At 35:40 the best part "talking to yourself is a first sign of madness"... lol

[@stephen0793]

[@Charlie-js4um]

With regard to the having a reason behind every move, take a look at the Richard Feynman technique.

[@kudamtema3386]

Thank you!

I thought the isolated pawn was a liability

If you think too much in points and material you won't spot patterns that involve Queen sacrifices.

[@bezzer1185]

Love this guy

[@malegupta8404]

thansk for the vidoe and you are the best bro best in the world.you are really great teacher.

[@darekisrael469]

Talking to myself while calculating makes things easier for me to outwardly verbalize it ... At least during practice. Also streamers do this all the time under the guise of talking to their chat. So I don't think talking to yourself is the first sign of madness. Holding a full conversation with yourself is where things start to get questionable.

[@Charlie-js4um]

How's it going?

[@nimashahsavari8301]

if you talk to yourself or to the objects it's ok and not really dangerous but when the objects start talking to you then it is something serious ;-)

[@ranulfodaniel7]

I'm a Filipino I want to acquire your book, can you give the amount?

[@sylver76]

"Can you explain H6? No, you can't." Actually, I think I can. High-level chess players are not concerned about things like the bishop coming and pinning the black knight when it is developed, or knights coming to G5 hoping to get to H7 and forking Queen and Rook. Those take several moves and they can take care of it when the time comes. But beginners get spanked all the time with those exact moves. That small H6 move saves tons of trouble for beginners, and after getting mauled over and over it's just something they do. Same for A1, except that it also provides luft, preventing back row mate, another killer for beginners.

[@Cruz0e]

50:00 why did he take the knight? I wouldnt do but my opponents do often, probably because think they double my c pawn and its good for them

[@SuperYtc1]

1:12 Alright Simon, too much info!!

for the awaking d6 f6 qf6 r67 check d6 f6 qf6 black qd6 re7 check whites rook lost on next turn and the queen is hanging on the far end doing nothing and has to retreat unless you do be5 these are the wrong variations to play afer d6 and f6 if you calculate a variation and its unclear what to do and it is clear that its not getting you anywhere its the wrong variation to put into play the simplist moves are normally the best moves if you can't see an instant win than you need to icnrease the range of your pieces 1st variation 0-0 castles knight g5 bishop g7 black rg7 queen h7 check for black knight e6 bishop h6 black g7xkh6 qf8 checkmate for black 2nd variation deeply calculated with only notation and consideration and checkmate statments and some piece name references black 0-0 castles knight g5 black ph6 bishop f7 (i am at bishop f7) black rock g8xg7 white queen h7 black king h8 queen g8 check for black knight e6 bishop h6 black g7xkh6 qf8 checkmate 3rd variation deeply calculated black 0-0 castles knight g5 black ph6 bishop g7 (i am at bishop f7) king h8 white queen d4 black rf6 queen g8 checkmate cacluate your first instinct first i am taking a break

[@Raddlesby]

Simon, it's Doppelganger, with a P, a P son. Not Dobbelganger with a B, but with a P. A P. Don't you know your German folklore? C'mon, man!

[@Chessguitar]

In Dutch it is dubbelganger.

[@Raddlesby]

Simon isn't Dutch--he only plays the Dutch---and since the doppelganger is of Germanic origin, we go with their pronunciation. Thus, it's doppelganger.

[@Chessguitar]

German is a Dutch dialect. Thus it is dubbelganger.

[@Raddlesby]

Stick with chess and guitars.

[@Chessguitar]

Rattlesby, please have some fun.
