After the game you need to find your mistakes....
Now in a positional game that is hard.
that's the problem...
I can run a game through a computer, and have it tell me which combinations I missed.
I can't run a game through a computer and have it tell me which moves I made that severely weakened my position, and which move was correct. This is because computers themselves are not as strong in the positional comprehension field.
