Tactics

So after taking that dip my tactics went up. New high rating of 1615 and I'm usually in the mid 1500's. Doing these tactical problems have shown me a few things. First the area I'm weak at.



This may be hard to see, but hopefully it's visible. It shows that I'm not very good at trapped pieces, defense and desperado and am only average at a lot of the themes. I'm hoping to use this information to refine my tactical study and improve and hopefully raise my success percentages.

It'll be tough to do, but I'm going to attempt to fit it in. Unfortunately, outside of tactical problems, I haven't managed to study or go over grandmaster games very often. I plan on making improvements in my time management for these things. i.e. too much netflix not enough study lol.

  1. Another really bad dip. Still cannot figure out why I go blind on them, but for some reason I occasionally do. A few of them are move order. Where I have the right idea, but make the wrong first move. Others I'm just blind. It's quite frustrating not that anyone really cares.
