I am trying to start analyzing my games, but I am a bit unsure how to even go about doing that. I originally would have the computer analyze my game, and comment on what I think are the main points of the match I should keep in mind.

I have the following tips so far:

  • serious games, create a study to analyze
  • try to comment what went through your mind as you played the game
  • view what others did in a similar position using a database
  • have final comments/lessons learned
  • classify mistakes. leads to pattern recognition
  • computers don’t fully understand openings *use computer analysis after my own analysis and see where my analysis went wrong

    Also, try to analyze the problem from a broad perspective. If you always get stuck in a defensive position and then lose, try looking up theory for working from a defensive position. Or you can work improving your openings, so you take the initiative early on. There’s loads of theory available online, so you don’t have to do all the thinking yourself
