    Your content is “top notch.” Your videos always make me go “Wow,” this is such “high level” “legendary” stuff.
    As appreciation for your content, I purchased all your courses on Chessable, and haven’t been disappointed.
    Thank you!

    Hey Coach, just picked up your course Chess Principles Reloaded - Development, I just had to say, apart from being extremely instructive. What stands out to me is your enthusiasm when you talk about these positions, it makes it such an enjoyable watch :)

    I've had a few good swindles myself. Smerdon almost put one of my games into the book after I published it on reddit, but he decided against it later. I'll buy the book asap anyway!

    I bought it as soon as it appeared on Chessable. Highly recommended! Beside its educational value, it´s just very entertaining to read.

    Nice! It’s funny how people reference bullet like it’s alcohol! 😆
    “I played a lot of bullet, which I shouldn’t have done”
    Wow! I will probably get this book, it’s just too fascinating!

    There is another recently released book called ‘On the Origin of Good Moves’
    It has a lot of good history in it, but I was wondering how good you thought it would be to read for people to improve? At first I thought it was not helping me at all, but I am a good amount into the book and I am seeing a lot of the book’s ideas appear in my games. It is kind of a strange thing, because the players don’t always play great moves, but their ideas are very interesting.

    In a sense, a lost position is probably the only instance when we should play a bit of hope chess. Tricky moves give you some chance and force your opponent to refute your intentions. Sometimes, it is not easy to play such a game even though the engine would say +4, +5 for you...
