For club-level chess players and adult improvers, an argument can be made that amateur games are significantly more instructive than Grandmaster games. Amateur games feature themes, ideas, mistakes, and erroneous thought processes that are highly instructive, while the ideas in Grandmaster games are often esoteric and difficult to process. Simply put, amateur games are ripe with instructional value. This week's episode is a review of The World's Most Instructive Amateur Game Book (Amazon) by NM Dan Heisman. It is a collection of 30 deeply annotated amateur games. The written prose and explanations are outstanding. We cover the following and much more: Poor time management Erroneous thought processes The dangers of prioritizing strategy over safety Castling errors Why discovery and removal-of-the-guard tactics are often missed The "hand waving" error Poor defensive choices

Welcome to The Testing Room where three of the gaming industry's best consultants (to never consult on a game) get together to talk about the games this week and then cover mostly gaming related topics and most episodes take part in what we call a Video Game Book Club. This week we talk about our games we've played and finish our VGBC for Mafia Definitive Edition. Next week we will start our VGBC for Hitman (2016) playing until we finish Paris.
