I think it is a great way to study as it makes it easier to think on your opponents side. I do reccomend you try thinking from your side first though.
Flipping Board View

Thanks, I'll keep using it. I wasn't sure if it could lead to bad habits but like you say it's a good way to see what the cunning bots are scheming.
Agree .. it can be very helpful to see your game from the opponent's perspective .. often I find before trying to sneak something through the defense, or playing a risky move, I see how obvious the reply is for my opponent to see. Definitely would recommend that one use it -- especially in daily games -- but any game where you have the time.
Is it a good idea to use the 'flip board' button during a game? I've been using it to study the board from my opponents perspective and am not sure if it's a good way to see something I might have missed or if I should avoid it altogether and get used to just one view.
