    Never been a better ad for a chessable course. This opening seems like the solution to the Sicilian for me.

    Great stuff again Simon! I like the Grand Prix for the very reasons you mentioned (I don't have the time to study a mountain of mainline theory), and will be adding this variation as I need to have options about which line to play badly!

    I've tried this 'British Grand Prix' but I'm too incompetent to make the King side attack work. Even when the engine says I'm crushing I still can't help but find the wrong move. Simon makes it look easy, of course!

    • @josketobben
      @josketobben 3 місяці тому

      Strikes in the center are awkward to deal with I find, when I even can't get to attacking

  • @MurrayHerts
    @MurrayHerts 3 місяці тому

    I've been learning the Dutch the past several months and as you say this type of attack felt very familiar, the only difference is I wouldn't have found the clever idea of forcing their king to f8 to make use of the pin and my attack falls apart

    Simon : When you've got no time to learn theory blablabla *makes us think this is really thought through*
    Then, proceeds to play the dutch with white.
    Me thinks : Ok so, you're a dutch addict ... why all the bullshit ? ( friendly laughs )
    One more time : I love it.
