Is it just me or his head is hypnotizing...

Your channel deserves so much more attention Josh! Your analysis is so much deeper and more nuanced than the other masters here on UA-cam, so thank you 🖤

great video thanks

The move Bishop to b5 is amazing! Is it called a skewer instead of a pin? I really appreciate the nice lines and games. This method is better than using arrows because it encourages deeper thinking, and visualization, even if it takes more time, it's worth it.

Awesome lesson. Learned a lot. Hope to see more videos from you.

I need to build my calculation muscles. I am rated 1500 USCF but feel that I’ve not developed good methodical skills. For example you said “count the material, you always start with that”. Admittedly, I don’t always do this. I was wondering if there is a good book that focuses primarily on the systematic approach to calculation. I remember reading Think Like a GM maybe 20 years ago but don’t want to revisit that one. Any good recommendations for this?

26:24 isn’t this still mate?? Rd3#

What a great video and an instructive one but when is the next video

I liked the advice at the end , min 28, to play a game and check if there is a technical shot every move for training

Nice, many thanks.

Very nice, thanks 💪🎉

Very informative, many thanks. Subscribed.

Great video! This channel is amazing!

Gg

Great content, probably the greatest in-depth analysis of top game we can find on youtube.

Thanks so much for all your chess tips!❤

Even u made it to GM title why cant i do it

At the puzzel around 19 minutes or so, I found nf7+ kg8 ne4+ kh8 ng6+, forcing the opening of the H file with hxg6 followed by the quiet re6 and rh6+ forcing white to give up the queen for the rook on h7 after the check. Leads to almost the same position as your (more elegant) solution. I found it by following your own brute force technique of constantly calculating the different knight checks :) Awesome video!

Amazing.....you are definitely a great teacher.

Since youtube in Russia now is getting from bad to worse I wish you Josh to be able to show your lessons not only on youtube but lets say on Twich-it is still legal in here at least temporarily))

Thank you from Russia, Perm!

Love the video. Great lessons and will wait for a similar one

Love your channel Josh.

Class

Most Underrated channel, Josh ❤

Very interesting video and topic!

I really love these episodes featuring recent games, showing just how rich all these GM tournaments are in terms of learning potential, even the draws

keep up, good work, very informative

Great Video

Whoa... this man is not simply an expert player. Actually a teacher! Thank you! I'm a beginner (lichess 1100) but with this lesson I finally think I understand tempo... and more specifically why almost every puzzle starts with a check :)

great video!!

Great Video

2nd example also c5 works, if you move the b-pawn i take the queen

You handle stuff you search in vain elsewhere, but important in chess practise. This kind of opening alertness was one of the non-mentioned strong points of Fischer.

Thanks! All of your stuff is gold!

Beside looking at checks, captures, forcing moves etc. I think it is also worth to do a kind of analysis of the tactical features in the position. In the first example there is the weak black backrank. There is a escape square on h7, but white has a bishop able to cover this square. Furthermore blacks rook und queen is on a diagonal of the same color as whites bishop. I the rook weren't there, Qa8 and Be4 would be straight forward.

Very instructive positions.

22:43 - be7 -- this leads to black defending the b pawn, or up 3-pawns (2 connected) for down-the-exchange.

There is a critical line I forgot to include in the video, and I see some of you are commenting on it. In the 2nd position, 1. c5 does look quite crushing, but Black has the incredible resource 1... Kd7! escaping to e8. Thanks for the comments, and I hope you continue to enjoy my videos!

Hi! Thank you very much for your very instructional video, GM Josh! Isn't c5 straightaway strong in the second position?

Appreciate the great GM tips as always!

Thanks for the video Josh. This is some really good learning material here!

Very good video - thanks Josh.

in second position i guessed c5. It looked crushing. But computer is playing crazy move Kd7 and it is 0.00

I bought your beginner chess course. Great course that has improved my chess thinking, especially how to spot threats and defend against them. I have one complaint, though. The speed with which you reveal the answers spoils the fun of self-learning. This annoyed me a lot about the course as I get the answers revealed with the message "time up" while I was still considering the options. Could you please change this feature of the course so that the answers are revealed only after the learner makes their choice, however long it takes them to do this? Thank you.

It’s not white to move and win lol

Huge fan of the channel, this type of content is a gem

Thank you. I would like to point out that, as an amateur, I usually have a plan... Sadly not necessarily a good one... I found your video very interesting.

I want to buy the course but it's no longer available for 30 box: what's the difference with and without video? Thank you.

Came here from Eric Rosen's channel, as he remembered this video and employed 19:50 as black, as discussed in a video today.
