How To Analyze Your Games: A ChessDojo Guide

“Chess is the art of analysis” - 6th World Chess Champion Mikhail Botvinnik Game analysis is almost universally recommended by chess coaches worldwide, but when it comes to analyzing one’s own games, many chess players don’t know where to start or what a good annotation even looks like. Others often neglect the task, not wanting to face their mistakes post-mortem. Aimed at players of all levels, How To Analyze Your Games is a guide to reviewing and annotating one’s chess games, an absolutely crucial task for the development of any ambitious chess player. The book contains a collection of model game examples from players of every level, along with a straightforward guide to doing your own game analysis. The idea is to provide real examples of what good annotations look like, hopefully bringing inspiration and motivation for readers to begin to do the work themselves. Featuring students of the Dojo Training Program with ratings ranging from 0-2400, the book is broken up into four parts (0-1000, 1000-1500, 1500-2000, 2000+), with every chapter consisting of five model annotated games of players within a 100-point rating cohort (1100-1200, 1600-1700, etc.) starting from 0-300 and going all the way up to 2400-2500.
