Hi Alois I have some difficulties in reading my opponent's game and my game.

It's hard for me to find out what's wrong and to read my opponent's weakness as he have already taken advantage of my weakness to win the game. Are there anything you would suggest like what should I observe more? Thanks.

Hi Elgin,

Take a look through the Vault.  This will give you a basic outline of things to look for in your opponents game.  Go through the template for each of your opponents.

As you do this more often, you will start to be able to do it quicker and even during matches or at tournaments when you are watching other players.
