  1. There is only one principle: always make the best move.

  2. 0:41 As a Vienna player, I break that rule almost every time

  3. Igor, I ignored this particular video more than any other one that I have seen in the last year. The reason is that I'm finally adjusting to your rich accent! You know your stuff and are enjoyable to watch and listen to.

  4. 4:28 if you use the knight instead of the queen's instant move, white can bring their knight to c3, defending the pawn. After that, you have a potential knight trade and still have to bring out the queen.

  5. I have a normal to just average skill on chess and droughts, these games excite me but also annoy me when a certain level just becomes nearly impossible 😅

  6. Your videos are very useful showing how to avoid mistakes and bad moves..Sir can you tell us about the phenomena in chess how the children win against players with high Elo in many tournaments nowadays !!! Thanx100🌹
