Thanks Adam! 👏

Great video. I play the philidor with black but I use a pirc move order 1...d6 to avoid this line and others

[@nonodupont3385]

Nice lecture, regarding the main line, there are these 2 games as model ones: Tiviakov - Murshed 2003 Boleslavsky - Shcherbakov 1942

Thanks 😊

Thanks Edmond! 💪👍

Hello. What is the difference with the move order 1 e4 d6? I usually go 2 d4 Nf6 3 Nc3 e5 4 Nf3 and after 4... Nbd7 reach the main lines I would somehow prefer to avoid. Is there an antidote - a drawback to early Nf6?

[@jensangelsgaard1854]

Correct. The video has a wrong moveorder for black.

very great coach💪

[@kylephan5608]

This is nice

[@MiodragPerunovicOfficial]

Very nice ;)

Butcher-san !! What do you think of 1. e4 e5 2. d4 exd4 3. Bc4 ? (I've been using this move order for almost 2 years now and the thing is it avoids Petrov and directly forces black into either Scotch, Nimzowitsch or Philidor) Arigato gozaimasu for this video !!

[@MiodragPerunovicOfficial]

Thanks Hritwik, enjoy upcoming videos!

[@chessaspire1432]

CAN YOU MAKE AN EXHAUSTIVE VIDEO ON ANTOSHIN VARIATION THAT WILL SUFFICE

[@МаксимЕзерский-ф3в]

I think for Black is better- 3... ed and then Be7, 0-0

FOLLOWED BY A VIDEO ON OLD INDIAN DEFENCE.

Mr butcher, the lines after 4..., h6 are too sharp, specially the ideas with 8. Nc3 sacrificing the knight on e5. That is way too sharp, white is completely winning but one mistake and now is black who is on the advantage!! Mate in 10 etc but if You miss, You lose! I am 2000 at tactics but this is way ahead my capacities.

[@MiodragPerunovicOfficial]

Just learn it :) There are two type of lines: bad ones (learn them by heart) and good ones (learn model games and plans). So learn it!

[@victorchavez2217]

That is some advice I didn't know! I will just memorize it! Thanks Big Mio.

Hvala :)

[@jensangelsgaard1854]

Your video is a strawman. You are giving nlack a wrong moveorder.
