The Only Chess Opening You Need To Learn With Black

[@govindmanchi692]

Charming, enjoyable, simple and great fun 😊

[@Aed126]

Hey we need a lesson about ponziani open, coz i heard someone says it's one among the italian sideline that are so tricky.

[@R.Akerman-oz1tf]

@Aed126 Halo. For clarity's sake; @ & 7:54 d5. Not an advantage, but is this an opportunity foe "en passant"? Just trying to learn. Thnx

[@mariiris1403]

@@R.Akerman-oz1tf Yes, en passant could have been played there, by Alessia's opponent.

[@R.Akerman-oz1tf]

@@mariiris1403 Thnx! That dispels My confusion.

0:32 "In every opening it's very important to control the centre." *cries in Grob*

[@BixenteFabregas]

The Grob controls the center with Bg2!

[@abuthahirumarhathab4201]

I play the smith morra gambit against the sicilian and black doesnt know what to do most of the time and end up in a sucky position. Atleast in my elo range (1500 - 1600)

[@ClariseFamily]

Ya cause u vs patzers 1600s are patzers

[@abuthahirumarhathab4201]

@@ClariseFamily I mean yeah. We 1600s do suck and we know it 😅. But most folks are below this elo anyway. Also smith morra gambit is a legit and sound opening against Sicilian. Sound because u don't have a easy refutation of that gambit. And it is practical too.i know little theory and I am just winning a lot of matches when opponents play Sicilian anyway. But when u know all theory of that opening ( smith morra gambit is surprisingly more theoretical), u will dominate even master level players. Like Marc esserman plays this opening and he beats IMs, GMs, etc not just in blitz, bullet and rapid but also classical. I am not saying sicilian is a bad opening. Just that white players have some aggressive weapons against it.

[@TheRuns2]

Excellent lesson as always. The main question I'd bet from most of us, how does one remember all these scenarios up to 7:18?

[@b.o.4492]

Thank you for this video.

[@Nonentity33]

Very great instructional video! 19:15 how about attacking the queen with C4 supported by the bishop? Or will the double pawn move by white make it okay to move twice with queen as black?

[@Rijnswaand]

13:10 it’s nEcessary

[@JenithaC-rx1ge]

Its nes es cery .....

[@DhrjMakj]

This is exactly what I am looking for

[@npigwnl]

Thank you!

[@Premansh_tak]

yo mam im 18 but its too late for me to start chess im 551 elo now i played 300 matches alwredy still what should i do now should i stop playing

[@SunilDachmann-mg7mm]

Learn tactics (Lichess), play 15|10, think about every move (don’t Blunder), play London and Caro Kann This helped me when I was 500. 1 year later and I am 1940 Fide

[@Harsh-se1gx]

Yes stop it. Find an internship, start investing, go to gym. Chess is very addictive it can ruin your 20s.

[@StefanoMerella]

@@Harsh-se1gx this comment gave me some "videogames are for kids get some work done and be a man" vibes

[@Premansh_tak]

@@Harsh-se1gx yep fr

[@MohamedRedaBokhabrine]

I think you have better things to do at 20 than to invest time in chess, If you want to just let it as a side hobby do it, or just stop playing

[@nikolawenta]

23:28 is for the gods :P

[@dragonore2009]

My go to opening for black (if my opponent plays the Italian) is the Rousseau gambit, it's free ELO.

[@xenbolt7035]

OneTurco: Haha I got your queen. Just resign. Alessia: brilliant move to win a queen OneTurco:Breaks everything in his house

[@mathildewesendonck7225]

I am around 1000 and I‘ve hardly ever won with the Sicilian Defense.. I disagree, I think it’s not very beginner friendly, especially not against stronger players. There are just so many lines to consider and I can’t remember them. What am I doing wrong?

[@R.Akerman-oz1tf]

I wonder ...how far is Sicily from Allessia's Home-Town? Many hundreds is a guess.

[@SunilNagra]

Amazing 😍

[@R.Akerman-oz1tf]

Emphasis works Ok with "accessory"! Please say as U please; We all understand.

[@epictetuscasanova]

Love your videos, you do a great job of explaining your moves to make them understandable

Very mellifluous infotainment. 🎼🎶💛😂💛🎶🎼

[@deepaksiva2582]

Thank you Sweetie I have just won a game with Sicilian opening just now

[@R.Akerman-oz1tf]

Next; InAC' curracy. I really miss this channel. I hope U & S/O are doing well. Great fun 4 All.

[@beechercc6722]

You still need a black opening for D4

[@valnovanoth]

Ale ma secondo te non è troppo rischiosa come apertura a basso livello?

[@ClariseFamily]

No one plays the achevingen cause of g4 its unpleasant

[@aldenredman9766]

What about the Pirc Defense

[@Policechess]

Sicilian rarely ends mussel ,,

[@banzaiburger9589]

But so much theory… 😢

[@adamacamara2861]

Alessia Thank You !!!!

[@jorgezerovsterran527]

good one , master

[@izzm33_urdaydrm]

You were like my tutor

[@NicolasBonaldo]

ok so... now im in love

[@peterjansen4826]

I just started with the English opening for white, quite similar I guess.

[@Alessia_Santeramo]

Yes! If black plays 1...e5

[@creatingonthemargins1089]

Necessary, accent on 1st syllable. English has so many more exceptions than Italian 😊

[@Alessia_Santeramo]

Thank you!!

[@shadeburst]

We English speakers are very forgiving of English Second Language speakers because we are too lazy to learn another language! Foreigners will always understand English if you keep on repeating it, a bit louder every time.

[@user-qc3ik5by6v]

Nope, the Rousseau Gambit is the best imo

[@tultulphukan9482]

❤

[@Rijnswaand]

The only opening you say. But what if white opens with d4?

[@prplt]

didn't cover the Mengarini gambit (best variation against the Sicilian) 😂

[@Harsh-se1gx]

Great video Alessia, but sicilian is not for beginners. It's a very trick opening and black can get trapped or can have inactive pieces.

[@michael2244]

I always play the O'Kelly Sicilian, I'll beat anyone

Beat magnus carlsen😂

@@shibambhattacharjee5268 you mean magnisium calsium

That’s like the worst variation I think there’s actually a forced loss in it.
