Self Studies: Stoyko Exercise
FM Steve Stoyko has suggested the following exercise:
- Pick a non-static Middlegame position
- Try to evaluate the main variation of each possible move
- Write down the evaluation and try to estimate the "value" of each variation. You can use any matric you like ("centipawns" or whatever you like)
The task should take a fair amount of time and paper.
Example:
