I have created a PDF document that is based on Karpov and Mazukevich’s thought process guidelines, and includes Herman Grooten’s modifications. You can download it here. The idea is to use it when going over annotated games, or when performing Stokyo exercises. Hopefully, by using it during your training sessions, the questions will sink into our subconscious, and we will subliminally use ask these same questions during actual play.
Feel free to leave comments if you have any suggestions to improve the checklist.
Good checklist. I found a couple items I had not thought of.
Many thanks for this. Really good of you to take the time to share.
