    I learned about this video series at my local Wendy's washroom. Someone wrote on a stall: "For a good Taimanov, call GM Hambleton"

    This video is pure GOLD. I'm addicted to watching Aman play and coach me how to play these positions. I actually learn more things applicable to many other positions simultaneously. Hands down the best chess content out there!!

    These are so good. I've started playing this every e4 because of you. Never thought I'd be a Sicilian player, but you make this setup look easy.

    I’ll need to keep that Nc4 idea in mind.
    The setup is quite nice.. it’s really natural to get the same kinds of positions as these videos showcase.

    Okay, in your previous videos, when the opponent took your knight on C3, you captured with a pawn, but today you started capturing with your queen, creating a bishop-queen battery. I'm assuming that capturing with the queen is better at higher levels? I've reached a 1300 rating myself recently, so this video is perfect for me to learn about better organization.

    • @bubrub23
      @bubrub23 4 місяці тому

      If you can with queen it's better. Sometimes you haven't developed it yet 😢

    • @JohnWilliamShatner
      @JohnWilliamShatner 4 місяці тому +1

      From what I've seen it really has to do with the move order, not the level of his opponents. He has mentioned the battery idea since the beginning of the speedrun if I remember right.

    • @ccdj35
      @ccdj35 4 місяці тому

      @@JohnWilliamShatner Yeah you are probably right. I remember he said we always take with the pawn then challenge the center from d4 but this is probably when we cannot take with the queen.

    • @hugovaz777
      @hugovaz777 4 місяці тому

      Engine actually prefers pawn take but the evaluation is almost dead even. Also, that battery is nasty to deal with and more stressful on the human mind than taking with pawn.

      You must be new around these parts, Welcome Plebeian. You can happily find all of those openings in full playlists that both Aman and Eric have created over the past 4 years on this very channel... Gratis! Remember to drink water every day, breathe when you sleep, and don't play with ghoulies.
