Learning from Yasser Seirawan Part 1
Seirawan, 1994. Picture taken from http://nezhmet.wordpress.com/tag/yasser-seirawan/
Currently in my studies I am looking at the games of Yasser Seirawan. I have decided to publish my analysis for a couple of reasons:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. This forces me to analyze every week and work hard at producing the best work
2. I believe that many viewers on Chess.com can also benefit from learning from Seirawan's games.
