Benefits of Playing Chess:
- Promotes brain growth
- Increases problem-solving skills
- It exercises both sides of the brain
- Raises your IQ
- Sparks your creativity
- Teaches planning and foresight
- Teaches patience and concentration
- Optimizes memory improvement
- Improves recovery from stroke or disability
- Helps treat ADHD
Chess is an intellectual battle where players are exposed to numerous mental processes such as analysis, attention to detail, synthesis, concentration, planning and foresight. Psychological factors are also present on and off the board; playing Chess stimulates our imagination and creativity. Every single move a player makes is the result of a deep analysis based on the elements presented on the battlefield.
Chess in its essence teaches us psychological, sociological and even moral values. In a Chess game, both players start with the same amount of material and time. The fact that the white pieces move first is considered to be practically irrelevant -especially because a player typically plays one game as white and one game as black. Consequently, the final result of the battle solely depends on each player. It doesn’t matter if you win by taking advantage of your opponent’s mistakes or by simply avoiding mistakes yourself. Truth is that Chess is an extremely individual sport and our defeats can only be blamed on ourselves and no one else. And this, in the end, only benefits us because we learn to be and feel responsible for our actions and never come up with excuses to justify ourselves.
We also learn that when it comes to our victories on the board, our opponent's mistakes play a more significant role than our own skills. Let’s not forget that a Chess game without any mistakes would be a draw. This way, Chess provides us with another valuable life lesson: be humble at all times.

Hi add me "MuzKaii"
@@muzkaii done!
@@NMRobertRamirez thanks ❤️
Candimbo
Can you please add me KInddd
A very big thanks for this free tutorial it can help a lot for those who want to become a good chess player.. More power to your channel
Appreciate all the lessons so far.. especially how you take it slow and explain the rationale for everything in an easy to digest manner. For example, taking a few minutes to explain "what if they take dxc6", it's not a distraction it really helps me understand.
Anyway, I'm now really excited whenever I play black because I can apply the lessons. The stats are telling me I win more with black than with white, which is unusual =)) My rating is improving too. Muchas gracias mi profe!
Excelente! Me alegra que me hayas dicho eso porque así lo hago mas seguido. Keep training and mastering these openings. Soon we will be learning other openings, but it is always good to have something you really like as your main weapon 👍
"You are not gonna get checkmated"
you underestimated my power
That pat in the shoulder hit hard. 😭😭😭 Okay i will not panic
😅💪
Thanks a lot. I'm really enjoying this serie.
That's great to hear. Thank you for your feedback 💪
Thanks for another great lesson! I like b5 with the pawn sacrifice!
Nice video Robert, thanks! I think I would go for the pawn sacrifice variation. It might not always work out for me but would make the game more fun and that's why I like this game. It's fun.
Thank you for the lesson. You're helping me to create my opening repertoire in Chess
That's great, Evaldo! Happy to help 👍
@@NMRobertRamirez Same here. I'm taking your lessons and compiling comprehensive Pirc & KID plans, just to get me out of the openings well and to know the main plans. I now feel more confident as Black than White, actually! I want to try the Pirc/KID setup more consistently as white and see how it works. I have your 1. ..., d6 shirt and love it! Thanks again for all you do.
I find this very helpful
Thanks sir !
Wow! This is a lot. Great but complicated. I want to try the c5 move but I will need to go over this a few dozen times. 👌
This is very useful , thank you great content 🔥
You are welcome! 💪
This instruction helped with my fears against Whites g and h pawn attacks! I will definitely go for the more risky line you described. Thanks so much. I will definitely watch your other videos….also I want to see if you have videos on how to crush the annoying London System….ugh!!
I'm still playing your Czech Pirc approach in OTB rated, but I can't wait to try this out and plan to go with the 13...b5 line.
Very premium content.God bless!!
