Excellent stuff. I'm going to use these videos to help teach my kid chess so she can see some fancy footwork for inspiration. I make sure to keep the pressure low and tell her not to try to play like the greats until you have the vision for it.

for me the reti variations are the most faszinating and interesting kind of games. they feel so dynamic

[@dr.rangarajc9691]

Zukertort games are also similar

"Of course taking that pawn would be a blunder because..." Me: Wait what?

[@MightySuki]

Me on every move 😂

[@whoisbhauji]

excellent game - however, it seemed that it was his middlegame play that won him the game?

[@gaopinghu7332]

This kind of middlegame would never happen without this kind of opening. That's why this is an "opening of the future."

[@YingTou1]

(2:05 - 2:40) Given Black's wish to defend the pawn on d4 by playing c5, why doesn't he head off White's b4 by playing c5 first instead of Bg7 (2:06)? -

[@chesswisdom]

Probably he didn't expect 6. b4.

A model hyper modern game. From the beginning Reti exerted his pressure on the center and the enemy position in order to prevent any black pawns from firmly holding the center, and forcing the black knight ultimately to a passive e6 square. Once he gained control over the center with his pieces, he cemented it with his pawns, and in exchange for allowing his enemy knight to have the decent c5 square, much like Capablanca said of his famous hanging pawns game with Bernstein (1914), hanging pawns that are blockaded are not simultaneously susceptible to major piece attacks, so Reti’s only real “weakness” (Pc4) was double blockaded by two knights, and thus he could successfully exert pressure on the center in tandem with his queen side play to induce enough Black weaknesses to have a winning endgame. Thanks as always. Good day
