at 14:56 pawn takes pawn leads to bishop taking pawn. Free development for white. Also you allow them take a piece that you have moved twice by moving once.
The Minority Attack. It's a 200-year-old strategy and has nothing to do with law enforcement or anything like that. Hardest I've ever laughed at a chess video.
14:50 Because if you do capture the pawn you are only helping your opponent develope bishop. When he chose where to put his white square bishop then you can capture to gain momentum and time (extra move)
I am just 700 ELO and this is the first time I actually followed up with a chess video explaining games and actually understood what to do. Thank you so much!
@@mortalchess yea i saw that video, it was awesome. Accelerated dragon is a little bit vbetter for beginners imo bc you can consistently get similar positions whereas regular dragon doesn't work as well when opp doesn't play open sicilian
@@SilentWraith1373 Well worth it, he is an expert in the caro kann and has a ton of youtube content on it covering all variations (and a chessable course)
14:48 we should only take the pawn after the light square bishop moves, that way the light square bishop would have to move again to capture back our pawn hence wasting 2 moves for the same piece and losing tempo.
Taking pawn on c4 will help the bishop to develop if they developed the bishop to e2 or d3 we can take the pawn on c4 making it to make a second move and we can also gain some tempo by attacking the bishop
Because if you do capture the pawn you are only helping your opponent develope bishop. When he chose where to put his white square bishop then you can capture to gain momentum and time (extra move)
All chess openings lead to equality. An engine can't cover a repertoire with a large move tree. 1 e3 prevents this and you can stay in your engine prep to move 20 and beyond no matter what the other side does. I got to 2384 on Lichess this way and give away my training material (I'm not ruled by money and want the largest possible audience).
watching mortal chess to learn chess vs to learn humor anyway @mortalchess i think a video on endgame principle will be extremely useful. Personally I do the opening perfectly gain some advantage in middle game and flop in the endgame.
(8:50) that opening being displayed here... it's "similar" with a style that's virtually unknown to the type of players that study chess & all these "different named styles"... *just about every time u hear about or see a grandmaster or other high level players losing to randoms or unknown players, or a suprise finalist tournament player, even most of the child players that beat highlevel players frequently or in tournaments... *almost all of those players use that virtually "unknown chess play style"... *The players that "use it on purpose" to open, usually know how to play using that unknown style for the whole game... -rarely losing to high level players during timed, 5min or 10min matches... even during tournaments... but all that extra time allowing players to just sit & look & sit & think, & sit, &...... well, u get it... the higher level & master's & GMs & such... they figure out things somwtimes & end up surviving... Against all odds... yeah, thats how i say & see it going... *The player using black used it to open accidentally... up till that pawn set up (8:53) Bishop being moved as it was... The next several moves could have ended up being drastically different for white... *It's called "G-Style"... -yes, its growing popularity is fairly new to the chess world (tho, u most likely wont hear a player using, stating they are using it... especially because half the players don't know how to play while using the "G-Style" intentionally... newayz... continue video
The pawn on C4 is not taken down right away as it would allow white to develop his bishop on a preferred spot in one move, so when the bishop moves and then the pawn is captured, it needs another move to occupy the position of desire, handing down the tempo to black
15:00 You only capture on c4 after the bishop moves because it forces your opponent to move the same piece twice, winning a tempo, since white must respond.
I think the reason you don't want to capture the pawn at 14:47 before whites bishop moves is because it would give white a free developing move wheras capturing after it moves potentially makes white waste a tempo
15:53 you don’t capture the pawn here because the opponent would capture back with the light-squared bishop with tempo, allowing for him to gain development, and putting you behind.
The reason to wait on capturing white's c pawn until after he moves his white square bishop is because of tempo, making him move his bishop twice instead of offering him free development.
Nothing wrong with Caro Kann. But I'm a devout Jacques Mieses believer and follower. Let's negate the central board positioning by using every square on the board. The battle is in front of us. What we do with the time is our own.

The Minority Attack. It's a 200-year-old strategy and has nothing to do with law enforcement or anything like that. Hardest I've ever laughed at a chess video.
Coz it's just minority attack so simple😂😂😂

Hardest Ive laughed at any video 💀
I thought I was watching SNL for a split second
That joke hit hard 😂
14:50 Because if you do capture the pawn you are only helping your opponent develope bishop.

