This channel is fantastic

[@tommytraddles]

Absolutely. The best quality commentary on KZbin.

[@joseraulcapablanca8564]

A very fine win by Gukesh. Great Kalashnikov analysis as ever. Thanks Daniel.

[@pawn4129]

A sign of what is to come in the WCC? Will the Kalashnikov be Gukesh's main tool to challenge Ding if he plays e4? To be continued...

[@LateCloser]

Nice game by Gukesh, did not know he was part of the Kalashnikov club. Now I like him even more! :) GM King's Chessable courses on the Kalashnikov and Anti-Sicilian complement each other incredibly well. I own both. Also have the Kalashnikov book. You can't go wrong if you decide to purchase any of them. My last two games online in rapid were a Kalashnikov against a 2250 and a Smith Morra against an IM. Both wins by following the recommendations of GM King in his courses/book. I didn't even have to really think in the Kalashnikov game. After exiting one of the mainlines in a position I had never played before, I played the first move that came to mind and won easily. Of course, I spent time double checking the soundness of the moves tactically, but the strategic concepts came from the courses/book. So when exit theory, you know the ideas and what to look for.

[@PowerPlayChess]

Do send the games to me!

[@LateCloser]

@@PowerPlayChess Will do.

[@witcher-86]

Another Kalash gem i enjoy, thank you GM King!

[@tennisblood]

Thanks Daniel for bringing this game to us. For the last 55 years I played Taimanov and frequently reached a very similar position to the one in the game. At the final position, instead of 1....e3, my thought was 1....Ng3 right away

[@allanjackson4624]

I don't think you are as good as Gukesh. :P 1... N-g3 2 pxN either pxg3 3 Rxg3 pxg3 4 Kxg3 This is an ending where white has a B +4p vs B a R+2. Material is level and it isn't clear to me who is better. Gukesh's line just checkmates.

[@paulgreen7906]

GM King makes a bid to be a second on Gukesh's team for December! You saw it here first. Daniel make sure your passport is up to date hehe.

[@lenz6293]

Very instructive and convincing, making the Kalaschnikov the excellent weapon in the e4-opening. So, Mr. King, I think I'll order your book as well.

[@ShamaiOfer]

Very instructive - thank you Daniel!

[@oliverangermuller9827]

Could it be that Gukesh has Daniels book or course 🤔

[@dr.deepakgore1079]

[@PaulFurber]

That Ng3 move is such a killer blow.

[@mcronrn]

Very nice!

[@hylen26]

Hmmm. Not many Sicilian variations where Black is ahead in development. Pretty tempting. Love the enthusiastic analysis.

[@Uerdue]

12:22 Even more beautiful is Ng3 immediately :)

[@davidhughes4785]

With my negative 200 ELO rating, I appreciate your cadence being slower than some other chess channels. Even though you voice is at a more leisurely pace, your brain is firing fast and accurately. Thank you for all your videos. I am a casual chess fan, and haven’t read your books, but if your books are like your videos, then they are a must have for serious chess creatures.

[@MarkGraves-y4w]

Daniel I was surprised at Nf6 after the exchanges on d5. I would have expected f5 to start the steamroller sooner. I thought Nf6 was a bit slow as it blocks in the f pawn

[@Forest_Knight]

G's play looks very mature

[@winfredj9820]

indeed

[@RangeWilson]

Hidden poison! With the Queens off, and so few pieces on the board, White could very easily fail to consider the possibility of a mating attack.

[@Ajedrez_90]

Awesome video, as always in this outstanding channel. Mr. King, do you know if the Kalashnikov book is auch in deutsch? 😊

[@PowerPlayChess]

Sorry, it isn't in German.

[@matthewsalzman9034]

He makes it look so easy.

[@ranjanbhatta1292]

seems like GM Gukesh has gone through King's Chessable Kalashnikov Course !

[@tonynewton9972]

My brother-in-law introduced me to your channel back in 2018 & i love watching your videos when i get a chance (single dad now)... I have a query if I may. Have you ever done a video that looks at some of the archaic or culturally different chess peices that are not played today/ in the usual chess games? I was always intrigued by the variant peices & boards from the CHESS VARIANTS web-site & was curious to what you thought of some of them. I know a lot are 'home brew' & probably a little beneath you - but I am curious on your opinion on those cultural or historical variations.

[@PowerPlayChess]

Sorry, not my bag.

[@PauloFucs]

Play imediatly cg3 is not necessário e3.thanks King for the class

[@Calicoo-x4d]

We also want Ding games please

Crushing victory indeed.

[@SoulmateParis]

Fantastic chanel (second) !

[@matthewpaul985]

😂

[@MichaelLorenz]

Please Kagi, buy Mr King a suspended microphone to end the pounding and technically bring his videos into the 21st century!

[@med017784]

Kind a feed up about Kalasnokov but ok. Rather prefer games when he was defeat especially against Mr. Liren … or not
