  • Nice game and very instructive analysis, thanks Nigel!

  • Interesting game. Thank you for the instructive video. After a lifetime of 1d4 2c4, I'm one of those old ppl looking for something like 1g3 where experience counts more than memorization. Tried the London and Trompowski, and I think I'll give 1g3 a test drive. Thanks for uploading this.

  • @ECCLESCHESSCLUB Nowadays, I would asked my opponent why he played this or that - no matter what the strength of my opponent, just to understand! Anyway, I've been celebrating after my return to chess has brought good results, I beat Mike Surtees the other day ;) I asked him why he played this and that and he spilled his secrets, I think this should be what chess players should do, as you'll be surprised at how much you can learn from opponents!

  • Nigel is right, that Bishop to d8 and knight to e8 are very strange sequence of moves. I really would like to know what Martin's opponent was thinking when he/she play them? What caused him to play it because they must be positional blunders. It disconnects the rooks, which nice, for white; it also stops them getting the open files and half ones! It kinda looks like 960 chess!!!

    Maybe the knight on e8 is trying to hold the square d6? But making concessions!!! Black is cramped!!!
