Featured is the round 5 blitz game between Magnus Carlsen and Kirill Shevchenko from the 2023 Superbet Rapid & Blitz Poland (2/5). The opening is a Sicilian Defense, Accelerated Dragon, with Carlsen opting for 7. Nb3 instead of the more popular Bc4. White's strategy for defeating the Sicilian Dragon is maybe best understood by Bobby Fischer's quote: “Pry open the h-file, sac, sac ... mate!”. Whether facing the Sicilian Dragon or playing it, you will find useful notes for both colors in this 25-move model game, where Carlsen did not need to sacrifice anything substantial on his path to victory.

Hi Jerry, it's everyone! Your analysis videos during the Carlsen Karjakin WCC are what got me into chess. Thanks for all these regular uploads, it's the best chess content on RU-vid!

Nice to read you recently got into the game, and thanks. 😎👍

Bro this streak of analysis videos is AMAZING and i will watch EVERY SINGLE ONE

@dodekaedius Год назад

5min game and no weak move, 98% accuracy. What a professional

@Adri12_pl Год назад

I'm addicted to your videos man! Since Magnus - Fabi WC I literally watched every single one of your vid. Your passion, preparation, deep analysis of the games with all the interesting variations is just unmatched ❤ Simply awesome. Remember that there is always 1 viewer when he sees new ChessNetwork vid he is eating breakfast and enjoying your commentary 😂 Keep up the good work and TAKE CARE! ❤ Much love from Poland.

Jerry I enjoy how you aren't super critical of the players when they're in a 5 minute blitz game. Realistically even top level players will not consistently find the top move, your analysis is fair and even handed. It keeps it real and relatable.

Lots of appreciation and thanks for all the lessons over the years. It's fantastic to have calm and thoughtful instruction. You could bump your channels numbers by talking faster and screaming about the rooooook, but i have a huge amount of respect that you've chosen to stay aligned with your values. I also have a huge respect for Gotham, that wasn't meant as a dig.) Do you have any content that drills down on strategic basics? I can't think of anyone better to explain concepts like "the square" or "philidor's position", or "opposition." I know I've seen them come up in your analyses, but I'm not sure I've seen them addressed in their own videos. Anyway, time to throw in the towel on this comment.

@davesmith5656 Год назад

I haven't gotten any return comments nor feedback on comments here, about how I'm beginning to understand the "middle game", but I'll keep commenting about how good these videos are. This one, at about the 9:00 minute mark, somehow clarified the "time" aspect of the game for me. Not perfectly clear of course, or I'd be pushing above 2400 (I guess), but I understood another piece of the puzzle. Thanks, Jerry (whoever you are😀), I'm learning!

Thank you Dave. 😎 Nice to read you’re picking some things up.👍

@Dyonysus777 Год назад

Great calm voice and nice explanation. Thanks, I subscribed. Interesting, the amount of sacrifices and not just taking the rook as most would have done in a hurry, I guess. Well at this level one sticks with the mate plan of course.

@chrisnjay4014 Год назад

You are amazing dude. Love watching your videos

@robdubent Год назад

Great explanation of the opening. I know the dragons, but I can appreciate you taking the time and not glossing over the REASONS for the moves and strategy for those of us that think openings are just memorized…. Things are played for a reason. Don’t play an opening if you are uncomfortable or inexperienced with the resulting middlegame!! Big mistake by many players below 1700-1800 it seems

@sanitary103 Год назад

I noticed you're back to pumping out many more videos. did you take a break in the recent past due to burn out? just curious. everyone needs a break from time to time.

@JusTGamer7777 Год назад

Incredibly useful video! I got a decent bunch of worse positions as white thinking I am solid as f3 pawn defends e4 when d5! suddenly makes things difficult.

@ChessNetwork Год назад

Good to hear it 👍

@ALDA99999 Год назад

at 13:18 why is knight C4 not an option? seems like a decent move to take pressure off the black queenside by forcing the white queen off it’s tile or forcing the white bishop to sacrifice.

@DylanJayce Год назад

I love Mongoose Carlsbad games

@barthouweling4787 11 месяцев назад

If black castles on move 7, you recommend Qd2; but what about the thematic ..Ng4 then, going after the DSB? Be4?

@jackson32 Год назад

Nb3 and Bc4 are the most challenging continuations for white. If anything, Nb3 is even better as a common recommendation is to play in such a way that black gives up his prized fianchettoed bishop in order to ruin whites pawn structure on the kingside. Practice has shown that this is really not such a good idea, as white gets the two bishops and if he can consolidate has a small advantage.

@DealerLoot1 Год назад

What about Nc4 for black instead of Nc6?

@MoonBurn13 Год назад

In “sidelines”, I figured out …BR3, tho I saw no particular advantage in making that Bishop “bad” with the followup …PKN4 and so missed it. Similarly the counterattack beginning 16…NB6, 17. KBxN, PxB, did not seem to me to afford a “crushing”attack after 18. PB5. Why not again counterattack with 18…BxN, 19. PxP, BxRPch, 20. KxB, QB5ch with lots of possibilities…?

@ianbent0n Год назад

These opposite-side castle Sicilians are crazy difficult to understand. Everything hinges on tempo. And a successful attack often requires a lot of sacrifice, so knowing when it's sound vs. not is super hard.
