    One and a half thousand views? A one hour video on one of the most complicated openings? My friend, you deserve so much more! Thank you! ;D

  • @williamhuynh869
    @williamhuynh869 Před měsícem

    Thanks Volclus. As a Keres Defense player, I often transpose into the Nimzo if my opponent plays a favorable line for black, like the Samisch. This will help bolster my own analysis into my openinga.

    I’ve watched so many of your ultimate guide videos. My favorites are the Caro-Kann, Queens Gambit and the Budapest Gambit. Can you make video on how to beat the English opening?

  • @BrawlhallaBoy
    @BrawlhallaBoy Před měsícem

    in the normal line c6 is a bit too slow you have to go c5 and d5 immediately unless white will get pawn e4 alot, after c5 retraeting your bishop to e7 is fine.

    39:57 i think he skipped many moves after this 😅

  • @sealandball3043
    @sealandball3043 Před měsícem

    Why does it violently skip so much moves at around 40:00 o - o ;
    Could you write the moves until that position?

    • @mathousbs
      @mathousbs Před měsícem

      dxc5 Bxc5 (if Bg5 there is Bxf2+ Kxf2 and Ng4+ regaining the piece with interest) Nf3 b6 (now that they played Nf3 you want to control e4 and there won’t be any f3 ideas anymore) Bg5 and Bb7.