Glad you liked it, Joey 💪
This is absolutely magnificent
_this is consistent with other lines we learned not needs very memorisation
_this is not the main main line every opponent knows
_Includes traps for easy win
So glad you liked it, Yusuf 💪
I m getting a lots of good results after I studied Kings Indian Defense. Even I got a draw with one IM in blitz's. Thank you very much for your classes
Congrats Shahin! Drawing an IM is a great accomplishment. I hear these guys know what they are doing 😎💪 Nah seriously, keep training consistently. You must be doing something right 👍
Very nice explaination dear
the crazy thing is that I'm using many of these ideas even when I don't normally start off with the King's Indian, or the Pirc, yet they seem to work. :) So thanks.
That means you are learning Chess instead of memorizing opening lines 👍
Ye I feel Qe2 and b5 is good. Thanks for a great KID lesson. 💪🏼👏😀
You are welcome, Mark! Thanks you for letting me know what line you prefer 👍
I felt that shoulder affirmation by heart
When I face Bg5 I normally break with c5 and transpose into a Benoni type of position. I’ve gotten good results but I’d really rather play the KID than a Benoni.
I just tried c6 and Na6-c7-e6 to counter Bg5, then e5, and it worked great. Easy game. Thanks for these videos.
You are more than welcome, Anthony!
this is very good!! I would probably feel more comfortable moving the queen away from the pin before playing b5.
Hi Robert! Regarding the move order at 10:50. "Some people like to play Nh3 first" - well, if you do that, you can get the Knight to f2 one move earlier, which will defend against Black's variations after b4.
Great video
Thank you, Matthew!
I don’t know what I would do without you lol
😜👍
Hi, thanks for the clearing explanation. CAn you add lichess accourt "nyly" to your studio ?
you are already in 👍
Very good again. i think I'm getting a good idea of what to do now. Pirc and KID all versions. i heard the Leningrad Dutch is a good opening I wonder if you would kindly share your knowledge on this Leningrad. I'd love to understand the benefits vs disadvantages of the system. Is it more advanced?
Hello Timothy! Of course. I am planning to provide you guys with everything you need to make it to master level and that includes covering almost all openings like the Dutch defense 👍
Thankyou❤
Nice!🔥🔥🔥
Thank you!
I begon 3 monts ago, i was rated 500 and now i im rated 1300, thank you!
Hey Vic! That's impressive. Congrats on such a huge jump and thank you for sharing your progress with me 👍
I will do qe8 first the push b8, Complex positions are cuz crazy dynamic things can happen on any side of the board
Of course! Anyways, if you get it often online, you can try them both 👍
Your video's are ideal for me. I have been playing the King's Indian, Pirc, (with white too). London for a long time. However I often don't know what to do in middlegame positions. Like the c6 plan. Even little advice like which rook to take with and why is often confusion for me. Slightly prefer b5. Most of my opponents will just take it.
That's music to my ears, Carl! Glad you found value in those small details. Thanks to feedback like yours I remember to mention them. And regarding the c6 plan, I agree with you, many people will take or at least spend a lot of their time deciding. In my case, many people get out of theory way before that point 👍
i dont like the early b5 because all of the things i need to remember and be aware of. i like play more positionaly when i play with the black pieces. thank u for the great content and im asking u once again to go into the modern defence cuz i really want to start use it in my game.
That makes perfect sense. Thank you for letting me know what line you prefer and yes; we will definitely cover the Modern at some point 👍
Up for the B pawn sac
💪😎
Do you have any plans on covering the Smyslov variation any time soon?
Hello Miguel! I will certainly cover it soon 👍
Hi Robert I would choose the ...b5 variation as it is more dynamic ! George
Thanks for saving time grinding through the grandmaster repretoire books on kid.
