very cute kids and Ben handled them very well. good teacher! But Ben, when the girl suggested the Nimzo-Indian were called Ruy Lopez, she actually thought correctly in some sense. see, in the ruy lopez you get your king's knight out and push your e pawn, afterwards u pin the opponents knight with your king's bishop. so it was kinda a reversed ruy lopezish opening idea. gotta give her some credit for that ;)
+popemobile15 That sounds like something Ben would say. "My opponent called out mate in 2 ...very suspicious *Looks up and rolls his eyes* but I stopped it so it wasn't mate in two... terrible..."
GM Feingold, It is good to hear the children laughing and excited about chess. You are part of a wonderful program in St. Louis!
"Wait, you're a vegetarian?"
"Who said that? That's the first right thing you said this class. Good job."
"It's like the Dragon because it's being played on a chessboard" OH man, Ben stop it, you're killing me.
"you guys are liked rated 800 at eating pizza and I'm rated 2700, BAM!" classic Finegold!
"That's like betting on Seattle!" Hindsight is 20/20 now! Great lecture. Ben is the best.
"I read it once and I got a good nap"
Lol
one of the best teachers ive seen ever
1:38 "That move doesn't smell very good because it's NH4" hahaha oh man Finegold's hilarious.
"which way did I take, with the queen or the bishop?"
(literally all the kids) "bishop!!!"

Finegold's immortal! :P
I want to grow up to be Ben Finegold, :D
Better start eating pizza. Oh snap!
I take you. You take me....
He's the worst player of history
"Alright, who gets the prize for the quietest? It won't be the Broncos fans, OH!" lol
Awesome Ben-isms. Difficult tactics explained so nicely that they look cool rather than complex!
You have great patience, Ben.
4:19 queen takes exclam!
Thanks uploader, thanks Ben!

One minute in and I'm already like "AAhhhh Ben I love you so much you're so funny!"

Incredible game, Ben! I bet you felt like Tal.

This guy is so Swaggy

The kids are annoying.
If those cheerful attentive kids annoy you, you don't know many kids.
