      +TimurTolibayev Yes.. I didn;t notice that until read the comments. Some of the Masters of the game tend to idolize their wins more.

    Besdies the fact that it was a very good game on your part especially, I really like these videos as you make a swift and very instructive transition from the openings to middlegame strategy. I especially like that you point out the ideas and objectives for both sides starting from the opening. Thank you and I'm looking forward to more videos like this!

    Great video. I really wish you were a commentator on more games. Great humility on your part to present a losing game. This video was very instructive, entertaining, and needless to say a true demonstration of beautiful chess on behalf of both players. The King's Indian will never be the same :)

    Hi Dereque, thanks for sharing the game, it was truly both spectacular and breathtaking. I cannot but applaud your ability to cope with what must have been a devastating loss and to further provide us with such a detailed analysis. Take care.

    Dereque, I appreciate your willingness to share with us a game in which you were beaten. So many youtubers only want to show us their victories, which is so misleading. You have proven to us that you are humble and take joy in studying both your victories and losses. Thanks for the clear,, concise, and concrete analysis of the moves played, the ideas behind said moves, and the possible sidelines which could have been played. I thoroughly enjoyed your presentation. Thanks so much. I have learned much.

    I can hardly believe it. I first played against Nick Raptis when he was a D player -- he was 14 at the time. Only a few years later, before he was even out of high school, he thoroughly thrashed me. ;-) Very cool to see how successful he has become.

Personally, I'd love to see, in order of preference, the Nimzo-Indian, Queen's Indian, Pirc, and English. Really appreciated your videos on these openings, and the strongest reply to d4 video.

    My goodness! Your narrative ability to communicate the game is unparalleled. I have enjoyed your videos for some time now, and am only just now getting this one. So impressed and thankful for your outstanding and highly educational videos. I sometimes wonder: do you think about chess in precisely the ways you talk about it in your videos? Or is your immediate grasp of the game more automatic? I mean that: in your videos you speak in such a measured yet accessible way; is your internal experience across the board similar, or more automatic? I marvel at the grasp of high-level players such as yourself, and am curious what your experience is like as you play the game. :)

    • @KebuChess
      @KebuChess  Před 7 lety +2

      Thank you!! These are tremendously kind words to receive! I shared the first few sentences on Facebook, this was really a treasure and a delight to read! My thinking procceses really vary depending on a lot of factors - caffeine use or the lack thereof, recent social experiences (or the lack thereof :o), whatever's going on at the time. Usually I suspect it's highly intuitive but in tournaments I sometimes experiment with more regimented ways of thinking. My favorite is Botvinnik's suggestion to think about tactics/caclulation on your turn, and strategy while the opponent's clock is going. But it really varies. Thank you again for the kind words, it's so much appreciated! And wecome!!! :)

    • @speekosloff

  • @elismith7494
    @elismith7494 Před 8 lety +2

    After black plays pawn to e5, why doesn't white respond with d5 first before castling? It seems that by allowing the knight to reach c6 and then playing d5, white is helping black's development. Thanks for the video

    • @KebuChess
      @KebuChess  Před 8 lety +4

      It is an excellent question. Black's best strategy is to play ...a5 and ...Na6-c5 in response to this early d5 which is known as the "Petrosian Variation". Black ends up getting superior counterplay and counterchances when he's able to position the knight on c5 rather than having to play it to c6 and then e7 where the knight remains stuck for sometime. Often times Black gets pressure against e4 and can still play for ...f7-f5. Thank you for watching!

  • @RedKnight-fn6jr
    @RedKnight-fn6jr Před 9 lety

    What a game! Although you lost eventually, you fought very nicely to the end and I’ve learned a lot regarding ideas for both sides in the Classical King’s Indian. Another idea for Black is to play a5 - this was played against a Petrosian Line that I used as White - I replied a4 and was crushed after Black made good use of the c5 square for his Knight - perhaps I should have played a3 and b4 to kick the Knight instead.

