Learn more about the Caro-Kann, as stated on wiki:
The Caro-Kann Defence is a chess opening characterized by the moves:
1. e4 c6
The Caro-Kann is a common defence against the King's Pawn Opening. It is classified as a Semi-Open Game, like the Sicilian Defence and French Defence, although it is thought to be more solid and less dynamic than either of those openings. It often leads to good endgames for Black, who has the better pawn structure. It allows Black to circumvent enormous bodies of theory in 1.e4 openings such as the Ruy Lopez and the Sicilian Defence.
Unlike its sister opening, the French Defence, the Caro-Kann does not hinder the development of Black's light-squared bishop. However, it comes at the cost of a tempo because Black has to play 1...c6 before pushing the pawn to c5, whereas Black can push c7-c5 in one move in the French Defence. White can combat the Caro-Kann in several different ways, often gaining a space advantage; additionally, Black has less mobility and can lag in development.
In the 21st century, grandmasters Vladislav Artemiev and Alireza Firouzja use the opening with regularity, while Ding Liren and Hikaru Nakamura use it on occasion.

This is my favorite variation. Thank you!
I prefer your recommendation than others I watched. Thanks
la qualité de ton contenu est incroyable, merci infiniment ! 🚀
My final words: I will now be able to play the Caro Kann on a good level and I appreciate that. You're very good at explaining which makes your videos easily understandable. The only issue I have is that the Masterclass is too short in my opinion. To fully understand the concepts and dominate with the Caro-Kann you should know a few more (pretty rare I gotta admit) sidelines such as the Tal Variation, The Beyer Variation, The Accelerated Panov etc. These 3 variations you'll likely encounter occasionally and then it's good to be prepared. However despite my criticism I wanna put my emphasis on the way you're presenting this kind of content and your creativity such as coming up with your own ideas and presenting them to us. Overall I'll rate this series 10/10 and do recommend it.

Not anytime soon. Tbh, I used to play London, but I have not in recent years, but also, there is already SO much content on London, it might become repetitive on youtube.
👏👏👏🔥

It is really amazing, Professor. You excelled in explaining. It made me very happy. I hope that we will communicate in the field of chess to benefit from you. I watched your videos, they were very wonderful
Thaaaank you
Btw some of these positions actually transpose into a Grunfield
Well explained, thanks! On 8:30, tho what if white responds with Ng5? That looks like trouble. What would be the game plan then?
Can you pls cover the Goldman variation aginst CaroK for completion. Thks
the king is castled on the left so while fianchetoing bishop towards right?
Hi i used to play the Pirc and decided to look for a better repertoire…just finished the caro and loved it it’s very solid but noticed u also have the dragon course…which one do you recommend !
@ChessGeek1

They are fundamentally different. Caro is solid and safe. Dragon is aggressive and risky. It depends on your playing style, and what you want to achieve as black (are you okay with draw, or do you want the larger chance to win even at the risk of losing)

@@ChessGeek1 well i think dragon is the better cousin of the pirc…and since i really enjoyed your master class on the caro i believe it’s wise to chose being solid… specially for someone low rated like me struggling with calculations…have you considered coaching or playing against subscribers (like most streamers)?
