These videos are a lot of fun to watch. It seems that you had fun too, playing through these games by strong old-time players, thinking about them, and publishing your thoughts here.

Absolutely! That was a really interesting position that I spent some time thinking about before checking what the engine had to say.

Great comprehensive lesson, lots of positions to evaluate, but important because many games have similar challenges.

The computer and Nimzowitsch agree here...a5 is more important than f5 because it helps to restrain the opponent's pawn majority. It would have been a no brainer for Nimzowitsch.

Outside of the tactical consideration b4 Bxb4 c5 I'm not sure that I understand the other aspects of this position like king safety. I'm a tactical player so I'm bound to find b4 but without that tactical shot I would have a very difficult time evaluating the original position. I was originally looking at Bd6 after the queen trade (never discussed). The pawn move f5 seemed very doubled edge so I'm not clear whether its better or worse for either side. I thought the black knight might be able to go to g6 but not much was said about the knight. e5 doesn't seem like a good outpost for the knight since it can be easily removed. If black finds 1...a5 then I'm not sure how white develops a strategic plan.

I thought that was a very instructional video. I wouldn't have seen the black King as being less safe than White's, because His pawn was there to block, but I was wrong. Amazing how a few pawn moves can transform a chessboard! I'll watch out for these opportunities in my games. Thanks.

Why 11. gxf3 and not 11. Bxf3? I am curious about that position.

And this way classical chess is wonderful because u take ur time not only make the move, u need to understand why that move is better. Sometimes u understand the position but not which move so u will play like the game thinking in is better no chang Queens maybe no is the best of the best moves then put Kh1 the king is hiper say and then is when u feel confortable to play b4- Black have the same position but put more weight in trying to get more activity but we see was better only be passive and try to prevents the plans of white. The plan of a5 is not hard because u see a lot thata when put yout N in b6 in similar pawn structure 3 vs 2 on the queen side.
