Love the back and forth banter and jokes between Alex & Gotham! Lets go! Two of the best content creaters in the game.
Yeah what's up with that😅😂 is there some bad blood between 'em.
Good content though from both
@@gjerahlddindji-msimang7874 they both sell the same opening courses
You convinced me. After decades with the Sicilian, i am preparing the CK for my next tournament. Because of you. I too want to have a relaxed, smug face, and enjoy the game while playing. You are an influencer. And you do this with serious content. Respect.
I think i will switch as well
Thank you Alex! Love these videos. I was around 1100 in rapid and now I boosted myself to 1500-1600. Much love
These videos are actually game-changing 🔥🔥
2$ lol cheap
Love the jokes with Levy & Grandpa Hikaru. It's insane how easy you make it look. I'm starting to find the moves when you tell us to pause, feels pretty damn good. Your an Amazing teacher! Thank you!!
i have climbed like 300 elo in the last three months by watching your videos and picking up the caro and vienna/london openings as my main opening plans. amazing content, lots of support from finland💪🤙
One of the main takeaways i always get from your videos is that the difference between an 800 elo player and a GM is that the GM blunders pieces slightly less often 💀
Surprisingly accurate
Thank you so much Alex for all your top videos, so instructive 🙏🙌 You gave me passion of chess and the wonderful Caro-Kann is now in my heart ! Can't wait for next games with Caro and the London system 😍
Dear Alex , thank's for all your vidéos made on caro and london , i have learned a lot , it look's so easy for you and we see how fun is for you to play all these lines . JC from France
i've been eagerly waiting for your next caro-kann video🌟
Alex, just wanted to thank you for your Caro-kann videos. That's the opening I always use against e4, so you're are helping me SO much. Really appreciate it💪💯❤
Alex, the person who helped me get 400 points in 4 months! 1400-1800 by using only 4 openings: queen’s gambit, London, Trompowsky, and caro kann!
Now using Vienna and a3 Sicilian!
Loved this video: entertaining, very instructive and beautiful tatics! Thank you Alex!
Bro ur content has been a huge help. Started playing last year and just hit 2000 lichess with ur London and caro lines
Thank you so much for putting out these great instructional videos for free. Alex the Goat!
Nice to see you finally go past 50k subs! I hope you tenfold it and then tenfold it again! Alex "The Machine" Banzea!
Best chess teacher on UA-cam by far. Can you please do a video focussing on the Caro exchange variation? It's easily the most boring compared to advance and tartakaur. is there a way to make it as interesting as the other variations, as either white or black?
Can’t wait for you course Alex!
Such a helpful video. Love the caro kann. Keep it up!
I got a 98.3% accuracy win with your Jabova London opening today. I also use the caro-kann because of you. Keep up the awesome content! 👍
Cool I also want get to 1000 ELO with those openings.... Wanna play??
Really appreciate the demonstration against higher rated players. Too often videos show FMs, IMs or GMs beating 1000 rated players and saying look how easy this is. This helps show how to really play the opening. Thanks.
I definitely will check out your upcoming Caro course.
I saw all your videos of the Vienna and Caro, you are literally my teacher at this moment 🧑🏼🏫
Thank you Alex!! You've helped me get out of nooby lobbies I love the caro now
recently found your channel and as a caro player I feel like I found cheat codes. great teaching style, thank you for the videos
Thank you very much! After playing Caro, i played the Black Lion for a while....This video is getting me back to base!
I passed 1200 in rapid a couple days ago thanks to your videos and Chessable course!
I always love it when the opponents get their hopes up that they will win by flagging. And then they get checkmated.
Finally a new vid! Feelsgoodman
Thanks for your Effort
Great waiting for more such videos..
Pure genius...and so much fun to watch you plan and listen to your commentary. THANK YOU!!!😇
Thank you !!! very instructional !!!!
Very useful big thx from Paris. Because in France we have a lot a course with blitzstream by exemple but not only caro cann and most of the time less level. I'am 1600 so your video is the best for me 👌🙏🙏
The attacking sequence in the second game was really beautiful
this content should have a million views at least, caro-kann for life!
