L2C 054: How to Annotate and Analyze Your Game (101) with Claude Fried

It is often said that in chess one of the best ways to improve is to study your games, often annotating them is the method suggested. But what exactly does that mean exactly. Claude Fried returns to help Bill walk through a recent game and help him to annotate and analyze the game. While we made every effort to make this useful as an audio only podcast, this episode may be better when viewed on our YouTube channel as the discussion is fairly visual. Going into this episode, Bill felt he was almost competent at annotating a game and what he was thinking during and after reviewing the game. However, his analysis skills are still lacking. Even with that expectation, Claude was able to identify several key areas where Bill can improve his process going forward. Additionally, Claude also suggested several areas for homework and future game analysis and annotations for a potential part 2.
