Prophylaxis in Chess - The Prevention Strategy - A GM Tool

[@nathanwade8470]

This is probably an odd comment, but I really appreciate how you don't focus primarily on 1) the engine's evaluation of positions and 2) pointing out the blunders and mistakes made by each side. I noticed this a little bit back and I just like how you discuss the ideas behind moves and the meriting / detracting factors they have. It reminds me to look for imbalances in the position and let them tell me how to play. (It helps cement in my mind the need to look for more than tactics / brute threats I can make and try more to improve my weak spots / defend against my opponent's potential ideas) Thanks for the content Sune!

Hi Nathan Thanks for noting :) I am trying to avoid the temptation to show a lot of flashy tactics ;)

Great explanation, great positional game. With f5 and g5 it turned out that minority attack carried the day in the end

[@GMTalks]

Ty very much! Yes Black also has a minority attack (and when it hit's whites king is often in the line of fire).

Well played! It's nice to see how a really strong player completely loses track. Alas I'm more on Linus side of the board, than on yours in my games :-)

[@GMTalks]

Yeah when younger opportunistic players get's frustrated they can lose their way 'completely'
