For advanced players, this is the right chanel - no repetition of what you already know, but going down to the real intresting questions. Reminds of what I heard about a good author: "he spares the reader the shame to think he is wiser than him". Great work!

this kind of content is perfect for people in the range of 1800+ love it. Thanks for the lecture mio!

Thank you! 👍

This is so good to learn about the ... g6 defense versus the Alapin. Thank you very much, MP.

Happy New Year. Wish you the best, Mio!

Mio mentioned Dorfman. I envy those who understood anything he wrote. I ordered once his video course "The Method in Chess Iossif Dorfman and Jan Gustafsson" and returned it two days later as his English is way too bad and in general simply not a good teacher. Gustafsson couldn't make it better as I was under the impression that he didn't understand his point(s) either.

Great video thanks

really great stuff, you are going to be my best youtuber master

Fantastic! TY

thanks for the opening prep assistance :)

Hi Mio, I just wanted to first say that I love your videos as they are perfect for my skill level (1700 FIDE) and I have certainly improved with your instruction. Funnily enough, I am a caro kann player (as I know you think the caro kann is boring lol) and I just wanted to let you know that even though I never face the alapin you actually transposed to a position in the panov botvinnik attack after 5.exd5! So even though I don't play this opening, I'm glad I looked at it and am happy for your recommendations that are certainly good for my chess.

13:20 they don't gotta go with exf6, f4 seems pretty scary

Glad to find a youtube chess channel that DOESN'T post opening tutorials with easily engine-refuted statements on like move 4. I'm not naming names but one person deleted my comment just because I pointed out their mistake edit: just wanted to say that actually the person I was talking about said the move was "fighting" which is actually correct, so it was rude of me to shit talk them

Great ideas to fight against the c3 line, thanks Mio!! 🙏👏👏👏 I always play d5 on move 2, but I will try g6 either, following your precious instructions ♟️♟️♟️ I consider Sveshnikov one of the most important names of the modern Chess on Sicilian theory, just like Najdorf. My best regards 👍👍👍🇧🇷🥂

Hello Mio, This video is fantastic. I love the way how you explain the ideas and the concepts. I just have a quick question about this. Is there ever a possibility that white will play Bxh6 in any of the e5 variations?

Great video one more time Mio!!! But, what about the line 1.e4 c5 2.c3 g6 3.d4 cxd4 4.cxd4 d5 5.exd5 Nf6 6.Bb5+. It looks dangerous for black after 6...Nbd7 7.Nc3 Bg7 8.d6! Do you have any recommendation? Thank you again for your Sicilian Defence Saga for black

Another nice video. But (and I guess I am showing my level here) at 11mins 14, surely the queen can just grab the pawn on c3?

hi ..speciall thanks for you ..because all your videoes about good lessons in chess and i had many problems ..that after these videoes to think will never repeet again !!! i enjoyed of (( play against Smith mora Gambit )) ..and now the points about Alapin that i have a little problems ...and ..thanks again .

Hey Mio great content. Whats the response for e4 c5, Nf3 Nc6, c3 ? Thanks

Thanks for this. It seems to be important not to hurry with e6 in the variant where white played e5. Otherwise white will have Kb5 ... Kd6.

Good point 👍

I video on Staunton gambit

I often play the Alapin as both White and Black. I'm not convinced this line is objectively stronger for Black than the standard 2...d5 or Nf6 but it has the great advantage of posing new problems for White, who is unlikely to be familiar with it. I think I've encountered it as White twice in hundreds of games, and I'm sure I misplayed it, so I'm definitely going to start using it as Black. My guess is that best play for both sides is the position at 17:48 after 1. e4 c5 2. c3 g6 3. d4 cxd4 4. cxd4 d5 5. e5 Nc6 6. Nc3 Bg7 7. Bb5 Nh6 8. h3 O-O 9. Nf3 f6 10. O-O fxe5. The 365Chess database has over 57,000 Alapins and this position has been reached only four times. The video's 11. exd5 may not be best. In those four games White continued 11. Bxc6 followed by 12 Nxe5 or 12 Bxh6 followed by Nxe5, resulting in three draws and one win for White, so Black is not exactly crushing here but White has to find a lot of moves along the way.

4:50 what happens after the intermezzo Bf7+ Ke7 Bg5+ Qd5? or something similar starting with the move Bf7+? Seems thing can get very complicated very fast.

Yes, what happens after Bf7+ Ke7, Bg5+ Nf6, Bxf6+ Kxf6, Qc3+ Kxf7, Qxh8.

You pack a lot of intelligent thinking into a short video! Yes, I needed to pause and replay. At 21.44, 11. ...Rf3 can be met by the clever 12. Bh6! says Stockfish. And 4. Nf3 offers a Smith-Morra Gambit, although ...g6 lines are OK here too, but preparation is essential. Good work!

Mio what if they play delayed alapin (Nf3 - c3) is there will be a conflict in move order or is it a completely independent system?

Completely different lines! They have nothing in common with regular Alapin!

13:15 I'm sorry, but why are saying that they have to take, when f4 is so powerful there? It makes me resistant to this line with 2.g6.

Is it me or does this g6 defense lead to some weaknesses for black? Pawn structure jacked, kingside weak and exposed, and rooks not coordinated in most lines. You can only hope for a queen trade because if white gets developed black will have a hard time. Many positions he said was even the engine did not agree. In fact, it had white winning.... especially after 5. e5

@@MiodragPerunovicOfficial I tried it and won after my opponent went e5. Computer had me winning by -5.6 when my opponent ran out of time. I assume he was as confused as I was when I saw this video for the first time 😆

its complicated for low rated players.especialy the e5 line...

I have a ton of prep already completed for 2... Nf6 but if this gets bested by an Alapin expert I will try this 2... g6 system next game vs him. It seems to me most white players who play Alapin are just lazy and looking for one-size-fits-all opening similar mindset to London even though it can be very serious and must still be respected.