Thank's Alex for all your vidéos. Your the best. ;o)
Caro-Kann is a fantastic opening. I went from 1300 to 1900 FIDE thanks to that opening! I did play it with Bf5 and I can assure you it works. People seldom know what to do... Some know like 14moves theory and start to do clueless things which not according to the opening plans for white. This causes you to easily take over the game into your direction. Many people play c5 or e5 and themselves as black and know a lot about that. The Scandinavian also works the same way. People often get clueless with white, and you can take over the game.
When is your Caro course coming out?????? I check everyday for it. Lol Also, we need a Vienna course as well. All your videos are golden. Thoroughly enjoy your thought process through out your videos. Really helps to understand concepts better. Thank you!!! ( I'm going to copy and paste this comment to all your videos until your course gets released. Hahaha)
Somewhere July for sure!
great video! thank you
I am a regular Caro player so I’ll take ALL the Kan videos I can get Alex! 🎉
Hey Alex, love the videos! One question: sometimes my opponents don't take the Knight on F6 in Tartakower, instead they play something else and the tension is maintained. Am I supposed to capture their Knight on E4 or still keep the tension and keep developing?
when is your caro-kann course coming out?
i am curious too
Me too i want to know.
Great video
Thank you very much
Thank you Alex! How would you deal with the Hilbilly Variation? I come across it alot in my 800s.
Hey Alex thank you so much for the incredibly generous and instructive videos…i have a question and a tip..honestly what will the course add to us more than what you already explained in your youtube videos…i mean i’m 1200 and learning how to crush 1700s from your videos what more will i learn from the course and the tip..i guess it’s worth considering managing your time FOR US 😊 you tend to talk freely in the beginning of the game then as a powerful IM you blitz genius moves at the end to convert successfully but by doing so we miss the reasons behind your moves and sometimes the pre moves are hard to even follow lol have you considered a longer time controls like 10 min ?
In my games, the Botvinnik line of the advance IS the main line.
Whether I’m playing with or against the Caro. It’s the only one I see.
Of course, after watching your Jobava London videos, I haven’t seen the Caro-Kann in about 100 games as white
"If you play good, that just makes their rating irrelevant," wins my "Doh!" quote of the year.
Love your videos, do you also still stream on twitch or youtube videos only?
Alex,it must be time for that caro course...Next few weeks i reckon.
Excellent.
I love the caro-content ❤
Just thought that I would mention that I appreciate your telling us to pause the video at times. I have gotten the correct move in each instance, but that is not to say that I would have found the move when actually playing the game. It just goes to show that there can be hidden tactics that club players may not see as easily.
Alex, will you make a course against 1 d4 or 1 c4 day? I love your products on Chessable.
You are a beast man
Alex. When can we get the caro kann chessablecourse? I’m ready to shift to these lines after 6 months of using the KIS lines
I have been at Cluj-Napoca on 2017
Your opponents....*deep thinking* dignity 😂
thank you for content. Love from Hungary
27:35
>opponent goes 4.c3 against the Caro-Kann botvinnik advance
“…And with that, I think we can move on to the following game”
Botvinnik-Carls is really good to play because you're practicing against the London at the same time.
This guy casually steamrolls the top % chess players while explaining & cracking jokes... This is crazy 🤣
Alex, where can I find a couple of games where white plays the exchange variation and then c4? Thanks
Hey ik you don't have a course on this, but can you make a fun video using the hippo setup?
like the London system course, you may provide 50/100 model+reference games. by studying these games along with repertoire, anyone can reach 2000 Elo in a month
will have separate course for model games!
@@AlexBanzea thanks
when i watch these videos it makes sense but when i go to play them, i get faced with some random shit and i dont know what to do lmao
I'd watch a 4h long caro video anyday just sayin
Can u do the Caro Kann against the very strong Goldmann Variation? ..3. Qf3
Haven’t seen u play against it. Thx
30:10 "He takes the bite..." was correct! :-)
Love your videos - Thanks!! But in Game two you could have checkmate him in move 19. Why didn't you do it?? Or missed I something? (Simply Qeen g2)
Sir can we also play the tartakower in classical fide rated OTB games?
Was anyone else's favorite part of the video the photo of the body builder at 0:27? 🤣
In the tartokower, what is the best move (No.7) for black when white has a bishop on c4 and white gives Qe2 check? (Black hasn't castled yet.)
