  • so how long do you make with each move because it seems that you are thinking of a few moves ahead?

  • Some moves are easy and you don't have to think far ahead, but some require deep thought and the creation of a strategy, that's much harder.

  • Besides Fischer you are my favorite chess player of all time!!!

  • That's a nice compliment, thanks :-)

  • Stunning tactics!

    I appreciate the rapid commentary, since on YouTube, we have the convenience of pausing and rewinding and it allows you to go through many more of those beautiful variations.

    Thanks!!

  • Indeed, in fact I have to comment rapidly, as YouTube only allows videos of 10 minutes maximum, and I barely made it under 10 minutes for this one :-) Feel free to pause and rewind any time during playback. I'm glad you like my video, thanks for the feedback!

  • In English you should refer to the knight with IT and not with HE as it is not a person :) I'm learning russian and have the same problem reversed !

  • fantastic!!!

  • Thank you for your explanations. I realize now I only see 10% of what there is to seee in a game, and you just showed the "other" 90%. God bless you for this.

  • am glad i found this channel on my Recommended list ^_^ ... nice commenting too ... first time to hear "cute move" keep posting them :))

    I just began REALLY playing chess, am playing online and getting beaten up pretty badly, any advices for a begginner?

  • its only after 2 years im getting a flavour of posititonal play!!

  • What a bedroom voice you have and I really like it! Absolutely charming!

  • hello I though the fischer killed the dragon variation in his game against larson and it was not used in top rank chess. I see that i was wrong (see fischer . my 60 most memorable games,.
