    Best chess channel, the other chess channels don't play and show at the same time which is the best way to learn. They just go through a bunch of random scenarios while you explain what the point of the opening is showing a real example

      The problem with queen's gambit or any other gambit is we prepare repertoire that may or may not be happen. Coz we depend on the opponent take the gambit

    • @NdyRoo
      @NdyRoo Рік тому

      More transpositions and often harder to equalize against.
      Downside (also maybe a benefit) is you have to learn many more pawn structures and openings, and you’ll play a lot of very different middlegames.
