exposure and patience.
i find the more i play, the less i miss when it comes to opponents' gambits. the more time i take, the more options i look at and (sic), the more hanging pieces and forks i see. i'm guessing you're still very good - just need to play more and look for some of the more complicated tactical maneuvers.
