What do you use as Training material? No Mastergames?
about 1 year ago
For master games I am going to go over Nimzowich’s games via My System and Chess Praxis. I am using Silman’s Endgame Course to study the endgame and I am using the Endgame Challenge puzzle book to solve endgame positions. I also registered with Chess Master School so I have additional material there as well. I’m solving tactics on the chess.com site.
