The Chess Giant, an accomplished Hippo player in his own right, posted a game(11/10) at YT between Hikaru and Hanson, both master Hippo players-learn. Both Hansen and CG have Hippo playlists.
i love this kind of content. it's fun to watch and very educative. Thanks!
Thank you Jonatan 👍
f5 !! it is then Mio! Love your channel. Puts the joy and excitement back in out royal game! Blessings.
Blessings bro! 👍
Thank you so much for this amazing material.
Lovely stuff, thanks!
And watch the Ads! Money for Big Mio. Good stuff sir. I like to play Hippo sometimes when I don't feel like dealing with theory.
Loved the f-pawn concept!
Great Video man! Always had problems against the hippo, keep up the good work👍
This video came at the right time! Always facing annoying systems like this (although I rarely get the hippo to be honest), but I can't wait till someone plays this against me. Thanks for the analysis as always Mio.
this channel deserves more subs and views
🤷♂️
I haven't seen much theory produced on solid pet openings like the hippo. As always a very interesting lecture, but in this case very unique as well. I'll definitely be adding this to my opening preparation.
There are a few books about the Hippo. The first one is by Andrew Martin (and he has a bad video about it) written a long time ago. Recently an Italian IM, Dalessio, wrote about it and there is a chapter about it in Tiger's Modern.
That was incredible analysis, Mio. I have never seen someone pick apart the hippo so thoroughly.
perfect timing thanks
Enjoyed this video very much some nice interesting plays
sorry this is not the set up for Hippo defense!
we develop the bishop on c8 to b7 very late or he stays on c8 and helps with a king attack along the diagonal c8 h3
1.e4 g6 2.d4 Bg7 3.Nc3 d6 4.f4! the Austrian Attack c6 simplest solution 5.Nf3 d5 tempo less but good enough 6.e5 Bg4 7.Be2 e6 equal position also good 4...e6 5.Nf3 Ne7 6.Bd3 Nd7 7.Be3 a6 8.O-O c5! or 7. O-O O-O 8.Be3 Nf6 9.e5 Nfd5 10.Nxd5 Nxd5 11.Qd2 b612.Be4Nxe313.Qxe3 Rb8 or 8. f5 exf5 9.exf5 Nf610.fxg6 fxg611.Bg5 h6
Take a look how Leela crush his oppenent with the Hippo defence!

But Mio with another great Video!! Bravo!! 👏👏👍👍
Thanks man, good point!
Big mio is the best ❤
Mio has the best content on the web!!
Great analysis as usual coach!
Thank you so much my dear friend 👍
Thank you very much
Thank you very much for the great idea i often have hard time against hippo!
No Hippo player plays the opening as you present the system here. Maybe, you should challenge Hikaru to show off your anti-Hippo skills.
@@BeFourCMYour comments apply to such players who would have the same problems no matter what opening they would choose to play.
@michaelallport5816 Or, perhaps even better, you should challenge Big Mio to show off your Hippo skills?
Beg to differ, this is a very common way people in jail play it. Every guy I met from prison plays exactly like that
@@larrybutler9203 That’s why they’re in prison…
Agree dude!
I may never play the Hippo again. Please, take this down before it gets more views!
The hippo is an easy punishable opening. Anyone with good opening principles will have a much better position after 10 moves or so. It's just that people become impatient and rush things with pawn pushes and the position closes which is what hippo players want (aka annoy their opponents). I used to play it for a couple of months but i didn't like my cramped and closes positions and my lack of middle game plans.
@@billagap3213 Hippo not that bad if you know your stuff, definitly not top tier for black but you can equalize easily if your opponent doesn't go for Mio line
@@monstermagnet3150 yeah i know unless you play this critical line (which some people may play by accident) hippo is fine. But i believe you should have good knowledge of pawn breaks when you play the hippo otherwise you won't open your positions.
Big Mio!!! Where you been sir? Always a good upload from you.
I am back! Lots of obligations lately 🤷♂️
you are awesome
I always play hippo for white and black
F5 our hero
Big hero! 🥷
When you play the hippo with g6 you don’t show it by playing b6 on move 3 instead you play d6 Nbd7 then go for b6 😊
I agree, but same approach, as long as he has e6 and g6 break with f5!
Interesting, i found another anti hippo that is kinda structured like tge bayonet attack breaking with the c pawn
Hippo can only be broken in two ways. C5 n F5 pawn breaks... We watch out for that.. N then our dear hippo remains solid n strong! 😂
Great stuff, but how do you combine this with a good line vs Owen's Defence? Owens and the Hippo crop up way too often at club level!
5:09 Bb5 is prevented by a6. That diagonal is further defended by …b5.
Thank you very much for that most instructive video - One follow-up question - What strategy is best used against the Hippo setup, for players that begin the game with either 1.c4 or 1.Nf3?
