The Queen’s Gambit Declined is the most popular way to fight the attempt by white to give up (gambit) his c4 pawn. It has been played by top masters since the 19th century, and it will never lose popularity due to its solidity, flexibility, and the amount of different options it gives to black. In this video I have covered the Tartakower Defense, one of the most popular variations on the highest levels.
The Tartakower is a very complicated Defense. The main idea behind it (the move b6) is to be able to solve the “bishop issue” common for the QGD by fianchettoing the c8 bishop on b7. Ironically, though, that is very rarely achieved with great success, and white will either make sure black is stuck with a pawn on d5, hindering the bishop, or he will make black place the bishop to e6, making b6 an obsolete move.
But. Black forces white into a position different to what we usually see in the QGD. He accepts the potential weaknesses which could occur, most often hanging pawns on d5 and c5, but in exchange for that he gets active play.
The downside of the Tartakower is that white is the one who chooses the nature of the position. White can basically decide whether he wants a position with a static weakness and a dynamic advantage or vice versa. That means that the opening is not a good choice for players who are inexperienced and unable to adapt to different types of positions. Still, the same reason makes it one of the best choices when it comes to developing your chess skill!

I think that when you give an example after the theory, it helps to understand the plans behind the defense. Congratulations, one more excelent video.
Yes I would like the quick instructive games especially drawn ones so as to see ideas of both sides being correctly formulated
Thanks. The game example supports well the lecture. Keep it up!
Thanks for great video and yes really nice idea to have example game from the opening. Cheers.Looking forward for the next one. :-)
Very well explained and easy to follow the study. Thanks...
Hei Stjepan, I like the game at the end :) Very instructive
He likes his new microphoon so much he uploads twice!
:) :) :) :)
@@Spectatorica Are u his sister or at least related?
@@berndcotman4656 we are quite related :) I am his mother
Great VID and great commentary dude you know how hanging pawns play lol.
Great video Stjepan. Can you give link for the article you mentioned? or at least direct where we can find it again. thanks.
there is a secret line with g4 which i discovered when looking into databases which is fun to play
Can you show a Capablanca-Marshall Game for the Lasker defense?
Excellent analysis. I generally play this defense, with moderate success.
Love this opening! It’s so solid
14:48 instead of f5 the bishop is just hanging
These are great videos (hanging pawns) for Opening theory, but he keeps making these kind of mistakes (even in his other Lasker QGD)where he leaves his pieces hanging. He should be a little more careful; he's giving the impression that he doesn't know what he's doing.
Leon Spinks I don’t think he does tbh. It’s clear from his rating he can’t have much understanding across such a wide variety of openings
@@Robertl-xz6yl That seems a bit too harsh. It's easy to be tunnel visioned when preparing a video and missing something here or there. Regardless, looking past the ocasional mistake, these videos offer very good, informative content, which you can then supplement with a book on the specifics.
Very well explained including a famous game with the chess Legends Karpov vs Kasparov. I recently started to explore the Tartakower defense but winning is quite hard i think. Statistically, black wins 30.6% and white wins 35 or 36%. Do you have a video of the mighty Najdorf setup with A7-a6 variation. I find that opening very difficult for black pieces, because If you don't look out, then black's army will get blasted away xD. Keep up your vids and great work. Thnx for sharing, Cheers from Netherlands!
Thanks
Plz make a video about the budapest
2:43 Schrödinger's pawns, they can be anything you want them to be. You have to look at them though!
Instead of 7. b6 why not dxc4, after bishop recaptures then you play b6, sure you let white develop his bishop but it lets you also get a great bishop on b7 without having to worry about it being entombed.
I found this after putting stockfish destroy an engine with Black, it seems very aggressive
Could anyone recommend a good book or read of any kind on this system
Daniel King at Chess Base did a whole video on the Tartakower Defence. He’s an English Grandmaster an his videos are outstanding. Stepan of course does an outstanding job with his videos too. Hope that helps. Cheers from America!
Play b6 early and castle queen side 😁
Queen’s Indian and Dutch please
Wow you just go crazy when you realise you are behind schedule, 2 uploads back to back

Why can't you play b6 like a normal tartakower in the anti-tartakower?
Great video, I will now probably try Tartakower myself (being a Tarrasch player). Just one complaint: the way you pronounce "Tartak-ower" makes my ears bleed. It does not end with the same sound as in "t-ower" but like in "r-over". See e.g. these videos: ua-cam.com/video/garzGkWn63o/v-deo.html and ua-cam.com/video/VgqWMsH20cY/v-deo.html. Greetings!
Deja vu. That Kasparov game. I was expecting a draw. Feels like it was from that 48 game match. Can't be sure but I remember playing over all 96 games from the K v K matches.
