Ep. 45: The Truth About Chess Engines for Club Players

Analyzing your tournament games with a computer program such as Fritz or Stockfish is perhaps the most important component of any improvement plan. However, using a chess engine can sometimes be confusing at the amateur level. In this episode, we review some tips on how club players can use an engine effectively to improve. Some of our talking points include:

• Why +/=  or  =/+  is really the same as  =
• Identifying inflection points in your game
• A technique to avoid repeating a mistake in future tournament games
• Avoiding the mindset of "I don't need to review the game - I know where I went wrong"
