    I've been a London player for several years now and gotten to the position at 2:36 many many times and I find using Magnus' strategy of leaving the bishop on f4 is most comfortable to play as well. I've seen some have a lot of success retreating to g3 and then enjoying the open h file with the rook, but black bishop taking on f4 and then pawn taking back leaves white with a very nice open e file right down the heart of the board. Sure, it costs a tempo to then move the kingside rook over after castling, but that's the same tempo gained from not retreating the bishop earlier to g3. If black then takes my knight on e5, I can recapture with the pawn and I'm back to having a fully intact pawn chain.

      @Brandon Young I've promised myself not to play as boring of an opening as the London system. Then again, I'm reminding myself I'm an English player and I cannot judge. Maybe I will try it one day.

      @brandony8691 4 года назад

      Carpet Climber The English is my other go-to opening. It’s great for when you plan to play the same opponent several times in a row: one really solid but boring/predictable opening and one less usual opening that is good for getting people away from theory.

    Always enjoy your instruction and analysis. The beauty of the London System is just how standard so many of the opening moves are, as you suggested. I've been in a very similar positions over the first dozen moves or so in Blitz games.
    Once he forced the Queen side castle, I think it really took him out of any plan he had, something that is paramount in short time games.

    Eric, watching you play the Stafford has inspired me to play the Boden-Kierseritzky Gambit (basically the Stafford as white with a tempo up). The Wikipedia page says it's unsound, but the engine only finds 1 move to maintain black's advantage and 2 others that maintain equality, none of which look appealing prima facie. The only move to maintain advantage is f6! The computer may be able to play f6, but I consider that full compensation in any game below titled classical time format level.
