This is what I need to see!!!!!!! I watched your Colle video not too long ago, and ever since then I’ve had a 68% win rate with it. I hate Bg4 so much so it’s good to see what you do here.
Thanks Robert for putting this up. The Colle is my White opening of choice, I have been practicing it against the bots. In analysis, the computer starts to show large advantages for White very early. If I can even get most of the setup and push e4, game review rates my play in this system around 1550 with 89% accuracy. This was surprising to me. All we need to do is stick with any of several plans in this system, it has a lot of great attacking ideas. I like it better than the basic London and it gives the Jobava a run for its money. It's great for us late beginners/early intermediate players around 900-1100. I'm looking forward to trying this out against people at various time controls, I think it will deliver nicely.
Good video to the point fast and clear. If you were a football coach your side would know what to do at half-time and put that into action easily. No messing here.
Useful lesson as always, I’ve been struggling with anti-Colle since you posted the Colle system lesson😂. Btw I can’t find the games you showed, how can I find them? Always thank you so much for the lessons❤
Thx for this I am actually playing this opening since you made the vid before this road me 1100 - 1500 and this vid is really important thx God bless:) 🙏
Hi, very good video, you explicate very much that we must to be focalized not in move sequences but in ideas. I see that you have missed the c6 black variation in place of e6 that you have well explained, can you give me a way to counter c6? Thank you a lot
But, before e4 I castle short and put the Rook on e1, in the basic setup this can cover the e4 push 3 times. The bots will attack without counting, and after some trades White should be a piece up. I think this will work well vs. people too, early intermediates may not always count the coverage either.
I really like the zukertort opening but what if black fianchetto his dark square bishop in 3rd or 4th moves after we play e3? Since we block our dark square bishop with the pawn, i generally have a problem in that kind of situation. And also our valuable bishop's target is closed in that way. What should be our response?
There's a whole chapter on this line in GM Axel Smith's excellent book 'e3 Poison'. Basically you forget about the Colle (or CZ) and play c4 and exchange on d5, pushing e4 if Black takes with the knight. As Nc3 has not been played yet, Black cannot exchange his d5 N on c3 a la Grunfeld and so has to retreat and that leads to Bl having a congestion of pieces. It's a good line for White.
I tried it and after a few games I got a checkmate in 10 moves against a 2200 player using these ideas. Also had a few nice games when they played c6 instead of e6 right away and after Qb3 they went Qb6 for the trade of queens
Why are you destroying the Bf5 Anti Colle with c4, of course it is the best move, but after c6 you are in the Slav and you can forgott all Colle ideas. I think the word destroying is not the right on, especyally when you play agaist a Slav player.
