Thanks Bro, love from India❣️
We always use this trick 😁
2. c4 YOU RESIGN NOW
You don't play against D4.
You get developed first and find ways to
equalize in the center later.
Greetings Master Smirnov Henry writes to you from Spain, I have been on the YouTube channel in Spanish for years and I have bought several of your courses, almost all of them are great, years ago you sent me an autographed photo through your representatives in Spain, thank you very much for your work, with you I have learned to understand chess a little better and continue learning, I recently won first place in category B in an international championship in my city, that achievement is largely due to your teachings that have been given to me improve, you are the best chess teacher!!! admiration and respect, with affection Henry from Catalonia Spain
I hate the way you people castle, a king can't move two spaces.
How to win for white against black …1.d4..e5..: 2. e4..ptp (p takes p..3. qtp (q takes p). qk at f3..4.q at e1…. Also 1. D4..c3….. Thanks
I just want to say thanks for all of the great videos. I’m just starting with over the board tournaments and you content is helping me a lot. Your material is always relevant and you have a great teaching style.
A la Carlsen, also known as the Anti-Carlsen Opening
Great video.
Thanks man🙂
Thanks a lot👍👍
Unbelievable
Igor Smirnov you are russian?
Kalau bahasa indonesia
Thank you for this video
Thank you so much
There are a lot of information regarding chess on YouTube in terms of strategies, principles, openings. As a beginner in Chess where would be the best way to start the learning curve and how to take my gameplay to the new level the right way. I started a YouTube Chess project and i would like some quality perspective of people who has the knowledge to point me in the right direction. I would appreciate that a lot.
A very big thanks to you.Honestly,you are a very good teacher.Meanwhile,I have used your underrated video opening and your czech defence.It isvery solid and you can easily win.
Boring, explains impossible moves that even a beginner wouldn't make.
what application is good for screen recording?..when we make a video and will upload it to yt?
GM SMIRNOV- I am so curious where did you learn to speak English so well. You dont really have an accent its very internwtional in its sound. Makes me think maybe you had an English speaking parent/s or spoke English often at home or socially. Maybe you were born in an English speaking country. You speak so well i assume there is no way you learnt as an adult then mastered it. However if you did its unbelievable because the ease and level at which you speak tells me you probably learnt as a kid naturallyone of your first languages
Please tell me i am really curious.
It's NOT a Queen's Gambit until 2.c4…
Can you make a video about bongcloud opening? Ive been searching all over yt but got only little bit reference. Thx in advance
I've just found your channel, and this is my second video of yours. I've played d4 for 25 years. After the first video I watched I have high expectations. I'll leave a follow up comment after I've watched this video.
Mate that opening is brutal
Great video and channel. Do you plan on making another video for black when white goes for the Carslbad?
the best YouTuber ❤️🔥
What are your main openings as white & black? your favourite against e4? Many thanks 🙂
This video is nice, maybe not the best against d4 but quite good! Thanks
Thank you so much GM IGOR. I learned a lot and improve my technical knowledge of your video.
No, Fischer never played 1. P-Q4
After the king's Knight has been exchanged, white often gets the Queen behind the bishop to give check. It looks tactically pointless (wrong, even), but I find it really annoying when they do it. What should you do in this situation?
I play the slav as black. I thought everyone might be thrilled to know that!!
Hello, Igor! What if white undermine black's pawns with e4, not b3 ?
Perfect! Thank you Master.
Your videos are very helpful. Because of you, I believe my chess game is improving. I watch your video, I take notes, and I practice your tactics. Thank you.
England gambit is best
19% WIN? 62% DRAW
Thanks
Thank you for the lesson, it is great and very clear about the possible Queens gambit scenarios !
