I would like to ask the community about chess wisdom; I haves discovered in my short time playing chess that there are few who have it, do you feel that it can be obtained by all or is a player born with it?
im not sure, but a good question though
I feel that we all are born with some level of chess wisdom, however it increases only with experience.
I'm going to use the little logic I've obtained ..... A majority of one's thinking capability, including in chess, is determined by the environment in which one is raised, and scarcely by genetics.
I'm going to go out on a limb here and suggest that chess genius is more genetic than environmental. Though, if one great chess player mates another great chess player, they may raise an even greater chess player between them.
Chess wisdom, however, is another matter. Here is all the chess wisdom you could ever need ... http://www.chessville.com/instruction/instr_gen_collection_wisdom_intro.htm
