    Our Hippopotamus Defense series continues with a great game by GM Pavel Blatny. Whether you are a seasoned Hippo chess opening player, or if you just heard about the Hippo Defense for the first time, we hop you enjoy this video! We look to cover the chess moves, chess ideas, chess strategy, chess theory, chess tricks, chess traps, chess lines, and chess variations of the Hippopotamus Defense (hippo defense, hippo opening, hippo defence, hippopotamus defence, hippo chess defense, hippo chess opening, etc.) and how you can use this as a chess opening for black and/or chess opening for white to bring you strong results! This is a good chess opening for beginners, good chess opening for intermediate players, and good chess opening for advanced players as well. It all depends on your style of play, but I reached the National Master (NM) title by playing nothing but the Hippo, and I hope you like the chess opening option too!

    Thanks for all your great free content!
    I have a suggestion: could you please talk more about pawn structure when playing the Hippo Defense? I think it's one of the important things we should know when using this defense.

    I don't get to say it enough so I'm adding it here. I really appreciate what you're doing and I appreciate your supporters that are allowing you to do this full time. Their support supports those of us that can't support but still want to get your Hippo wisdom. Thank you!

    Good stuff. Thanks for analyzing the N’s breakthrough sacrifice on h4, if white tries to lock up the kingside. In fact, thanks for covering the kingside tactics in pressing home B’s attack. Helps raise tactical perception and confidence. Cheers!

    Instructive as usual. When to move the c and f "support" pawns, as white, and when to move them, requires a demanding analysis/nerve😊. Thanks, Solomon.

    Solomon, I'd love to see a speedrun from 800 to 2000 with you playing the Hippo as W and B. Should be good for 10-12 videos. Any chance of that?

  • @randycarson9812

    Solomon (and anyone else): As Black playing the Hippo, would you rather see White play O-O or O-O-O and why?

    hi Solomon have you thought of sharing your questions regarding the moves on the queenside that Kasparov did in the Hippo game that you analyzed. I’ve reached out to SME in the past and people will many times appreciate your questions especially if I come with a humble tone.

    A lot of Hippo games actually end up looking like this.
    After those first ten moves, things can quickly go crazy with the Hippo player at the driver's seat.
    And for such a "passive" opening, pushing pawns in front of our King at the correct times is actually one of the key attacking ideas in the Hippo.
    That, and never giving up our Bishops as long as they have potential.
