    It's perfect for a blitz game. Having to win an 80 move game under time control is very difficult and if he understands the closed position, he's almost unbeatable.

    This is because closed positions only happens if both play closed, which is not very often. If any of the players want to open the game from the begining and start trading pawns the closed game is over.

    It doesn't really have many lines, the opening almost always transposes to some opening with the King's Bishop fianchetto. Its main difference is that Black can play any way he wants on the center, so from strong players it basically translates to "go ahead, pick an opening. Any opening. I know them all."

    This channel is extraordinary, the drama illustrates the chess well enough that as bystander I get feeling of being into it even though I haven't really played since my teens [=~2*y2k - now]. Also, it makes me see playing chess as attracting players to a virtue I hadn't seen in chess, but that I sought in usenet news around y2k: the benefit of learning what neither knows beforehand by side effect of sharing a disciplined dispute with persistence. There's a bizarre coexistence/competition between the reward of winning a game and the reward to learn the lesson of an original game. What do chess players say to greet? Elo.

    I get the feeling if you had given that game more concentration, you could have won it! Not so much near the end, as It was already over 12 moves from the last, but as he was making that opening. Of course it might not have been so entertaining, but I really wanted you to beat him!

    This chess thing is fascinating. Maybe I'll learn how to play just for giggles.
