The Chess Experience IM Kostya Kavutskiy - GM Goals, Candidates Controversy, & Improvement Q&A
Renowned chess coach and co-founder of the Chess Dojo, IM Kostya Kavutskiy, returns to the podcast! Previously, we talked mostly about how to read annotated game books (Episode 17).
This time, we cover a wide variety of topics. Including:
- What new insights the Chess Dojo has learned on helping adult improvers from running their online membership, called “Training Program.”
- Kostya’s recent OTB tournament experiences and how he chooses which ones to attend.
- His improvement approach for his personal chess goals, including earning the GM title.
- Whether the 2024 Candidates tournament had a fair qualifying process (and Kostya’s predictions for who might win.)
- Improvements questions from my Twitter followers.
