Please check out Gaugamela Chess. You gonna like it. The setup is as following: krnnqbbr/pppppppp/pppp4/8/8/4PPPP/PPPPPPPP/RBBQNNRK/

I've studied chess theory, principles, strategies, and tactics...but when the clock starts, all I remember are the rules.

An interesting opening idea. I recall Lasker played an early e5 in his ninth game with Schlechter (1910 WCC), and did quite well. Capablanca mentioned how it’s not easy to get the backward pawn and essentially that it is a practically good move. @ 9:32 when White avoided continuing to fight for d5, it’s possible he considered his influence over the square binding enough to label the center as “closed,” and to allow him to play on the wing. However the “lifeline of the Sicilian,” the c file, gave enough play to Black to activate his pieces, and all the way through the rest of the game, the d pawn managed to survive. So his battle for the d5 square was a great success. Good day

Very nice game positional game with best analytical commentary 🎉❤

Soviet games from 46' to70' were full of innovations in the Sicilian which is why Fischer tried to avoid it his Match with Spassky. There were so many to notch players who spent massive amounts of time looking for new moves that the results were just like having a Deep Blue to use. Chess creativity was an area full of men eager to get to the bottom of positions so unlike today where the computer does the work for you. Thanks for the good show.

Absolutamente agree Mr. North. Its True.

Excellent

Boleslavsky was not the first with e5 concept, it was the genius Paulsen and later Nimzovitch; let give credit to the old masters

e4xd5 Qa5+ and Q×d5 in the line with the immediate Nd5 variation - couldn't resist.

@chesswisdom

Yes, the engine shows that Qa5+ is the best move, however, White plays Qd2, defending the d5 pawn. Eventually Black still wins a pawn (the c4 pawn - 13....Qa5+ 14.Qd2 Nb4 15.0-0 Qc5 16.c4 Qxc4 17.b3 Qb5 18.a4 Qb6), I just didn't show that long variation, and talked about the standard idea instead.

I'm sure his engagement will get better and that is not a bad thing, but that's not the goal of his videos from what I can see. For an educational analysis videos, 20-30 minutes is great and sometimes even more time may be needed. He shouldn't sacrifice that just to get more viewers. Some things need time.
