  1. I was going through my playlist of chess games and at first I was like "Who is this guy? Never seen him before" Usually I like explanations by Yasser or Ronen or Ben Finegold (I know many people don't like him but I do) but after I watched this video, I think this was very well explained!

  3. This is a beginners class? These kids seem to know whats up. Way better than I do.

    EDIT: I guess I was initially a bit uncertain because the video gets straight into strategy without covering the absolute basic stuff like I was looking for, but I realized that I already know the rules, and I was able to follow the reasoning behind the moves. I was less able to predict the moves than the class, but after it was pointed out I was able to understand why they were done. So I think I gained something from this.

    I think I'll move to the adult lectures now, but I'm not too proud to come back, because this was good :B

  4. Nice! Even for adults because it's a "flawless" explanation with demonstration and conclusion perfectly delivered so even good player may learn something and even best player if not learning, will at least just enjoy the beauty of the line 😉
