I have been pleasantly surprised by the efficacy of an isolated queen's pawn, sometimes. 😉 Another engaging lesson. Amazing quality in your presentations. Thank you for sharing your training journey with so many who hope, and work, for improving their chess.
Thank you for uploading so regularly. You are great at explaining and I improved much just by watching a few videos of yours. Please keep saving my days! 👍
Thank you, Stjepan. The truth is I´ve avoided to play with an isolated pawn and prefed playing against it. Now, thanks to you, I´m able to see even advantages of having one and to understand how to play not only against it but with it too. Have a nice day!
@@HangingPawns Really is great stuff! I've found your Middlegame series particularly helpful, especially the video on weak square. That's a concept I've found pretty challenging, your video made the ideas seem simple and clear, and that alone has improved my play. Thanks again!
Hanging Pawns You are not able to make series on book so no problem but make video on following topic. What do when we have have lead in developement but material down
I really enjoy your content Stjepan, started watching you ~1 month ago. As a constructive criticism to improve the quality of your videos, look into fixing the microphone fuzz/buzz. I doubt you'd need to invest into a new michrophone, should be a matter of optimising the recording settings.
Great video :). In the first example, wouldn't white playing e5 (instead if moving the bishop) win a knight as it's also a discovered attack on the queen? Not sure if I am missing something or not.
I have a question, I’m not that high rated, and my friend says when playing good players, it is not good to play too positionally, would you also support this?
That's not true in my opinion. That's exactly what higher rated players bank on. Us hanging ourselves with overly aggressive play and risking too much. They hate positional play and slow, solid improvement. My advice would be play as boring and as good as possible:)
Middle game ideas are simply great. Thanks for your time.
Thank you for watching mate:)

but you really have to listen closely to realise it
It really is barely hearable
I will try to do something about it. The problem is that there is a bus road right outside the flat I just moved to. It's the traffic.
If you are recording in OBS, there are ways to apply filters to the recorded sound, should help a bit!
