You crack me up Igor. I was hanging on every word and when you said “why do we even play chess?” I burst out laughing. Thank you for the great sense of humor.
Sir Please make a video on how to find tactical pattern easily and which endgames are most important
Yeah man
Please leave this comment on every video until he does it
Yea man
Puzzels
He is not stockfish.
Yes, please make this a series! I would love to see these questions applied to other openings as well

3 gambit rules: develop quickly, break open center, attack the king
Bro literally greatest chess online preacher and teacher of ALL TIMES of this ERA ...THE SAINT OF CHESS....BLESS ALL
Really like that soft-light background! Looking sharp!
Obviously, the content was fantastic as well. I just hope that goes without saying!
hot and cool, hip and new age
I would say that the presentation is the most professional of chess videos on YT.
I love love love the Scandinavian. Played it for years. Just now learning Accelerated Dragon.
Really close to what I was looking for as a beginner, please dive deeper into these topics ✌️
These type of videos are absolute gold.
It would be fantastic if you could apply these four questions to other specific openings as well. That would be a huge source of additional content for you. I'm always in search of chess videos that give me *understanding* not just memorization.
agreed

Brilliant walk through, has changed my chess
THE BEST chess teacher
I only play 960 random chess now. No more memorizing lines for me. It's all tactics and creativity.
You have to try Gaugamela Chess. It is truly great.
@@CheckmateSurvivor I'm checking out your vids of Gaugamela against Stockfish. Pretty wild
@@Jason-Moon Thanks.
No opponent in 960
@@ilyasadukovskiy I've not had trouble finding players to match.
I watched the master class and after that I played according to what I learned and it was amazing I won 4 games in a row. And it also felt more fun to play according to your method. Thank you
Matter class
It's like watching your math professor do calculus. Makes sense when he does it but doing it yourself is much harder
Answering the question "why do I play chess" has been one of the most productive cognitive events of my life. Nevertheless, I still play 😄.
Reminds me of a guy who told me during a tournament that chess was "a waste of time." Said he was going to win all his games before quitting. Dunno if he did that but he sure as heck beat me---and quite soundly too.
Bro read my mind. you just gained a subscriber smirnov
Best post for us🎉❤

00:01:06 Understanding the logic behind each move is crucial.
00:03:09 Consider attacking moves to activate pieces effectively.
00:05:51 Utilize gambits to develop quickly and attack strategically.
00:12:53 Remember key questions: plans, piece positions, and tactics.
00:16:01 Common tactics include knight forks and exploiting pins.
00:16:36 Utilize knight jumps to create threats.
00:16:49 Capitalize on pins to target opponent's pieces.
00:17:27 Consider sacrifices to open up the position.
00:18:00 Understanding these tactics enhances attacking capabilities.