I am still doing mistakes with the timing of e5 or selection between c5 and e5
How to develop the the light square Bishop should I trade it or keep it like the bishop on g7
And it's like you have psychic powers as you understand when I get anxious when they do pawnstorm ..... How to defend against the alpha zero style of flank pawn attack on h file... If I defend with h4 they just plant a knight on g5 and it's annoying... With the bishop on c4 it gets too dangerous... And their queen eying my knight on f6 so my rerouting of knight to Nh7 to challenge the outpost knight.... How to get out of this
You are more than welcome! You will get better at answering these questions as you get more experience. Regarding the light-squared bishop, in the KID we want to keep it for the most part 👍

I liked the video when you said " you already know how to play it"
😎 nice! Thank you!
I heard that the London opening is good as a beginner but am struggling to make threatening attacks in the middle game. Could you make a video on common attacking tactics in the London system?
Hello! Have you watched lesson # 58?
hi sir please help me on classical bd3 varitions that i lose many of the games on low rated players
hello
i have a question
after moves d4 nf6 c4 g6 nc3 bg7 e4 d6 be2 0-0 bg5 na6 qd2 e5 what if white played nf3?
if they castle to the queen side that suicide😈🔥
Can you go over the Symyslov variation of the KID?
We will certainly cover it in due time 👍
Today Averbakh passed away,Quite a coincidence that I saw this video, named after him.RIP legend.
I know I already said this in another video, but could you please create a full repertoire of the ruy lopez? I have a tournament in like 2-3 months. Other than that great content! Keep it up. You are a very underrated channel but will soon grow! I promise. :)
Amazon has lots of books exclusively on the Ruy.
Yes, we will definitely cover the Ruy Lopez at some point. In the mean time, you can pick up a book in order to start learning it 👍
@@NMRobertRamirezWhat Ruy Lopez book do you recommend?
@@omsuthar2876 I learned openings like the Ruy Lopez from encyclopedias and reviewing games. So, it's hard to recommend a book, but some of my students like this one. If you get it, let me know what you think: amzn.to/3vgpFIi
@@NMRobertRamirez Ok thank you! I will tell you when I get the book and how I think it is.
In the position (at 13:52) you give BPxd5; /what happens on Nxd5; the B is pinning the N against the Q! How do you break the pin?
Hello Fred! The move White does not like if they do Nxd5 is our Ne6 hitting their g5 bishop and eyeing the d4 square for our knight. Hope this makes sense 👍
Just to make sure, the game Ramirez played with white's a3 in the first example is not the Aaverbakh, but the Bagirov. The Bagirov is designed to force g2-g4 through the opponents throat.
The second game with Be2 and Bg5 is the actual Averbakh, designed to scare blacks with an early Qc2-Bg5 setup to demolish black's KID pride.
Note that both offer black's ...Na6 as an important strategic response (others are more tactical). Also note that according the source below, both openings require one or more sacrifices to make their attack work! So they have interesting things in common!
And now the sources for my knowledge: Modernized King's Indian Defense by Dejan Bojkov.
Get that book if you're KID player. It's up-to-date but KID is not for novice players. Just a heads up. I"m about 1750 on lichess (1500 real life) and gave up on it and restarted again many times lol.
Pawn sacrifice for sure!
Thanks for telling me, Peter 👍
Hey, So I play d4 as white and the averbakh is my opening choice against KID. So I wanted to ask you as the line you chose with Na6 basically transposes to one of the more popular lines with Nbd7. Why do you prefer Na6 over Nbd7?
when the knight jumps to C5
Hello! I think it is mainly a matter of consistency. If you ever look at the other lessons I have on the KID, you will see I also recommend this Na6 move in other variations such as the Four Pawns and the Classical. It will make it easier to remember. Hope this makes sense 👍
ok! thank you for the response. I am looking forwards to your future videos! Cheers!
Nice
Thank you 👍
this variation that i see a lot when im playing pirc.
after white play E5, i rather play c6 for preparing Qc7 and Nbd7 before pushing e pawn up. if i dont do that is really bad to me if white play Ng3 and strong dark bishop like that..
