      It's a cheap board, but those look like Fischer/Spassky Staunton pieces.

      I really like these videos, but it amuses me that the author has the same board as me. Yes, it's not expensive, but it is of decent quality and looks good enought. Where's the problem? My piece set is a different one, though.

    Sir, as a bottom dwelling lobster (ELO 1200 - 1300) looking up and snapping futilely at the fishes and sharks swimming above me I soooooooo appreciate you breaking things down into small and easily understood concepts. The non GM players of the world thank you!

    I got this position the other night from the "worse" side and knew it was a draw because my opponent had a g-pawn. I was mindful of this video as I was playing the endgame.

    I saw Naka do this is a blitz game on his stream. He moved the rook back and forth on the back rank while white marched his King and pawn forward. Unfortunately for white it was a Knight pawn and Naka forced the draw.

    Hey. Cool last name. Reminds me of Bartholomew from Don't Be A Menace In South Central hehe. Anyways, I WISH every video had this type of set up. I don't like diagrams as much. I always use a real set. Your videos have a perfect cam set up, offer 1080p and it feels like a GM is sitting in from of me. PLEASE keep making these vids and dont sell out to diagrams! :) You might want to get your foot in and actually, check your inbox.

    Jerry just made a video on this, with a digital board, it's also really instructive (and slightly expanded on this one, it's the complete philidor position). It's one of his recent uploads in his beginner to master playlist, very nice playlist to check out if you like stuff like this.
