Love your videos!

[@Lazerator]

Great video!

[@Reza090]

I’ve been waiting for the Italian game for so long.. please add follow ups if possible..ThinS was very helpful as I always get stuck just after a few moves in the Italian.

[@aminshafiee7066]

Thanks teacher

[@HenryRobin89]

Love your vids and your whole teaching style. Can I make a suggestion for a video? I am currently playing a game around 2000 level online where I think I pushed the wrong pawn in an endgame/ late middle game and it tipped the balance against me. I often get this wrong with pawns and it's costly. Video on pushing pawns in late game?

[@GMIgorSmirnov]

Great suggestion! We will make a note of it for future videos.

[@simonfarmer4005]

Yeah I like this idea because quite often it can be simple to reach the endgame with a superior position and material balance and still lose/draw. Perhaps a lot of it is experience and less about theory but it would be interesting to see Igor's take on it as I find his video's easy to understand and enjoyable to watch.

[@davidlamarca899]

You are a very good teacher...very clear explained your strategies without bullshit..and many new ideas that no one have seen before👌would be great some private live lessons but cannot be possible...surely you are living in USA ...anyway...my compliment and thanks again...thanks...merci...grazie

[@GMIgorSmirnov]

Hey David, glad you liked the videos from Igor. Igor does not take private students right now. You can check out Igor's teachings here. online.chess-teacher.com/

[@Huislife-s3g]

Thank you Igor! At 9:25, what if they play Kg7?

[@xchg8011]

Love these type of videos , can you make a similar video or even a series on the g6 modern or pirc

[@reydemayo8906]

Great Video tutorial for amateur level. Can i request for end game tutorial. Thank you...

[@GMIgorSmirnov]

Here is a video about the Endgame that will help you. kzbin.info/www/bejne/e4uVhp-nhLNgZqc

[@nonskategaming9827]

Hey Igor! This is a great video and it’s very helpful because I play the Italian but I think it would also be a good idea to make a video on the Ponziani

[@GMIgorSmirnov]

Hey thanks for the comment. Igor has made on video on Ponziani traps. Here it is kzbin.info/www/bejne/m4mXqamImLGmjKs

[@nonskategaming9827]

@@GMIgorSmirnov Thanks for the video link!

[@RamKumar-gy9nb]

Please create more videos on unusual openings. I cant find the video which you made few days ago for both White and Black. If you have it, kindly change its title or paste it here. Thank you

[@chimbiepaladin4629]

That video was really fun

[@chessbulletschannel5889]

[@andersjonsson8403]

Wow! Igor Smirnov the Italien Opening Master! Thank You soo much for this excellent video! 😊👍♟

[@BobChess]

This is video is so good. I make me become Italian

[@cikonianiggra1415]

Briliant.

[@GoldenBoyXCM]

0:30 is a mistake. 4 knight italian is a mistake black should play Nxe4 and solve all of his opening problems, white cant allow this.

[@HistoryonYouTube]

It is a bit late for coffee where I am!

[@trumplostlol3007]

The problem is castling by black. Black shouldn't castle too early.

[@ortialni7]

What if black doesn't castle? Executing the plan works only when they castle. I'm the one endangering myself in other cases.

[@gabrielknight553]

I dont understand, i ask you manny questions and you never answer me back...And i realy need your help. im stock

[@mb59621]
