  1. Please make a video on London opening variation

  2. GM Smirnov is easily the best chess teacher I have seen on Youtube. The way he explains complex chess ideas in such a simple and elegant way is genius. I have only watched a few of his videos and have already had several epiphanies.

  3. The Philidor defence is not the most popular nowadays, but is still regularly played by GMs. Are you saying all these top players are making a noob mistake?

  4. Do you ever play games online that we can watch? If you streamed, I would watch.

  5. Finally now I understand why engine suggest that

  6. GM Igor,
    One quick question… what is better? A "book" move? Or a "best" move?
    thank you

    Black can actually do counterplay here by offering a queen trade instead of losing a rook. The move is ..
    Qf6.

  23. Excellent video, as always. A simple challenge for you — just one time would you pronounce the word variation correctly? Just as a curiosity. Not "vur-a-shun" but "var-i-a-shun" — four syllables. Then resume saying it the way that's most comfortable for you, which is familiar and perfectly fine. Again, great videos, great themes and explanations!
