i have heard of a lot of higher rated players studying grandmaster games as korch has said. i like to buy the books of the openings i'm interested in and endulge in them. after i'm done i use a database and test my knowlidge and now i'm going to start looking at grandmaster games after i read each of the books i got. i'm sure i'll understand those games better after reading.

It's been awhile since we've had one of these threads so I thought I would kick it off...

First off, I do 10 tactics from CT-Art daily.

Wednesday I go to club and play at least one SD/30 game or longer which I analyze with my opponent immediately after. I spend the rest of the time shooting the breeze and playing blitz.

Monday and Friday, I analyze one annotated master game while trying to predict the winners moves.
Ct-Art is proving very interesting indeed.
Did 50 today 😀

my blitz is usually around 1100-1200 on ICC. the only way to get better would be to play a lot, which doesn't really inspire much when you're as bad as me...
