want to improve your middle game, improve your visualisation, check out the
twenty minute exercise on youtube, inspired by Dan Heisman of the ICC and
presented by Mujnu (Mujnu was actually the ill fated adorer of the Persian Princess
Laila, but thats another story). Essentially you pick a master game from database,
pay no attention to the opening but go straight to middle game until there are no
forcing moves and try to evaluate the position and find a plan, using your full
twenty minutes to do so. After you have exhausted the possibilities, you look at how
the masters did it. Got to be one of the greatest chess exercises evah, if we spent
the same time on our correspondence moves, we would avoid senseless blunders
and planless moves. Try it out and discipline yourself to use the full twenty minutes,
can only be good!
