Yeah I really enjoy his content and comments in general I mean if he wouldn't have decided to be a chess player, teaching would have been a nice fit for him as well

1400 rated, I see the hillbilly all the time. Just started your London Course, can't wait to do the Caro course when it comes out. Then we just need a course for black against D4 and we are ready to become GMs.

Play the Slav against d4 since it works against almost all variations. It is just as solid and boring as the Caro Kann (which is a good thing). I think Alex plays the Slav so maybe one day he will do a course on it.

Bro you had me dead with that texting your crush line😂 keep up the great content

I don’t always watch a YT video from start to finish, but when I do it’s because it’s one of Alex’s super instructive videos.

Best chess teacher on KZread. Top content. Bit of a philosopher/comedian as well. Seems you're gradually turning into the David Brent of the chess world :-)

took me some days to find this video but once i found it....i can only say one thing. I fucking love this guy

Back at it with the jokes and caro kann ❤ can’t go wrong at this point

that fakeout resign-mate at 10:56 was brutal

"Sending her a di*k pick." 😂 I am going to be thinking about this when I play aggressively.

Thank you for the whole Caro Kann rating climb series. Yesterday I got my first Pawn Cube. I thought I was going to flag, but once I got the pawn cube I decided that there was no way I was going to lose. I started playing fast, got agressive with the queen battery which he handled incorrectly, took all the pieces and managed a mate in the middle of the board. The game was not even close to flawless... but getting to load a queen battery, successfully use a rook sac, and rally to win because of the inspirational pawn cube will make this one of my most memorable games. This series has been the single most instructive bit of chess content for me since i took it up seriously this fall. Keep it up. PS I would love to see a longer vienna rating climb playlist.

Thanks for another great informative video! You make this game look a lot easier than it is. Maybe I just make it difficult. 😂 I look forward to the next! 👊

The ol’ grab the last pickle trick… 😂

OMG. Can't believe what I heard @2:25. (lol) But it's a good comparison nonetheless.

You are the best chess youtuber on the platform for learning, also you are a beast at chess which I guess helps in what you are doing

Very instructive! And how can you not love this guy's dry sense of humor!???

Hey Alex, thank you for your awesome content. Is there a panov-botvinnik video of yours by any chance? Or will there be one ? I feel like that gets me out of my lovely caro-kann structure the most and I hate it. So hyped for your caro kann course on chessable in April. Keep that good stuff coming. Much love from germany

Thanks Alex, I now only play the Caro and Vienna. Greatly improved my chess, just waiting the other guy makes an error lol. Always relaxed watching your vids!

Great video, I think you and naroditsky are the best on youtube for learning.

Alex that feeling u get from obtaining that last pickle fom the jar is quite satisfying.I am glad u mentioned it.

Your videos are helping me a lot! Thanks!

Love your humor bro :D Keep up the good work!

congratulations on your first sponsorship .. you're making big strides towards stardom..

Love the humor! Chess instruction pretty good too. 😉

Glad you got a sponsorship, well deserved 👏

Thanks! I really enjoy your videos and have learned a lot of useful thinking and tactics for my game. As a bonus, you are very funny. I laugh out loud many times when listening to you. One more compliment, the most important one: your voice is pleasant to listen to, please keep it that way, that Gothamchess is too shouty for my liking 😅 ❤ to both of you and all fabulous chess streamers out there. Thank you😊

Hey, I've been loving your content and really love learning how to play against these weird openings. Can you also play some higher-rated opponents(more than 1500), thanks for the content!!

Alex is my go to for caro instruction.

Thanks for the video. Hope you face the 2 Knights attack sometimes . Should be one of the toplines against the caro kann

Awesome content. When is your caro-kann chessable course coming up?

Man the rook analogy had me in tears, awesome video as always

I “liked” the video when you gave the useful information not to go queen d7 @16:17 😂 Love your jokes Alex 👏

'Well spotted Einstein' - LOL - hilarious stuff from Alex , my fav chess teacher!

Alex really tryna beaf with Levy lmao I love it haha , great content as well

Dude. You are hilarious. I love your videos. The guy who angrily took your rook then resigned 😂

The texting your crush analogy was excellent. Love your videos Sir!

ur my fav chess youtuber thank you bro I love ur vids

Glad you let us in on the GM secret that Knights move backwords. My games will never be the same going forward! 😆

This was different hahaha. Love the humor!

Thnx for the video..waiting for caro cann video against above 1500 content too..

