You need to read at least a little and care a little. When I was a kid, 11 years old, GM Panno was giving group classes to the people of the club. I used to play at that time against a young boy (~17 yrs old) blitz. One day the class was about to start and my mother that was around saw that this boy headed to another room. She asked him "Don't you go to the class?" and he answered "No, I know already what he teaches, isolated pawns blah blah blah" Well, the point is that he had a wrong attitude and he _thought_ he knew. Of course, I never saw him go farther than class B even years after that. Tactics are important, but most important is the right attitude to identify your weaknesses to improve from them. Neglecting whole aspects of the game won't take you far. Regards, Miguel >stay class A forever is not truth and if you get also an improvement in tactics >you will continue to get better. > >Uri
