Love these videos! I'm an extreme beginner at chess (only started because of your channel). I know a couple good openings(london system, Sicilian, caro kann, english) but I get lost in the mid game where I don't know what the plans are for either player. Appreciate the videos and I hope to see you in the FIDE top 100 soon :)
Thank you very much. I didn't like Nd2 because you block the Bishop, so I usually do Nc3. But after this explanation I may try something new, especially if I know I am facing a strong opponent. Thank you for your time. Great video!
In my opinion it is a really nice idea to make opening tutorials and maybe you could create an overview of the most common openings so you could present in later videos deeper lines and analysis in a certain opening. It's great fun to watch your videos especially when you started uploading one video per day and I like most of the developments of your RUclips channel. Mach weiter so :) 👍
Thanks so much for this video!!! I was always looking for videos, which are about openings.Keep going and please do more opening tutorials!Grüsse aus der Schweiz
Please Upload videos on chess openings with idea behind every move on English opening, Catalan opening,Sicilian opening,Queens gambit, Gruenfiel defence,Kings indian defence,Bird's opening,Dutch defence,Sctoch opening,Vienna game,Ruy lopez, Nimzo indian defence,London system, and others.
Joydev Das that's a good idea but you know what , it takes lots of time and energy . So , I think it will be great to have some more videos on a particular opening so that the viewer can have a good knowledge of some systems / set ups of that opening . So , let's give French a go for now . Cheers !!!
I totally feel the same. If not for 3....c5 (especially after 4....Qxd5, 4....exd5 I like to play against Isolani, although Black is fine there and gets active piece play) I would exclusively play 3.Nd2, as I pretty much like most of the other positions for white after that. Many top players think 3.Nc3 is the best (only?) way to play for an advantage, and as far as I know Negi recommends it in his book, too. The downside for amateur players is the jungle of sharp variation that you can get. I'm just not able to remember them all and some positions are too concrete. 'Playing by feel' and positional understanding alone doesn't always help and one tiny little mistake and you may loose. I think you can't have the solidity of 3.Nd2 and the attacking chances of 3.Nc3 combined. No risk, no fun :) But how do you handle the mess of crazy complicated variations after 3.Nc3 in the French or (even worse!) 6.Bg5 in the Najdorf (AFAIK it's your main weapon against Najdorf), especially after forgetting the exact move order? BTW I really like your presentation style, that you are concentrating on ideas and plans, not just the moves!
Hey !! It was an amazing video . 👍👍👍👍 Please cover the Nd2 line in depth so that we can play it as well and have good results . Sending you tons of love .☺️

Bitte stelle hier mehr Eröffnungsvideos rein und gehe dann in die Details, wie du es wohl auch ursprünglich geplant hast. Danke, deine Videos sind sehr interessant und hilfreich. Du machst da ne superSache mit Zukunft für alle lernwilligen Spielern, wie auch ich es bin
Also ich finde Eröffnungsvideos grundsätzlich sehr gut. Allerdings fände ich es besser wenn du nach dem Video über eine Eröffnung Videos über die einzelnen Varianten machst. Also mehr in die Tiefe einer Eröffnung gehst. Außerdem könntest du vielleicht noch drüber sprechen welche Varianten besonders für Blitz geeignet sind. Ich schätze mal die Winawer Variante sollte da gut möglich sein für weiß. Der Aljechin-Chatard-Angriff vermute ich mal auch ? Auf jeden Fall ein gutes Video.
In my humble opinion chess players tend to focus much to much on the opening. Studying the opening is not a bad thing. But it should come after knowing how to calculate your candidates correctly. Identify your candidates in a efficient way and have a basic knowledge about the strategic principles. In the spare time the most important endgames should be studied and known more or less by hard. If you completed that training and play three to four tournaments a year you should have a ELO around 2200 to 2400. And now you can start to study openings deeply because before you would not be able to understand the types of middlegames and the correct handling of the position. That's actually what really good trainers have taught me.
Thank you very much for this, I really like the french defense. Could you recommend me any material for beginner-intermediate chess players on the french? Great video!
hi GM Huschenbeth. was just wondering what would you do if white plays e5 after your e6 move? you wont be able to develop a knight to f6 i guess your next option is knight to c3 and white going pawn to d4? sorry still new to this game
I like your videos, but here there are just way too many ideas in too short a time here; you cover what could be 10 hours of lectures at least. Maybe better: Give the viewer YOUR recommendation, and why. Also; it would be an idea to suggest a typical game from the variation, for further study. Keep up the good work!
Love these videos!

How do you think about the move c4 at 8:00 (for black), followed by Qa5?
I totally feel the same. If not for 3....c5 (especially after 4....Qxd5, 4....exd5 I like to play against Isolani, although Black is fine there and gets active piece play) I would exclusively play 3.Nd2, as I pretty much like most of the other positions for white after that.

Was ist mit Läufer auf b5?

So tell me how to train that efficient.
I like them pretty much, so please show every opening against 1.e4 !
Thank you very much for this, I really like the french defense. Could you recommend me any material for beginner-intermediate chess players on the french? Great video!
hi, do you teach privately? thanks.
For the moment not
hi GM Huschenbeth. was just wondering what would you do if white plays e5 after your e6 move? you wont be able to develop a knight to f6 i guess your next option is knight to c3 and white going pawn to d4? sorry still new to this game
Best video so far. Not that your other videos were bad (don't make me comment of the day please!)
Nice! Thx! 👍
Für einen relativ schwachen spieler wie mich sind solche viedeos einfach goldwert...gerne mehr davon🖒
Finde ich super, danke
Keep making video in 10minute
I hate video length over 15minute

Wow I am first