Understanding being superior to blind memorization reminds me of this quote.
“Any fool can know. The point is to understand.”
- Albert Einstein
Perfectly said and applies well here. 👍
There are a lot of your videos when "opponent" loses badly just by playing "natural moves", but at the same time you are playing crazy moves, sometimes sacrificing minor pieces and even rook or queen in order to win the game. So I think the question of how to memorize the chess opening was specifically about this. How to remember all the tricks that I can play in the opening and especially how to defend in case opponent is trying to use one of them.
This man is the best teacher I never had
I like your videos , simple and helpful❤
❤
amazing line !!!
Thanks buddy 😊
Thanks sir!
& he mentioned Levi. Igor is a smooth dude.
Hi Igor, can you make a video on e6, b6 defence?
another great vid
GREAT VIDEO!
Thanks a lot
Now we need golden rules or step by step guide to play like nezhmetdinov. Who wants a video about this?
Original title: How I play Scandinavian
Bishop b5+ after black's Knight f6 throws off this defense, which happens to be the second most used move.
Also helps to learn opening principles/traps from Smithy's Opening Fundamentals on Chessable
thank you
I was just watching one of your videos where you talked about counter attacking after you suggest white might play pf3, I'm like what about bb4+
I am seeing Stockfish recommending 3.Nf3 as the best move, just ahead of 3.d4. It is also associated with a higher win rate for white, both overall and in the Masters only database. So why is d4 nearly four times as popular among GMs?
Furthermore, after 3.d4, 4.Bg4 is only the 2nd most common (both among GMs and overall) and the 3rd choice from Stockfish, after Qxd5 (1st choice) and Nxd5 (2nd). White's winning percentages after white's move 4 is as follows:
4.Qxd5 -- 51% for full db, 59% for GMs
4.Nxd5 -- 50%, 41%
4.Bg4 -- 43%, 42%
It seems that Igor's recommendations here are in conflict with both computer analysis and real-world outcomes. Well, at least he gives us reasons for each move. That should help us all to remember the wrong move.
4:12 What do you suggest if opponent plays Be2 instead of f3? Stockfish suggests to trade, isn't it a mistake?
Now we need a video of how to remember the four questions
I can finally play the Scandinavian Defense safely.😇😎
Can you review the games played in candidates. Cause normal people can't understand the moves played in candidates. And a GM like you explain those moves and ideas played in candidates would be really informative.
Nice gambit. Looks a lot like the Gandalf gambit.
Question? What is wrong with C4 to protect the D5 pawn immediatly after Nf6?
It would be great if you make a crash course on Nimzo Indian and queens Indian defence
Nice idea.
Memorizing only helps to a point anyway, as your opponent is sure to throw something bizarre at you a few moves in and you're pretty much on your own, but it still helps to have a good framework to work from.
Damn, I forgot 4 rules right after watching this video...
You're not the only one, I forgot as well...
😂😂😂
when you have already checkmated your opponent before the checkmate i'm trying to find out how you made it after when the game is over. so, i have a lot to learn.
Mentor, I’ve have wrote down and remember 3 of 100. I’ll keep gravitating to saved posts.
It's probably fair to say that NMs and above have intrinsically superior memory, visualization and calculation skills compared to the vast majority of other players. As Russian chess trainer Mark Dvoretsky pointed out no matter how hard they play or study most will reach a plateau from which they can never advance but only recede. Basically one needs a certain "chess sense" which enables superior play. A handful of humanity has it, most don't. So don't be frustrated if you can't "get it," that's just the way Mother Nature rolled the dice.There are after all other things besides chess...
Can you review game in candidate
I believe PP on the PP is Alex Banzea’s thing.
great:)
Отлично видно Игорь, спасибо ❤
Isn't that very first opening with the queen capture pawn gothem chesses proven tactic?
Nice thumbnail mate
10:51 As Levy would say, before PP on the PP, you have to sacrifice the RooOooOooK!! 10:10
I find one of the harder things is practicing a new opening. Perhaps I should try some unrated matches or something. Try them against bots but it's almost impossible to get good practice in! Either the bot is like 1000-1200 and is way too easy, or it's like 2100 to 2200, which for me is way too hard!
17:08 That pin is so nasty, it's not just the bishop that's going to fall. It's actually impossible for white to save their queen. That position is just an instant resignation for white.
Igor, on 15:00 you say its a common tactic to win the queen but you are absolutely WRONG.
This doesn't work in this case because the king can move forward and there's no skewer possible on the white diagonal.
I learned Scandinavian Defense repertoire by our very own handsome FM Deniel Causo 😍
nice intro to icelandic
What if they play d4->d5 instead of taking on f7?
What if bishop will protect the queen instead of pone?
What if after you move bishop to g4 they move their bishop to b5?
want to learn how to memorize openings? let's explore the most complex opneings played at cosmic grand master level to help you
2:48 the way bro said white is fighting for equality 😂😂😂
Why can’t you play night C2 at 9:05
That ICBM variation of the Tennison Gambit is very bad it just ruined my accuracy, stockfish didnt give me a book move instead it gave me a mistake, after e4 d5 Nf3? I would've had had perfect accuracy if it wasnt for that move
I love this way of understanding this opening ! Thank you.
How is one supposed to remember all the lines of all the variations of each opening? There have to be 10,000 at least
If I'd have the choice between understanding and memorizing I'd go for memorizing. ;)
'It doesn't really work against beginners because they don't make the right moves' haha, true
I need to ask one thing
Is 100 openings enough for a grandmaster?
Or do I need to Learn more
How many Openings do You know?
I started playing chess a couple of weeks ago I hadn't played in about 25 years. Im really not very good 😂. I can consistently beat Stockfish lv 2 but i get smashed by level 3 every game and im struggling to progress any further. I only play against computer as i dont have the confidence to play actual people online.
Welcome! Good luck with your chess journey. Here to help.
10:53 im dead💀
5:24 MORE HUMAN MOVE?!? dude me see bishop me attack bishop
❤❤❤❤

Now, how do we remember the four questions? :D
1. Plans 2. Posts 3. Pawns 4. Plays
Here is why I don't play the Scandinavian Defense, especially the Portuguese Variation [Analysis by "Stockfish 15.1, Chessis App"]:
1. e4 d5 2. exd5 Nf6 3. d4 Bg4 4. Bb5+ Nbd7 5. Be2 Bxe2 6. Qxe2 Nxd5 7. c4 N5f6 8. Nc3 e6 9. Nf3 Bb4 10. Bd2 O-O 11. O-O White is fine. Or...
4. Bb5+ c6 5. dxc6 Nxc6 6. Bxc6+ bxc6 7. Nf3 e6 8. O-O Be7 9. h3 Bh5 10. c4 c5 11. dxc5 Bxc5 12. Qe2 O-O White is better. Or...
4. Bb5+ c6 5. dxc6 Qa5+ 6. Nc3 Nxc6 7. Nf3 Ne4 8. a4 Nxc3 9. bxc3 Qxc3+ 10. Bd2 Bxf3 11. Bxc3 Bxd1 12. d5 Bxc2 13. dxc6 O-O-O 14. O-O Be4 15. cxb7+ Kxb7 16. Ba5 White is better. Or...
4. Bb5+ c6 5. dxc6 Bxd1? 6. c7+ Nc6 7. cxd8Q+ Rxd8 8. Bxc6+ bxc6 9. Kxd1 Rxd4+ 10. Nd2 White is winning.
Thanks much for this analysis! I'm hoping my opponent doesn't play like Stockfish!
@chessophiler I hope so, too. Sooner or later, though, your opponents will find better replies to your opening prep.
why is it the best move d4 on the beggining of the video and not some minorr piece development? i am superr low elo learrner btw
just because 2x pawns are usually bad and it doenst atack the knight if he takes
Memorizing openings is good until your opponent goes off the script
If they’ve strayed from theory, they’ve played an inferior move- that’s a good thing.
Just use Anki
How do you even make money from your courses when you keep uploading gold like this?
Shhhhhh
I lose all respect for my opponent when they play the Sacandinavian
Hahahahaha! "Why do we even play chess"? ... because adulting isn't hard enough
i miss your cat
I don't really remember opening. I just play what feels the best
I am going to hit 2000
