Repetition is a good way to train. This is difficult to do with book learning. I always use it as I see it as the only way to truely learn. If you are learning, to handicap the computer is just unfair, and really not using it to it's full learning potential. When I am first learning an opening I use short blitz games to see how long I can keep the computer in book. The longer I can, the more I am obviously learning. Once I can continually get the computer to stay in book up until move 13 or so then I turn to longer games so that I can see what plans I can come up with. I also write the pgn's out beside me so I can go over the game on a real board. I see things better that way, then apply what I see with the programs. Once I find a system that fields results I tend to stick with it. When I was the TD for CCT7 I tried many different ways of getting the rounds updated and pairings done quickly. Once I found a good system I stuck with it, and the event went very smooth. In fact only one round started late and that was due to a game still playing. I am very methodical with almost everything I do, so it is no surprise I take so many steps in learning the way I am. While yesterday's game was a fluke in some ways with how far I got, there have been _many_ games leading up to it that I lost horribly :) Peter
