I've seen it and i found it very instructive! Explanations are clear and accurate, good job!

[zastrade]

Respect Miles :P

[narcissusgray]

Wrong, the word is Italian, not French.

Whats wrong with Pd5 at 7:02

[thedemonkid203]

1:38 funny point!!!!

[p1q0]

At 7:32 Qg5 f5 how about p*p en pessant? Doesn't that destroy black's position?

a6 isn't a completely atrocious opening, it just changes the move order somewhat from a normal queenside fiancetto and obviously loses the opportunity to kick a piece on b5 for tempo.

Karpov needs to push his opening advantage.

@skinnypi

He is showing potential other lines that the game might have followed, had Karpov or Miles chosen other routes.  In chess notation, it's usually written (...like this, in parentheses, with such descriptions inset into the...) 'main' course of the actual game moves, and analyses thereof.

wtf is going on

i have no clue how this game went

[skinnypi]

What the fuck is he doing. He keep changing the piece and he is hard to understand! This SUCK!

@ludvikaus "and fianchetto means "little wing". " Actually it means literally "little flank"
