'This opening is free elo' | cheater: hold my beer 

There is no spoon.

Dont you think you should apologize to your first opponent for insinuate he was cheating? Use the reporting tool when you suspect. It may not seem like much to you, but it's really bad to have that kind of insinuation. Anyway, your teaching technique is excellent. I hope you continue with the excellent work. Congratulations on the content (except for the insinuations of cheating).

…except the wooden spoon!

With all due respect, if you harbor suspicions, it's more appropriate to report them privately rather than calling out a player publicly. Isn't an apology in order? What if your suspicions are unfounded? He's a person, and such accusations can be hurtful. Remember, with great power comes great responsibility. Use your influence wisely.

When you play so slow in the beginning you have to rush in the end and doesn't play the strongest moves. So it kinda defeat the purpose of the lesson to an extent

😂😂😂😂

Knights and bishops move backwards with the purchase of premium.

Yea but then he said, he'd make a waiting move and pushed b7-b5... that's a poor waiting move for the reason above. "Weaker players usually tend to make bad moves when they should wait." Well, b5 is just that. It's ok to do this against a weaker player but against a stronger gm or engine such a move could be a losing mistake. It may be good, but the justification for this has very subtle or have tactical reasons. Sometimes you even have to push pawns in front lof the own king to create a bind on a square complex. So beside giving some general advice and being the far stronger player I gain little infos from this. Yea having watched the game it really did backfire... but I reqlly didnt like this part. B5 is no freaking waiting move.

1200 is such a weird elo. Half of the people shit on the board and half of the people play perfect games. It makes it really hard to climb up at that rating range.

Yeah there's no way , I'M can even beat 1200s with sacrificing 1 of the pieces in the opening

i would say most lower level players are cheating. i've run a few of alex's games through the engine and they are just copying the engine moves most of the time

@@dagg310how they rated low then?

@@AustinMulkaMusic Because they're all cheating each other!

@@AirBornMedia or they get banned fast enough to never make it out of low ratings

While it would be cool that he went over that, I might recommend not getting too much into dependence on the opening till at least 1800. I am 2100 and can play this at my level with the information in this video alone. I only look at these for the possibility of getting more familiar with the Jobava side, but he might talk me into trying the Caro again. 😅 But heck. I didn't even know there was a Breyer variation in this system. 😳 what are the moves for that?

He always plays e5 and lining up bishop and queen to threat mate in 7

I'd like to be the first to sign that petition.

I couldn't understand what he said about that move: "...you're gonna be a dijun..."?

thats always good vs Bc4 line cause you can neutralize it with ...Be6 idea after Nc7. (I just stick with Bg4 vs all for beginners) as explained in the course I think?

@@AlexBanzea I think it is in "Tartakower 6.Bc4 & 7.Qe2+" variation and "Tartakower 6.Bc4 & 7.Ne2" where Knight goes to Ka6.

What? I don’t think that’s a legal move if Ng3 we can go h5 and have an easy attack going h4 and so on, you can analyse it for a deeper understanding if Nc3 we go Bf5 Nf3 e6 if h3 Bd6 and black is great if Bd3 Bd3 and they have to do Qxd3 because if they take with the pawn, you develop and you’re way better, after Qxd3 Nbd7 and you should know the common caro kann principles, and I like it for black If Nc3 Bf5 Nf3 e6 Bg5 Qb6 and you go for the knight, most likely they’ll do Bxf6 and you play the brilliant Qxb2 threatening to take the knight and know you’re up a pawn Now if Nc3 Bf5 Bc4, just go e6 and you’re good If Nc3 Bf5 Bd3, Bxd3 and now again they have to take with their queen, and it should be easy with e6 and developing queenside knight. There’s obviously more, but this is extremely simple and easy to understand

no such thing as dumb questions lol but the queen put him in check

countercheck not allowed

hikaru is a degen! haha

XD

Black king is in check.

hahhaa

yeah it worked haha

After rook B8, wouldn't queen c5 save it

I believe in a recent video he mentioned that the Jobava London course is now not going to be on Chessable, but some other platform. I like Chessable and wish it would be on there but that's what he said.

@@dgish2001 better if he uploads it on a platform like the other IM's chessly.

@captjuanco5766 I have some of Levy Rozman's courses on Chessly, but I haven't been on there in over a year. I see that they have made some changes and added some premium (for pay) features that look semi interesting. If you are a current regular Chessly user and use these new features, I'd love to hear you thoughts on that.

I played this positions for 8 years, analysed for ages and have a course on it? haha

lmao sometimes he even tells what the next 2-3 computer moves are and yet you are doubting him? hahaha

I believe he said that because he had analysed this position in his games before

you heard it but you don't understand the context. If you're a beginner you can actually do it too on the first few moves during a live game if you had studied your opening theory with the computer in the past.

You are 100% correct

i don't think he missed it cuz he was in check

he was in check you silly goose

He ran in too many Barney's.

seriously, free bishops. maybe playing 1500+ would be more illustrative. nothing was “highlighted.”
