It must be hard to focus on chess while talking. But one of the great things about this channel is that you are open to the possibility that you have made mistakes. It's nice to see a teacher who is willing to review his games and look for mistakes (and sometimes find them). Most teachers over 2000 either don't make mistakes or don't mention them, so it's nice to find a teacher who is more "human" in that sense.

[@joshuadanford7364]

Its so good to see you take your fans opinions and play some online games. Please play more so we can see please!

[@7percentSolution]

Really enjoying the channel, Jonas, and learning a lot! FYI, the rating climb vids will get easier and smoother as time goes on, finding the right balance of good moves, commentary and time management. Don't worry about the length of videos. If you strive for quality, the viewers will come and your subscribers will grow.

[@Pegasus-Chess]

Yes I still struggle with commentary and time management but it's improving. Thank you! 🙏

Bro had a back rank checkmate with QxR 😮

[@Pegasus-Chess]

It's not a mate but it is a very good move!

[@samuelbruyneel]

13:43 You missed his backrank weakness. Qxd1!!

[@R.Akerman-oz1tf]

Seems to work. Nice catch; saw Ur comment B4 watching the vid, then explored it.

[@SeosamhOCaoimh]

Came here to say this surely the queen sacrifice is much better than the queen trade.

[@TheMichiganFishHunter]

Great video today. Thanks for sharing.

[@VKMsdRO]

Keep going

[@Beery1962]

6:46 why not RxQ first?

[@Pegasus-Chess]

They are both good options, RxQ is slightly better 🙂

[@mesomanc6517]

I thought the same, I just came to the comments to check in case I missed something. Really enjoying the vids 👍

[@VUIGALE18]

Please, play with the English opening for this new series 🥺💖💖

[@Pegasus-Chess]

[@Kinser342]

How about jobava london?

[@Pegasus-Chess]

Jobava London is a fine opening if you know the theory, but I don't play it myself.

[@gazitasin69]

Keep it up! Im watching your video when you had less than 1k sub. Hope you get more views and subscribes

[@Pegasus-Chess]

I remember you were there at the start

[@gazitasin69]

​@@Pegasus-Chess Thanks ❤❤❤

[@Voidcaptor00]

Thank you

[@michaelcarroll5801]

I prefer my knight on c3 to have some coverage on d5, but in some lines it would indeed be better off on d2 instead. Interesting system, and I'm intrigued by the results people are reporting. Do the principles apply just as much to gambits? Thanks if you see this, Jonas.

[@Pegasus-Chess]

I personally don't play gambits as I like solid chess. When you're trying to play solid chess and your opponent plays a gambit there's usually a way to steer the game to a more simple/solid structure if you don't fully accept the gambit and are prepare to give back the pawn you won.

[@JohnDoe-y9y]

Why didn't you take the Black Queen with the rook instead of your Queen?

[@Pegasus-Chess]

That's also possible, both moves are equally strong.

[@Mark8v29]

So far I have been pushing the e pawn (Colle system) regardless of what black does so as not to disrupt the queen side pawn structure and even though the engine tells me its better to push the c pawn from c3 to c4. My entire strategy being as you have recommended to keep the pawn structure unchanged during the middle game so it's ready to facilitate a pawn promotion in the end game. Am I correct as a beginner or should I also do c3 to c4 if attacked in the opening/early middle game on the queen side? I've had 3 wins in a row in my ongoing match with the computer that now leads by only 20.5 to 18.5. I hope to soon equalise the score!

Day 2 of asking how to win at chess like Bobby Fischer style (it's something different from your own playing still give it a shot)

[@Pegasus-Chess]

Haha I will create one for sure, trying to cover all chess Legends. Will make the Bobby Fischer video next week
