  • Grandmaster Yasser Seirawan walks us through a riveting game between Levon Aronian and Alexander Grischuk. With how many active pieces are left at the end it's hard to believe that the game ends in a draw.

    Can we petition to get Yasser to read chess books for publishing as audio books? Or just audio books in general? May be his second calling.

      Уважаемый господин гроссмейстер Сейраван!
      Я хочу обратить ваше внимание на одно русскоязычное видео, в котором по моему мнению нарушаются ваши авторские права. Речь идет о видеоролике czcams.com/video/qFjUQ9EhnT0/video.html . В нем один русский "тренер высшей категории" позволяет себе использовать примеры из вашей книги "Шахматный учебник стратегии" (диаграммы 6 и 7) даже без ссылки на источник. То есть, выдавая эти примеры за свои. Кроме того, он продает свой полный "урок" здесь chess-video.ru/product/kurs-2-1_tema-07_perehod-v-endshpil-kak-metod-realizatcii-preimushchestva-shakhmaty/ , где, возможно, использует еще больше примеров из вашей книги.
      Я надеюсь, вы знаете, как поступать в подобных случаях.

      Some criticize GM Seirawan as being condescending with regard to his lecture style. I appreciate his efforts to keep things simple and his lack of foreign accent, which this Southernor greatly appreciates. Trying to "translate" a thick European accent into English is a laborious process for a Texan.

    Any chance you can move the St Louis Chess Club logo to the bottom left of the screen? The bottom right puts it directly over the H1 square. It fits perfectly and unfortunately looks like a piece is on it which makes it distracting. Great lecture though!

    Epic swindle by Grischuk! Whilst the final position was drawish, Grischuk dodged at least 2 winning moves earlier on. Aronian would have had a won position by queenside castling (0-0-0!!) or winning Grischuk's light bishop (Qxc8+!!).
