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.

This is amazing! I'd love to see more videos on the Grünfeld defense!
👍😎
Great stuff! Fischer played it in his only ever game against Botvinnik. The game was ultimately drawn, but Black had the chances!
I’d love to see more of this defense!! Thanks, Robert! You are the man!! 👍
Hi Coach...I just started to play the Grunfeld...would like to see more of your videos on this opening. Thanks, Ken
Your channel has inspired me so much, I adopted the Pirc as my main defence against e4. I love your teaching style so seeing you go through the Grünfeld and it’s main ideas would be amazing!
Thanks a lot for your feedback, Marcos! 👍💪
I once considered learning the Gruenfeld, but I changed my mind when I saw how much theory I would need to learn.
Same here. I considered the Svidler course on Chessable and even 2200+ players remarked how difficult the course was to master.
Great opening well taught video!
Awesome lesson coach. I've always wanted to look into the Grunfeld but wow it's soooo double edged and risky (or so I've heard). Having said that, yes, I'd love to see more Grunfeld lessons. Maybe I'll grow some cajones and actually use it otb 😂
Yes yes yes.
When I play the KID everyone has a plan against it but at the amateur level the Gru still has some surprise value. Also it is a simple step to playing the Catalan as white.
More please!!! hint I love the old book Zoom 001 by Bent Larsen.
More tutorial about grudfeld opening please 🙏
I'd like to see more Grunfeld, Svidler's course is there but I feel better getting explanations the way you do them
Hey Robert, i am a Grünfeld Player since years and it’s a great opening and it would be great if you would analyze it for us. I became a Pirc defense player because of you and I'd really like to see your view on the Grünfeld
This looks good. Another string on the bow to the hyper modern opening, like u said.
💪😎
nice lesson nm
coach cn give some grundfeld opening theories? quite interested....!!
Thanks you
Yes, I'd love to see more videos on the Grunfeld. I played it in my early days but eventually switched to the King's Indian. However, I often wonder whether or not to switch back to it because it is so theoretically respected at the highest levels. The main thing that has deterred me is the sheer volume of theory to learn in the Grunfeld and the reputation that it becomes drawish if White knows theory. Of course, the King's Indian is also very heavy with theory so my question to you is whether or not you feel learning the Grunfeld is practical and worth the effort for a class A level player who already knows the King's Indian?
Che bello vedere un attacco sul lato di Re realizzato con la Difesa Grunfeld. In questa variante giocavo sempre 10...Ag4; Ottimo video, provero' anche io a giocare 10....Ca5 e poi 11....b6. Grazie per il video.
I've been looking into the grunfeld after looking for something to play against d4 (ive just been spamming the caro kann move order and it didnt feel right). the theory here certainly is a bit if a dissuasion. thank you for your insights!
Yes!!
How to see whole board & next move
The Grünfeld defense looks very interesting, yet way more complicated than the Pirc defense. Perhaps if one studies its lines it's better than Pirc? Idk But I'd love to see more on that opening from you Robert. Explaining alternative lines, secret weapons and that stuff.
This would be in place of the King's Indian rather than the Pirc, since it's a d4 defence. Yes, it's more complicated, but it is very well regarded.
What would you recommend as an addition to pirc against e4? Grünfeld or KID? Where are the differences?
The Grünfield has a lot of theory and needs a lot of tactics than KID.
Also what time do they usually start in your time, as since you are based in USA, I am 7 hours ahead of your country and would like to play you.
Are there no longer Tournaments on Thursday?
@8:48 just before 5 minutes my opponent sacrificed a piece and i had winning position with 3 points of material from move 8..but i lost ..great lesson learnt today.
We have all been here 😅💪
I think its time for step by step
nice game but I wonder if it's worth learning a second opening against d4 (the first being KID of course). playing against d4 is rarer than e4 to begin with, so maybe it's better to stick to KID? When I'm ready for alternative opening I think it will be an alternative to the Pirc because e4 is much more common
Absolutely! Use this to expand your horizons, but you don't have to start using it 👍💪
I have a question that persistently bugs me.
What should we look for first? King safety, or ensuring we have a proper grasp of what material is on the board?
Intuitively I want to go straight for looking at king safety, but that reeks of not reading the question properly before starting to solve it.
Equally, I don't want to overcomplicate things and break the natural flow of thinking and intuition.
Like before watching dear Robert
Thank you, Vasyl! 🙌👍
I like Grunfeld but I had to stop playing it because my tactics are not that good. Also I am not that good at spotting my opponents' tactics.
I see the point, but it just feels wrong to give white so much room in the center. On the other hand, I like how the game is more open than in a typical KID. More information, please😁
You got it Jefferson! 💪😎
I am happy with my boring nimzo, ragozin and KID , grunfeld is just not good for a positional person like me , I have tried it and won but it's just keeping me at the edge on every move, 🤣
Plz dont stop playing pirc and KID in your games. I changed my entire repertoire to follow you
Never! 💪😎
