Argumentative Guy: "I'm sure there's a lot of games that start with e4 c6"
Ben, without missing a beat: "No, no, there's not; just this one."
😂
25:43 "He lived in Prague so czech-mate"... He has a million of them!
Luciano Damian
He's Savage
"Can I set this up before you give the wrong answer?"
Savage. GM Finegold's a G.
.....M
I literally choked on my water when he made that Vishwa-nothing joke
+Larry Bui :)
Larry Bui lol me too
One of his staples
It is a joy listening to this guy analyze chess...
GM Ken West used to play speed chess with Richard Reti
They had to get Chuck Norris to manage the time controls.
Such a fantastic resource. There's nothing like this on the net, and I thank you all very much for putting it all up! I hope you guys keep it this way for years, the potential for learning is great. I can't thank you enough, such quality lectures, and such world-class teachers!!!
PD: It took me a while to "get" GM Finegold's humor. But after looking at so many lectures, the guy just cracks me up. He has a million one-liners, and "GM Ken West" always gets me.
the guy who won't be quiet probably needs to be quiet. ben has a lot of patience. great lecture.
I got scarlet fever twice in the late 70s or early 80s. Usually you develop immunity after the first time, but I didn't. I didn't die from it either time... as far as I can tell.
arujun & ken west are now more famous than bobby fischer
Ben: Which first world champion approved of K-G8?
Kid: George Washington?
Ben: George Washington, that's right.
Nice patience shown by Ben with the extremely rude audience member who would never stop interrupting.
Yeah that kid needed to shut the fuck up
Unfuckingbearable... ruined the whole tutorial
That kid is Ben's kid so your argument is invalid
NUKE... every comment made here is true you bozo... "invalid" pfff nice choice of words tho... smh
?
New kid in class was likable: INCORRECT
Level of disruption/humor of new kid: SUSPICIOUS
Verification by Arujun: YEAH
Official GM Certification of these statements: KEN WEST
Overall assessment: TERRIBLE
That's a very suspicious spelling of Arjun, Mr Feynman,
Too bad, Saint Louis is way too far from my home town to travel. These "sessions" are fun! Make more of them!
Ben Finegold the man of the year
One of his better vids!
6:40 « retreat like a… ? »
« Grandmaster »
🤦🏻♂️
And I’m laughing, laughing 😂
AMAZING
You know, I wasn’t as annoyed as everybody else was by the guy in the audience.
Me either, I didn't even really notice.
I was expecting to see the Reti opening. Lol.
Right Arjun? Yeah... Wonder what he's up to these days. Hope all is well. May all your moves be checkmate.
20:38 ..... Ben was about to say Morphy
Ben be like sometimes all I think about is you 😀
nobody got the "paris" joke at 32:49 , its a reference to "Casablanca"
Ashwin Kusuma Excellent, well spotted!
I’m shocked, shocked that I didn’t catch the reference right away.
This is my favourite finegold video
We need a written list of your "Finegold Rules"
chessconfessions.blogspot.rs/2009/04/finegold-rules.html
Yeah bro
According to the rules moving the knights for a bunch of moves would be finegolds great game.
"12 Never move pawns!" why?
@@-_Nuke_- Because they can't go backwards.
@@xDMrGarrison true
It seems that there's a new guy in the audience who doesn't like Ben that much...
Awesome video
I too owe GM Ben Finegold...I was like what I don't know this game what the heck is Qd3 and then after Bd2 I too was like oooooooh right I know this one
9:05: I hate it when there is a vote and everybody gets it wrong, including the teacher - in this case Ben. Terrible. ;) I checked with stockfish because it felt odd to me, and indeed Nxe6 is stronger and gives white almost +2. Rxe6 is probably winning too, but only around +1. Also important to note, after Rxe6, c5 was a big blunder (skyrockets white's adventage to over +5). Black should have played Ne4 instead: Getting the knight to the strong outpost and threatening/getting the valuable f4 pawn in exchange for c6.
Thanks for the follow up. That was a little dubious to me also.
idk what everyone's complaining about, I'm enjoying listening to Ben argue with Homestar Runner
So no one's going to talk about how funny Ben Finegold's lectures are?
"I thought he was still alive, but he died young at age 40 in 1929." He says that as if he'd still be alive in 2015 if he hadn't died young.
beat down followed by the smack down took place
This kid Argen? almost every video mentions him and this little voice pipes up from the background to answer questions etc. Even in some classes when he is NOT there, Ben mentions him! Can we please see Argen and perhaps go over a game of his. He is (or should be!) as famous as Ben himself!
MrMorlaf it's Arjun
MrMorlaf Just search for: Arjun plays the Benoni.
