It wasn't t supposed to be class. Introductory, preliminary day it was. Not quite in the neighbourhood. I wasn't sure what to expect. GM Ben Finegold handles The Unexpected quite well, he has his rules of thumb' to stick with, f6 before you do f6? don't do it. Knight on d6? Say rawrr, or at least think it. Keep passing the open windows. A hotel needs a bear / a movie needs Rob Lowe. Like i was saying, this class was a voluntary preliminary day for chauffeur driving education. But it turned out we'd be doin' a lesson, with an instructor. This thing i-8 its name is, does o-60 mph in 4,5 secs. But this I found out afterwards, when I had returned home in my own car 10,7 s (but that's not important). I also found out afterwards they weren t insured, as per fine print (or it said so). So from 1700 to 1940, (until home / paperwork read) I was sorta grumped this instructor, I been driving like granny in potent car because of him, not enjoyable. From 1941 2330 I was uninsured & that stuff costs 550 gran. Now i have to be happy, but lingering is the sad feeling, in the amygdala. But i also feel betrayed, and ambushed, also its navi is useless, but this is off topic. Thus followed..an unusual night. ..22-4-24
Those knights were all totally normal. Except for one thing.
They were not

Love these lectures!
22:51 "D2" fxking cracked me up 😂😂
“He checkmated me on the back row if you know what I mean” 😮
Can’t believe these lectures are free. Plus tax (no tax)
Does anybody know if there is a video of Ben talking about why a person should or should not play chess? Any year is ok.
Do you mean professionally or what?
24:30 pretty sure he's referencing Dwight from The Office
The Tiger from Madras
I wish I lived in Georgia so I could lose to a grandmaster!
Knight on the rim… better for him
looks good, does nothing, what a great filthy joke
