hi..can u suggest on the ideas behind moves…that certainly increases my interest in watching games. Amatuers don’t understand GM games…but if someone can tell the reason behind moves…it might be worth watching the commentary. thanks
I agree with the above.
Are you doing commentary for ICC any time?
I don’t agree.
Surely you can get trained by watching the scene for a long time. And then you understand a anticipate the next move with increasing success. As an amateur.
okay
By the way: I hope that Aronian gets the title as he did last year.
Of course you need explanations if you’re not good. You didn’t learn languages at school by looking at teachers reading, or maths by professors starting off at some formula.
ok
