Please do a speedrun of Queens Gambit showing how you would react to other lines like qga, benoni, grunfeld etc

totally or better a chessable course

The longer time control was great! Allows us to hear a more full thought process into each phase of the game

QG is part of my main repertoire! Thank you so much for this Big Daddy Alex.

GG as well.

My favorite KZread creator, always super happy when you drop a new video, Alex.

Best chess channel, the other chess channels don't play and show at the same time which is the best way to learn. They just go through a bunch of random scenarios while you explain what the point of the opening is showing a real example

This is the best formatted chess video ive seen. Love the live games and the variations playing on the side is chefs kiss

Great upload king, always happy to watch your instructive stuff.

Please do more queen’s gambit videos! This video was amazing!

Thanks, Alex! Been waiting for it for a long time❤

Finally! Been waiting for a new QG Alex video! Great timing!

I'll be the happiest when your channel blows up and gets the recognition it deserves. Love from India 🇮🇳

Love this tipe of games. I also prefer the 10 mins games instead of 5, because you can explain your ideas deeper and try to be as precise as posible.

ty so much for mainly using the openings I use lol, goated presentations and you take your time speaking of each move the opponent makes. ty ty ty

now we are talking!! Alex please make up a follow video of Queen's Gambit

love your rating climbs playing jobava and caro kann they have been so helpful thank you!

it was really intersting to follow a slow game quite equal and see the conversion ! Definitely adding this to my repertory

Wow. Thanks a lot Alex, I'm grateful for this vid. Another repertoire collection for white.

The problem with queen's gambit or any other gambit is we prepare repertoire that may or may not be happen. Coz we depend on the opponent take the gambit

Loved your videos on Caro Kann. Hope to see more of Queen’s gambit.

More of these please, it's great!

I just discovered your channel and really learned a lot from this video. Keep it up!

The first opponent put up one hell of a fight

Omg my anxiety on that first game. 😅 Just found your channel and love your lessons. It helps me so much to get into the right mindset and to ask myself the right questions when playing. Thank you 😊

Great, thank you and have a nice day, Alex!

Thank You for sharing your knowledge! When a teacher shares their own growth, every student is nourished.

Another banger from Alex!

Thank you so much ❤

Damn, the first endgame looked so hard to me. It really shows the difference between a master and common players

Love how the first game went through a full endgame. Qc7 to stop the perpetual was a completely new idea. 1.d4 2.c4 is my main opening as white. I’d love to see more of these!

U are my favorite KZreadr i watched all of ur videos.❤❤

the amount of sarcasm in this video is amazing xD

loved the Fake Taxi reference lol

Thank you very much! Quenns Gambit Variations would be very interesting and more about the Scotch Gambit too.

When you played Qd4 my spider sense said something was fishy there. I'm not calling you out, just amazed I sensed that move was off, been watching many of your videos and starting to recognize some of these patterns. You are a great teacher.

WOW FINALLY YOU PLAY MY REPERTOIRE btw my other main repertoire is jobava london xD

That guy got some nerve explaining things while being only one second left to lose, and he still won that game. Fantastic👍🏻

Alright everybody, managed to get another Alex video, let’s see what he has in store with rapid time controls. I cracked 800 in rapid and blitz thanks to your videos, you will always command my undivided attention

excellent keep going bro

Queen's Gambit, yay!

i was stuck on 1200 forever but after watching your jobava, i am finally 1300

A man of culture I see

great video

Amazing video!! How is this free.. So vs d5 and Nf6 taking is even better cause after Nx we have e4? Whats the plan vs Kings Indian and c5/benoni stuff?

2:20 🤣🤣 fake taxi line

Would love to see a video on 1.b3 Nimzo-Larsen Attack

btw alex, thank you for more 1500 elo content, its very helpful for me :)

nice video alex, we also need QGD from black side

Going from dopamine fueled opening of Jobava to this is is like coming home from a nice vacation and going back to work 😂

I am excited for more QG videos,

You just prove your point, arguement is over, everybody is certainly not happy. You got a lot to learn about women Alex..

King's Indian defense and KIA coach I've really missed ur recent video about kings indian opening

I would love to see the Sicilian (Dragon?) opening if you are taking recommendations.

@2:11 the beginner trap in the QGA, not that it will help him much, but Black CAN save his rook with 6...Nc6 7.Qxc6+ Bd7

great stuff, i play this but switched to jobava cus of you. good stuff anyway. can you make a video of your games with levy?

i enjoyed this video

Mom, Alex just started teaching a new opening

I love playing against the queens gambit with the Slav. I almost never lose and sometimes I win. depending on what white does, you can just play a london type structure but as black.

Do the Italian opening!

Fascinating seeing QG games! I only play QG as black!

Will this be a series similar to the karo and Vienna openings?

I am very happy doing what weird Romainian dood tells me to do! Also like how this is so similar to the Karo... QG rating climb???

Alex is here I am here I am Happy, algorithm is happy Thats a good day😂

now we are talking!! Alex please make up a follow video Queen's Gambit

this or jobava london would you recommend? and how can i turn it into catalan if he doesnt capture?

@AlexBanzea

7 ай бұрын

Personally I recommend jobava London. Catalan was 3.Nf3 followed by g3

I spend all this time and money on relationship therapy when all I truly needed was Alex to tell me the woman was just trying to play G5 on me this whole time. Thank you!

No need to beat yourself up over the endgame. Time pressure is always an issue when trying to be instructive and you still explained the proper technique after the game.

What do you think about Slavs defense? London and Caro are my go to but not sure what to play against a queens pawn opening. Slav seemed similar to Caro but what do I know :)

@onii-chan2811

7 ай бұрын

Slav easier to play for us Caro players

Is 3. nc3 and then 4. exd5 not better against the qgd? This prevents black from going Bf5 and trading the bishop that is normally weak?

@AlexBanzea

7 ай бұрын

That allows semi tarrasch

4:24 this is literally the jobava london without c pawn for white and e pawn for black lmao. Waiting for the King's Indian Defense video, my biggest weaknesses are facing d4, c4, Nf3

@@AlexBanzea QG definitely good choice for a series of videos. I'm still going to be an e4 player but QG is a very interesting opening. Maybe I'll finally understand what the word positional means.

Another great lesson from “The Weird Romanian Guy”. 😂

MORE MORE MORE! Give us at least 69 videos on QG :D

"Beth Harmon like..." Actually she only played the QG once, and her opponent replied with the Albin Counter Gambit. Maybe you can cover that variation at one point.

Are we heading towards a new speedrun series on queens gambit ...its coming

Finally!!!

wow i bought two courses and neither recommended the exchange what a waste i like this so much more specially that as a caro player i understand the plans of the middle game what a classic way to play i hope alex would consider a speed run for the qg or better a chessable course

Fake taxi line is crazy 😭

Whats the advantage of Queens Gambit over London?

@NdyRoo

7 ай бұрын

More transpositions and often harder to equalize against. Downside (also maybe a benefit) is you have to learn many more pawn structures and openings, and you’ll play a lot of very different middlegames.

crazyy

On the slav, your queen infiltration could have been defended with his queen on d7 ?

Hello, casual 700 here, I cant believe the first video started queens gambit, then ended up literally being caro for black, london for white

The weird Romanian guy has the most entertaining chess channel on KZread. Killer chess mixed with porn jokes for the win! 👍

ma bucur ca joci la 10 minute adica timp mai mult pt mine sa inteleg...

At 40:10 he says the "Armenian guy told you to do so." Is he Armenian?

99% win rate with an extra pawn... Currently has 2 extra pawns... hold my beer.
