If I subscribe for chessable pro can I have full access to your caro and london. Right now I'm using using free acount an I want to switch to pro if I can have access to your courses
Today i was playing amatour chess tournament , I was playing Jobava London, Caro Kann and Kings Indian once, funny enough my oponents fell for the Jobava London trap that Alex has teachen me 😅 Love ya ♟️🐐
i was doing ok in the caro kann with what i learnt from his videos but after buying his course im killing it couldn’t be happier and by the way i have the caro kann course made by a very famous IM / streamer and another from a good IM who also stream and i can say confidently Alex’s is the best
I’m 22/2300 rapid and the lower rated videos are helpful, but it’s even better seeing you demolish people I would play against who often put up more of a fight!! Also I loved the pause at 43:09 when you were debating whether you could say the bang bros joke or not 😂😂
There should be awards for the best chess videos… i am very sure this is the most instructive Jobava London video against fiancchetto setups! thank you so much Alex and wish you the best of luck finishing your JL course …
Its so comfortable not caring about your opponents opening choice White i London Black against e4 caro Black against others kings Indian defense ❤ Thanks alex
Would love an entire jobava video exploring different king side attacks when blacks light squared bishop is locked in by e6. I’ve been experimenting with a lot of different variants in that position and it’s been becoming one of my favorite variations
I have this really good, in-depth treatise called "The Blockade," written in the 1920's by? You guessed it! Nimzowitch! He expounds in great detail about the need for elasticity of the blockading piece. Good stuff.
Played my first Rapid chess game against a guy from India, he was good and beat him with the Jobava. In the end sacriced 2 rooks to promote pawn to a Q and # .. Love the Jomama !! Alex
Always love to follow your thoughts on those games! Love it! That's why I am a subscriber... if he moves there, black has already lost... Simply love it, ahahah
Hey Alex, I've been following you for at least 2 years and I've always loved your content so much. I watch the Jobava videos wheareas I'm playing the Vienna because I can counter the Jobava so easily at 1200 rapid elos where I'm hard stucked due to a lack of regularity i'd say 😅By the way are you planning to make another Vienna speedrun ? I feel we're a lot to have chosen that opening after watching your videos and it's been a long time we haven't had any new games to add on our data bases (very few content on that opening on YT I have to say) Keep up the good work, I've made up the biggest part of my repertoire thanks to you. bye
It would be nice to see Alex add a defense for 1.d4 (1.Nf3, 1.c4 too!) WIth the Caro-Kann as our e4 defense, the Slav would seem logical, but I just hate the exchange variation. I grow tired of the King's Indian, and white is a bit better in the Fianchetto and Bayonet. Any help coming Alex?
I love your videos and try to follow your example when I play. Could you please do a video of you against an aggressive pawn player that pushes all their pawns? For some reason this gives me trouble. Thank you and keep up the great work.
Is Jobava course coming in 2025? I want to buy your 2022 London course on chessable because of their Black Friday deal. But if the Jobava course is about to drop, I'd rather wait for that. I just have no idea when it's coming. Thanks for your hard work!
Never resign. I've had people stalemate up a queen, or run to the bathroom and not make it back and flag... that happened OTB once. The one on our floor was locked, they went down to the 2nd floor, locked, then the 1st floor, locked, and only then did they take the slow elevator to the 4th floor which was unlocked, but they were 5 minutes late. (G30) I was down a piece, too. Some people would resign. The game ends if you checkmate. Play for mate. The point of the game is to kill your op, not to get them in a headlock and make them say "uncle"
@railspony I respect it. It also depends on how much you respect your opponent and your own time. If you believe that it is the best use of your time to play it out, then go ahead. Lots of people would just queue up a new game at some point
Currently I'm around 1300 in rapid and my biggest problem is that I'm mostly ahead after the opening and when the opponent doesnt make any obvious mistake I don't really know what to do. Anybody else with this problem?
Amazeballs! Joe Biden London strikes again. When u said u saw a RUclips comment where someone challenged your Jobava Vs his Pirc, I’m not sure what you meant, maybe.. was it him? Anyway, not sure
How the fuck does a mad comment have zero acknowledgment but the most lame repetitive dribble will get a hard to fathom amount of attention?!? Sorry, oh cos we’re dumb as fuck!
Hey Mr. Banzea! I am a 32 years old poor Bulgarian guy. Played my first game of chess 2 years ago and fell in love with the game. Now I signed in for a strong tournament taking place on 14th of December (Saturday). I love you so much and your videos helped me go up to 1500 ELO. But now I am about to face a massive challenge… I am trying to prepare myself, but unfortunately I play bad and feel stuck. Don’t have any confidence… If you think it will be a good content to give me a week of coaching and upload my results from the tournament please contact me. I will be the happiest man in the world and forever grateful! I love your jokes and your cat! My one is called Sofi and looks exactly like yours!
Why chess tutorials are insanely high? I know these tutorials are output of thousands of hours of effort but when you sell it to a mass number of people then it should be much cheaper.
I can tell you that after watching Alex's videos, my penis has indeed gotten bigger but unfortunately my game hasn't improved as much! I find that blundering is my biggest downfall. Sometimes, I start shaking & my heart beats faster. I wish Alex can make some videos about control & how to blunder less. I usually play 5 mins/5 sec. In any case, I enjoy these videos a lot. - StartingT0Learn. btw Alex, I've sent you a couple of emails but got no response.
These videos have zero instructional value to levels still in the process of blundering. That is the truth. To avoid blundering you must in every game evaluate your tactical chances: 1. Checks 2. Captures 3. Threats 4. Active moves Do this for you AND for your opponent. Normally one is taught to do this when solving tactics. But too many masters forget to tell you that you ALWAYS must do this, in every game! The cool thing about this is that it will give you ideas even if there's nothing tactical going on. You'll be slower in the beginning and it will be tiresome, but soon enough you'll be fast at this basic evaluation. I'm 1760 nationally rated. Take it or leave it, but pretty confident that mr. Banzea would agree with this method. It's the only thing most lower rated club players (at blunder level and a little above it) need - and it has top priority.

