    "And now your opponent has 2 moves" me in 500 ELO trying this opening and everyone making every move except those 2.

      This is something that always bugs me about this kind of stuff. There might only be “2 moves”, meaning that all the other ones aren’t strong enough to be considered. But the moment my opponent makes one of those moves I’m taken out of my prep and still have no clue how to punish the apparently bad move.

      I know to get ahead in the opening every time (against people of my level) but I can never manage to convert that to a win. I know a decent amount of basic chess principes that I can use to get ahead and assess my position. But when it comes to actually winning with that advantage I’m useless.
      (Doesn’t help that I also still blunder pieces quite often but that aside it’s still annoying)

Imho you are one of the best chess teachers on UA-cam together with Anna Cramling. Did you ever consider to do a collab with her? Like you playing 10 games with the Caro-Kann against her and look how often she can beat you? You deserve a greater audience.
