    Great video! I would like to see more lectures where the focus is pawn structure. I also give my suggestion to the next episode: Botvinnik Triangle (or Botvinnik System) in the English Opening.

    Great job Jonathan! More pawn structure lectures please! I would love seeing lectures on all of them! :-)
    For me, a nice thematic continuation would be the closed Sicilian.

    The panov-botvinnik attack would be a great follow up as the pawn structure occurs so often.
    Though I would like to see the stonewall system as it is sometimes hard for me to crack the setup if I face it.

    That last move Nh1!! dropped my jaw for minutes. Awesome finish.
    BTW, not that it matters much but I think Jonathan said "put my rook here at h6" (time 36:07) but its actually the bishop. Hehe, or maybe I heard it wrong.
    Great video. I have hard times against the Sicilian Defense and maybe this is a good shot against it.

    Really would have been beneficial to spend a few seconds on why 16. f5 is fine tactically at 16:33.
    At first glance white gives up a pawn with 16. ...gxf5 17. exf5 Bxf5 and white has to see the move 18. b4 to save it.

    Some suggestions for future pawn structure lectures:

    "French IQP" (where the side playing against the IQP has a c pawn instead of an e pawn)
    hanging pawns
    Carlsbad structure

    One error report: "Maróczy" should be pronounced like [ marooche ] not the way that i hear here [ maroksy / maroxy ]. It's a surname with hungarian/polish origin and "ó" is pronounced like long "u" or "oo" and "cz" is a phoneme that is pronounced like english "ch" in cherokee :).
    I'm just trying to expand your vast knowledge at the time learning of Maróczy Gambit :)
    Thank You!

    I have a endgame position with 2 questions
    position is white kf7 and g7 and black kd5 Re1
    1 can black to move and win
    and suppose black let the pawn queened and mistakenly lost his rook afterwards and white ran out of time before mating black
    2 is this draw by out of time and insufficient materials or win for black
    plz reply by comments or on by future video

    • @MK-13337
      @MK-13337 Před 7 lety +1

      If it's a pawn on g7 black can't win. He can draw with Rg1 and Rxg8. And for your second question, if it's just a white king and a queen versus a lonely black king it's a draw if white runs out of time. If black has 1 minor piece vs a queen, it's still a draw, as black can't mate white by any means. If black has a pawn or a rook, it's a win for black.

    • @tanmaychopra4239
      @tanmaychopra4239 Před 6 lety +1

      Matti Kauppinen - if there is a knight vs queen and the player with the queen runs out of time then the player with the knight would win because king and knight can win from a king and queen. Imagine the position white -king a6, Nc4 and black-king A8 and Qb8 and its white to move then white can simply win by Nb6# but this is not possible in case of bishop . let's imagine the same position with a bishop with white to move . white can not win because when he tries to mate black with Bd5+ black can play Qb7 and white has to take the queen on b7 with Bxb7+ and now we reach a position with king and bishop vs king which is a draw

      Phan Anh makes no difference; if it's something you want to learn from, you can.
      The only way I'd recommend not watching it is if you know everything being said already, at which point your rating probably isn't an issue.

    Wouldn't it be great if chess lecturers would stop saying the phrase 'a move like' when it's a suggestion for a single move. Black doesn't want to 'play a move like b5' he wants to 'play b5'. Everyone does it and it is slightly annoying!

    • @schach420
      @schach420 Před 7 lety +1

      What he means is b5 generally, but not necessarily on the next move. Maybe he should just say that then?

    • @bonerici
      @bonerici Před 7 lety +3

      in the maroczy bind white will sometimes stop you from playing b5 but b5 is just a pawn break so you could also play f5 and sometimes e6 and d5 or f5 so when he says a move "like b5" he means b5 or d5 or f5 or other words all the possible pawn breaks. there are some variations where b5 is the only pawn break that's when you should say black wants to play b5

    • @josketobben
      @josketobben Před 7 lety

      +James Alvarez I disagree. Language just isn't always literal. (Even though the others point out there still literal meaning in this specific phrasing.) It stopped bothering me once I realized most information in social interaction is conveyed through tone and body language anyway, slight logical inefficiency is really no biggie.
      If you like your language always literal, maybe take up a programming language?

    • @jamesa54321
      @jamesa54321 Před 7 lety

      If 'most information in social interaction is conveyed through tone and body language' then I may as well listen to the lecture in Chinese right? I have no problem with logically processing the meaning, I am just saying it is slightly annoying, as is my prerogative!
