    I love that there are so many episodes on Yasser. We get more Ben stories about their lovely friendship

    Yasser is the honorary soft spoken Grandpa of the entire chess community.

      The first game gave me much information on pawn strategy. Thank you.

    I remember a Torre e Cavallo issue (an italian chess magazine) from 1996 about the Amsterdam game between Garry and Yasser ... the commentator couldn't even believe that the sacrifice was correct (exchange and pawn)! Simply justified by Qg3! Incredible stuff... :D

    Great lecture, Ben. I enjoy all your videos and really liked this Yasser series.

      Agreed. And also the 2nd time I've heard Ben explain triangulation better than anyone else.

    Watched the first game so far. When you see Kasparov's endgame technique in his prime, finding such subtle only moves, I have to believe he's the greatest ever. Although Fischer wasn't bad either. Nor Morphy.

    I'm a simple man, I see a video where someone might be telling stories with or about Yasser and I watch the video immediately.

    Kind of annoying to change the initial position after 10mins of lecturing...

    With this format Ben, you create your very best videos. There are very few clunkers in your entire collection, but in this style...none. Thank you! p.s. I dearly hope you find your Messiah...and him right quickly. The greatest danger after those born again are taken out of the earth, is deception...so be very careful that you're not fooled because virtually everyone will be deceived.
