As a Scotch player, I'm really curious what the proper response to Qh4 is. I don't think I've ever faced it, but it would be good to know before I do!
thank you i never understood the computer help with my games ,see if it improves ,have great day Gotham
i have watch your you tube real cool stuff i am 1400 an up
you should speak slow, and explain very slow
Is studying your games like this worth doing when you're basically a total beginner? I have not memorized any main lines or all of that. Just learning how to win against like 800 level players haha
Can anyone tell me how can i learn chess openings and basic chess ideas for free online?
Thank you. My uncle showed me how the pieces moved when I was 9 years old.(57 years ago) Since then, up to this last year. I thought I was really good. The internet has given me the opportunity to see how Wrong I have been. Even though I rarely come across someone better than me in person, I don't have any problem finding people who can and do regularly do School me.
Huh. But I still don’t know what to do?!
Thanks.
I love when the game report says “last book move” after my 1st move 😂
very thanks happy
Nice – a fun evening in prospect trying out openings explorer with a Five Guys meal beckons
i really dont know how im gonna learn and remember things that way…i guess its just a me thing :/
Do you still talk so fast in your courses?
I will never get used to hearing my name in chess videos, especially opening videos
here from cody ko ngl
Here from cody
Here after Cody ko
His eyes look little scary
I guess the only thing that was not answered here was "how to study the openings" meaning, should you read and memorize it , or just repeat the moves on board or if u wana practice certain opening where and how to do it ?! and so on…
I feel like openings are one of those things where u have to learn all of them and their variations in order to actually be able to use any of them. Because if u don’t, a lot of the times u will say to urself “Wait, ur not suppose to do that.” And then everything goes to shit.
At what rating would you say people graduate from just needing to stop blundering basic stuff, to really needing to study in order to grow? As a former scholastic coach, at what point did you start telling your students to do this?
I’m usually lost after pawn to E4.
How to study chess openings…. Watch GothamChess vids on YouTube!
Great stuff!! Great stuff!!
Great content thanks
On your phone in a dark room: go to 5:05, pause the video, and shake your phone around for a crazy illusion
Levy’s voice and tone occasionally goes all BEE GEESY . Notice??!!!
Winning percentage for moves of people my elo is arguably more important than GM games.
We need a way to go through the game explorer with the engine up at the same time!
KodiCo sent me here
i was thinking at exactly dutch defense when you were talking about setup openings versus non setup ones, and i put myself the question : could i play dutch defense as a setup? silly noob question probably. love your style.
just my opinion. after opening schemes, tips and tricks, yada yada yada, guess what follows : THE MIDDLEGAME, and middle game is most complicated, most beautiful part of chess in my , and others opinion, and there, you have to really play chess and with a plan. because whatever initiative or pawn plus or whatever you have out of the opening, you better not loseit while in middlegame and beyond ..ty for reading.
