How to defend in a very active Way | Active Defense for Beginner
I don't understand why we shouldn't play the line with h4, h6, Nf3, Nd7. What's the difference between the pawn on e6 and the Knight on d7 lines?. at 4:39
Thanks a lot for your contribution.
great content thanks
This helped a lot. Can't wait to watch the entire series. The Italian is my favorite opening.
Sir what will if after Qh3 Bc8 please tell me 😢
thank you mr Alex you teach really well
really helpful
I have a question . In the early configuration of queens gambit; with black playing e6 on turn two , why Kc3 vs. Kf3 on the front end of turn ?
Really loved the clarity and the detailed introduction, keep the good work going !
The best coach I could ever get thanks sir❤️
Loves that he makes all the variations!!! Best course ever, thanks man! :DD
👍and subscribed. I know it sounds simple but it is surprising effective.
Great video
This is an awesome exploration!
I just love this chess set
thanks a lot
There is no lesson.only login and go back to home
Please early solve it
Decription,web site ,error
So that is why I usually get into trouble as black! I like FL as white as it leads to a very fast game with lots of tactics.
I saw a game played by Alireza as Black where he played ...a5 then ...b5 breaking every positional rule by leaving a backward pawn on an open c-file. Completely different approach to the position. Idea is that he wanted ...Nb6-c4.
For the article sci hub.
7:02 Before take Queen on b4, Rook on d8 should be taken, otherwise black can checkmate on d1.
Meanwhile me nd my homie in our childhood: I put check on his king. He doesn't notice the check and leaves the king in check. I check mate lfg
Thanks
thanks a lot my friend
Id assume playing against the fianchetto when you have hanging pawns, like in some catalan ish position isnt very nice
Amazing video!
Thank you so much❤ you’re the best streamer 😊
I can't believe that you have a full chess course on your website with related exercises free of cost. just started the imporover series completed the exercises and enjoying the course. Thanks a lot.
Ur amazing thank you
Thanks alex for this video. I'm currently 1200 up rating and I want to improve my game. Should I focus on learning theory like opening, mid and end Instead of playing?
Great Sir ....🫡
how am i supposed to win the game at the end of the tactic sets
Even Mikhail Tal lost against this... wow...
Thank you
Im a beginner in the French Defence and my results were so bad in this line. But now I feel more confident! Thank you so much!
exactly great lesson! Thanks for you
You did the traxler counter attack incorrectly. It was whites turn but you moved the black bishop
Easier to visualize if you use a digital chess board to make your explain
In the past few years, I followed the Beginner path and I am now tackling the Improver one. Chessfactor is a fantastic resource for anyone who wants to learn in a more structured but flexible way! At the end of the summary, you say that one should calculate everything carefully. I can never see myself calculating all the possible lines in the second example, and it feels that such calculations would be hard for anyone under say 1800 FIDE (complete guesstimate). Do you have any advice/video for improving calculations at a low level?
Great class, thanks, very clear. Please note that the letter i after g in Italian is not pronounced but is used to make the g soft and be read like g in gesture because without it the g would be hard and read as g in goal. It should be juoko not j-ee-uoko. See the prononciation on google translate for an example. ETA: This is the most clear, organised lesson on the italian I have seen on yt.
Great video! Can you please explain how to play the London system against King's Indian, Grunfeld, Dutch and Benoni setups?
Great intro video, I took many years off of chess and d3 was the mainline when I left. This video did a great job explaining the new lines and the ideas for the new lines. Thanks
I’ve seen this chess set on amazon. Would you recommend it?
I really like idea to show the game on real chess board not on PC . Thanks for this .
11:00
Great video!
i just found the gold mine thank you so much sir
