- The Jobava London System can be responded to in various ways. The best and safest by far for black is to strike out on white's weak center with the early c5.

The main line against the Jobava is very tricky for white to face. It either gives black an equal, safe position, or an equal mad position in which both sides have to attack and defend perfectly in order to avoid a quick defeat.

hello, not sure if you have time to read comments but I wanted to thank you for your hard work building this channel. I discovered it recently and I already know I'll be studying many of your videos on openings, which are one of the most exciting parts of chess for me. and, as many people point out, your graphic design is on point. keep it up!
Couldn't agree more. I study too on his videos! I wrote down on paper the lines then i try them on a physical board...kinda old School 🤣
Nicely done, thank you. Would be helpful if you could also cover briefly what happens if White plays 4. e4 instead of 4. e3
Great work Sir. I regularly follow your channel. Your tutorials have greatly improved my interest and skills in Chess.
Greetings from Kenya - Africa
Thanks for an excellent summary of the Black possible moves. I recently started playing the Jobava London and this video is much simpler and easier to remember and review than either my Chessable course or the GM Simon course.
Love the vids. On ....Qa5, my preferred move is NF3 instead of giving up my DS bishop. Been playing the JL for 2 years now and really enjoy it. Have fun with it!
Incredible on many levels! Thank You!
Your contents are precious. Cant thank enough for all the lesson you gave and what is more?
It is 100% free
Thanks, very nice!
Haven't seen all of this vid yet, but I love it so far as you have laid out clear plans for black to get equality...
really appreciated.
Great work! Are you going to cover the English opening at some point?
I should add to my previous comment that this video is really good. Thank you!
thankyou i keep getting crushed by this opening now i know some theory lol
All I wonder is if this is better than if you go c5 on move 2 without playing d5. That transposes to the Old Benoni though.
That is a bold bold claim. E6 is generally preferred
ha...'sign the scoresheets...!' yep, good one 'cos you're right!
Good video
Hey mate, I have been watching your videos for last year but still suck at chess plz tell me some methods to improve at chess. To make it easier I have ChessBase 16 and Fritz 17 but I don't know how to use it effectively,.
Stjepan has a video on this channel especially targeting this question. For those who seek shall find 😉
Please continue the endgame series
When using the London system, should you generally castle king- or queenside? I always use the London system and think that queenside is way much better, but I see a lot of people castling kingside with the London system.
I’m not an expert, but I think castling, not castling, and castling queenside can and should be used in different situations. As a beginner London player, I usually get the open H file for my rook after my opponent trades my bishop on g3, and so I would either not castle (usually in a closed center) or castle queenside (usually when the king is more vulnerable in the center) in order to gain early initiative and an attack on the opponent’s kingside.
This attack usually comes after (if I can) moving my Knight to e5 and playing f4 as a kind of Stonewall kind of setup. Then I would try to put my Queen on a5 to continue with my attack, with my (sometimes) light squared bishop, rook, and Queen staring at the a7 pawn. Surprisingly, though I am still a beginner and therefore play many other beginners, a few actually immediately lose after this attack after not being able to defend their king.
But I usually don’t get this aggressive setup as white, and just having the open rook is usually good on it’s own if you can get it. If you don’t get it, then either castling options are usually just fine. But the king is usually a bit safer on g1 than on c1 in most cases (I could be wrong, though), and might be more solid(?), leading to more people castling kingside. But either way is usually fine and depends on the situation. Maybe saying that you should only castle queenside if you have a clear reason to is when you should do it would be the best way to put it.
Edit: Also, you don’t always need to castle in the London, as your king might be safer in a closed center if you have one.
Don't castle in London as long as the king is safe
best!
13:00 what about Be4?
4:14 after black plays Qa5, white has b4!
I think 3... a6 4. e3 e6 is much more easily equalizing
4 ..e6 gives white 5 g4. A surprisingly solid move would be 4..h6. White has nothing serious against it.
@@paul-petertheulings1276 4 ..e6 5.g4 Bb4! ...What is white going to do with his king? Black can counterattack with eg ..Ne8 intending ..Nd6, ..f5, ..e5 and may be slightly better according to the fish.
Just try to play the Jobava against stockfish. It didn't have any trouble defeating it.
Best variaiton is a6 I play a lot
I like 5…Bg4
When in doubt sac the queen and offer draw
