  • where be part 2 at

  • @AlanWattParrot  Thanks

  • @haine920 PROPHYLACTIC

    — adjective

    2. protective or preventive

    via French from Greek prophulaktikos, from prophulassein to guard by taking advance measures

  • At 4:27 , anyone can explain me the signification of this word please ? It is PROFILAXY .

  • hey you should label them part 1 and 2 in the title makes it easier! Nice vids!

  • Instead of Qd3...Nf4; Qf1, defending the pawn on h3; Does Nc3...Nf4; Rg3...Ne2; *Rg2... (*not Rg3-f3 with an eventual ...Ne2...Nd4 Knight-forking the Queen and Rook.) White appears to stave off the Knight attack against his endangered Queen and position momentarily, with the b2 pawn available in defending the c3 square. Would this help White? I didn't use Rybka, to think for myself. This is a crucial move! Other var. possible. Curious as to opinions on my ideas, and thoughts on other variations

  • whats a caveman attack? xD

  • Siepre mi favorito.. El buen Topalov. Players d4..

  • carlsen won this whole tournament and was 5/5 with white

  • Very nice commenting. Maybe I will post my own game against Carlsen here as a response, it's one of the best games I've played.