I find pawn sacrifice move more fun to play
What if white plays h4 instead of G4 after a5. The engine shows +1.7 for white
Will definitely play b5
There you go! 💪
#suggestion pls make a video on small traps in kings India defence .
Thank you!
@@NMRobertRamirez Hi pls add me skillmatters
@13:40 don't freak out! hahah
If I may ask, as a King's Indian defense player, how do we deal with the trompowsky attack?
Hello! I know this is not the answer you are looking for, but I like to do 1...,g6 to avoid getting into it. If you have been following this course and play the Pirc, then even better because after 1...,g6 they can do 2.e4 and transpose into the Pirc. With that said, nothing wrong with Nf6 and g6 or Nf6 and Ne4. Here is the exact part of the video where I addressed it: ruclips.net/video/bCmsHfrcBBc/видео.html
Thank you so much for the help! I greatly appreciate you taking the time to reply. #TeamPirc
Hi Robert,
I don´t like your theory about well coordinated blacks position in this variation - after 12. ... cxd5? White will not play for any reason the move you show in your video-lesson 13. cxd5? but 13. Nxd5! and black is pinned and cramped without possibility to release himself anyhow. By my opinion this 13th move only disaccords black pieces and they will have to stay in so annoying cramped position and wait for miracle. Do you have any antidote to this clever white´s reply?
Hello! Thanks a lot for bringing it up 👍 Do you have access to the study I created fir this line on Lichess? There, I provided the line Ne6 in reply to white's Nxd5 😎💪
pls.make a opening vs scandinavian icelandic defence
e4 d5
exd5 nf6 line
Hello Anessa! We still have a long way to go in this course and we will certainly cover this line of the Scandinavian 👍
Thanks a lot guru. Plz make series on french
You are more than welcome! I would have to learn French first 😅

@@maulikgajjar5545 😎👍
It would be great if you can do some rapid games, i think there better for intermediate like me to learn from, thanks
Hello! Yes, many people had mentioned this and that's why I used a different format for lessons # 94 and # 95. Let me know what you think if you go over those two 👍
For me..
I want to play with Qe8 first before b5..
I want to play with control games..
Zero counter play for my opponent..
While i have some plenty of options use..
We have same repertoire 🥰
But after Bg5 i play Na6 first before 0-0..
I want to see what white wants to play..
Then i choose if i break with c5 or e5..
But must of the time i play with the spirit of kid rather to shift to binoni/benko...
This materials helps to promote the KID..
😍
I know exactly what you mean 😎💪 Anyways, if you get this position often when you play online, feel free to give both variations a try 👍
I will go by Qe8 and then pawn b5 i am a defensive player
Wow nice..
You create a whole repertoire of KID for black..
😎💪
I will go with Qe8 and then pawn b5
Thank you! 👍
What I like about your lessons is every time I go, what about this move from my opponent?, you cover it and usually in sufficient depth. This is something I miss on other channels regularly, because I know from experience no move is too crazy for some opponents and the reply is not always clear because confusion is a weapon too. Having said this, did you, or can you cover the topic of hiding intentions? What I mean by this is that if you set up an attack or trap too obviously/directly the opponent won't fall for it, because they recognize the pattern too easily. This is where I disagree with the computer lines sometimes. I think yes, that is maybe the best move, but I play against humans and am not a computer! That's why I didn't play that move immediately dear Stockfish. I hope you get my drift.
Of course, Doug! I think I can talk about that whenever possible in future lessons. I made a note 👍 Anyways, this is a concept you will understand better as you improve your Chess in general.
👍👍
Lost games in the averbakh 😅 I got scared when they castle kingside and they start pushing the pawns in front of the king sometimes their king stays in the center and they just go all out ..... Thanks for this.
And the pawn push in kid is failing everytime they bring defenders in time 😕
Ahh we have to fix that! 💪 If you like, share that game you had trouble with the pawn push line or any other 😎
