Hi,
I am looking to seriously get better at chess? Why? Well, why not?
The question is, how should I divide my time? I know I know, don't spend time studying openings at your level.
Sat down with a tactics book and for the first time actually enjoyed solving the problems. Should I spend more time doing this?
What about annotated games? Books with game collections? Memorizing them? Endgames? The only problem with game collections is that they select only the best games. Regardless of whether the other player played accurately. So what's the point in looking at that. What about the mundane positional elements.
