The knowledge you share towards openings, middle games are incredible. Currently, learning the Sicilian variations from your videos. Keep up the good work!!
I play the Scotch, the Scandinavian and the QGA and several lines of those openings lead to opposite side castling. Very fun and sharp games. Very useful to know diferents pawn structures.
Thank you Stjepan. Your videos have been extremely useful for both my own improvement, as well as some of my friends’. The explanation you give of openings is already thorough, and helpful; but these middle game concept videos are uniquely beneficial. Pawn structures, opposite side castling, blundering less in general. Very helpful content.
I discovered your site by accident and subscribed. Very competently and clearly presented material and appealing design of your channel. Thank you very much, I'm looking forward to your next ideas.
Inspiring analysis and food for thought. My own notable lines within this theme would include the black side of the Four Knights Italian (if they don't know to retreat the bishop after the center fork trick), most lines of the Bronstein Scandinavian, the white side of the Pirc, and I'm on the black side of the Nimzo attack in the Petrov. What you said about pieces in same side attacks versus pawns on opposite side attacks resonated with me. I think I'm much better with pieces than pawn storms. Something to work on! Thank you.
Excellent explication of opposite side castling. As usual your instruction is top notch. I heard your interview with Ben Johnson on the Perpetual Chess Podcast. I am amazed by your personal time management abilities, and your commitment to chess improvement. I disagree with Ben. I believe you may reach your goal. Although I also feel you could become a great trainer. You make your own luck. I look forward to your analyses of your GM norms.
Thank you for believing in me David. It really helps to have such support from a person so obviously well educated, polite, intelligent and kind. Once again, you make me push on!
Bok Stjepane! Odličan kanal. Možeš li napraviti serijal o Bird's opening ili barem možda preporučiti neki knjigu, linkati materijale i preporučiti GM koji ga igra. Hvala unaprijed :)
Hvala Ivane! Da, napravit ću serijal o Birdovom. Do tad evo neke preporuke: Bird's Opening - Detailed Coverage of an Underrated and Dynamic Choice for White (Taylor)
Consider the 90 positions in 9LX where you have to move a rook on 1 side to castle on the other side. What to do about castling then when you can't seem to keep your 'poker face' up re the video 'When to DELAY Castling in Chess!!' (5lVvs0JB5ME) ? See 'How many Chess960 positions exist in which castling on 1 side does not require moving the rook on the other side?' On Chess Stack Exchange