3:37 "He doent stack paper to the ceiling, he doesnt ride on 24 inch chome ... he's got nothing!"
LOL
these are the best videos on youtube
1. e4!!
What a move!
e4!! - amazing.
arujun = best. :)
i love these lectures. i dont even play chess. or CHESS.
The line above the letter e is a legit letter in the hungarian alphabet é (“ey” in “hey.”).
ben is just too cool :D
Handsome man
4:17 we have a discovered attack because I just discovered it
Black takes @ 3:02. Earned him the Finegold Look of Contempt.
Pitching shade at Tartakower?! Which one has a major variation of the QGD named after him?
37:38 what about Qc2-f5? I gotta engine check that one
Doesn't he just take your queen with the pawn, and if you check with bishop h5, he blocks with rook g6?
If this youtube channel needs a editor to go back and time stamp old videos let me know!
Ben discussing pandemic six years ago in beginning of video 😂
always love e4 exclam. 1:55
Finegold 2016
"I thought he was still alive, but it turns out he died in 1929 at the age of 40" xD
Ben is the man!
20:37 you say "So Mor...Reti" thinking about Morphy all the time, aren't you?
At 23:05, black to D6 is not an option to defend?
18:20 He was born in Slovakia, so it still exists
xD Réti or not here I come hahahahaha
e4 exclam!
e4 exclam!!! :D
Q: what do you call it when you find Richard Reti's dead body
The Reti Closing
1:55 e4 exclam 😂😂😂
What is up with the one guy in the class?
Wait a second...Reti did not play Reti opening!!!
He died in 1929 at the age of 40. Strange to assume he still was alive considering he was born 1889.
Are you the guy from the audience?
TheBeebs No, but i kinda feel like it now, since I missed the humour :)
Poor Tartakower good enough to have a name, but not two 🥺
A surprising number of people are hating on "disruptions", when Ben has a huge amount of interaction with the audience and is calling on them and asking what they think is the right move like every 5 seconds. Frankly terrible.
@0:20 Lol Réti -- "a thing over the letter, thing that makes no sense, all the Norway people have them, that's brain damage I assume"
Was Capablanca the worlds best player before?
A world champion at the time
"some like space, some don't... my ex girlfriend for example.. ah, nevermind"
Feel bad for Ken west
show the audience
Arjun makes the lecture twice as long
He talks chess like Saul Goodman talks law.. (from BB)
The loss to Reti by Capablanca made newspaper headlines at the time."Finally the chess machine lost a game!!"
why is c4 a good move? it attacks d5?? INCORRECT! learn the script kid. this guy is good though.
Guy in the audience is annoying
Adam Rubinson He is new i think, never heard him before really really annoying.
Adam Rubinson I agree; he's like a heckler at a stand-up's routine, trying to be more vocal than the performer.
Adam Rubinson Argh, now I'm focused on his annoying comments even more!
Just another needy kid with low self esteem. Chess clubs are full of them.
I believe it is Finegold's famous protege Julian.
Julian is giving lectures now.... very suspicious
VIshwa-nothin? :D
i always like to trade bishops for knights
AMDdotcom I like bishops man! Two bishops are killing in open positions!
Make sure you can create nice outposts and close the center, or open up the center to create long diagonals then.
32:39 joke combo! :D :D Capablanca will always have Paris ahahahah :D I love that movie
They don't talk about French? What of it's just "in passing"?
reti was german with jewish and slovak roots
I've never met the dude who wouldn't shut up, but I feel like I know exactly who he is and we all know someone like him
When I hear that kid in the class, I can’t help but think of that smug idiot who keeps popping up in ads trying to sell me the Epoch Times.
Richard Reti was from Slovakia so he is not Czech legend. Czechoslovakia only.
Savielly Tartakower VS Richard Reti (1910) Reti lost this game
15:05 Ben: "Reti or not here comes the queen"
sassy NPC: "You already made that joke"
has he never been to a Ben lecture before? It's literally 5 jokes told over and over. He's clearly also never been to a lecture on good manners.
Where's yasser? Or the armenian?
ULTRA-96 its Jonathan schrantz
some of those puns are so terrible they are actually funny
guy in the audience is extremely annoying I understand that he wants to comment from time to time but he talks way too much in the video...
that's weird. I actually said ruined like in family guy. suspicious
you argin, incorrect hahahahahahhhahaha lol
Arjun
Class dismissed
F
It was funny hearing that whiny kid answer so sure of himself and be so wrong.
Trade queens when you are checking mate the opponent. . Lol!
Accent makes sense fool
i wish that the annoying kid in the audience actually understood this guys humour.
funny jew
Too much clowning!!
That guy that kept doggin finegold in the audience haha Hero !!
I'm from the future. There will be a guy who's more annoying than audience guy.
