Whenever somebody says “don’t play this opening” for whatever reason, don’t listen to them and study whatever you want. Chess is a game and games are supposed to be fun, learn what’s fun for you to learn and you’ll have a good time
@@jermarcusgreen5549 your personal experience doesn't make me wrong, it just shows you are playing at a lower level and likely are stronger with tactics than those you are playing. Sicilian is the sharpest, most theoretical opening, especially the Najdorf or dragon variations. Someone who has studied against the Sicilian can really punish moves that don't even look like mistakes. As you progress in Elo you will have to change openings or learn the vast number of lines to continue to progress. You just are at a level where openings aren't as important as fundamentals, avoiding blunders, and tactics.
@@matthewklahn3204 You said that Sicilian shouldn't be played because of its complexity, but there are many chess experts who think differently. Sure, Sicilian is complex, especially the Najdorf, but the sooner you begin playing them the better you will get. That is what GM Naroditsky is preaching and I see a lot of truth in it. Additionally, you will have opponents who won't be experts in tackling Scilians as well which evens out the lack of theory. Ideally you should play an opening you fully understand, but that is rarely the case if you are under 2000 Elo. Often times you have to play an opening over years till you fully grasp the concepts. You see, the argument that someone shouldn't play a certain opening because of its complexity is a fairly weak one. Far more important is that the opening is fun to play because that way you will be invested in the position and are more likely to invest time analyzing the games and learning theory.
The ICBM gambit, also called the Tennison gambit can also played from the following openings: - Scandinavian Defense - Retí Opening - Budapest Gambit (Reverse ICBM gambit)- commonly played by Black but White can also perform it
QGA isn’t bad lol I would have also preferred grouping certain openings (for example grouping french lines together) since it would be easier to follow. I liked most of the descriptions though, keep it up
Lower elo they mean is below 1000. They better study easier openings like king defense and London. The reason they didn't recommend it is because most of the hard opening requires to play precisely as beginners have low accuracy when playing chess so it depends on skill to play. Kind of like playing hard characters in a game.
5:26 To those who didn't understood the play, after black takes the pawn, white moves Queen to A4 and it's checkmate. If you don't want to fall to this or any similar gambit, NEVER move the pawns on the diagonals of the King until midgame or endgame
The Dragon's advantage is that it has a very clear plan: Control d4 and the dark squares. But honestly play the Sicilian you like the most. I started playing Najdorf when I was 1600 and did not understand shit, but after years of playing I understand more and more. The sooner you begin the better. Most importantly is that it is fun, that way you will stay motivated play and learning chess.

Sometimes you should listen because if you learn real bad openings it will not be fun seeing your elo vanish
Yeah some openings really shouldn't be played by the vast majority of players because they are so complex like any Sicilian
@@matthewklahn3204 wrong, I don't study much but have most my success with the sicilian

Technically, the Tennison Gambit and its ICBM variation are separate.
Where Vienna?
Do you know how many openings there are? It's impossible to put them all into one video. They've made other opening videos. Go watch them.
Vienna is more popular and significant than danish gambit or sodium attack.
@@greyoga129 And where in the title did you see "most popular and significant openings" Like I said, they've made other videos. Go watch them.
Vienna is in Austria bro
Vienna is a gambit?
Me a 17 year old newbie to chess: 'okay lots of work, let's just close the video'.
Bro hats off to the script writer 😂😂😂😂😂😂. Fucking loved it ❤
1:35 And there goes the wife.

Okay so
Its better to play moves as I wish than learning this opening

Am I the only one who is reeling from Austria-Hungary representing the Slav?
I like playing Nimzowitch-Larsen!
Yea bud please stop playing it's op
@@michalisfilippakis4788 honestly did anyone asked for your opinion?
I've always considered it the Queen's Fianchetto, but I like fianchetti, so it works.
Where Gambit Sandomierski?
I can't watch this with a straight face, I keep laughing and forgetting the actual openings. I only learned the knight one, whatever that was called
Reti is the opening I played for years and today I realized that it’s meant to Segway
Comedy+chess= indefinite fun
There's no such thing as boring opening. The only reason you would call it boring is because you lost playing against it.
8:06 Bro knew what he was doing by putting a map of Austro-Hungary
Where is the cow? I need more cow.
Local butcher
Actually, The Cow opening is a new opening created by rising chess starlet Anna Cramling from Sweden. Check her vids out, she's awesome!!
Hahhahahhaaaaaahahahahaha
If you want a cow, I have a cow. Take it on your mouth.
I’ll have one medium rare please
The "Intercontinental ballistic missile"

@@reformed_attempt_1look at this edgy ahh boy.
Bro lied about Caro Kann, I got mate in 16
Excellent more more more…❤
So there is a name for reeking havoc with the knight in the opening. I freaking love it.
My friend keeps trying scholars mate and fails so bad each time 😭
You should not say every in your title..there are millions of openings that could take this hours or weeks to finish
Didn't even know I have been playing Ruy Lopez opening for years lol
😂fair enough 3:50
i'm starting to love chess but i don't understand a single thing, it makes me feel so stupid but i'm happy

Fantasy Variation 🪄 🧙🏻♂️ (variation of #22 caro kann)
perfect video for my friend thank you!
how didn't *Stafford-Gambit* not mentioned? ^v^
It's a variation in Petrov Defence or Russian Defence
reti opening has the icbm gambit (but if that gambit does not work you are cooked, you wont know what to do)
He’s gate keeping to the lower elos saying to not play them because we’ll loose even though they’re definitely the best and easiest openings
Lower elo they mean is below 1000. They better study easier openings like king defense and London. The reason they didn't recommend it is because most of the hard opening requires to play precisely as beginners have low accuracy when playing chess so it depends on skill to play. Kind of like playing hard characters in a game.
Also how easiest is it when you need to study all your opponents respond like najorf and ruy lopez. There are reasons why they didn't recommend.

Hikaru Nakamura ❌

Hikura really he said hikura
In middle school I played the reti opening often.
I liked knight openings in middle school
Reti is very flexible
there is a counter for the "strong" caro-kann and its called alien gambit by witty alien
Nc3 (Van geet) is great for confusion
Забыли про "Платину бобра" все эти дебюты можете найти в книге "21 критическая ошибка игроков в шахматах"
You failed to mention alien gambit and Martian gambit
not real gambit
0:07 is it golgappe??
Yea
ah yes the only position i can win with: 5:29
At 11:06 you showed a transposition to the kings indian. Its only a pirc, if white doesnt play c4.
9:48 how can I go from caveman misshapen head guy to cool flat top and glasses intermediate player guy? So cool! I envy him
My 13yrs old friend spam indian every game and he always win
Italian is my go to for white as it allows me to short castle
For black i usually play caro kann
i lol'd too many times to count
What if I’m 800 elo and use the Sicilian defense and still win with it
And the Sicilian Dragon
Personally if youre gonna play the sicillian as a low elo player, play the dragon honestly, its probably the easiest.
Let's be real you only play it bc it has a cool name
The Dragon's advantage is that it has a very clear plan: Control d4 and the dark squares. But honestly play the Sicilian you like the most. I started playing Najdorf when I was 1600 and did not understand shit, but after years of playing I understand more and more. The sooner you begin the better.
