But how do you do it the right way? How can you use chess engines/computers effectively without feeling overwhelmed when Stockfish points out blunders and tells you that you missed winning tactics? In this video lesson, GM Igor Smirnov will teach you precisely that. You will learn the correct method to analyze your games using an engine. GM Smirnov will present an example game, analyze it with Stockfish, and then share his own insights, highlighting where his analysis differs from the engine's. You will discover how to interpret the engine's evaluations, understand the positional and strategic reasons behind its recommendations, and use this knowledge to improve your game. Most importantly, you will learn how to combine your own positional understanding with the computer's analysis to find areas for improvement. This approach will help you reduce mistakes and guide you on the right path to faster chess improvement. ▬▬▬▬▬▬ ► Chapters 00:00 How to analyze your chess games with the computer/engine? 00:18 Analyzing chess games with Stockfish/lichess engine 00:57 GM Smirnov argues with engine's review 02:05 The RIGHT way to analyze games with engines 04:05 Positional Understanding + Computer's Ideas 05:27 What to do in the middlegame? 07:26 Computers are there ONLY to ASSIST you! 10:00 GMs DON'T calculate everything 11:39 Same strategic/positional rule applies to a different position 14:31 GM Smirnov feels like he's Hikaru Nakamura 17:23 Summary (2 key takeaways) ► Follow RCA on social media Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/RemoteChessAcademy Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/gm.igorsmirnov/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@gmigorsmirnov 📗 Free chess courses - https://chess-teacher.com/rca-freebies/ #IgorNation #ChessStrategy #ChessImprovement #ChessAnalysis #ChessEngine #Stockfish
