In this video, GM Alex Lenderman gives you an introduction to the topic of Isolated Pawns. An Isolated Pawn is a pawn that’s not protected by a neighbouring pawn, which means that potentially the Isolated Pawn can be a little weak because it can be attacked by the opponent’s pieces but it cannot be protected by pieces and not by pawns. The Isolated Pawn can be also a strength as the side with the Isolated Pawn has a space advantage and he has a chance of getting very good initiative and a good attack potentially.

GM Alex Lenderman makes an outstanding introduction to how to play with the isolated pawn structure, explains the main strategies to follow and the examples are excellent. Congratulation I really like it

[@wizwwe123]

very useful pawn structures are very important to understand

[@Chessfactor]

You're right! The importance of pawn structures should not be underestimated.

[@XFlyingDutchmanX]

Qb1 at 14:34 was completly shocking for me. I couldn't find this move. Instead I only thought about Rxg6+. I noticed strong players often make these moves where they put a piece on a slightly better square or add them to the attack and build their position. That is something I need to train on. I tend to forget such "quiet" moves especially after a sacrifice when the attack is rolling and I have the feeling like I have no time for improving pieces anymore

@@Chessfactor hhhh😇🙏🙏💖💖
I am so happy that you remember my wish
i see you are great guys with great potentials and 2d board was not only for me but because i think it is also good for you chanel as other famous ones.
although the 2d board is enough for me, but as an extra wish and advice please add yourself next to the 2d board that would make it more popular, i guess
Regards

[@beloglavisup2]

Tal played symetrical Tarrasch. If you can tell us something about Tarrasch defense, main line, or symetrical variation, it would be very helpfull.

[@abdullahkhan-lh3bu]

VERY VERY nice video!! Let me ask something if you may, at 13:47 could white play immediatelly Qxh5 ? after gxh5 Bf6+ is that a mate or i miss something?

[@Chessfactor]

Hi Nick, you are right he could play immediately Qxh5 but it is only a mate if black would capture back with gxh5. The move sequence you mentioned is also correct for the checkmate. In case he captures back, Bf6+ is mate. However, if black does not capture the Queen on h5 and instead captures whites bishop with …Bxg5, White needs to recapture with the Rook Rxg5 and wins a piece. Otherwise if he captures with the Queen instead of the rook, Qxg5, he is losing his advantage after …Qxg5 Rxg5 f6. It is really great that you follow the games in detail. This will definitely help you to improve your chess!

[@DeathAbove86]

@@Chessfactor thank you for your reply! Indeed, after ...Bxg5, white should capture with the Rook, very nice detail! Your videos have helped me to improve my whole perception about chess!
