  • I'd prefer if you flipped the board when you are playing Black. Thanks for the videos!

  • @langengro I agree with you and thanks for your comment!

  • Cool table! I have a issue though. To me it feels like alot of the analysis, which you do very well, is lost due to the speed of these recent videos. It would be better and more relaxing if you made longer ones and simply split em in 2 parts. That's just me, and I still enjoy watching!

  • YouTube limits videos to 10 minutes, and I think it's better if videos are not cut in two parts. It's best if you pause or watch it twice, that will help your chess progress. In my DVD's I go slower since there is no time limit.

  • Another entertaining and instructive video, Alexandra. Thanks!

    Your exchange sacrifice at the end really proves the superiority of your bishop! I appreciate your repeated emphasis on the importance of knights in blitz. It's been helpful for me to remember!

    I was wondering, what do you think are the chances for an intermediate to achieve expert or national master status? I'm 27 and started chess about five years ago. I'm rated ~1700 now. How much time must I dedicate to achieve master level?

  • @MavPlaysChess It's very possible to reach a national master level around 2200 ELO with hard work. By hard work I mean daily at least 4 hours daily, playing tournaments, reviewing games, studying chess books. Having a chess coach helps. Good luck!