Could you do a video exactly like this except on the London, this was super helpful to learn from
I already have a bunch in case you are new, but yes I can!
@@AlexBanzea more london and caro kann vids
Can I play Caro-Kaan on every opnening white plays or should I avoid Caro-Kaan on some white openings?
title mislead me to believe we were crushing people who were playing the caro kann lol
stuck in the washing machine =)) bro what movies are you watching ? :D
Love your videos Alex. Every time I watch them I learn something knew and then go and play 50 games against my 700 rated opponents that play so incorrectly they ruin theory instantly :( HAHAHAHA
Damnnn i think i willl watch all ur playlist about caro kann
Can’t hurt!
@@AlexBanzea thanks to your video, I think I'll start using caro-kann more often instead of scandinavian defense
This might be a dumb question, but I’ve been staring at the screen and can’t figure out for the life of me why at 15:41 taking the pawn on b2 with the queen on the next move wouldn’t be mate. Is it a missed mate in 1 or what am I missing? I’m still kinda new to chess so I’m still learning a lot.
Either way, your vids help a ton. As other have said, I play black with the Caro better than anything with white.
I think you mean the pawn on g2, and that would be mate if white didn't defend this with queen to e4, but he did.
I've been playing chess seriously for over half a year now and I started with the Caro-Kann and your video's. Right now I think I am pretty decent at the Caro-Kann with over 2500 games played. I really wanted to grind out 1 opening and get good at it but I feel like it's time to add another opening to my repertoire since I play a friend often and it can get quite boring playing only the same opening as black haha.. I also want to try something new so I was wondering, what is another good opening to play as a beginner against e5? :)
maybe french?
play pirc if u want a setup based opening but it can be hard for beginners because you're sacrificing center space in the pirc
Release date of caro kann chessable?
After QD6 Why can't the white pawn on F2 move to F4 and block the queen attack?
I've gotten really good playing black using the Caro Kann. Way better than when I play white! What should I use for White? I've tried the London and the Sicilian and I'm having trouble using them effectively. Maybe they need more time or maybe there is a better option?
Jobava London!
@@AlexBanzea Thank you! I haven't watched your video on that one, so, perfect. You're the man, cool guy! Keep up the good work.
Caro-Kann speed run!
@54:53 after move 5( bishop B5) can you not go QA5 check winning the bishop before he castles?
In the second game i would be so frustrated if my opponent didn't resign. I mean if he won he would be proud of such game? I wouldn't want to win if i was down so much material.
Great video as usually though 😊
Played a Tartakower after stopping the video at 17:50. 95% accuracy. I´m a 1450 rapid ´but the engine says that I have played as a 2250.
Time to watch the rest of the video.
I don´t know exactly why, but if I put the game or a link to it, the comment it´s removed
Hey Alex - you always say to Bxf3 in the Advance Variation, but in the last game you played 12. h3 Bh5. What was the reason behind this? Under what circumstances does Black not trade the light-squared Bishop for the Knight on f3?
Taking was also perfectly fine, when white has nbd2 you can slide it back (guess I was too focus on the analogy) haha
Awesome, thank you!
Horatio and Marcus approve of this video.
This is a great video, worthy of more views. Alex has to work his biceps though.
how long before your Caro-Kann Chessable comes out, Young Champion ?
Alex, thanks to you I blow away 1.e4 with ease. It’s not even hard.
What do I do against 1.d4? What response is as easy to play and forgiving of mistakes?

Alex la 39;47 de ce nu ai luat intai cu nebunul, ca apoi sa iei cu calul si să rămână furca rege/dama si castigai si o damă
He is funny and talented.
Game 4 - that 1915 player got DESTROYED
In terms of the intro, I personally feel like Elo points are less valuable than learning to calculate in different openings. Naturally this doesn't apply to everyone, especially an IM teaching it, but if the Caro-Kann is used as a crutch, it's probably detrimental for long term progress.
24:09 what’s wrong with c5 here? I’m really asking.
I saw the tactic at 23:55 nearly instantly, and then at 26:15, I thought “doesn’t this move just blunder the pawn??” 😅
