There is much more important to learn how to reposition its characters should be, what strategies there are in the middle game and how to win finals.

Theory forget it! Logic and not understanding. I was studium sbedingt 3 years inactive. During this time I have almost all the revelations which I have learned to forget! However, I played chess again successful.
