I recently entered a tournament, and to be honest...
I being thrashed!
Don't get me wrong, that's not a bad thing. It shows me how much I still have to learn. (Funny thing though, With chess, you never stop learning!)
Well, getting back to the point.
Could any1 point me towards some good tutorials....?
Most tutorials I've found are on the Basics of the Game.
