Countering an inferior Double Corner variation
Vložit
- čas přidán 17. 09. 2021
- In today's checkers video, I analyze a popular checkers variation in the Double Corner opening. This variation is often played by beginner and intermediate players because of the natural developing sequence. However, it is inferior and should be avoided, proving that natural moves on the board sometimes just don't cut it.
I also highlight and provide analysis for two games sent in by a viewer. Thanks for sharing your games with us, Rjexe! Keep up the good work! - Jak na to + styl
Muchas gracias 👍👍
Excelente todo 👍👍
Gracias por compartir tu enseñanza en este juego 👍👍
Saludos desde Panamá 👍👍
Thank you very much, Julio!
Great job my friend
Thank you very much, Watson!
Thank you teacher.. Well explained for the double corner... I have a suggestion, how can someone defeat or even play draw game with this kelso opening variation which begins 10-15, 21-17, 9-13, 17-14 then 15-18 for an exchange or 10-15, 21-17 then 15-18 for exchange? Because it seems very tough to me... Any help please...!!!
Thanks, Samson! I responded to your comment in the previous thread. Here is what I wrote: The 15-18 defense in the Tyne opening (10-15, 21-17, 9-13, 17-14, 15-18) is known as the Frazier defense. It is sound, though largely untested in serious play. The 10-15, 21-17, 15-18 is a very good 3-move opening with a decent amount of scope. Someday I will cover it on this channel.
@@azcheckers Thank you teacher, im eagerly waiting for it
@@samsonthoya4275 15-18 is my preference.
Hey man I'm upset cause I've trained for the tournament and had to work that week so bro I wasn't able to make it. I wanted to ask for time off but I didn't think they'd let me cause it might've got me in some trouble. But other than that, great video as always. 🥺☹️
Manny -- good news! The tournament was postponed until Nov. 12-13 and it will be held in Archdale, North Carolina, which is even closer to you. So, nothing was missed at all! Hopefully you will be able to attend this tournament!
@@azcheckers Omg that's a relief
@@thebigvoice7257 Yes, absolutely! Hopefully you will be able to attend the tournament in November!
What if somebody goes 23-18? After you go 9-14 white forcing you take them? Then what happens bro
Hello! If white plays 23-18 as a counter to 9-14, then we have the weakest opening in all of checkers! It's called the Double Cross, and after the exchange, white must play the *27-18 capture, and then red is extremely strong after either 12-16 or 5-9.
@@azcheckers thanks bro! Check insta :)
@@azcheckers i promise il be on playok later! Its weird times as im in uk aha just dm me and i have notifications back on now
@@azcheckers also i seem to still lost after playing what you said idk think im rushing my play
Why you are not move backwards to correct the coin 😊
I’m a beginner on this game I like it a lot‘I would love to get a app where I can play again computer 💻 or a player to give me proper practice 🙏🙏🙏
Hello and welcome to the game! I know there are a ton of apps available for download, but I have not vetted them and cannot give any recommendations. I can, however, give a recommendation for a great website in which you can play against others. It's playok.com, and it's free to sign up. There are players of all skill levels there, so I think you'll have a good experience. I'd like to hear your feedback if you check it out!
I m also looking for a good computer app so I can make preparations and analysis any ideas?
Dalmax is the best@@adamyusuf9306
The first game is really well played, from my novice eyes
I agree -- the 10-15 is an interesting alternative to the usual 3-7, and I'm glad Rjexe shared it. It would be great to see you two practice against each other!
@@azcheckers I always wondered why tinsley never beat any pool checkers champions? He never entered in pool checker tournaments
@@tonymaurice4157 Is there a lot of cross-over between the games? I can't recall any pool players competing in any of the ACF tournaments in the past couple of decades. Did Buster Smith play in any ACF tournaments?
@@azcheckers I'm not sure if they ever crossed paths.
Would have been interesting to see buster Smith play Marion tinsley or Walter Hellman.
Ryan let's talk about this line soon I have cook move for with on it
Wow! A cook from white's side after the 29-25!? Or a cook showing an even better attack for red?!
God bless you
I appreciate the kind words! More Double Corner variations will be coming soon!
@@azcheckers inshallah
I wish to see you teacher
@@aliasumani5562 I will try to get online this weekend (playok.com), so hopefully we can play some games! I also plan on attending the VA / NC / D4 Open, which is now being held in November in North Carolina.
@@azcheckers I like it
Am ur fan could you please send me a good checkers app link
Thank you very much, Mustafa! I don't currently play on any apps, but I know there are many available. Rjexe can share the apps he used in his games, and I know others can chime in as well. I do play on playok.com, which is free to register and join.
@@azcheckers appreciated
@@mustafaabdalla3242 Of course! If you do have any games you would like to share, whether it's from an app or against another player, I am happy to feature them on this channel!
Natural moves are deceiving
You are absolutely correct, Marcus! Differentiating between good and sound natural moves and inferior / losing natural moves can be extremely difficult. There is another variation in the Paxton Defense (which I will show later on) in which the natural moves are actually losing moves!
First my bro!
Thank you again for sharing some of your games!
@@azcheckers all good buddy! Wel send more with different variations of starts!
@@rjexe1713 Very good -- I hope my analysis for your games helped! We're all learning and improving in this great game, myself included!
@@azcheckers cheers ryan appreciate lots! Gonna keep looking at this over. Would love to learn that weird opening the ai did your fav opener
@@rjexe1713 Thank you! Yes, I'll cover that 9-13, 23-19, 11-16 opening in my next video -- the two games you shared here are very interesting and instructive!
