[@xescllabres1327]

[@michaelmorris6986]

You do a great job explaining your thought process through the whole game. I feel like im learning a lot. Thanks Alessia ✌️

[@eL-K97]

15:50 you had mate in 2! Qa1+ followed by Qxb2# or Rxb2#

[@Rachid-wf1ct]

yeh i was wondering how she couldn't see it

[@Dr_AOE1]

Nice video and nice lesson 🎉

[@tiagosilva7448]

You are amazing! Thank you so much! ❤

[@fore101]

Excellent work thank you for sharing

[@Alessia_Santeramo]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@joshuamphande2272]

Your calculation is crazy!! All this while chatting😮😮

[@sasabs6486]

great vid! at 7:29, wouldnt rook a3 be a good move, pinning the bishop to the king, and then picking it up on the next move?

[@Alessia_Santeramo]

Yes you are right!

[@Osp8]

how can the bishop be captured forward by the pawn at 5:24 ?

[@Pratik0007]

My day is made when alessia upload a video on YT 😀

[@Alessia_Santeramo]

Oh that's so kind, thank you! Good news: I'm now uploading once a day so enjoy lots of great days ;)

It always breaks my heart when I see you on the black side of the London 😂💔

[@Alessia_Santeramo]

Ohhh just saw this comment! Alex you are great but I will still remain a London hater 🤣

[@Amr-Khalil-88]

Hello Alessia, I am Amr from Egypt In this video, you said don’t play the London system and it’s my main opining with white pieces. May I ask why should not play this opening ?

[@LucaDeez-uv3zf]

congratulations for 69k followers

[@Alessia_Santeramo]

Nice

[@Barrosvbp]

I am trying to reach 1600!!! 😆It is so stressful to play a high rated player!!! I am always thinking: "I cannot beat this guy." And I am almost always right.

[@Alessia_Santeramo]

Just change it to "I cannot beat this guy YET"

[@Barrosvbp]

@@Alessia_Santeramo ❤

[@xescllabres1327]

@@Barrosvbp I feel the same all the time, Valmidenio. But just remember: you're not playing agianst that guy, but against his pieces. So don't let a high Elo scare you. He has exactly the same 16 pieces that you have (and maybe he's not as motivated as you are, so go get'em, tiger!

[@joshuamphande2272]

That's me too many times. Funny thing is I even beat 2000 rated players, even a 2200 once when I was lower rated. But now I keep losing even to opponents in the same bracket. The difference? My MENTALITY back then was fearless. Now I'm like a coward. Playing good and THINKING good are highly connected

[@mlsterlous]

2:08 I'm usually playing against bots, and such blunder by a 1500-1800 bot is unthinkable. Maybe i should start playing against people more.

[@Alessia_Santeramo]

YES good to play against people

[@zihowl]

Alanecuatro estaría orgulloso!

[@a.g.4843]

Why not play the London system? I play it all the time..i love it

[@kunalaher3292]

I reach 1200 now after watching this video I am going to reach 1800+ soon😅😅

[@chriss6519]

Hello again Alessia! On your last video I mentioned I was 1200 NOW I'M 1300 AND IT'S ALL BECAUSE OF YOUR INSTRUCTIVE VIDEOS! THANK YOUUUU🎉❤❤❤ (also your hair looks so healthy in this video)

[@Alessia_Santeramo]

That's so amazing Chris!

[@rigakent6443]

Common it's not that London system sucks.. Its just that you're a better player. You Gould have crushed your opponent even if he played any opening say like the rut lupez etc

[@fintan9218]

Spicy Bishop

[@fernandocastro919]

I voted for this thumb :)

[@Alessia_Santeramo]

YAY thank you for your help :)

[@garypierce7380]

I picked Pooh Bear, but honestly I don’t have any idea what he has to do with getting to 1800??? I think Alessia was just piggybacking on Winnie’s fame. Personally I would’ve picked Tigger over Pooh.

[@OXY16]

Another video= another lesson 🎉🎉

[@Alessia_Santeramo]

More to come!

[@McChessNerd]

😃❤

[@Marcin_Cin]

Congratulations, it looks so easy but really not 😊

[@Alessia_Santeramo]

It's never easy

[@mrdiscord764]

Soooooorry for the bad joke😢

[@zoltanalexbarna2565]

Hello! I would like to play some 10 minute parties with you online. Can I play with you sometime?

[@mayurkvirodhiya]

Just crossed 1700 last week, thanks to you. P.S.: Still waiting to be Pinned!

[@Alessia_Santeramo]

Nice work!
