    Learning how openings transition to different ones is a good way to learn principles instead of memorizing lines. Good update.

    We need your Sicilian course, it is obvious how in love with this opening you are (hence I was suprised by 1… e5 in the course)

    • @gmpillo604

      Sure, we need a Sicilian and another principled defense against 1.d4 for sure!

    Definitely gonna try. That is, when my opponent plays the mainline instead of anti Sicilians, which seem to be more popular at the intermediate level lately.

    Great video coach, I am a Kan player and this really helps to plan against f4-f5 attacks. Thanks heaps !

    Really interesting stuff. I was already looking for a new sicilian setup for my repertoir. I tried the classical Nc6, but the Richter-Rauzer structures are not for everyone. I will check out the Kan.
    With White I usually go for a Maroczy Bind against it. Well, only if I don't go for the KIA earlier. Never played black against the Maroczy Bind, so I guess, I woukd need to look into that as well. At least I'm already familiar with the KIA from both sides, since I also play the French quite a lot.
    Thanks for the inspiration!

    I've played the Kan as my main weapon against 1. e4 for over a year now. I've never seen this idea before. I'm usually pretty reluctant to play ...g6, since I've only seen it used for that slow Be7-f8-g7 reroute. Playing ...e5 never seems to give me anything as good as the d5-square that my opponent gets. It's cool to see how both moves can come together for such a harmonious position, so thx for sharing!

    • @ChessCoachAndras
      @ChessCoachAndras  Рік тому +1

      The pleasure is mine. Btw, after g6, the e6-e5 push becomes a plan too since White no longer has Nf5!

    Great content as usual Andras, Kan is my go to but on a couple of occasions I’ve been done by White castling Q-side and sacking on b5 getting 3 pawns for a piece, computer says equal but I think it’s easier to play as White. Cheers man

    • @ChessCoachAndras
      @ChessCoachAndras  Рік тому

      yea, that is a motif you need to look out for. Usually White should get into some sort of trouble though before they could sac!

    Hey there, algo! This was - as usual - a great and insightful video, so I'd think other people might also be interested in seeing this! On-topic: These computer lines are absolutely insane! Geez.. But nice game nonetheless :)

  • @zenondecitio8539
    @zenondecitio8539 Рік тому +1

    I liked a lot the video.
    But this plan with g6,h5 only works against white's f4 king side attack, isn't it?

    • @ChessCoachAndras
      @ChessCoachAndras  Рік тому +1

      If white opts to not play with c4 (maroczy bind) playing f4 is almost obligatory. Otherwise white has no plan.

    Wow I JUST started branching out from the Dragon to the Kan - guess what my favourite internet coach posted :)!

    Fantastic lesson for me as a Kan player. I feel like Bd2 is always an improvement over Be3 in these structures, especially since it's out of the way of the rook on e1 and allows for the bizarre b4!? idea to prevent Nc5 and avoid black's minority attack. Does g6+h5 still work against the d2 bishop?

    • @ChessCoachAndras
      @ChessCoachAndras  Рік тому +2

      It does, but Black needs to be a lot more vigilant about the e4-e5 break.
