    I was a sicilian player. Since you give the MaCutcheon lesson (probably i spelled wrong) i'm studing and playing lots of French.
    Thanks for your indisputably best didatic.

    I enjoyed and learned from this vid. I'd like to see similar discussions of other openings, especially the Scotch and the Benoni

    Seeing as one of the main tennants of the Caro Kann is black trying to maintain a superior pawn structure, if you plan to do more of these types of videos, I would love seeing the Caro Kann showcased.

    could you please do a chessopeningsexplained from modern defence a6 systems for black?Or the exchange variation of the spanish for white????

  • @tonysu8860
    @tonysu8860 4 года назад

    Useful and entertaining lecture.
    But, was guessing different pawn structures when first mentioned... ie typical locked center, semi-open resulting from Rubenstein and Exch French.. Also, I consider the "very long" double pawn chain when black plays at least pawn c4 or which is able to play f6 without exchanging as special formations.
    But, what is presented here is a reasonably good intro for beginning students.

    24:04 not a little bit.
    Not at all in fact (I hope you didn't get jumpy). It was a good and useful game. Thanks for sharing it, and for the lecture.

    @dennisp.6265 8 лет назад +3

    It may be not exactly fit into this type of lecture, but I'd love to see a lecture about pawn levers. Especially the levers which were actual a temporary sacrifice in order to mess with your opponents position. I consequently fail at seeking and playing them in the right moment. -,-
    Keep up the good work, greetings from Germany! :-)

    Its true that when black plays french he is aiming for the draw ?
    Thanks for the great video Jonathan

    • @toesdoeswhoknows704
      @toesdoeswhoknows704 4 года назад

      William Moura No he is not, he is looking for queenside counterplay and to undermine the centre and hopefully create and attack whites weaknesses in the centre. It leads to dynamic non drawish positions

    French defense:
    1. e4, black resigns

    •  8 лет назад +12

      1.e4 - Black resigns, surrenders and moves his forces out of Paris so Nazi army can invade the city.

    @adamrubinson6875 8 лет назад +1

    I think objectively, the French Advance is equal, at least according to my Engin when following theory.
    The Classical and Tarrasch give White chances for an edge.

      If you see an almost perfect game, you will hardly understand whst can go wrong I think.

    • @tonysu8860

      Nearly all games at every level can be instructive.
      Often depends on the annotator, and of course can depend on the types of errors.
      If the annotator is unable to understand or evaluate the position properly, then you won't learn from the master game.
      Also, relatively few players play games at master level, sometimes students need to recognize the problems they most often will encounter before learning about concepts at the more advanced level.
      I commonly describe this as the difference between knowledge and wisdom...
      Students learn from a curriculum to gain knowledge.
      When the student understands how and when to break the lessons learned, wisdom is gained.
