Friedel vs. IM Thavandiran, 2017 Chicago Open | Strategy Session - GM Josh Friedel

[@Narrowcros]

Very instructive, I like this guy even more than Ben. He's not just teaching how beginners improve, but he's also teaching you how strong players think.

[@abebuckingham8198]

Every word out of Friedel's mouth is an idea about the game. Ben jokes as filler when he has nothing to say and often simply moves past important moments in a game without comment. Friedel has a conversation about almost every move. So much more insightful.

You are better than most of my teachers 👨‍🏫

[@Anderson-S-Garcia]

Absolutely excellent lesson! Nice language, clear explanations, gives deep info about that type of positions. Keep them coming please.

[@brabhamfreaman166]

Masterclass in positional chess, and great honesty in the difficulty of playing subtle positional games.

You make the "grasping" of ideas very enjoyable.
