In this video course, I’d like to assist you with handling time management during your game. How to avoid it, and how to react when you’ve no other choice.
Time trouble is one of the most common chess player bad habits. One can’t really avoid spending time on complicated positions, but they are not the only issue. There are other factors, like insufficient opening preparation, perfectionism, missing self-confidence, etc.
In this video course, I’d like to assist you with handling time management during your game. How to avoid it, and how to react when you’ve no other choice. I’ve organized this course into 2 parts.
In the first part I focus on the methods and techniques that will help you to avoid time trouble, such as: strict opening repertoire, using chess intuition wisely, identifying critical moments, deciding between several possible moves, prophylactic thinking and how to avoid perfectionism in chess.
In the second part, the focus lies on the moments in time trouble. How players of different strength and experience solve their problems at the board, but also why many of them (incl. strong grandmasters) failed.
I cover topics like: looking for chances in a worse position and finding the best ways out of it; how and why to keep emotions under the control; complicated and complex positions; why to be cautious with the changes in a pawn structure in time trouble; and when and if to convert positions into (pawn) endgames.
