@Enjoiosaur Might wanna correct that with ‘you’re stupid’ since you’re commenting on someone’s intelligence.
Ruy Lopez has been around for Centuries if it sucked so bad it wouldn’t be played
I agree with you? Did you mean to respond to someone else?
ya that chewy guy
Take time to look at this opening carefully. The middlegame can actually be quite good if you get used to it.
want to
Umm no. Wanna = slang. Good try though.
thank s a lot !!!
Love these videos!!!
1. copy and paste this
2. send this? to 9? other? videos
3. hold your breath for? 10 seconds
4. press refresh? twice
3. LOOK AT YOUR BACKGROUND! it? will be freaky!?
Thanks! I prefer a little more trickeration in my openings, but it’s good to have in my repertoire.
Good vids but you you speak to quietly
very helpful, much thx for posting!
what if player responds with pawn D7 to D6? should i still play bichop to B5?
blew my fucking eardrums out with that ridiculous opening music!
At around 6:14 in the video, after Bb3, what would be the best response to Na5?
Awesome chess tutorial, with good insight. Thank you for the great chess action.
In the exchange variation @2:51, why shouldn’t black take towards the center with the b7 pawn instead of taking with the d7 pawn, which would open the b-file for blacks queen-side rook and prepare for blacks d7 pawn to push towards the center?
Instead of white castling, is Ng5 an option ? It targets the black f pawn as well and I don’t really see how black prevents white taking it with his N and forking queen and rook.
ggggg
@jw542385 Actually there is. 6. Ng5 d5 (blocking bishop) 7. exd5 Nxd5 8.Bxd5 and queen has the option of taking either Bd5 or Ng5. I would probably take the bishop, as it was stated earlier that it’s white’s strongest minor piece, and also if 8. …Qxg5, 9.d3/d4 opening up the bishop to attack the queen (gaining a tempo) and then if queen doesn’t run to f6/g6, 10. Bxc6 (free knight if a6 b5 were pushed). If it does run to f6/g6, white can continue development or trade off and then develop.
@infiniteV115 That may look bad for black, but if 8…Qxd5, it’s pretty much even, and white must either castle or play N/Qf3 to prevent black from taking g2. Not a huge advantage for black, it’s about even at this point.
the sound is ridiculously loud

What if black plays f4 after Bd3? I think it’s very good move for black to play and it immediatly makes white has to react to this move in any fashion. If exff4 then e5 and white is in serious trouble, if De2 then De7 and you come up with a very good trap I’ve found for black.
Stop talking
