Viewer Submissions - Videos By Steve Farmer

Korchnoi and Prophylaxis This was my first 'Viewer Request' video. TygerTyger sent a question about Korchnoi and prophylactic play. He may have been instead referring to Petrosian. Still, Viktor was a very versatile player and he was quite capable of such play as can be seen from this video.

Viewer Game For TygerTyger - Jim Blevins submitted some games for review. If you have games or questions you would like answered, please email me and I will let you know how this can be done. There is a small fee for my time, but I promise it will be worth it!

Viewer Game, TygerTyger vs Nemesis - Jim sends us another game to look at and I share my thoughts on how he could have improved his play.

Viewer Game How To Win A Won Game-Free [39:07] In this video we take a look at the game Isthisrealifex vs Spediken played over the internet. Early in the game White wins material, and while he was able to win the game, he overlooked a few opportunities to close the game out quickly. This often happens in our games, we tend to set our game on automatic-pilot and this can be a dangerous thing. I point out to the viewer in this video how he could have concluded matters in a more decisive manner.

A Thought About Thinking - I am a big advocate of improving mental clarity and read many so-called 'self-help' books on this subject. This video relays some of the thoughts I had while reading one of these books recently. This also includes one of my recent games.
