I noticed that too. Reminds me of when I was studying Judo, and a former Japanese Silver medalist came to Texas and gave a demonstration of various ways he could throw with a particular throw. He lined up the top ten or so players in Texas, and proceeded to go down the line in Randori (free sparing) and threw each player with the same throw within a few seconds... except for one guy, Bill who laid down flat on his back as soon as the match began. It would be like a Chess player saying "You're not going to beat me with the Pirc, because I'm going to resign before you move." Ramirez really makes Great videos.

I agree with mark because these things happen when we play pirc and I want to see how you think. How you execute an idea/tactic. Instead of 3 min if you can play 3/2 it will be great becasue with that you explain a lot more.

I really enjoyed the second game. I learned that players at that level are all-out attackers. I learned how to defend against a massive pawn storm by trading off the minor pieces and whittling down the pawns systematically. That was amazing! I loved how you had to scramble at the end, and even with the recognized blunders that you saw as you made them, you still pulled it off. Great chess! Thanks!

Took a while but I finally stumbled upon this channel / series. I’ve been learning this opening but had not yet seen many great videos on it. 👍 This is very helpful.

Loved this one too. I appreciate your showing when things don't go according to plan and we make a mistake. Still, if we stay cool, then our good set up will help us recover and even win. After seeing your video I played a game and that is what happened. I made a mistake but because the setup principles had been followed i could recover and in the end game fight I was ahead 2 passed pawns and could convert. Getting through the opening with equality or slight advantage is really a saviour. Your videos help that a lot. So, again thank you Robert.

Hey Robert, in the first game with the classical variation I've been tought to take on e4 whenever the white bishop develops early to c4. This is way you would end up with an early pawn attack forking knight and bishop in the center. In the game first game this would go like: 6: Bc4, Kxe4. 7: Kxe4, d5. 8: Bd3, d5xKe4... As far as I know this line equalizes quickly but I'm curious on your take. I haven't seen this line in any of your pirc-videos but I might have overlooked something. Thanks in advance, Anders

Hello! The main problem with it is that you will be exposed to many different openings. For example, white can play 1.e4, e5 and then 2.f4 (king's gambit). So, you have to be prepared for that and many other lines they can play vs 1..., e5 👍

Hello Adam! I am putting these lessons in a specific order because this is the teaching plan I have used with my students for years. I think it is best if the lessons are followed in order. I tell people to scan from # 1 and stop on the one title you feel like you could use some exposure to. Then continue from there in order. Lately lessons are getting a little longer, but the earlier ones are pretty short. Regarding the frequency, it is up to you. I think you guys would ideally follow a training plan such as the one from lesson # 102 and make watching these lesson another item. Maybe every other day or M, W , F.... it mainly depends on how much time you have for Chess every week. Hope this makes sense 🤓

I have a question... trying to play this. I got the short and sweet pirc course on chessable which runs you through the main 4-5 replies. I have tried a bunch of games just to get a feel for it and I struggle to get past the fact that white gets a free attack. Invariably I get to the end of the opening and white has 2-3 pieces attacking and tons of space. Is there a twist on this opening where you meet black in the middle more? Or should I stick to e4 e5 and just try to learn the stuff.

@NMRobertRamirez

3 жыл бұрын

Thank you, Alvin for your feedback and for your support to the channel. It's greatly appreciated! When it comes to anxiety, I have had some students who struggled with it and I can tell you this: - It will get better as you improve and have more control over your games. Part of your anxiety might be related to not having a plan or the ability to calculate accurately enough. As you start building your opening repertoire, you will know what to do at the beginning of every game and you will also have some guidelines to follow once you transition into the middlegame. Likewise, once your visualization and calculation skills improve, you will become more effective at attacking and you will also be able to anticipate your opponent's initiatives. - It might also be lack of practice. As you play more (specially rapids and blitz) you will feel more comfortable. I do not recommend to only play blitz, but it is good to do it from time to time. Even if we play a one-hour game, we might get into time pressure and we have to know how to handle such situations. - Lastly, I always tell my students to be aware and ask themselves what is it that their opponent is threatening? Is it necessary to do something desperate such as sacrificing a piece? If the answer is no, then take the time to think of a plan and do not see ghosts. Many times, we make our opponents stronger than what they really are. **Bottom line is that as you train more, you will inevitably get stronger and getting stronger will boost your confidence. Then, before you know it, your anxiety is there only until the moment you shake hands to start the game and then it dissapears. Also, as you make mistakes and experience stressful situations, you will know yourself better. It is all part of the process. My hands still sweat a little before I play a tournament game and the moment I do the first move, it is gone. Hope this answers your question, Alvin! If not, let me know and we can talk more about it 👍

I'm learning this and a beginner but once I've gotten to move 6 or 7 I feel like I'm just playing defense. Can you explain the method and idea of how to attack and put white on the defensive?

So many times I find myself wanting to do all important challenge into the center with my c pawn rather than my e pawn. Unless the e pawn is the obvious choice because of the position on the board, it seems pushing the c pawn allows my fiancettod dark Bishop so much more range, rather than my e pawn pushing and blocking that Bishop up on e5, or e5 remaining blocked after pawns are exchanged. I know it depends on so many factors, but generally speaking, am I wrong in starting to prefer to push with c rather than e? Thanks so much for your time!
