These types of videos are insightful, this is due to the fact that they don't teach you an opening explicitly, however, the ideas and concepts provided are derived from well openings. My favorite idea of yours of all time is the golden trio : how can attack opponent' half? Take is a mistake and offense is the best defense. Thanks a lot, GM Igor!
I guess you are talking about the "Alfil" (elephant) which kinda was the bishop 1000 years ago, so you are completely right. Thanksa lot for your great videos, always interesting and instructive!
just found this guy, very good style. very informative tidbits that help me more than line after line of opening theory. funny thing is i see these motifs in most of the openings i play. e4, caro, french etc
@@Palimoe90 it's a positional opening and I can sometimes get a Queen side attack. That's why I enjoy playing it. In some variations you can get a kingside attack.
I've just started playing chess again, so perhaps I'm missing something, but at 2'26" in the video, after white plays QB3, isn't the best move for black then QE2? This guards against white's bishop checkmate sequence, and if white then takes black's pawn by QB7, black can respond with QB4, check, simultaneously threatening white's queen on B7. White can trade queens, (losing its own queen to black's dark square bishop guarding black's queen) but this ends the sequence with white only a pawn ahead, rather than the disastrous scenario for black described as inevitable in the video. Then again, maybe I've missed a devastating countermove to this . . . Love these videos.
You lose a pawn, give black three pawn islands, and are much nearer an endgame after the Q trade where these two advantages can easily become decisive....Qe2 is a better defense though.
Yeah I believe most models put a bishop around 3.25, but that can fluctuate depending on the game. Sometimes a knight is better. However, some people just love trading out their bishops for knights. I use to see it much more on the lower elo range. Now at mid range not as much.
In indonesiang language bishop is gajah which means elephant. Queen is sometimes called menteri which means minister. Knight is called kuda which means horse 😁

Why not take black queen with queen - and give a check. Knight has to take white queen, then bishop takes knight and gives check, then bishop takes rook. This probably gives white an even greater advantage.
The Summary is:Never pin a knight in the Philidor as Black otherwise White will have an open position. It happened to me as White in Daily.I was crushing my opponent.
A knight is much stronger in end game. If you're up a pawn and have a knight, and all your opponent has is a bishop, then it's a really easy win for you. Now if you both have bishops or he has a knight, then you're pretty much screwed.
@@yzfool6639 there can be 5 other pawns on the board, which you need to get rid of. Would you rather do it with a crippled bishop or a knight that can go anywhere and over anything?
In hindi the modern chess pieces are called as under: Rook: 'Hathi' which means elephant Knight: 'Ghoda' which means horse Bishop: 'Ount' which means camel Queen: Either 'Rani' or 'Wazir' which mean queen or minister respectively King: 'Raja' or 'Bajshah' which means king Pawn: 'Pyada' or 'Paidal' which means an infantry soldier.
you are correct but also wrong. The modern names in India denote as you say but the historical names coming from Chaturanga (Chess' precursor) it was Elephant/Bishop, Horse/Knight, Chariot/Rook. Chaturanga is a different game but I don't think Chess would exist as it is if not for it.
For someone who is making his living speaking on videos, your vocal mannerisms need improvement. Stop mumbling! Slow down your words, speak clearly! The object is to be understood, not to speak as fast as you can. Consciously make an effort to speak slowly. It will make people want to listen to you and watch your videos. When you mumble, it gives the listener the impression that what you are saying is not important enough to say. I'm a native American English speaker, I know how it sounds to Americans when people mumble. Listen to how news broadcasters in America speak; they do not mumble. Imitate them, they make their living just like you do, from being listened to.