To be honest with you, I am not sure if they could do it because Reti players don’t have problems with Hippo setups
Hi Miodrag - thanks for this great video. I love the breaking with f5 plan. There are a couple of issues I'm facing: one where they play ...f5 themselves first. So at minute 10 of this video where you castle before playing f5, can black get ...f5 in themselves before they castle? The second issue is if they delay ...b6 ... Bb7 and go with g6 Bg7 d6 e6 Ne7 - here f5 is difficult because the B is still on c8 guarding f5 - do we need a different approach in these cases or can we still use the same system?
We use it as long as we can!
Different approach in this case... U resign! The power of a solid hippo! 😊
I am a Dutch, KID + Hippo fan..❤
Hey man I am stuck in 1200 elo but my puzzle rating is 2100+ how to improve chess game i practice daily 😢
Analyse games of strong players and try to figure out their ideas! Preferably analyze games of Kasparov and these top guys from Simuls because you can see how he punishes mistakes when someone plays weaker…
Sequenza migliore per nero è b6 Ab7 g6 e f5
*Butcher/Kill* the *Hippo* with the advancing *Bird Attack* or 3/4 Austrian attack (the normal Austrian Attack involves pawns on c4,d4,e4,f4 against the Pirc/Modern Defence).
Excellent video.
Thanks buddy 👏
@@MiodragPerunovicOfficial Best Regards Big Mio. Take care man.
But what if the opponent sacrifices his queen on f2, how can you break his position then?
Amazingly explained, thanks! Watching your videos I have the impression that Zelenski is talking to me, explaining how you are going to win the war ;) Keep it up buddy!
Thanks 🙏
nlce to be back master..
RIP Chessbrah Hippo Speedrun 😂💀
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust… 🪦
Please master make a video playing against Nf6 Alekhein
Find on the channel, you have three different videos!!! Go, search and pick the right one!
Greetings from South Africa! Thanks for this very instructional video. After Caro (e4) & Queens Indian Defense (d4), Hippo was my opening against everything else. I hope I can find a counter against this, otherwise it's RIP Hippo & searching for a new universal 3rd choice opening for Black.
If anyone can give an old bloke an idea for a universal black opening against everything from White except e4 & d4, I would greatly appreciate it!
RIP Hippo 🪦
KID vs anything but e4 or Tango for Black…
@@MiodragPerunovicOfficial Thank you sir. The BK Tango is something I will seriously look into learning
Dont worry bro.. Hippo is dangerous! 😂
I play my hippo as black..n then push my F5!! ❤ n nobody can then touch my hippo triangle.. 😊😂😂😂😊
PS. My refutation for this Anti-hippo line.. Boom! 😂😂😂
Hey Mio, are you gonna release courses for black as well?
White has so many exciting iptions and i love your courses, but with black especially against D4 we all struggle.
I have to do something interesting 🧐
@@MiodragPerunovicOfficial please let me know 😭❤️❤️💖
How to break the white hippo?
With some f4!
wow that's convinient.. no one plays hippo that badly
I play my hippo as black..n then push my F5!! ❤ n nobody can then touch my hippo triangle.. 😊😂😂😂😊
PS. My refutation for this Anti-hippo line.. Boom! 😂😂😂
I'd tell my friends about this channel, but I have none. Sorry.
Hey, do you brake it with f5, thought I heard you say that. haha
Always 😀
cool, now i can beat hikaru easily
😂
after 7. Bxf7 the egine tells me that it goes from +1.3 to 0
I also believe it isn’t the best line for white, but interesting as an idea
If someone plays the hippo against me, I will still use it since they probably won't know how to respond effectively.
Nc❤
Massive amount of content in one vid as usual.
Please have the mic further back. Wen you lean forward it suddenly gets much louder.
Massive amount- should I take that as a compliment or criticism?
@@MiodragPerunovicOfficial Definitely a complement! Each of your vids leaves me with days of follow on work to analyse and practice your attacks.
@@lastcraft 👍, thanks!
I'm very sure that's not how u play hippo ma guy. This scenario only work on someone who doesn't know how to open in correct sequences.
Good to know how bad it can get anyway if u don't know the weakness when open wrongly
The problem is that you are not presenting the hippo defense well. Try to be honest.
Ok, you won 👍
Toi même tu ne connais rien dans l'hippo. Quand l'adversaire joue f4. On transpose dans un semi-hippo
Merci beaucoup, heureusement tu es très intelligent et tu en sais beaucoup 🤭😂
Merci de complimenter cette vidéo. Ca lui aide beaucoup! Si seulement il y avait plus de gens comme ca 🤗
Quand l'adversaire est prêt à jouer f4 . Nous même nous jouons f4. Celà s'appelle l'attaque autrichienne. On montre le contre dans tous lire de l'hippo.
@@sethwissen5303 Je pense que tu veux dire f5
Ça parait en effet raisonnable, mais tu pourrais te montrer plus poli quand même, le gars est 2300 elo
@@sethwissen5303 After f5 you have a Bad position too after e5. I think you are simply bad at chess
Why do you speak like Zelensky but with no coke?
