I am trying to start analyzing my games, but I am a bit unsure how to even go about doing that. I originally would have the computer analyze my game, and comment on what I think are the main points of the match I should keep in mind.

I have the following tips so far:

• serious games, create a study to analyze
• try to comment what went through your mind as you played the game
• view what others did in a similar position using a database
• have final comments/lessons learned
• classify mistakes. leads to pattern recognition
• computers don’t fully understand openings *use computer analysis after my own analysis and see where my analysis went wrong
