Thank you very much ... By: centercounter. on 14 Mar 12, 05:02:24 Thank you very much. I've heard people who are better at speaking, but I have always chosen to focus on the? content, although I freely admit (and am comfortable with) my technique is not optimal. The game is not as important as the lesson and concept, which is ver transferrable.
man, you are ... By: mostrolopo. on 13 Mar 12, 20:12:15 man, you are awesome. thanks for this video and for your knowledge. your public speaking is? just fine precisely because you know what you are doing and you are quite knowledgeable of chess. regards!
Thank? you much! By: centercounter. on 10 Dec 11, 05:13:44 Thank? you much!
I appreciate it!? By: centercounter. on 10 Dec 11, 05:13:32 I appreciate it!?
I have already ... By: centercounter. on 10 Dec 11, 05:12:53 I have already admitted on several of my videos that I am not a good public speaker and I apologize if I do not come across as one. The responses? I find most valuable are those that challenge the content from a chess perspective. Those, we can all learn from.

Great reply, thank ... By: Thomaxonal. on 28 Feb 12, 20:29:15 Great reply, thank you. Also nice analogy of? the internal database, I just happen to be working with databases atm :)
I guess I should ... By: centercounter. on 13 Feb 12, 04:28:08 I guess I should further elaborate. GM Lev Alburt famously said that if you can memorize 250 key positions, you could become a GM. Obviously, it is not that simple, but the concept is. There are specific positions chosen by GM Alburt (and others later by GM Ziatdinov) which you should learn, including the game it was played, in order to learn key themes. Different GMs? recommend different positions/games, but the key is in the diversity of the positions.
Thank you for the ... By: centercounter. on 13 Feb 12, 04:21:40 Thank you for the kind words. A great "eureka" moment as players is when we recognize and leverage positional opportunities from other games, ours, those of great players, and those of legend (perhaps urban legend, such as Gibaud-Lazard) and learn to build tactical opportunities from them. This is why you should study classical games (Alekhine, Morphy, Capablanca, Tal, Nimzovich, etc.) as well as modern? chess, so you can build your internal "database" of positions.
Thank you for going ... By: Thomaxonal. on 18 Jan 12, 00:21:25 Thank you for going into the tactic itself instead of just laying down the pattern. Understanding the very base of everything I think is what makes the master, however, I'm not a master so I could very well be wrong. Nice? video.
cool? video man By: colourwins. on 21 Feb 10, 17:56:48 cool? video man
Thank you! As with ... By: centercounter. on 10 Feb 10, 12:36:59 Thank you! As with just? about all tactics, it wasn't original - just a recognized opportunity based on the works of others. More common (and more difficult to camouflage) examples are the well-known Bishop sacrifice themes on h7/h2 against a castled position.
that was a cool ... By: theoriginalanomaly. on 10 Feb 10, 07:41:42 that was a cool queen trap?
Unfortunately - after I input this game, my USB external HD lost connection and I did not have the opportunity to collect the moves. I called it the Mikenas variaion on the video, and it is actually a subvariation of the Symmetrical English.
