    But....the only way it will help you become a more positional player is.....

    After the game you need to find your mistakes....

    Now in a positional game that is hard.

    that's the problem...
    I can run a game through a computer, and have it tell me which combinations I missed.
    I can't run a game through a computer and have it tell me which moves I made that severely weakened my position, and which move was correct. This is because computers themselves are not as strong in the positional comprehension field.

    I find that it is much easier to find weak positional moves when I am looking over a finished game because you can see how the game progresses after every move I think that there are some books out there that have positional "problems" kind of like tactical problems except that they don't have a concrete solution.
