Arjun is going to need years of therapy lol
I took notes for the entire 45 minutes but no matter how hard I study I still can't understand all the jokes!
Sentence 2 and already he's already making fun of *censored*.
don't worry, you can say his name. it's the modern "liberals" who are for censorship
Finegold is the most savage and exciting lecturer of the club by far
Enough of censoring a chess lecture. Jokes are not meant to be taken seriously, just relax. Ben is the best.
Jordan Smith What none of you at home understand yet is that abruptly removing the Donal- jokes is like ten times funnier than keeping them in, and that's half the reason why Ben Simon is doing it.
rex sinqfield is a die-hard trump supporter and for him there is NOTHING funny about a donald trump joke. NOTHING. :-)
Ben Simon has stated that it wasn't Rex, it was that he was tired of reading flame wars in the comments. Rex and Ben seem to get along, despite disagreeing on economic policy. Rex is a good guy,
Ian Remsen of course we love rex but ben knows which way the wind is blowing. ben Simon I mean. nobody gives a shit about you tube commenters they have mental state barely above protozoa saying things like "first" and "u sux". to care about comments is being far too disingenuous
Eric, let me be the first to tell you....that you suck....
Only a few days into 2017, Ben's already back, firing shots at everybody. Love it!
You're spoiling us with all these Ben Finegold videos!
Got a notification on my phone a Ben video was uploaded!!
3:05
"What country is Riga in?
(...)
The correct answer is Moscow "
GM knows his countries
Moscow was the answer to "Where was the 2011 Tal Memorial?"
Thanks Ben! Another great lecture.
"Probably when they're watching this video I'm already divorced" Had to pause it hahaha
Oh, Finegold. There never was a better name for a chess instructor.
Ben - amazing lecture again. Thanks very much. Can we please see a return of your famous "class dismissed!"?
Love ur videos @andyisyoda. Also, go ben! But stay there.
I love watching Bens videos. :D
Yes! So many BEN VIDS!!!!!
gm finegold :) i love your videos keep them coming!
(15:20) Opposite coloured Rooks, hahaha very observant. I think many people would have missed that.
lol
Dan Kelly I see you everywhere
You down with O.P.P.?
14:47 "...and then, bishop takes, pawn takes, and white has a fantastic pawn structure". xD
This videos will never age.
Great stuff as always.
hey ben, if you read this: please keep up! you're my favorite. i watch all of your vids on this channel :) (i suck at chess though, but maybe i'll become better after some more videos ;)
many many tx for this video !
Brasil
Why did you cut out Ben's story of working with Nakamura!??? I wanted to hear Ben's insight on nakamura's weakness witht he grunfeld.
I agree
Yeah I agree
With all due respect, Ben Finegold's a crap GM and always has been; Nakamura plays better chess on accident than Finegold plays on purpose. It's a shock that Nakamura would even bother working with the guy.
AHAHAHAHHAHAHAAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH Bro he is 2450-2500 for more than 20 years, and you say he is a 'crap GM'? LOL probably not the Super GM strength, but still incredibly strong.
@@profd65 With all due respect, your opinion is shit and always will be; Finegold plays better chess than you will ever play in your entire life. It's a shock that you would even bother writing a comment when you're below 1k elo and don't understand 95% of the moves played by GMs.
"I like making fun of Nakamura because who doesn't."
hahaha some people just have a personality that invites this sort of thing.
Were you referring to the Fisher vs Spassky game earlier in the vedio?
Where can I get unedited version
I love how Ben talks to camera with snarky comments😭 he’s so entertaining, yet informative
"Nakamura doesn't play for prize money..." *Almost falls over from trying to stifle his laughing*
Perfect!
Please make a video with all the censored Trump content,I bet the subscribers would love that
That would actually be pretty funny.
Lucas Belintani I started that
MAKE THIS HAPPEN NOW
riga is in latvia ?
thats a good idea
In fact, there have been some good British GMs, Short doesn't let us forget that there was a great British player who beat Morphy. But, I do think we need more Chess!
14:26 ... listen, I'm fine getting forked or skewered, but if anybody tries to spoon me during a chess game we're gonna have issues.
what chess program do they use for videos??
What is the opening/ Outro song? It goes hard
Anybody know what movie / documentary he`s talking about?
Not dismissing the class: terrible!
Third time.
GM Finegold still the best, though (but i miss GM Oberyn Martel and Yasser)
João Luís GM oberyn martell hahahahaha That's gold
Artic Shreder, He actually respond on the live chat at the sinqfield cup, he's some gentleman. 😂
portugues?
Mc gravata brasileiro 😂
jogas no chess.com?
I did the best I could to analyze the position at 29:25 when black plays the mysterious b4. White is probably just winning in this position, so I had to consider logical moves that weren't best for white to understand the idea for black. After axb4, the b pawn is weak, the black rook can take the b pawn, and the the black queen can go to a5 and threaten the white king. And the position is about equal. The following line is an example. 1.... b4, 2. axb4, Ne5, 3. Qh3, Rb8, 4. Qg2, h5, 5. gxh5, Rxb4, 6. Rdg1, Bb7, 7. Nxe6, Qa5, 8. Bd4, Qa1+, 9. Kd2, Qa5, 10. Ra1, Nxe4, 11. Qxe4, Bxe4, 12. Rxa5, Bxh1.
