Good morning Boris. Thank you for the excellent clip. I can let you know that Adhiban recommends (after 1 b3 e5 2 Bb2 Nc6 3 c4 d5 4 cxd5 Qxd5 5 Nc3 Qe6) 6 Rc1. There is only online given in his course and it is around 800 lines or so. It is always exciting to see a new opening pgn from you. Do you have anything coming up for White please? Thank you. :0)
hello Avrukh! my name is Lukas and I am a 2000 fide rated chess player and my dream is to become top player, I understand that these dreams are quite delusional but since I really want to achieve it I will belive this delusion regardless, Now my question to you is since you are a strong Grandmaster what did it take for you to go from Candidate master strength to Grandmaster? Thanks for your videos and I am wishing you all the best.
Hi Lukas, everything is possible if you are working hard and the most important efficient. The best way to hire a good coach. In case you cannot afford this, try at least to request evaluation lesson with coach, so he can over your games, see your weaknesses and offer study plan targeting your problematic areas.
Hi, I am really curious how you were reach that level. Would you mind sharing some tips or advice on the strategies and training that helped you improve? I'd really appreciate any insights you can offer.
Hello Sir I will give you the best advice I can give, First of all I consider myself as quite talented so I have luck on my side in that sense, I also have a big passion for chess and that is probably the most important feature of all. As for the training I did I didn't really do any training until I was around 1700 strength except for chesscom puzzles, researching basic stuff like openings and endgames on youtube and a lot of playing rapid and blitz (Rapid is better for improvement but blitz is good when you want to have fun), but when I was around 1700 strength in fide terms is when I started reading books, The first book I read was a theoretical endgame book I borrowed from the library (it was a book by Tony Kosten) the book is not the best endgame book ever but it covers theoretical endgames so that never hurts to read, I also read the book My System by Aron Nimzowitsch and I highly recommend this book for learning strategic and positional chess, if you decide to read it please take your time while going through every single game he includes in his book and do it with a physical board no matter how good your visualization skills are, I say that because the example games he uses are like pieces of Gold in instructive chess terms, I also watched a lot of video lectures on chesscom and created my own opening repertoire with the help of lichess engine and created my own chessable course for myself just so that I can train my moves through repetition, and that basically concludes how I got to my strength in chess and to be honest when I am reading my own comment to make sure it's as good as possible I understand that it might seem underwhelming because the methods I mentioned were very limited but what you should understand is that I did what I said in my comment A LOT so It wasn't just 1 day of reading and 1 day of researching endgames and 1 day of puzzles. No it was many many days of doing this over and over again mixed with a lot of playing. so my conclusion to you is play a lot of chess especially rapid, solve as many chess puzzles as possible, watch lectures here on youtube or chesscom from respectable players, study endgames especially basic theoretical endgames, read My System by Aron Nimzowitsch for positional and strateigc understanding, watch a lot of Grandmaster games and don't forget to have passion for chess😊. I hope my comment helps👍
I love that ...Nge7 line and have been playing it for a while. The problem I face is that some players defer b3 for a move by starting with 1.Nf3 and only b3 on the second move. Really annoying when you had something planned that involves ...e5!