    • @KebuChess
      @KebuChess  Před 9 lety

      Thanks, I'm happy to hear you found it interesting! I love the King's Indian...for White!! :) and am familiar with many of those things you are speaking of. Good luck in your future games, and thanks again!

  • @sleepy4x
    @sleepy4x Před 8 lety +1

    Very interesting game. And respectable, that you showed us a lost game of yourself. In the Kings Indian white often stands better and has a space adavantage, but black has good tactical chances. White can easily go wrong. I don't like the KID and avoid to play it with each colour, because it is hard for me to handle it right. Thanks a lot, Dereque.

    • @KebuChess
      @KebuChess  Před 8 lety

  • @jessebanwell5705
    @jessebanwell5705 Před 4 lety

    Great video, as always! As you pointed out along the way, both players made several mistakes. I am wondering about white's first mistake, which was moving bishop to e1 (@22:45). As you stated, Rg1 would have been better, especially since you use the bishop to capture shortly thereafter, making the move to e1 pointless in the end. My question for you is, why did you move Be1? Were you providing cover to the pawn on b4 so you could free up the knight on d3? Or was there a different reason? I also think Be1 was not the best move because it blocks the queen and rook connection. Thanks for the great video Krishna!

    12:48 in Stockfish, white knight is not played in Ne1 instead developing his pawns or bishop, if black plays Nd7 and F5, white plays Ng5 and jump to Ne6.

    • @KebuChess
      @KebuChess  Před 7 lety

      This is a position where Stockfish's judgement is probably not helpful. It's a very interesting idea, and some players have tried like this, but the position requires foresight of a strategic nature which many computers struggle with (not many tactical interactions) Thank you Jonellski for stopping by, it's much appreciated!!

    @charlieh4323 Před 8 lety

    What a fun game! I'm curious - early on is it not worth it for white to play dxe when black plays e5? is added the control over the open d file + tactically winning the pawn back good for black?

    • @KebuChess
      @KebuChess  Před 8 lety

      Nope, this is well known to cause issues for White in the long run and he even has a minus score. It has something to do with that bishop on e2 and pawn on c4 getting in each other's way and the long-term vulnerability of the d4-square for an occupation by Black. Black has good chances of the Initiative if White plays dxe5 :)

      You're not wrong. He already replied to someone else in the comments with the same idea. Nice catch.

    Excuse me, when white plays g3 (in 23:00 minutes) why not black plays f3 atacking the bishop? thank you and sorry for my bad english.

      Your English is superb :) ...f3 can be met by gxh4 (forced) ...fxe2 Qxe2 (forced) when White is ahead a pawn and the king is safe :)

    utter catastrophe :P out of interest, could white have first: pin the 2 knights to queen with Bg5, then Qd2and then attack the bishop with Bh6? attack the king side? or would that take too much time?

      This strategy is occasionally used for White in the King's Indian. :)

    I used to not think much of the Kings Indian Defense as a white player, until one day I was playing an 1800 rated player and I didnt know the typical queenside counterplay plans for white in the kings indian so i got ripped to shreds on the kingside. The Kings Indian is a very dangerous weapon for black and while I dont play it myself bc it doesnt fit my style, it is very easy to get crushed by it. To this day I rarely play 4. e4 systems against it and sometimes play 2. Nf3 instead of 2. c4; not to avoid the Nimzo Indian or anything like that, just the Kings Indian

    What about Pawn H4 at the end would that have saved you?

  • @Toxie207
    @Toxie207 Před 9 lety

    At 27:30 it seems to me that the tactic Nxc7 fails to Rxc7 and if d6+ then you missed ... c4! counter-attacking the white queen. Oops!

      @KebuChess  Před 9 lety

      +Toxie207 Oops indeed! Good catch!

      Names are used frequently in chess circles but I'd prefer not to give any further commentary about where he's from because maybe he wouldn't like that, I don't really know! hi from Seattle though! :) -Krishna