Man the Adams joke at 1:25 had me on the floor
this guy gets hella sidetracked
thats the best part
+1
love love. we jus love Gm Finegold. love from Iran
Okay... Right before white takes blacks king, after Nd5, why doesn't black just retreat to b7? I see the problem with all the other squared except d7. I appreciate any answers very much.
22:06 checks twitter mid-lecture
yeiiii bens lecture
Was the alligator joke related to crocodile tears? Uuh... it's a long-shot but was the only think I could think of :D haha!
He was up a queen and he drew against anish.
The stuff from 1:00 to 2:00 just cracks me up so much😂
0:30 The only cups I win are the cups of beefaronian.
GRANDMASTER BEN FINEGOLD!!!
Can somebody explain me what problem Ben has with Hikaru???
He beat him
@@Noah-wv4td This comment didn't age well.
"Trying is the first step to failure"
@35:59 White should have went Knife f5, then knight d6 because: always repeat.
I can't spell opposite... what comes after opp?
2017 = Amazing. Finegold back at the chess club, Trump taking over the White House. This will be the year we tell our grandkids about!
Is that Arjun Eringaisi?
I have played this guy before, he literally didn't look at the board one time because he was talking to someone and he beat me q.q
At 19:11, why doesn't white play Re4?
any chance you could talk about laissez faire and what is up with that move? it hurts my brain.
When you are attacking, you must move your arms like Donkey Kong, not like King Kong. Learn the difference Ben.
I feel so proud I got the joke at 11:52 :D
There's a lot of good defenses for the C pawn...I just don't see any. 😂😂😂😂 Classic Ben.
Ben is raw
Is it just me or has Ben's crying gotten better? Perhaps related to his recent marriage?
Terrible.
It's because of his new book: "Cry like a Grandmaster"
"Wesley So from Finegold School of Chess"
31:03 15... b4 16. axb4 Ne5 17. Qxf4 Nexg4 18. Bxg4 e5 19. Nd5 Nxd5 20. Qf3 Nxb4 is good for black... Nakamura played b4 for this reason maybe
11:49 lol Marshall
We r watching in 2018
That last game looked completely alien to me! wtf
Right, Arjen?
Where's GM Akobian these days?
Lol I wanna see Arjun
Hahahaha! that was pure gold, 20:57
Does anybody know Daniel Dardha 11 years 2100 fide I'm his best friend
3,10: he´s actually saying Latvia
When black plays rd6 what happens if black takes it with the queen?
After white takes with the knight, material's about equal and white's pawns are all screwed up, right?
Wtf dude 18:53 why didn't he do Re5 checking the kings moving the king away from rook then taking rook ? or something like that ..? oh nvm king can just move to white square
so a GM is basically just really good at memorizing computer lines?
Lee Chang Yes.
if you thought 2017 was bad...
Never knew opposite colored rooks are a draw. I’d take notes but I’m stuck on opp
the second half -- more than half is sidetracked talk. still worth it but a little annoying
@y0KI
FOR TRAINING
the 40 year old grandmaster. get the book
BEN YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
24:15 😂😂
that's a great Bobby Fischer joke
I feel like i get it even if I don't get it, which is most of the time. And when I do get it, I guess I feel like Arjun.
What about rook E5 check
Yay Finegold!
Lost some weight ben 😀👍
3:35 hmmm... very suspicious
Can this guy not touch his face for a whole minute?
"Most of you don't look too cute... ", still laughing!
9:55
14:45
Why take the knight?
demonhead鬼 seemed weird to me too. Probably because So wanted to further damage naka’s pawn structure? Trade down further as he’s up in material.
It 2018
5 people always play f6
followed by f3
*very suspicious*
its true! sometimes when I play with my father he forgets what color he has, so he moves my piece instead of his xΔ
loosing is not good? !!!! terrible....
Can someone explain the alligator joke... lol
It was on the phrase “alligator tears”, and the joke was that his tears were fake and he didn’t actually care
19:19 why not D6 to protect pawn on F4 then if black takes they trade bishops and he could try and Tie the match?
Nj Rocks Cuz 2 pawns down in a rook endgame is hopeless. 1. Bd6 Rxd6 2. Rxc4 Re6+ 3. Kd2 Re4 and trades rooks or captures the a-pawn creating connected passers. Both cases easily winning.
32:18: You say Nakamura played a practice game with his coach in that position, but don't you mean that Caruana did?
sacundim yeah I also think he meant Caruana
No, nakamura played the position with his coach, and incorrectly judged that the position was a draw
Legend Say if you comments within 10 hours of publish, The Chess Club and Scholastic Center of Saint Louis, they will reply to you. ;)
How's that working out for you?
Opposite coloured rooks to backsites.

22:27 Fabiano Caruana vs Hikaru Nakamura, London Chess Classic (2016): B96 Sicilian, Najdorf, 7.f4
32:00. B4 looks like it helps White. I think chess computers have evolved sarcasm.
