Hello, I am a 64 year old man who is new to chess. I also understand which pieces can move. But it goes so fast, even if it looks new. I believe I still have a few years to play chess as well as you. I also lose to beginners every time, but it trains my brain so I don't forget it easily. Wow what chess can do. I'm thinking about joining a chess club, but there I am, an old man, among the young people. I prefer to learn it here, where I can watch and learn it again and again.

If you say a line is bad, you stop to explain why it is bad. Also, something about the way you explain things feels very much like.. it helps me to conceptualize, rather than to memorize.

[@alisterchan-jq3id]

[@divangibran8007]

Sicilian is a tough one to crack tho.. If you're an aggressive player I suggest playing Grand Prix Attack with white.. it's very sound.. And it's also still played on high level chess (Ding has done this against Magnus) It has the simple idea with Qe1 and Qa4 then there's a line where you sac an exchange for a forced mate the thing is.. it's very hard to avoid this as black so usually you will do the same mating combination over and over again once you get the general idea you will likely win a lot using this opening

[@RaghavBabbar]

First things first, thanks a lot, this is really helpful! i watched this video yesterday and today got an opponent who tried this against me and used the cheap line 1 by using the pawn, i messed up in analyzing the situation properly and blundered my knight but then the situation somehow became the mixture of other situations you talked about in this video so i applied those concepts and won the game (the opponent resigned after i captured their queen and i like it this way more because the opponent basically got intimidated which is worse defeat than losing honorably by getting checkmated)

That's great to hear! Don't worry if you can't remember the exact moves in every situation, as more practice will improve your decision-making and calculation skills over time.

I've specialized myself in the scholars mate - and this is the ONLY variation I play. You forgot to mention the nice bishop sacrifice to remove the horse on h6 - (if black tries to avoid queen on f7 by putting the horse on h6). You just shoot down the horse on h6 with the white bishop from c1 after first moving the pawn from c2 to c4 to encite black to capture your pawn while opening the diagonal to h6.

At 15:30 I wish you would have explored blocking the Re8 check with Be5. If black doesn't press the attack, white can unpin the dark square bishop with O-O and the bishop & queen are on the long diagonal. That, too, can be punished with smart play from black, so seeing that line explored would be nice.

[@ChessSensei]

I have already addressed this in previous comments: "What i meant was 2 moves with the King - Kf1 or Kd2. When most beginner-intermediate level players are in check, their instinct is often to move the king first. Of course you can block with the bishop or even the queen but if we were to go through every single possible move the video would probably be 10 hours long :) Regarding Be5, Black can play Qd6 which wins a piece easily or you could go for extra style points with Nd7!"

For coaches or teachers to show the scholar's mate to students as if it will simply get them free wins is not only lazy coaching, it actually suggests the coach has not given this opening much thought. This is a serious attack and it is absolutely wonderful to see an instructor treat it like a serious attack. What you teach here ought to be the first thing a chess student learns after the names of the pieces and how they move. Here we have an introduction to chess openings. A damn fine one.

100% will capture the pawn? Really? exf5 is a mistake for white actually. f5 is good and aggressive move, but don't always expect opponent to make mistakes.

This review is the definition of "know when to stop"

Very detailed information thank you. I will try this next time if I remember. I'm at 1200 rapid so this is very rarely encountered

[@yashpalmehta8634]

Very useful video. So precisely demonstrated all possibilities using arrows. I am one of your new fan...

I mostly use Qf6 to protect all my pieces

[@ChessSensei]

Yep Qf6 to protect the f7 square works as well! Just be careful, White might have sneaky threats with Nc3-Nd5

[@PRO99-z1g]

@@ChessSensei I play Nh6 to defend this attack

[@crazyrun2024]

I know I'm super late, but I would recommend that for 3:27 looking into the move 4. . .f5. It's actually a great weapon against the attack and you can blow your opponent off the board in just a few more moves if they play incorrectly.

..pawn just captures back on F5 then what?

I like doing 2. Nc6 if my opponent plays 3. Bc4 I play 3… g6
