Dojo Talks: Jon Ludvig Hammer discusses working on opening theory

I heard an interesting podcast last week :-)

ChessDojo in itself is an interesting group project where many adults, perhaps primarily from the US, motivates each other to work on chess. The podcasts are interesting since they discuss different aspects of training and developing. The three presenters, Jesse Kraai, Kostya Kavutskiy and David Pruess rarely agrees, so we get different perspectives and arguments, which I think is very healthy.

I normally listen to all the Dojo-Talks episodes, but I was naturally extra interested when they invited a Norwegian.

In this episode they discuss with Hammer how much work new chess players need to learn. They also cover how to learn openings and how to pick openings. In my opinion, this discussion is relevant for a much larger group than mere beginners. They also discuss the dangers of learning a series of moves without understand the reason behind the moves, and the dilemma in how to divide the limited time one has for chess work.

Hammer is naturally very happy with his new opening course on Chessable, but he is also very open for the arguments that players on lower levels most often loses their games to lack of understanding in the middle game and endgames, and particularly to tactics and therefore should spend more time in those areas. At the same time, you can get the confidence needed to play an over-the-board tournament if you feel you know and opening.
