How to Avoid Mistakes and Boost Your Winning Rate by Vishnu Prasanna
Doesn’t every chess game get decided by mistakes? Absolutely. But most players never truly comprehend that they are making the same kind of mistakes over and over again. The first task is to identify these mistakes and label them. Then the next time you sit at the chessboard, you are aware and able to avoid them.
- GM Vishnu Prasanna is one of the most respected chess trainers in India. He is the coach of the current Indian no.1 player D. Gukesh – his main coach for his journey from 2200 to 2750 Elo. Vishnu has used his immense experience to touch upon the topic of mistakes in chess. -
