I could not play black to save my life for the longest.. thank you kevin
ive watched some a lot of your videos.. and i almost prefer black now because of the sicilian.. lol
i always play sicilian defense
what if black plays e5 after the exchange on d4
nb3 is most common.
when did chess moves get cool names?
Thanks
@NRA4ever1399 before you were born. lol
It is hard to understand this because you are apperently the black peices and you are pretty much on th opposite side
the scholars mate is gone so famous now that even amateurs know it…
but if u tried it on a beginner he wudnt guess it ever
you can do the four move check mate if that is his move depending where it moves
It’s checkmate at the beggining
Pay attention to good notes: your voice is clear and you know what you´re talking about. keep teaching.
my favorite is dunst opening
i open with d4.c4, usually plays c4 still but not often…
Perhaps you should point out the main feature of the opening is the unbalanced characteristics of the pawn structure allowing for decisive games.
shut up and play!!!
How effective is Caro Cann as opposed to Sicilian Defence?
too many ‘ovbviouslys’. If it was obvious we wouldnt be watching – obviusly.
I hate when people show the Sicilian Defence with the white pieces on the bottom, and yes mic volume was way low.
i want to see the black point of view!!!
useless