You’re the best in the business by far. Thank you
By far these high elo games are the most instructive. Great content and presentation. Thanks
"brother eww" and "bang bros bus" 😂 thanks for being instructive and funny
You could tell he was a little embarrassed after saying that last one 🤣
@@irjake Lol! I would be also!

Can’t wait for your Jabova London course! I finally made it to 1500 rapid because of you. You are the best chess teacher on RUclips! Thank you!
Yayyy, a new video to analyze during the weekend
Thanks!

Today i was playing amatour chess tournament , I was playing Jobava London, Caro Kann and Kings Indian once, funny enough my oponents fell for the Jobava London trap that Alex has teachen me 😅 Love ya ♟️🐐
Taught*

Pawnstorm? XD
Teachen you up real good!!! Ftw! Congrats. Wish I was multilingual.
i was doing ok in the caro kann with what i learnt from his videos but after buying his course im killing it couldn’t be happier and by the way i have the caro kann course made by a very famous IM / streamer and another from a good IM who also stream and i can say confidently Alex’s is the best

Thumb up and this is how I like to start my weekend. Thank You, Alex, for making those amazing vids! 👍
Would love an entire jobava video exploring different king side attacks when blacks light squared bishop is locked in by e6. I’ve been experimenting with a lot of different variants in that position and it’s been becoming one of my favorite variations

Nimzovici is goated, but talks too much like a scientist sometimes. It's illegal to read his books without wearing a suit!
Thanks for the free course your the real GOAT
Get Alex's courses guys, I'm loving learning them!
Thanks to your videos about Caro Kann and Slav. Yesterday I won two games rated 96 and 97 against 1700 players !
Won two games against 1700 players, that's 3400 games of chess you played in a single day, impressive!!
@schumifan78 1700 elo...
1. New Banzea
2. Christmas
3. Thanksgiving
4. New Years
......
I love chess because of your instructional videos! The count has enthralled me!
Didn't watch yet clicked instantly great concept keep it up
Played my first Rapid chess game against a guy from India, he was good and beat him with the Jobava. In the end sacriced 2 rooks to promote pawn to a Q and # .. Love the Jomama !! Alex
These thumbnails just keep getting better and better 😂
Always love to follow your thoughts on those games! Love it! That's why I am a subscriber... if he moves there, black has already lost... Simply love it, ahahah
spilled the beans in the end
Hey Alex, I've been following you for at least 2 years and I've always loved your content so much.

