Fischer knew this. That's how he became a paranoid schizophrenic.

[@misterree]

"If you notice, your opponent lives in Southern California. That means the most opportune move would be bishop to B5. If he had lived in Southern Kentucky, we would be looking at bishop to g2, essentially fianchetto'ing our bishop on the longest white diagonal."

We need more Yasser! He is the Professor of Chess. His lectures are truly outstanding.

[@BHAKTIBROPHY]

Check out St. Louis Chess Club. He has hundreds of hours of lessons over there. I'm so glad I found he's done all these videos with GM Asan. (Thank you chess.com!) And thank you Asan!

[@Vronsky-dd8mg]

That's the whole truth. Awesome content.

[@Felix-fm3tu]

Yes truly the best. Just a joy to listen to as well

[@matthewerickson2006]

The energy this man puts out is like melting butter. A good cup of tea and a Yasser video is a perfect night cap.

No one: Yasser: "The vagaries of fashion and theory do fluctuate greatly."

We NEED more Yasser on the Chessbrah channel. I want a weekly 1-3 hour stream from him! He's the best teacher there ever was.

[@jeanpaulfelix4095]

aman hambelton habits is outstanding.

[@briant2140]

Yasser's slow pace makes his teaching easier to remember/memorize basic themes. It is like listening to classical largo while receiving chess instruction. Thank you Yasser.

[@SacredLiquid]

These Yasser lessons are amazing bois. Thanks for the awesome content.

the best voice to learn chess to! So soothing

Increase.the video speed. I use 2x for Yasser. Works great.

[@michaelkelley88]

the larry holmes vs leon spinx brought me so much joy. i adore GM Seirawan and his measured and plain approach to explaining the upper levels of chess.

[@Snoooo]

Got into chess while ago and Yasser have become my favorite player and teacher. This man is an artist! Thank you for this video!

[@AtEboli]

I enjoyed this immensely. This is my first exposure to GM Seirawan, and I found him very engaging. He makes learning fun at the same time he is sharing his priceless insights. Just a great hour spent with a great player and equally good teacher.

[@gustavjansen]

What a teacher! Defs better to watch for learning than any of the other GM's Ive seen teaching... Very little ego involved, and lots of patience and understanding of students. Thank you.

[@was1swill]

Yasser, hearing you talk about chess makes me happy and I think I'm not the only one.

[@thep0peye]

GM Yasser and team, thank you for taking time on this detailed video. It was so engaging, I didn't skipped even a sec. Hoping to see many more videos like this.

[@TautologyTechSystems]

I could listen to Yasser all day, and his content and teaching style really work for me.

[@itzallai2397]

God I love the way Yasser teaches. there is no race to see how many lines you can calculate and come up with. slow, relaxed pace. repeated themes. interactive. I can actually take out my notebook and jot down a couple points without having to pause, go back and relisten. I love it.

[@himantasaikia8724]

First time I cud not watch this for it's such a slow video.. but finally on my second try I have made it.. n wow it's just so refreshing.. great teaching.

Your way of speaking is so calm, impressive and peaceful, love to see your analysis

[@Killer-ku8nf]

So wholesome, soothing and great a teacher.

[@MrHeroicDemon]

I enjoy that he's smart enough to convey that chess can be a gambler or a safe role, many people express this differently like chaos vs order, or like ben finegold says if you dont want stale mate games you take uncalculated risks. unknown unknown is your known unknown.

[@chandonbrown9347]

I just love your lessons Sir,,,thankyou

I'm an atrocious player very much a beginner and I'm seriously finding these lessons extremely helpful so thank you very much! You don't know how much a appreciate it! I've really started to gain a bit of traction with my rating climb and it's ever since you Yasser! 💛

[@iamtheteapot7405]

1:04:22 so the black queen on b1 is a mistake right? Otherwise bishop g5 is checkmate for black after queen e1 no?

[@stefanholbek2449]

Most of the moves went way over my head! ;O)

[@schnabeltasse]

36:13 I would take the knight and after Rc1 would take it also, with tempo. Bishop back so to c1. And now i would take the white bishop. But e7 and the knight on f3 looks also scary enough, so i have to give up material for the pawn. Eventually better is to take te pawn with the unemployed bishop and if white takes back with the rook, then take the bishop.... 1. Bg5 - Qc3 2. Rc1 - Qc1 3. Bc1 - dc OR 3. Bc1 - Be6 4. Re6 - dc
