Jobava London System as played by the World Champ!

[@johnheaton8498]

Really great commentary thanx john.

[@MrGyges]

Alas, no bridge for Black to cross the chasm at e5. Very nifty performance by the former champ. John, my boy, you’re some story teller. Excellent.

[@kaikulimu]

You are very good at explaining. Hidden gem in the chess community!

[@chongyewchang1705]

Very instructive analysis. Good video

[@TheTjappo]

Great break down!

[@OswaldoLafee]

Just watched your 3 jobava videos and man they are great. I’m a novice trying to learn the London. I’m a new subscriber and do like the pace and lével of explanation you provide. Thank you

[@Joecharbo1]

Wow man. You're really good explaining things. Thanks a lot for all this contents. Cheers from Quebec. You've got a new subscriber. ;o)

[@chessdawg]

Thank you.

[@kalilg2242]

What an excellent breakdown; I learned a lot!

[@ChristiaanvanHemert]

Analyzes genius play by world champion. Conclusion: "so as you can see WE can still win when nothing seems to work". Haha, if only things were that easy. Great video!

[@Ebobster]

Good game; excellent commentary. Curious that Bok in reply to Magnus’ Knight re-routing (Nc3-e2) didn’t play Nb4 to lop off white’s hemmed in white squared bishop (Bd3). Presumably Magnus had something in mind… but what?Anyway, very interesting game. Thxs for sharing. Cheers

[@ermanevcil]

thank you

[@renatomercurio4774]

Yes thats all right. Probably in this game he showed, he is the best endgame, middlegame and opening player.

[@GoranRadic]

After a6 the best move for white is h3.

[@sharegreats2157]

Enjoyed the commentary and subscribed. You call Magnus the greatest endgame-player of all time. But there are some others who can well compete with him, such as Lasker, Aljekhin, Smyslow, Fischer. The last named champion was well-known for his perfect and machine-like technique after he got the slightest advantage. But certainly Carlsen is the best nowadays.

[@roqsteady5290]

Rubinstein, Capablanca…

[@youngt2827]

Good shit

[@YingTou1]

(5:48) "Rook to c8": don't understand this move - why doesn't Black play a5 himself (or maybe even Na5) to halt White's A pawn?

[@stormofsteel88]

Magnus is insane.

[@meow0036]

Watching from 3rd world Nepal

[@chessdawg]

👍 Welcome to the channel!

[@TheFenrirulfr]

Ew

[@basubk6643]

From nepal as we my frnd

[@grandmastersilkl]

Capablanca was also a great endgame player

[@roqsteady5290]

Instructive game, not sure the opening had so much to do with the result, though.

[@AaronHillyer]

Awesome stuff. But to Magnus, Benjamin Bok is not strong competition

[@Amer1kop]

Poor grandmaster Bob…

[@YingTou1]

(I played this and lost against a wily Arab who played the Alibaba Baghdad system.)

[@wce-tube]

No we can't. Magnus can 😂

[@Woodflooralchemist]

What’s your elo sir?

[@chessdawg]

2150 over the board, 2400 online. There is a link to my online accounts in the description.

[@Woodflooralchemist]

@@chessdawg nice so is I’m 1500 online I’d be way low OTB?

[@chessdawg]

Generally, online ratings are higher than OTB. But not automatically. If you want to play OTB you should just jump in and do it. It can only make you a stronger player.@@Woodflooralchemist

[@Woodflooralchemist]

@@chessdawg I love to! However I have 4 kids I’ve looked for tournaments near me but they are all in Indy Fort Wayne, I’m in northern IN. Someday

[@buridah328]

Imagine wasting your life playing a board game.
