Prophylaxis | Chess Middlegames

[@ignasiorobertohaakmat257]

As a chess coach myself i highly recommend this channel to my students,you deserve much more subscribers.

[@HangingPawns]

Thank you very much for saying that Sir! That is a tremendously valuable compliment coming from a chess coach!

[@ubicutvojuporodicu1039]

what's your rating Ignasio? I'm an IM and would gladly coach you ;)

[@jujubean9063]

@@ubicutvojuporodicu1039 Chess elitist. Rating is irrelevant when teaching amateurs. Get over yourself. Sometimes in life, being the best swimmer doesn't mean you will also be the best swimming teacher.

[@ceebs37]

Just what I thought xd

[@davidwestwood6850]

DEFENSE! Chess is such a rich environment for thinking about thinking and opportunities to improve or otherwise change plans. Be alert and be nimble. Consider the board as your opponent sees it. Thank you.

[@Nuagedebleu]

Thanks so much. Now i understand the importance of prophylaxis.

[@kasperadamson4654]

This little tiny piece of advice “rewind your game to find a point where you should have done the preventive move” is just brilliant. So simple. I have never thought it like so. I have analysed my games so very wrong.

[@2Oldcoots]

I love instructional videos because they strike a wonderful balance between complexity and explanation! Thank you sir.

[@HangingPawns]

Thanks for the great feedback Sir:) I really appreciate it!

[@uneq9589]

"weaker players like me"? What am i then?😅

[@spartaqus2207]

One of the best chess channels on KZbin, thanks

[@jujubean9063]

I see you get a lot of comments from chess elitists who act like you shouldn't be teaching because you aren't a world class player. Ignore them. You are an inspiration to many of us, and you are a good teacher. Sometimes the best swimmer in the world makes the worst swimming teacher. Only people who have spent time as an amateur can understand what needs to be said to other amateurs. Watching your progress is proof to the world that steady progress is possible with proper training. You will be a GM, I know it. Until then, I can say without any doubt that your videos will help anyone from beginner to expert. I think you might be a better chess teacher than Yasser, and I think Yasser is pretty damn good at teaching amateurs chess. I am rooting for you to get your GM title. You have sacrificed everything to follow your passion for chess and I want to see you achieve those dreams. You remind me of Arnold Schwarzenager (or however it is spelled). You both are willing to go all in to follow your dreams. (I would love to hear you say "get in the chopper" or "i'll be back" from time to time...)

14:02 nice queen blunder lol

[@odpadkowy]

Thanks mate! i find your videos as useful or even more so than GM ones. GM lectures are usualy black and white, straight theory. They focused on the result, right or wrong. Yours show the process of getting to the right answer, working your way out. Which is often the best IMHO. Knowing the right answer is not as good as understanding why the answer is the right one. Best regards from Poland!

[@joebermuda6452]

Prophylaxis is more than important it’s basically the entire concept of defensive play in chess

[@lionsskyblue442]

I need this. thank you sir. thumbs up as usual!

Heck, moving my h/a pawns is like the second thing I do because I get so tired of bishops threatening my knights early on

Fantastic positions, thanks for the video!

[@sureshrawte9951]

Thnx for such a nice and simplified explanation!!!!👍

[@beloglavisup2]

In Ruy Lopez, variation you showed us is Bogoljubov variation. This variation was invented in 1922. in match Capablanka vs Bogoljubov. Just for a record

[@HangingPawns]

Yeah. Thanks

Hi, I really love your channel! But maybe you could improve your sound: Have you ever thought about cutting off the low frequencies in your recordings? Some recording apps have a low cut included. That’s only cosmetics. I hope you don’t mind :-)

[@gianglanhtruong3069]

very good lesson ,tk

[@labanyakumarsaha4256]

Stephan, @hanging pawns, my sir always tells me to watch your all videos and I also find that your explanation is very good. And I think that seeing games above 2400 or even more rated games can improve my chess. Please let me know if I am right. 🤗

[@danieldnbt]

Gotcha, so just play the right moves and don't do the bad moves.

[@mattsoper4120]

Just what I need in my play. It’s tough to think about opponents plans when focusing on offense. Hope this helps me say “Oh s$#@ I didn’t see that coming”.😩 a lot less. 😎
