Everything you always wanted to know about chess and did not dare to ask.

Questions that chess books do not answer.

 

Who said that in order to be a chess champion you have to be one who sees a lot of moves in advance, and fast?

 

Let's take another field: I'm currently studying piano.

Well, I have always admired how virtuosos succeed at the same time: reading characters in different and weird scales, with intricate chords and alterations, at phenomenal speeds and without errors.

 

A great pianist explained to me that he was not born with this. Rather, if I try to play at the beginning as fast as he plays, I will never succeed.

 

He does it because he has learned to do it very slowly at the beginning and with method.

 

Maybe this is the case with the study of chess? I would like you to give lessons and exercises for example on: How to see several moves in advance without getting confused, without forgetting anything and very fast. And do not just explain and analyze things like: open columns, tools, weak and strong pieces and analyze combinations.
