Just found an article that does a nice job of synthesis-analyzing all the different overarching reasons for blunders. Check it out:

Hmm. Very heavy slogging.

Didn't see much of value in predicting or avoiding blunders.

Did you?

Guess I should pull out my copy of "Think like a Grandmaster."

Ian, thanks very much for bringing up the article. A very interesting subject, as the two of ushappy.png are searching in the uncertain waters of chess improvement.

I'm now writing a piece on the same topic thanks to the previous reference to the music-chess connection you kindly provided. So need some free time to check this new article out.

Thanks a lot!

I did, at least philosophically. (For instance, a lot of the logic used in this article was the same logic Aiden Rayner has used as a foundation for HIS website & coaching programs that help people make less blunders.)
