[@jeffersonparsons5519]

Nice game. I find it fascinating how many different ways the Pirc can transform in a game. Lately, I only play the KID/Pirc or Czech Pirc. I should be getting bored, but the variety of positions I end up in is enough to keep me stimulated. I actually just won a game this morning with the black pieces using the approach you described. I kept it simple and kept an eye open for a chance to transform the position into a winning endgame. Before your lessons, my strategy was always to checkmate at all costs. Thanks for everything you are doing, and keep it coming!

[@EnriqueNuesch]

wow, man! that endgame was so instructive. thank you very much, I have improved a lot with your lessons, and Pirc/KID became my favourite response as black.

Rob, I learn so much from your videos. Thank you! I played a game recently I'm really proud of. See PGN below. I played white. 5. g4... and 6. Qd2... were both intentional. I saw on move 4 if I could clear his c8 bishop out I could trap his queen. It was a risk but my opponent took the pawn and knight as bait. Regardless if he hadn't taken the bait, I'm pleased I was able to spot the tactic in the first place. Good thing, too, because I only had 7.9 seconds left when I got the checkmate! Thank you again! I never miss a video! 1. e4 c5 2. Nc3 Na6 3. Nf3 g6 4. d4 d6 5. g4 Bxg4 6. Qd2 Bxf3 7. Bb5+ Qd7 8. Bxd7+ Kxd7 9. O-O Bh6 10. Qd3 Bh5 11. Bxh6 Nxh6 12. Qe3 Ng4 13. Qf3 Nh6 14. Qh3+ e6 15. Nd5 Rac8 16.

Great and instructive video Robert. I like to see that making the videos is also useful for you and not just for us.

My side I have been studying openings in more detail and trying to remember more lines and my winrate has improved a lot. Thanks to you! Also say thanks to your wife because she's okay letting you spending time to make videos for us :)

You got it, Leonardo! I really appreciate your kind words 🙌 Keep training consistently and enjoy the process. This project has certainly been a great experience for me and it has helped me brush up on my game as well as getting the motivation to play in tournaments again. I had been out for 3 years and even though this tournament did not go that great (5 out of 9), it made me get back into consistent training and playing. Now, I am looking forward to a tournament in November and if possible another one in October 💪

[@thejames666]

Coach, when you get a bishop-queen battery lining up to challenge your fianchettoed bishop in front of your king, what’s the best way to handle it? It’s so annoying! Thanks. Love the videos.

[@mormonmormonchik4745]

Thank you for this video!!!

[@jumpingship3001]

All that you tell us about the pirc has happened with me. My board vision is amazing, accuracy wow. I'm watching how my opponent answers to my moves and judge them. My bishops and knights move with freedom. I replay the games from my opponent's perspective, they're left with few options. Funny how the pirc gives them a chance to move both pawns up then they've not practiced playing that way. Thanks

[@dhruvverma6460]

Btw, I've been playing not so good against the samisch and the mongoklov (the h3-g4 plan of white vs the kid is called something like that), because I bad at queenside expansion... So, I was trying to improve my queenside plays, and I soon encountered an agadmator video on tal, where he plays the benko. I like the queenside expansion, and thought that I should try the benko as I can get to practice queenside expansion that I can use to improve my game against the samisch. It worked! Now I feel like a more complete player. I still play the benko occassionally to further improve my QS play. I chose the benko because I seen that black almost always gets to expand on the queenside, while if I practiced my QS expansion in the kid, I would not be able to practice much expansion against the classical or fianchetto

[@lorenzodavila8261]

Awesome video! I really appreciate this as this is my main opening on black. I'm not sure if anyone asked but what about NC4 instead of trading queens? Defending your queen and attacking theirs. Does that walk into a tricky line?

