The perfect opening for an attacking player!

[@Jozarovschesschannel]

Chessinators Agree

[@binpei2035]

Can you show us the PGN of the Carlsen vs Ding Liren? I cannot find the game online. Thank you!

[@jadalsayegh672]

Great opening please if you can recommend an opening against the petrov

[@Jozarovschesschannel]

Jad Al Sayegh Actually you could go into a similar opening line against the Petrov with d3

[@jadalsayegh672]

Oki great you have meant without taking on e5 and going into the usual petrov or after taking on e5 and on e4 then you go d3 ? Thank you for your reply 🖒

[@gillrowley7264]

I won a game in the US Open in 2018 playing 3.e5.

[@Jozarovschesschannel]

Gill Rowley E5 hm ok

[@aratrikmukherjee5195]

So this series will cover the French defense both from white's and Black's perspective ?

[@Jozarovschesschannel]

Aratrik Mukherjee yes

[@serhiikotyk8217]

What if black simply takes (6. d5 takes e4) and then after 7. dxe plays Kc6?

[@Jozarovschesschannel]

Serhii Kotyk i think white can always have a good activity on the D-file if the center opens

[@serhiikotyk8217]

@@Jozarovschesschannel may be another video for this case? ☺️

[@Jozarovschesschannel]

Serhii Kotyk sure

[@gehadmohamed7764]

Great video. A tough player in our area always play the French defense brilliantly. I'll try the King's Indian attack the next time after checking some analysis.

[@vamshi8597]

Thank you sir😊👍

[@Jozarovschesschannel]

Vamshidhar Reddy you Are welcome

[@sauravboloor6937]

I usually start out with Nf3 so I don't get to play the Qe2 variation. But with Qe2 variation the e5 is a strong outpost for the bishop in the attack

[@mikecantreed]

8:45 h3 Bxc6 is a nice in between move bc White has Qe4. Bxc6 hxg5 Be4 and you retain Qh5 ideas.

[@fandastruhal5231]

Fantastic video, I will play Franch defence ! I will learn. Thk...

[@Jozarovschesschannel]

Great!

[@shivakale3925]

Great work sir..

[@Jozarovschesschannel]

shiva kale Thanks

[@sauravboloor6937]

This opening is my blood

[@barayekarham5730]

thanks jozarov

[@aratrikmukherjee5195]

Suggestions....French winewar for white and the 2 knights attack against the french

[@Jozarovschesschannel]

We Are doing that also of course

[@aratrikmukherjee5195]

Excited for this new series

[@ytmndman]

I'll have to try this some time

[@jbennett1618]

There are many valid ways to handle the KIA verses the french. What makes what I am to do so incredibly unique is the following line 1.e4 e6 2.d3 d5 3.Qe2 b6 intending Ba6 too good! unique too

[@builderphill1361]

Another wonderful chess professionalism shown by Magnus, he accepts he won't have a mate and goes for a winning position up a pawn

[@builderphill1361]

Thanks for this man! I hate going against french players who know all the theory! I've used this to beat the top player at my club!

[@BonkLoud]

Thanks, I always hated playing against the French defense

[@ziadoonahmed9160]

( flank attack is possible when the center is closed) 😎 now i learned this strategical attack

[@pedromartinstimoteodacosta1710]

I usually play the king’s Indian attack agains the French, but never realized how powerful this C4 move can be. I’m definitely including it into my play

[@JirikSmid]

It seems to work only if black make c5 move. After Nc6 and Nd4 in next move, forcing the queen out of her sweet spot, no matter what white plays the game slowly equalize. What do you think?

[@TheMrFcuk]

Very instructive and helpful. As I commented before your videos are great for beginners to give a deeper understanding of ideas of chess.

[@Jozarovschesschannel]

TheMrFcuk I think in the future I will cover more opening theory
