Yasser is a great coach and has great sense of humor i believe in the kings Indian attack he should play absolutely at 8 move the NF3 and if Nc7 simply can take the e6 squire from the knight with d5 it looks solid alternative line for me this variation still stands decently

Opening theory is so complicated these days. It is probably more useful to guide where to look for independent study and how to productively use a database for opening research. But maybe that wouldn't be appropriate for an "intermediate" class. To accurately answer a question about the Scotch Gambit, it helps to know you counter the Italian Game, as move orders and transpositions are crucial in constructing a repertoire with 1..e5. The 1.e4 e5 2.d4 discussion briefly touched upon this.
@magpie-nn5ob
@magpie-nn5ob 6 лет назад
I'd like to see AlphaZero's response to the Scotch and so many other e4-e5 lines. All we've currently seen are a couple of Berlin's with the black pieces so we know it likes 1. ....e5 after 1.e4. I think we'll see the most sound solid e4-e5 lines for black from this unbiased self taught program.

Knight g3, seem's to be a well suited answer to black's d4 (24th minute lecture time).
@spencermanchester2468
@spencermanchester2468 8 лет назад
26:06 instead of marching the H pawn all the way up the board, why not just h3 followed by g4? It accomplishes the same restriction of the knight on e7, and the pawn on e6 still encloses the bishop on c8, rendering capture of g4 an extremely bad move with any piece. The rook on h1 would have an open file to work with and the bishop on f1 can then come to g2 with pressure on the castled king, after having gained space, neutralized black's threats, and opened the position.

+Cleverconure I probably used Houdini 1.5 when I posted my comment. It gives about 0.21 advantage to Black with 26 depth. To compare with stockfish DD, it gives 0.78 advantage to Black with 32 depth (stockfish usually gives higher advantage in different positions I've experienced). But anyway, it is an interesting idea to use in a tournament game

It sounded like the first question was about the Scotch Gambit (4.Bc4 instead of 4.d4). 4...Bb4+!? was the reason for the decline of the Scotch...really?! I think 5.c3 Bc5 6.Nxc6 bxc6 7.Bd3 Qh4 is often considered the main line. A funny trend played by a few top professionals recently is 4...Bc5 5.Nxc6 bxc6!? 6.Bd3 Qh4 which makes for an interesting comparison. Oddly, this makes the point that c3 is often a useful move in the 4...Bc5 Scotch by which 4...Bb4+ attempts an improved version.
@JohnDoe-zq4nl
@JohnDoe-zq4nl 8 лет назад
at 43:53 why does white play d4 instead of d3 since the bishop is already being tied down to the defense of g2 temporarily? It seems to create an unnecessary weakness...it's counter-intuitive consider that the whole point in my opinion of playing the king's gambit is to have open lines and attacking chances, but in light of the line you highlight it might be a playable alternative?

The peculiar thing about chess is that we are trying to "solve" it, which will destroy it, unless chess 960 becomes the standard some day. We are trying to memorize our way to victory. When players talk about an opening causing problems for them, well it is supposed to. It's a battle,

@lollipophugo
@lollipophugo 9 лет назад
How to Play Chess I don't agree, I think our deep research of openings has only proven that early study of openings with computers was flawed, and most of the interesting novelties being unearthed today are found by humans and explored with computers, opening up new avenues and pathways that would never have been previously explored. Chess has always been about memory. Memory of theoretical endgames, memory of opening preparation, memory of tactical patterns and motifs, memory of structures and piece placement, chess is memory.
@THEGLORYRISING
@THEGLORYRISING 9 лет назад
lollipophugo One problem with your argument is the case of two people who have never played chess before. They sit and play the game with no prior knowledge whatsoever. The player with the quickest mind in this case will most often win. Now take this idea into a game between GM's. Imagine these same two players each have equal skill-sets based on your idea of memorization. The player who wins will most often be the one who also won their first game. My point here is that chess still requires a creativity and quick-mindedness that memorization will not conquer until chess has been solved. And chess is still a very long way from being solved.
@lollipophugo
@lollipophugo 9 лет назад
THEGLORYRISING two people who have never played chess before will play games littered with horrific blunders and the win goes to whoever blunders into mate or whichever player notices hanging pieces. I don't think there has ever been studies done related to whoever would win in this situation but "quickest mind" would also reinforce that the person who is able to assimilate errors and self correct the fastest would win. Creativity and quick mindedness is all very well but you aren't getting what I'm talking about with memorization. If I play a very unusual but good move in a game, there is an incredibly high chance that I have seen a similar move in an analogous position before (even if I can't consciously remember seeing the idea before). Whether this be an incredibly sharp sacrifice, or a subtle repositioning of a piece. The player who has absorbed the most patterns, ideas and chunks will have the largest library of tools. This is how a player develops "intuition", ie knowing which candidates to choose over others without really considering the others. GMs have been proven not to calculate more deeply than amateur players necessarily, but their calculation is more structured and they are able to prune their calculation trees more thoroughly (they can quickly identify where to cut off analysis of certain branches). This is all to do with memory. If you see a knight fork, it's because you know it. If you play for a lucena position, it's because you know it. Maybe a person will work these things out over the board, maybe they will chance upon the idea, but then no one would learn the endgame or study tactics because it is provable that doing these things, reinforcing these patterns, makes you a stronger player - more quickly able to recognise these patterns in a game with the clock ticking.
@lollipophugo
@lollipophugo 9 лет назад
My point is that memorization is not ruining the game of chess, it's been an integral part of chess from its inception and over the entire course of its evolution, and every generation has thought they were approaching some kind of "draw death" of chess because they'd somehow uncovered too much knowledge, and I am merely suggesting that our horizons in chess are constantly broadening and that we should not be so arrogant as to assume we know everything about the game or are ruining it somehow, just because we've done deep study of the opening.

5:40 sorry for my ignorance but I was wondering if Qe6+ would work or not?
@TheClassicWorld
@TheClassicWorld 8 лет назад
+Kim Julian Qe6 check after Nc3? But then Ne2 and if queen does not project pawn again, the knight can then take it, I think that's just a waste of a move, although, the check does stop him from castling, the move seems fine, but I think there is long term problems for black with Qe6. Going through it now on my chess editor to see. After Qe6, Qd1 to Qe2 would force a queen trade and maybe white is better thereafter. Yeah, I mean, if Qe6 and then Ne2, knight can take the hanging pawn no matter what, even if queen projects knight takes because the other knight is protecting the knight so the queen can not take back, black would be down pawn and have nothing on the board right, apart from queen haha. White stands much better if Qe6, from what I can see. :) (If that's what you meant).

@Athenian888 7 лет назад
GM Seirawan when suggesting the move 4. ..Bb4 neglected to say that the most popular white next move in this variation is 7.Nf5!? which forces Black in a rather passive position something similar to a Maroczy bind when white has very good control of the d5 square. So it seems to me he is a little unprepared opening wise in some of his lectures.

The Dardans I guess I'm the grammar police in this scenario, so I should at least continue with my job. " I was trying to be factical" 'Factical' is not a world. Then again, you weren't really trying to be anything, so perhaps that's consistent. "but facts work only with racional people.. " Never heard of that race of aliens. Unless you meant 'rational' people? "However there are two sides of my first answer.. Racional people would be cool with it, retards would make a troll out of themselfs trying to reply to it." You can't just accuse me of retardation when you have two elementary-school level errors 'racional', 'themselfs' in the same sentence lmfao
