Never clicked on a video so fast. The benko is such a great opening. There's a really cool game Gligoric-Nyback where White goes for the king walk and in the middlegame black finds a brutal exchange sac and transfers his pieces from qside to kside in a flash
Benko goes well with coffee.

Love this. IMO very useful for King's Indian players to have some grasp of Benko positions as well. Gawain Jones' King's Indian repertoire has some nice ideas in it - one of which is that at certain moments, even when there's a Knight on c3 , you can still play the b5 sacrifice and White has to capture cxb, because his c3 Knight is tied down defending a pawn on e4.
Pleased to see our good coach cover such an interesting opening. Much love from a loving fan ❤😊.
Thank you so much 😁
Pls, more branchs of the benko. A really nice opening. Id walk a long mile to learn this one.
I've never clicked on a chess video this fast. Thank you, András
My opponents won't see this coming😂 I'm ditching the Bogo Indian for the Benko, fair trade
It was great seeing this live on your stream - you sold us all on giving it a try.
Hope you enjoy it!

Yeeeeessss. I have long awaited this video
hugely useful and educational, as always!
Woke up and found this endeavor... thanks andras, genius
Fantastic lesson! You're absolutely one of the best coaches on RUclips. Would love to see some games where white is successful in the Benko
Great video coach, watching it second time ✌️👏

FatbellyMatKelly here. Really appreciate this video. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
It would be great to see a benko course on chessable authored by you.
#chesspunk video as always, certainly a new weapon to add to my d4 beginner repertoire for black and climb the rating ladder. Thank you Andras!
If you are sub 1800 dont touch the benko
@@mateusznowicki9358 Yeah, because it would totally ravage everyone on that level, be merciful to your club buddies! On the serious note, the higher you go on the rating range, the more frustrating it is to play the Benko, because at around 2000 people would start to either avoid it with move orders, or, more rarely, play some refutational variation which are many and tough to face. I switched to main Nimzo/Semi-slav when I felt that my good old Benko isn't such a fierce weapon anymore, but I definitely have a warm spot in my heart for it, and still play it occasionally. So I'd suggest the comment chain starter to totally try it out below 1800, the plans are clear for you and not so much for your opponent, the game is in your hands.
it really made me crave for benkő gambit
Underrated channel
Epic stuff!

Awesome video!
Amazing content!
Ugh, finally found the opening for me. As much as I’ve tried to make my QGD robust and spicy, I just had to take up the gauntlet here as my choice to play for the win.
Why benko with 2Nf3 doesn't work? Black can just play 2...c5 3.d5 b5
Because that is not the Benko and is also not that good in my humble opinion.
like playing London but retaining your dignity 😂😂
How not to lose to benko video pls
That's easy: 1. e4 😊
or 1.d4 2.Nf3 (3.c4) will avoid the Benko, I’m pretty sure
