I follow different teachers here (gotham, Alessia santeramo, Daniel naroditsky, Remote Chess academy), but you are the best imho. Good explanations, very detailed and very logical. I am starting to adapt your approach. Thanks!!
The Colle is my go-to white game for getting into a solid middle game position - but you played with more patience than I usually do, as did your opponent - at my level people love to trade every chance they get 😄
Another great lesson. I don't know enough about chess to make my own assessment, but I trust the experts when they say Capa had a "simple," "crystal clear," and "principled" style of chess that beginners can learn from.
Yo! I was just thinking about this kind of stuff 2 days ago. Your playstyle is really similar to capablanca. Can you make a series of playstyle of old chess players, nowadays GMs are really balanced and general and I cannot learn specific stuff from their games whereas old chess players had a distinct playstyle and ideology that helps to study them. It would be really helpful to actually understand how chess players evolved to actually get to the next level. You could make 25mins videos breaking down these players. Idk if it will bring in many views but, it will be fun!
No surprise you like Capablanca! What I like about your approach is that it gives me complete clarity about what I am doing, so I am saving a lot of time. My Black openings are not exactly Capablanca - Scandanavian Modern and King's Indian - but I've had some really good wins over guys rated 2200 and above. 3 or 4 in the last week, compared to 3 or 4 per month before I started doing this.
Hello Jonas! I enjoy your videoes and learn a lot. I think it would be fun to see you do other concepts/other kind of videoes in the chess-space. The videoes are very similar right now and it would be fun if you springle in different kinds of content! This doesn't mean it has to be another angle than your teaching style-persona. E.g. your poll where you suggested if we wanted to see you play an opponent of your level and/or get the analyses after. Or maybe a video of you playing an opponent where you explain your moves with a voiceover after the game or something? Excited to see what the future brings for this channel! I will be following.
Thanks, already recorded 50+ videos against humans so far but none of them have turned out to be good videos so I didn't post any of it. It's near impossible to explain thoughts with the clock ticking down, game reviews always feel extremely boring to me so I haven't uploaded those either. Still trying to figure out something.
@Pegasus-Chess You'll figure it out! Maybe you could play a 1000-1200 level player and explain as you go along? Majority of people watching these UA-cam videoes are looking to go from 400-800 to 1200, so maybe it would be an instructive video to see that 1200 also blunder/plays inaccurately all the time? Anyways, just suggestions and trying to help :)
Hey, Jonas! Cool video, dude, and thanks for sharing. I like playing simple chess myself and try to avoid complex middlegames where there are many lines to calculate. One piece of literature in my library that helps me calculate tactics and how far ahead to calculate is "Chess Training Pocket Book II" by Lrv Alburt and Al Lawrence. 330 key positions for players of all skill levels and commentary from the 3 time U.S. Champion. Calculation is by far the hardest part of chess for me, and I really struggle when I can feel the game has reached the "THAT POINT" where the next move is critical and precision is a must. There is something to be said about accurate and precise play. Anyway, man, thanks for sharing your knowledge.
I find your clear explanations very helpful. I cannot find any videos where you illustrate your principles by playing black. Could you please show how your principles work for black? Thanks for great videos.
at 9:58 you don't have to go back with the rook after f5, becuase it comes with a discovered check apart from that I think the game was perfect :o great explanation aswell!
Great video, this are the moves i ussually play, and give me the best results... i'd love to see you playing against humans, because they make some random moves, or mistakes, and sometimes those make things dificult on my "boring" and "simple" game... thanks you
I feel like i do all these things and my opponents copy me slightly moving pieces around until we have a 70+ move game and i still lose. i am not able to see when is the right time to execute. either that or i lose to a trick and lose immediately.
I like the "not too much happening here" & "boring moves" -improving and awaiting the opportunity to exploit the openings in the opponents armour.

I think Capablanca would love that, he was obsessed with endgames

Now if I only had a fraction of his talent and knowledge of positional chess...

I particularly like, "but what if Ur oppo doesn't take?". That's where I would have fallen. All info is good.
Excellent. Thanks for these lessons. Really interesting and helpful.
More of these Capablanca simple chess.

@@Pegasus-Chess I'm sure You've mentioned Capa B/4. I'd go so far as to say; many Opponents are familiar w/Modern Chess. This is a secret weapon.

Good idea I'll try it out with rapid games.

good video!
how do you make the screen white whilst playing :o? that is really cool.

very instructive
must translate in the game

Anyone know what he is pressing to make the screen white and play out the variations ?
When you play a bot without time you van use edit mode, bottom right 🔍
@@Pegasus-Chess Do you think that using this option can help a beginner or rather negatively affect his variants counting later in real games?
I feel like i do all these things and my opponents copy me slightly moving pieces around until we have a 70+ move game and i still lose. i am not able to see when is the right time to execute. either that or i lose to a trick and lose immediately.
