Playing Chess
As A CHESSPLAYER, you lose games from time to time—like all chessplayers.
Naturally you want to improve your play. Is there something special or unique about your problem? I don't think so. Only a few of us can become masters; yet the rest of us can achieve respectable playing strength with a reasonable amount of application.
The first big step—an enormous step—in improving our play is to become aware of the things we do wrong, the bad moves we make. Many of us could never reach that point without personal lessons because we could not previously find in books the kind of material that would enable us to spot our own weaknesses.
That is a pity, for while chess is a lot of fun, win or lose, it's more fun when you win! In my contacts with thousands of chessplayers for over twenty years, I have often watched them grope and drift and become discouraged in their efforts to improve their game.
It was from these observations that the notion of concentrating on the Eight Bad Moves took shape. Again and again I have seen, in the course of teaching and playing and discussing, that most players commit certain typical errors.
I started to think about these errors and how to describe them in such a way that the reader would exclaim, "At last! That's just why my games go wrong! If only I'd realized this
sooner!"
This site has been "on my mind" for several years. What held me back somewhat in writing it, was the influence of the teachers and psychologists who have been insisting that a "negative" approach is all wrong. I finally concluded that my emphasis on the Eight Bad Moves of Chess was not really negative at all.
Before a player can begin to improve, he must clear away the faults that have been spoiling his games and depriving him of well-earned victories.

Underestimating Your Opponent's Threats:
Threats are harder to see than captures. Some moves threaten checkmate, some threaten captures, some involve a general improvement in position.
Some threats are crude, brutal, obvious.
Others are unbelievably subtle in their intentions, refined in their execution. Some threats are sound and directed toward winning the game. Others are based on a foolish idea and will prove disastrous for the player who has devised them.
Some threats are irresistible, others can be topped by a stronger threat.
In a game between good players, threats and counterthreats are essentially a matter of interplay of ideas and intentions. If each player does not always see through his opponent's threats, he is at least prepared for them.
Thus, as in the case of captures, it is important to realize that threats are always possible, that they must be looked for.
That is why threats are most dangerous when they are devised by an opponent who seems to have a lost game.
When victory seems within your grasp is just the time when you are most likely to underestimate the other player's resources. "Simple" positions, too, are the downfall of many a player who feels that the game no longer requires careful scrutiny.
