Has anyone here experimented with a system to write out or graph your decision tree as a way of choosing a move? How has it worked? What kind of information do you include?
Originally posted by ReverbPersonally I wouldn't get in this habit. If you start to depend on it you won't be able to play without a written tree which would be illegal over the board. As far as correspondence games here go why don't you just use the notepad?

Originally posted by ReverbYes. I used the backs of business cards when I was first learning my openings. I simply put a number for the card, my move and all the common responses. Each response referred to another card.

Originally posted by JDChessSo far, I have used chessbase for my games, and I think it has improved my OTB play since August 2009 when I started playing here. With multiple games going, chessbase makes it far easier to remember what I was thinking and what I had planned when I come back to the game.