Did you really end the video with some sort of advertisement? Wasn't expecting that. 😅😆🤣 Love your videos, Thank you!
It would be nice to see Alex add a defense for 1.d4 (1.Nf3, 1.c4 too!) WIth the Caro-Kann as our e4 defense, the Slav would seem logical, but I just hate the exchange variation. I grow tired of the King's Indian, and white is a bit better in the Fianchetto and Bayonet. Any help coming Alex?
Thank you Alex for the middle game ideas.👍
LoL. The Bang Bros Bus. Alex is such a joker 😅
got into the WHAT bus at the end??? JHHADJHASHHA
Nice to see an aging master can still authentically enjoy finding the nice tactic in the first game.
I love your videos and try to follow your example when I play. Could you please do a video of you against an aggressive pawn player that pushes all their pawns? For some reason this gives me trouble. Thank you and keep up the great work.
That last mate was criminal
Your bishop is like your mind, activate and awaken it! 🤯
Learning a lot from you❤.
He played the bang bros bus gambit
When is your Jobava course coming out? Will there be a way to practice variations? Thanks
q2 2025 realistic estimation. Yes there will be!
Oh my Jobaba last mate was beautiful❤😋
Do you think the jobava course will be out before Christmas?
sadly no, but I will probably start uploading more!
@ are you having any beta testers for the course?
yess, a new banzea video!
Christmas come early.
Hey Alex! How much would it cost to analyze one of my tournament games (jobava london as white) on video?
You doin oky Alex? You sound lil sick. Hope you feel better if you are.
Lots of love🫶🫶
Hey Alex, huge fan of your videos here. I love your stuff but my opponents never play like this. What can I do? 150 rating btw.
Already bought the Caro. When will Jobava be ready? Time to give back.
Can you make a video about Greek gift?
These types of videos reminds me that alex banzea is really an IM
Pure goodness.
Like your videos keep it up.
Also sometimes people do watch to the end, but yt says they didn't.
Is Jobava course coming in 2025? I want to buy your 2022 London course on chessable because of their Black Friday deal. But if the Jobava course is about to drop, I'd rather wait for that. I just have no idea when it's coming. Thanks for your hard work!
2025 surely, perhaps q2 is realistic estimation. I recommend waiting, thank you sir it will be worth it!
Thanks Alex. Will do. Can’t wait!
Hey Alex, what would you say who is the greatest expert in the Jobava London (after you ofc)? Is it Hans?
tough to say, Erigaisi/Alekseenko would be my choice (with Alekseenko having more games)
Show us your brilliant moves😅
In game one why can’t you play e5 after d4
Lessgo Boyz ❤ another 30+ minutes free content 😇💋
The last game is actually the Barry Attack.
Wow! Someone from Romania knows about Black Friday.
i went from 800 elo blitz to 1200 in 2 months from Alex.
I just realize, you kind of troll your oponents, they dont resign, because you are so low on time, they hope you lost on time😁
it's quite smart, most people resign if they're down a clean piece unless the opponent is low on time, which wouldn't make for good content haha
Never resign. I've had people stalemate up a queen, or run to the bathroom and not make it back and flag... that happened OTB once. The one on our floor was locked, they went down to the 2nd floor, locked, then the 1st floor, locked, and only then did they take the slow elevator to the 4th floor which was unlocked, but they were 5 minutes late.

ChessMasterTrolling on yet another smurf run!
What if opponent plays c5 against d4 ? It throws me off
omg more chill guy memes yaaaaas
On move 10, can we play e5 for the Queen trap or is it bad if opponent knows it ?
yes, but it's a bit too concrete for my liking
do hippo guide ngga
25:23 Play English Attack, it's a free win! Thanks for the free win! Qd2 vs g6 looks like a theme....?
One day I wish to marry my daughter off to someone who Kann-Carro like that. If only I had a daughter, or believed in the institution of marriage.

👍🏻
😀
Currently I'm around 1300 in rapid and my biggest problem is that I'm mostly ahead after the opening and when the opponent doesnt make any obvious mistake I don't really know what to do. Anybody else with this problem?
That second player 2150 getting absolutely thrashed and simply won’t resign. Yawn what a disrespectful clown.
GOAT
C'mon bro a little consistency won't hurt ...can't get by without our favourite teacher's chess lessons..
Tried this pirc setup and won in 18 moves
My fav
newbie here, from 400 to 1400 in 2 days, thnx alex

It's criminal how good this guy is at what he does
7.45 AM Watching
Can you start over at like 1000elo 😂

Happy thanksgiving fellow early bird degenerates 🦃
Amazeballs! Joe Biden London strikes again. When u said u saw a RUclips comment where someone challenged your Jobava Vs his Pirc, I’m not sure what you meant, maybe.. was it him? Anyway, not sure
Watching this at 01:45 am after meeting a girl, because men of culture don’t need sleep
How the fuck does a mad comment have zero acknowledgment but the most lame repetitive dribble will get a hard to fathom amount of attention?!? Sorry, oh cos we’re dumb as fuck!
You win because you are a cm , even we got good opening position we can't win we r not like u
I think I am one of those fans who overestimate the power of e4 😂
You think you can out-jobava Baadur at this point?
you gotta let me know before you go making these videos. No call , no text , no nothing.. lol😅😅..
