need to play a whole game, you can read "miniatures". You can try to solve simple puzzles, after you memorize the position. You can try to reproduce games with an empty board in front of you, if it is difficult, use the pawns and not the pieces etc. Regards, Miguel >You can claim that I did not try enough but I know that >I can get a clear improvement without doing it. > >For example doing 9 can help me >9 is one of the things that I believe that private lessons from the right GM can >help me to achieve and he can help me to learn the right openings when >calculation of long lines is relatively less important. > >Uri