Goat of chess KZread gonna blow up soon for sure

Thanks!

lol you got me at 2:24 . subscribed

I hope to play like you soon😂😂😂😂nice Video 🎉

Absolutely binging through your videos like it's a Netflix series! 😅

@11:17 Back in the 1970s in OTB, I would slam a piece and slap the clock when I realized I would lose. I just wanted them to have some juice.

IM Banzea: "GM secret? Knights can move backward." I just raised up to 850 blitz. Thanks my friend! :)

Absolutely the funniest chess KZreadr out there.

at 8:40 if you go Qd7 you can long castle and protect that lowly pawn with your royalty. It just seems like the nice thing to do. Pay it forward to the pawn community. You don’t want them to get mad and suddenly turn around

His chess to girl analogy are golden 😂 keep going love it

Just finished a jar of pickles. Ecstatic right now

Whoever makes your thumbnails must be a legend

I can't wait for your caro course,the last pickle in the jar indeed sir...

nice advice

What is suggested for the hillbilly attack if both pawns are taken in the beginning of the opening???

I like how you put levy in the thumbnail lol

When arrives the chessabel course on caro kann? It ist incredible

damn, I'm hooked

You are an excellent and most entertaining teacher vărul Alex. But here is my question on your beloved Caro-Kann. When your opponent brings out the Queen to h5 on move two, what are the best strategies to punish the D-pic?

Ahh my favorite chess KZreadr just uploaded a new video :)

You a great teacher

Awesome 🎉❤

I’m really enjoying your videos.. I have recently gotten back into chess after many years… how do students contact you?

How can we beta test your Caro-Kann course. I want you to follow up with a Slav course. Thanks

Hei, faci o treaba excelenta ca de obicei:)

Best chess content on KZread.

where can I find Tanya Femboy mentioned at 26:30?

i think comparing early e5 with sending a dick pick is a really solid comparison. made me laugh out loud tbh. nice vid mate

38:43 A wooden shield created with a rook, almost like a pawn diamond with a rook in the middle, best tip for the opponent was to resign probably once they saw this powerful formation :)

I was going to purchase the course but idk the specifics between the video (149) vs (29) ? Can anyone explain please? I just assumed it was a video course?

@IM Alex Banzea did you remove this video? I wasn’t finished watching it and I can’t find it anymore? 13:50

Around 9:35 or so, you used a tempo to chase WHT's Knight to a BETTER position, Just take the pawn. WHT will have no compensation and no center pawns. If you chase his N back to f3 after taking the pawn, then you can exchange knights.

Notice how the guy sacked it for a pawn because that was the most value he could get for his trapped knight. But feel free to release a chess course bro

I have a question, isnt your account a diamond sub? why the engine using stockfish 11? is it just better not to rely on the engine? Great video btw

Yes. Looking for more videos like this. Punishing odd opening stuff you know is junk

At 18:22, if you played e5, WHT could not develop his knight to either f3 OR e2 either!

Ey you nice with it Lol tho! had me rolling

28:12 what about c4/b5 for black?

you're awesome!

2:44 re 2 e5 .... I know this isn't solid but it is my main line in bullet against the Caro (and almost anything else). There is one critical line if you look at it with the computer where white is struggling.... but it's extremely rare I get an opponent who plays it... and if they do I've probably looked at it more than they have. Most of the time I end up getting some sort enpassant takes and a nice d4 c4 center. I definitely wouldn't play it in longer games though.... which means I need to learn some 'real' openings. : (

I ordered your course, you are great, the chessable web page and the format on navigation is some what to be desired. Or I am an idiot and do not know how to run or go about the web hosting page.

Thanks a lot sir. It’s more intuitive if you are using it for the book format. There are a few tutorials out there, but will help!

20:07 1.----P×P is what kind of move? Parity suck to the pushover square making white line sick, face-off X-ray from the free power point.

We take and resign cuz we like taking pieces in general, also u don't have enough time to take back cuz we resign faster... I used to do this

this is very useful now i realized what is my wrong

Alex, why in the first game at 4:36 you played first cxd, and then Bg5? The pawn on c3 obstructs the Knight on b1 from its natural development. Could you please explain this to me? Thank you so much.

41:32 Blk knight under attack. Blk moves R-c2; if P× N then R×R, if R×R then rook is captured by the knight---fleeing his attacker just in time. The Cappablanca Dodge.

More caro plz

Im definitely doing that rook resignation from now on lol

The GM secret was very useful

At 15:08 what if Qxb7?

Your clock gives me so much anxiety! haha
