I have been trying to use CCTO in games but am getting absolutely nowhere with it.  I try to look at obvious captures which I wouldn't play because I would lose a piece or it's just a trade.  I look at checks and try and threaten my opponent.  Meanwhile my opponents make moves and just crush me.  What am I doing wrong with this?  It works and I got up to 600 then I just get obliterated again.  Anyone look over some of my games and point out what I am doing wrong?
