I think studying it to improve at chess is very unlikely to give decent results (as compared to either study more chess, or have a break from studying chess). Chess is much more about tactics (by what I mean it's very hard to compensate for poor tactics with great strategy, what's a lot easier at go) ; sente loses a lot of its meaning, for global thinking about the board is so reduced (64 vs 361, somehow) ; and there is very little sense of shape. Excellent suggestion, but I'm afraid I have to downvote it ;) | |
