Hi - I'm new to the forums and chess in general.
I am going to download some of my games and build some information about what openings get me into good/bad games, understand serious mistakes that cause me to lose games, or get into trouble. Try to analyze them, find weaknesses and strengths and patterns of my play so I can make improvements. One thing I'd love to do is actually annotate some of my games like you see in the books written by professional players. So, my question: As a road to improvement do you annotate your games, and if so, how do you do it? Is there a method you follow? How do you verify that your analysis is sound?
Sincerely, GraemeK