U should get pinned.
And also because you want your pawn where it is to lock whites pawn on d4
I am just 700 ELO and this is the first time I actually followed up with a chess video explaining games and actually understood what to do. Thank you so much!
The humor throughout this vid makes it my favorite chess video. Also, I love the Caro-Kann.
This channel got me glued💯
You are an amazing chess teacher
Wow, thank you!
I love you videos with the few jabs you throw our way lol
lol thanks man, I'm a big bro to 3 little monsters.. that kinda humor comes naturally.

We need a video on the nimzo-zimbabwean now lol. Another good idea would be the accelerated dragon sicilian, imo best sicilian for beginners
i got a dragon sicilian vid..but I'm thinking of making a longer one

@@mortalchesswhat about the najdorf ficher special?
Wow. I didn't realize my strategy has a name and wasn't unique unto myself. Very humbling and nice to know.
I thought the minority attack was my own invention as well🤣..until I read about it, they done discovered everything..
Bro ur sense of humour is awesome

The fact that I recognize the Alex games shows that I watch too many Caro Kann Vids

@@mortalchess But where is the video of your Nimzo-Zimbabewean Defense.

Like the way you explain the moves and what happens if you don’t
Thank you so much very informative 😊
Great instruction and hilarious comments. This is the best way to learn chess!
Taking pawn on c4 will help the bishop to develop if they developed the bishop to e2 or d3 we can take the pawn on c4 making it to make a second move and we can also gain some tempo by attacking the bishop

I love the humor. Just right and educational.
Because if you do capture the pawn you are only helping your opponent develope bishop.

17:18 the line of white backing up: 1. Qe2 Nd4 2. Nd4 Rd4 3. Qe5!! K-- 4. Rd4 Rd4 5. Rd4 White wins a rook with a tempo on the king
great explanation with great humour.

Thank you for this excellent video
yo 9:23 LMFAO the minority attack. Nothing to do with LE. your channel is the best chess channel ever bro
14:53 "You do not want to take this pawn until this bishop moves..." To make the white pieces player lose a tempo!
15:00 You only capture on c4 after the bishop moves because it forces your opponent to move the same piece twice, winning a tempo, since white must respond.
3:12 nahhh im done 😂
🤣lol some moves have that effect on an opponent
This made me laugh. You earned yourself a subscriber.
This is the funniest video ever. The nimzo Zimbabwean defence 😂😂😂😂
Glad I found your channel 😂
In my opinion the most op opening for black is always kings Indian defense which I use all the time and never dissapoint me
Surely the very last move is g8=Q (followed by Rxg8, Rxg8) and not Ra7+ which allows the White King to approach the pawn at g7?
I think the reason you don't want to capture the pawn at 14:47 before whites bishop moves is because it would give white a free developing move wheras capturing after it moves potentially makes white waste a tempo
I can honestly say, I am very entertained, the jokes are top tier, keep it up Zimbabwean sir
*You're QUITE funny! GREAT vid!* 💜💜
15:53 you don’t capture the pawn here because the opponent would capture back with the light-squared bishop with tempo, allowing for him to gain development, and putting you behind.
My King, you drop this 👑
Great to see you post more and more.
Hey on a separate note what happened to your older chess on meds intro?
This has to be the most entertaining "chess for dummies" channel on RUclips 😂
14:53, you dont take pawn until bitshop move so that u gain tempo
(8:15-8:25) u don't mind cauz ur a different bread...
Savagely said 👏🏽👏🏼👏🙌
Yo this narrator is Hilarious!😂
Anyone and everyone I TOOK ONE FOR THE TEAM he is on the other side of screen so PLEASE BELIVE ME THIS ONE TIME and skip 1:41 to 1:44
lol I put a lil something for you at 4:43
I love the Caro-Kann defense but i dislike one thing. It can become very claustrophobic
18:43 you could have did Rd1! getting the queen instead of e5
Do you have a video covering play against the fantasy variation?
Argh..... I Ilive your videos, can you do a video like this one for the English open??
FUNNY VIDEO, I WILL TRY THE CARO CANN FOR A MONTH
Hit the caro kann with the alien gambit!!
Can you please make a video on the nimzo-Zimbabwean defence
lol I just might
14:50 if you take it develops the bishop for free
But if they move the bishop say be2 you can take now because the bishop was already development
0:06 caption spelling
insvestigate😅 f me , I jus noticed
13:19 white takes horse
That Panov game was insane.
You have to wait for the bishop on f1 to move before playing dxc4 so that you can gain a tempo
The reason to wait on capturing white's c pawn until after he moves his white square bishop is because of tempo, making him move his bishop twice instead of offering him free development.
Funny AF
Instant sub'd
