    That tip at 2:54 makes so much sense. I'm guessing the logic is that since we're trading our dark square bishop, it would make sense to open up our own light squares for our light square bishop. Plus, it might also weaken any attacks by our opponent's dark square bishop. Thanks for the tip man and keep up the great videos

    I really don't think players below 1600 should be playing 10 minute games with a coach. There's a lot to do in each and every position and a low rated player won't do those things quickly. They are likely to even ignore some things if they feel pressured on time.
