First to watch
0:34 – is anyone wondering where is the rook ? 😁
Thanks!!! Definitely easier at this level for me. I can work with this. 🙏🏼☯️
When you explain it every opening is the best opening lol
You are just brilliant and bring the best opening preparations for matches. Thank you very much and God bless you.
However I applied for a position but never got any response.
Thanks for all the work you do Igor! I would be very happy if you could also make a video for people above 1600 elo
Thats probably one of the opening videos I enjoyed the most so far, gotta try it out
Thank you broo ❤❤
Morphy's games are work of art. Probably my favourite artist.
It was wild and cool.😜😎
To be considered is the move order 1.e4 e5 2.d4 exd4 3.Nf3 allowing to counter the Petroff Nf6 with 4.e5 Ne4 5.Qxd4 d5 5.exd6 Nxd6 6.Bf4 Nc6 7.Qd2.
Critical is 3…Bb4+.
Where is the 2nd rook of white
At 4:26 What if the opponent instead of moving the knight on f6 some where, they move with their other knight from c6 to a5 counterattacking your unprotected bishop?
Bro playing scotch in rook odds
Sup guys?
Unfortunately most 1600 ELO players are going to play with a rook which makes it a target that Morphy didn't have to worry about. g6 followed by Bg2 puts a lot of pressure on the a1 rook.
best chess channel on Youtube!
Where is the rook?
The best chess opening for white is to sac the rook on a1 on move 0…. LOL
Bro did the entire video without his rook
Chess good. Igor good. Ukraine good.
I never really thought about it before but if you do Rook odds, you can't Castle on that side.
Wait where is a1 rook gone ?
I am going to a rating tournament.and I was not able to decide what to play as white .thank you so much❤🎉
He sacrificed the rook*
4:26 "there are no good squares for the knight to go" well actually not Nh5 is stockfish approved 😂 (in my study I have that as a counter if I ever face this variation)
Which game is that last one? I saw it once before but I couldn't remember who his opponent was
I could see bishop sacrifice and then queen check to recover the piece.
Last combination is really worth retaining, thanks.
What doez White do after 7 .. Bishop e7?
This is the opening I've been playing as white for the last couple of years. Great exciting games, and works well at my level (around 1400 rapid).
Even though this has been my opening for years, I hate seeing it from the black side.
