Thank you!

This is so tough and there is so much material already published :)

You are welcome! Glad you enjoyed this video.

I have two videos on this channel with f4 system. Highly recommended if your move order permits!

Thank you! Much appreciated!

I know, that's why I played it! :). Right now I have other project in development, but I appreciate your suggestion and will definitely think about it in the future.

you can play the nadanian attack (cxd4 nxd4 na4)

It's extremely solid, what can happen with such a line? In worse case slight edge for White. Yurtaev variation you probably mean Archangelsk?

@@ask-avrukh1922 Yes, I mean Archangelsk

@@benderbey1067 for me Archanglesk is Sicilian of Ruy Lopez! Btw I have Archangelsk course on Modern-Chess :)

you probably get similar positions though with a6 0-0 Nc6 d5 Na5 b3 though as white

@@zexisak4085 very interesting point, never thought about this move order, even though I used to play this system for Black :). The idea to avoid Nc6, e5 line and you are right we can still play b3 and it's transpose.

I did mention this in my video! Exactly the issue 7.d5 avoids.

Absolutely!

I didn't think about it , but now I have an idea to consider! Thx for suggesting!

I might consider covering them as well, thx for suggesting!

Covered! kzbin.info/www/bejne/bWrbYnWrrruZsKM

I am getting more serious with my channel, hopefully it will be more often :)

Of course it's covered! Indeed, very important line.

Om Swastiastu avruhk i, m from Bali thanks for your video refetoire

Thanks

on my site ask-avrukh.com/Games.aspx

Thank you!

To be honest I don't have an idea to update Breyer, unfortunately I don't have this feature on my site.

Interesting idea, I might consider it. Probably not Scotch as well :)

@@ask-avrukh1922 thank you!

Maybe at some point, but not right now. It was a massive work! Out of curiosity if I combine QGA repertoire and Sidelines, so it will be full coverage of 1.d4 d5, would you be interested?

​@@ask-avrukh1922 I already bought QGA file in January, so this sidelines file would go well with that file

I bought QGA in January, so this would pair quite well

I just bought this sidelines file with full access. It is just as good as the QGA file. I especially like the London answer, as beforehand I used to be scared to shut in the light-squared bishop with ...e6. But your London answer shows that Black is not passive here.

@@elateorojo1917 Always quality work! Good luck with scoring many points!

Thanks!

Я закончил карьеру с книжками, 10 книг солидно! Вопрос насчёт Каталона интересный. Я думаю да, в наше время это очень популярный дебют.

On the higher level it's a lot of heavy theory, it might be fantastic alternative :)

@@ask-avrukh1922 makes sense. Appreciate the vids, I think it's a good balance between educational and to preview your courses. Doesn't feel like an ad or clickbait.

You are very welcome!

I know, but at least it can be clear without audio :)

Sorry about that, it's video from my IT guy. Hopefully my microphone is much better :)

I didn't hear any thunder. Not smoothest ever but not bizarre or anything

@@Sough different sound system probably? I have good speakers and my bass is noticable because I like to hear it when listening to music.

Avoid it and go against the Nimzo!

This is where White has a major crossroad 3.Nc3 , 3.Nf3 and 3.g3 , that being said only 3.Nc3 would allow us to get the variation covered in my video.

It's much more complicated to record a video :)

Digital is fine. It's all moves and geometry anyway

Tак в этомм же и идея избежать Ферзевый!

If you have an option to find annotated games in Catalan, for example Mega Database. If I remember correctly there are games of Kramnik, Gelfand etc.

Thank you!

Thanks for your comment. I have to emphasizes that 3.e3 will transpose to the line 3.Nf3 since I do not recommend 3...e5, but rather go with 3...Nf6 4.Bc4 e6 followed up by c5. Unfortunately, currently there are issues to add different payment options. As far as I know you can open PayPal account and only use your credit card.

I just published so no promo code yet. Don't forget it's really super detailed and will bring you many points :).

First of all congratulations on your impressive progress! To reach 2000 in 1 year, it's very impressive. It's actually very common to get stuck at this level, since this is the level where chess players already work very hard and definitely spent thousand of hours on chess. They do not blunder primitive stuff and do not commit obvious mistakes. I would suggest to get a coach, if you cannot afford try to get at least one evaluation class where coach analyzes your games, indicated problematic areas and comes up with the plan. IN this case you are not going to lose time with self-work.

@@ask-avrukh1922 thanks for replying, the problem is chess isn't that popular in my country ( Morocco) so it's very hard to find a coach , because there's no gm in this country, so I'm trying to teach myself from KZbin and games reviews and I was wondering if you can suggest any openings to pass this level , because I think that my openings don't match my playing style

@@tiredman261why not to try online? Currently I have only one student in person😉. Any opening which appeals to you should be fine, unless it has reputation of being dubious. At least to start with. When you see GMs play it that means it’s good.

I've been playing for 2 years and I'm 1100-1200 peak 1300

​@@tiredman261I play zukertort with g3

I am trying to make it shorter, but I always fail :). For those who cannot purchase PGN with my detailed coverage, this video might be a good starting point. They would already know two main lines.

Please check comments, I already responded to this question

In this file it's a full coverage of 1.d4 2.c4 , maybe at some point I will get 2.c4 deviations as well, although I have already London for Black on my site.

I think the request was for a full white d4 repertoire

What do you mean by 3.b4? , it's probably some typo :)

@@ask-avrukh1922i guess that’s a ‘no’ then!

I just don't see where White can play 3.b4in my file @@PLMLGS

@@ask-avrukh1922 In the line 1.e4 c5 2.Nf3, a6 Negi mentions 3.b4!?. It’s not like him to suggest such a move as an option [in the end his preferred choice vs the O’Kelly was ultimately 3.c3] so i thought this was interesting. He reckoned 3.b4 could be a ‘better’ version of the standard 1.e4, c5 2.b4?! Wing gambit as the move …a6 is not often played vs the Wing Gambit.

Ah, I felt it's not related to QGA :). Very interesting and indeed not covered in my O'Kelly file. Black shouldn't have problems with a little work.
