105 Evaluation: A Vital But Overlooked Skill For Club Players w/ GM Eugene Perelshteyn
Oct 22, 2024
Today’s guest is a huge help to countless adult improvers.
GM Eugene Perelshteyn is a highly regarded coach, author, and course creator.
In more recent years, he went beyond helping his private students and extended his chess wisdom to writing a book and publishing courses.
His 2022 book, Evaluate Like A Grandmaster, is a huge help to almost every club player. And we discuss at length the benefits of improving your often-overlooked evaluation skills in chess.
But this is also a wide-reaching interview…
In our chat, we discuss the recent controversy with GM Christopher Woo at the US Chess Championship and why mental health is a critical topic for competitive players (even amateurs!)
Plus, we cover:
- How studying gambits can make you a better chess player.
- Who is likely to win the World Chess Championship between Ding & Gukesh.
- Hikaru’s trick to playing better competitively that applies to all players.
