THE LESSON OF THE DAY
Identify your opponent’s threat.
It should become a reflex for you to ask yourself “what does my opponent want to do with his last move?” It doesn’t have to be a deadly threat that you are looking for all the time; it could be an idea, a plan he’d like to achieve.
Why is it helpful to do this? Besides lowering the risk of hanging a piece or blundering material, you can discover hidden prophylactic moves that put your opponent’s ideas on hold. Remember – it’s important to find a good plan, but it is equally important to keep your opponent from improving his own position.
