I ship u with Anna Cramling

[@banzaiburger9589]

Really great Caro Kann speedruns that are so helpful to me. Would love to see more of the games where you apply the fianchetto treatment against the Two Knights variation

[@fazzolarijames]

Seconded

[@carloskoehl4601]

Love these videos, Alex. Very instructive and great fun to watch!

[@joelmalmberg2996]

Fantastic video as usual! Both instructive and fun! Keep up the good work :)

[@guapoglass]

You’re a beast bro. I’ve started using the caro thanks to you and have had a ton of nice wins

[@EduardoGarcia-jq8us]

Amazing content Alex!

[@lgaynor1]

Love the pawn cube but I love more that you can accurately calculate your opponents next move and most of the time it is true. As always you make it look so easy. Thanks Alex for the amazing content.

[@AlexBanzea]

You are too kind 🥰

[@Mr_J1984]

Love these Caro videos, keep it up! :)

[@BenRook]

I've been looking at playing the Caro more seriously to supplement my Sicilian play. Thank you for this series.

[@santiagopruno6215]

Great work Alex, follow you from the beginning

[@Lee-uf4no]

Hey Alex, I'm really enjoying working through your London course on Chessable. I'd love to see a Caro-Kann Chessable course from you as well!

[@amirhosseinshater3610]

Great as always ❤️

[@BernardHumphreyGaskin]

I like your backdrop ... Houses of Parliament in London, a city where I live and work.

[@kaidoChess]

‘Little does he know 😂’ …

[@cookiemonster-nk3xb]

Alex you are the man..best online chess teacher!

[@hata6290]

Bro yt would not stop recommending me this so alright Alex

[@mitchbarlow5758]

Pawn cube! Good stuff thanks bro

[@sliceserve234]

just what I wanted, some Tartakower stuff against the Caro Kann!

[@frankvanbussel4226]

great stuff

[@emmanuelrodriguez1693]

Thank you for all these caro kann videos. They've been super helpful! Do you like playing g6 or e5 in the Breyer variation on move 3?

[@kingkillah101]

I'm astounded how IM Banzea's five minutes is an eternity for him -- my five minutes feels like ten seconds in my games.

[@wrathofpunjabi]

It’s interesting that every time u are uncomfortable with a certain line, I totally agree.

[@richardmcquade8669]

Ty

[@walterbrownstone8017]

Danya was just raving about the same pawn cube on one of his videos.

[@Anteater23]

What is the idea of bringing the queen knight towards the kingside in your first game?

[@dougveganparadisebuilder5808]

I appreciate these long episodes. I hope you pick up the KIA series one day though, as you never got up to the higher levels. Please continue the CK to its forecasted level.

[@ChessJourneyman]

I feel like the pawn cube and connect four should be called Rosen pawn structures 😂😂😂 And

[@howlingwolf317]

Everybody loves the pawn cube. It's one of Naroditsky's favorite pawn structures too. It's so aesthetically appealing.

[@pakchu2]

Do you give back rating points to your opponents?

[@galinkamburov2799]

Very helpful videos. I gain from 1700 to 2000 for a 3 months. Can you please go for 1900-2100.

[@kaidoChess]

3:12 howd you make that odd looking arrow?

[@AlexBanzea]

Feels like a glitch to me haha

[@kaidoChess]

@@AlexBanzea ah man I thought they made a cool new arrow 😂

[@nickwhite4632]

When you played qd6, wouldn’t bishop f5 have won a piece, after bishop takes night takes check forking whites bishop, and attacked by blacks other bishop?

[@kaidoChess]

40:15 upload shorts on mobile! It’s way easier

[@jonhanlon9293]

10:10 Can anyone explain why the bishop on e3 is such a threat to white that white goes for a queen sac? Can’t white just go Re4?

[@AlexBanzea]

I was about to take on f2 with the rook and then at least with the exchange with …Bxd4. There is also perhaps …Qe2 coming which looks mating, so white is quite lost

[@spirita4072]

GingerGM annihilates London players with the Dutch, so you can check his videos out for that...

[@Nishant014]

Make rating climb on other openings... Except London and caro kann
