Strategy

Hello sir,

1 or 2 years back my game was better than the players of my district , those players practice regularly and also attend academy. I turned my game equivalent to them without much practice and no coaching . But now I have noticed because of their regular classes and practice they are playing better than me.  I cannot attend academy because of studies . Now I have lost all my hope of winning against them in a tournament . My game reading skills are better than them because of studies and knowledge about different types of players . Is game reading skills a big advantage over them? And how can I restore my hope?

Thanks in advance

Hi Shivam,

Playing more is a big advantage for them.  However use your mind more and do some homework on their strengths and weaknesses.
