I love when someone is able to explain a main line variation of an opening and its ideas. I've been playing this variation for quite a while now and I really learned a lot from this video. Specifically that white shouldn't get crazy and try to play f4, e5 and f5. I really feel that as a non-member of the chess club I shouldn't have any say on what topic will be covered on the lecture but since Jonathan encouraged us to submit some openings I would really like to see the samisch variation of the kings indian as black or a recommendation on how to play against the caro kann as white. Thank you very much for all the videos I really enjoy them!

I understood the importance of d3 square and the move rookb1. Both key aquares as well as e5. I think its the soul of this opening. Thanks alot. A few more videos of some advanced variations will be appreciated. As we all know there isnt enough stuff about benko gambit available.

Great lecture, thanks, keep 'em coming! Even more rewarding to watch at 0.9x speed :-) so no problem cramming a lot of information in the hour. Please keep asking quick "what's the best next move" questions even if your audience is baffled, it's a nice cue to pause the video and have a quick think.

Thanks for the lecture Jonathan, very nice again. As an idea for any next lectures, I think it would be nice to look at the Petroff defense for black. Especially I would be interested in some of blacks more aggresive lines in this opening, if those lines even exist(?).

I understand this was designed for KZbin (looks and motions to the camera frequently), but the instructor needs to talk to the audience that's actually there and not the camera, it comes off as in insult to the audience in most cases. Refer to Ben Finegold's style, he appeals to both the camera and the audience.

he also keeps on calling his audience "The Intelligent people" when he asks them to predict the next best move... which holds a funny humor in itself yea, but also its a bit insulting to them if they didn't predict the right answer..

+William Stoner True, speaking to both the audience and the camera would look more "pro". Actually the general rule is to never look into the camera, if you break the 4th wall viewers get confused and drop whatever they're doing in front of the screen :-p

about 6:00: ...Bf5? provocates e4, which makes the weakness on d3? But e4 with a tempo makes the white position much better, coz the B. has to go back, which loses a tempo. Of course Nxe4 is not possible. he think he changed the variations! thats not a good quality. (...Nxe4 Qa4 +-)
