    Hey Daniel,
    Thank you for making these instructional videos. I really appreciate it, I value them so highly. I have seen improvement in my game at around 700 in both the Danish and Carro. I hope to catch your stream in tge future as I catch myself having questions for you mid video. Oftentimes you do clear up my questions at the end evidently, so once again thank you.

    Hey man! I almost NEVER comment on UA-cam but felt I should. Not sure if this will ever reach your eyes, but it amazes me how people can complain about having access to a GM teaching them chess for free. It's a dream come true for beginners and chess players across the board, something that was probably next to impossible just a decade ago. I used to play when I was a kid and then lapsed for like 10+ years but its been so fun coming back with this resources available. Also super instructive: my chess its already increased noticeably better. So yeah, good job on standing your ground and hats off to you for making this. The world needs more people like this.

    25:59 It wouldn't limit black that much because you could move the queen to pin the knight instead of taking the bishop allowing it to take your pawn, then chase it away with your rook, then you get the D4 pawn.

    7:41 for Qd6 to put real pressure on the e6 pawn, you would first need to get rid of the knight on d4, right? Because otherwise the e6 pawn can just sit there and wait, knowing the queen cannot take, which would be quite annoying.

      I'm just learning caro, but it seems like taking the bishop instead of dropping back is pretty good. It prevents the pawn at c3 supporting D4, and preserves our own pawn structure so that castling is safer. WDYT?

    I’m new to chess, so wasn’t aware of the drama that Daniel was referring to at the beginning. That lead to me watching so many interesting videos.
    But yeah, Agree it’s a shame it’s the “most watched chess game” for the wrong reasons.
