Thank you!! Great video. Great presentation! I lost a game as Black today against this. Somehow I had never seen or heard of it before then. 6...Qe7+ !! Yes!

[@kamarulazizi5266]

I won a tournament using the caro kann 4 times thanks to your vids! Please keep posting more of these 🤗

[@Chessfactor]

Congratulations on your victories with the Caro-Kann Opening. We are happy to hear that we could assist you with our videos.

[@blazeinbow19]

I have been watching many of your videos over the last couple weeks, this channel is a goldmine of chess educational content; it is truly an injustice that this channel doesn't have many more views and subscribers, but thank you so much for giving all the information at a free price! I'm currently 1550 USCF, and trying my best to get to 1700 by 2023, I think this channel will help me get there!

did u get there ?

[@pickle47100]

I like the presentation very much! Was looking for information on this gambit and was pleasantly surprised by this. Very clear explanation. Thanks.

[@Chessfactor]

Glad to hear that!

[@bulentkirca3311]

[@Chessfactor]

Good to hear that!

[@user-wq3ji9oq9j]

Very nice as usual, thank you.

[@Chessfactor]

Thanks!

[@Sendobren]

Thank you for the videos! Will you ever talk about the giuoco pianissimo variations?

[@Chessfactor]

Basically we already have created a video that covers the Giuoco Pianissimo variation. That video is part of the Italian Game series that you can find on our website chessfactor.com. Check it out!

Great video. How often do you think players use the Scotch Gambit. Like how common is it?

[@Chessfactor]

It is very hard to estimate how often players use the Scotch Gambit. What we can tell you is that it is a common played opening. On lichess there are some stats available based on their database and there you can compare the Scotch Gambit against other openings. Hope that information helps you.

@@Chessfactor Thank you!

[@DaydreamVacations]

Do you have a video that covers 4…d6? 1e4-e5 2Nf3-Nc6 3Bc4-Nf6 4d4-d6

[@fritzgw7094]

Please include a small chess window other than the physical chess piece for an easier view, just like what you did on the anti-liver video. thank you.

[@bulentkirca3311]

Thank you for this video and the others which complete the Italian scope. After several months of practice with all of your videos that I looked at, I came to my final conclusion that this white-green board is much better than the cream-brown one. Could you please inform Andrey too to use this white-green one. Thank you.

[@Chessfactor]

Great to hear that you practiced with our videos for a longer period! We hope that you could improve your chess knowledge. What finally led to your preference for green-white board over the wooden board?

[@bulentkirca3311]

@@Chessfactor White-green colored board is much clearer and compatible with the lighting around the board.

[@TheBullets91]