[@Nino-bu9mj]

thanks for the lessons

[@NMRobertRamirez]

You are more than welcome 👍

[@kerryjane4175]

Queen on a5 is hanging so must be moved or defended first. If queens traded King must take or d4 hanging. White has no light squared bishop, developing Knight on d7 will be a discovered attack on h3. If King takes in trade c3 would cause King to take or bxc3 looses the Rook or have a past pawn on b2 so I think the trade of queens in this situation is a good move

[@NMRobertRamirez]

Hello! Thanks a lot for sharing your answers! 🙌👍

[@rogerbruce2896]

I am a very low level. In my games if I try to play the pirc defense, after I bring my knight out the whites kings pawn will move to e5 90% of the time and I never know what to do in that case. It usually ends up bad for me.

[@leroybarlow7468]

Good explanation

[@KrolGaming]

Oh yeah, another pirc lesson. I love it

[@dragadeyt]

For first one, I’m thinking Qc7 since he can’t castle queenside and kingside is opened, his king is stuck in the middle so exchanging queens helps him. Qa4 just gets kicked by Nc3.

[@NMRobertRamirez]

Thanks a lot for sharing your answer, Dhananjay! 👍

[@toddgorman2512]

Robert I just broke 1100 :-) It took me a while but I am learning that move order is really important. And going back and re-re-re-watching some of the variations. I crushed the Austrian attack twice tonight on players over 100pts higher than me. Felt good. Funny thing is earlier in the week.. i dipped to a 6 month low of 925.. and I went back and re-watched serveral vidoes and I think I am 14w 2L 1D in last few days. Thanks!

[@NMRobertRamirez]

Excellent! 💪 And yes, That is normally how it goes. Now you will struggle for a bit before breaking through 1200, but eventually you will adjust. Just keep it up 😎

[@slingshotchicken4695]

It takes a lot of focus and the ability to jump around when learning from Robert. He will go off on tangents and then go back and forth. I'm not sure if there's a more systematic approach to teaching chess. I have learned from the videos regardless.

[@slingshotchicken4695]

It's one thing to be in the middle of one game and then jump to others, it's a serious problem when you distract so egregiously from completing the originally intended project! Are you ADD or ADHD Robert? The tangents are all over the place and you went so far off the path I found myself seeking a game you seemed to have just left behind, and you skipped off the game and went out there for about ten minutes before getting back on track. A student needs to be kept focused with a few main points and then perhaps one game with minimal subsets. Your teaching style is a little random and tangential, almost as if it's intentional to keep the secrets to yourself or obfuscated behind tangents, all while saying it's for our own good. It seems odd. I might add in addition to the tangents you will then move from far too slowly with three or four explanations that need to be minimized to rapid-fire moving where there's no way to learn at all, the moves are just too fast at that point. Overall, it's a bit messy and it takes more than should be required of a student, some of that's on the teacher. I won't give up yet but I will check to see if my learning style matches up with other teachers as well. Gotham Chess and Eric Rosen are also good but I find combining Robert with them to be useful, however scattered some of the Ramirez efforts can be.

[@NMRobertRamirez]

Hello! If you have been following this course from the beginning and in order, you should have developed the necessary skills to follow along. When you study from a Chess book for example, you will often see sidelines and variations that will make you deviate from the main line and then you have to get back to it. But of course, that's something you are supposed to deal with at the right time. At the beginning of the course, many lessons were straight to the point and lasted around 15 minutes, but this is lesson # 110 already. With that said, the best thing to do is what you mentioned. There are so many great people out there teaching Chess. You just need to find what works best for you and enjoy the process. Take care and enjoy life 😎👍

[@tpiano1165]

Hey, Robert! I just can't decide between the pirc and the czech pirc! Which one do you recommend for a tournament?

[@NMRobertRamirez]

Hello! It would depend mainly on how much time you have to prepare for the tournament. If it is coming up soon (less than a moth) I would stick to the Czech Pirc because it is easier to learn and implement. The regular Pirc is more dynamic and offers more to Black, but it also requires more preparation. For the Czech, just make sure you review the material from lessons # 51, 53 and 57 👍
