Description
We've all been there: the clock is ticking, panic is rising, and we make moves we'd never consider with more time. From a winning position to a loss — all that effort wasted because of poor time management. And the worst part? We keep repeating the same mistake.
In this Fritz Trainer course, WGM Regina Pokorna provides a structured, two-part guide to mastering time management at the board. Part 1 focuses on avoiding time trouble through techniques including strict opening preparation, using chess intuition wisely, identifying critical moments, choosing between candidate moves efficiently, prophylactic thinking, and overcoming perfectionism. Part 2 addresses what to do when you're already in time trouble — how strong players (and even grandmasters) handle the pressure, when to look for saving chances in worse positions, how to control emotions, and when to simplify into a pawn endgame.
