Hello,


http://www.jeremysilman.com/chess_th...p/archive.html


I have a quick question regarding these articles. How can a thought process be applied for quick games (<30min) and blitz games? For example my thinking method is as follows:

1. What Purpose
2. What CHecks, Captures and threats
3. Find 2 - 5 Candidate moves
4. Analyze and establish best move
5. Move

When I get through this it takes me at best 2 whole minutes. Now should
I keep practicing this thinking method till it becomes very quick or
should I modify it for quick and blitz games.

Thanking you in advance,
Lochness 88.
