My name is Sean Lei and I am a Canadian Chess National Master. If you have any questions about the game, or about chess in general, just leave a comment and I would be happy to answer all of them!
If you want your game analyzed, you may send them to the email seanleichessdevelopment@gmail.com for me to make a video analyzing your game.
What do you think should be video ideas for Monday?
One viewer has already suggest me analyzing some of your games, and I think that's a pretty good idea.
What do you think? Tell me in the comment section below!
On mondays, You can make vids analyzing your favourite chess games or any gm games
Just Like you know Agadmator does (i m not sure if i spelt the name correctly but yeah)
@@apoorvbansal5956 I definitely know him! Ahh, so many good ideas
Glad I won the lucky draw. I know you won't pronounce my name as bad as you thought 😅
You know what'd be a fun idea? :) ......QIYU ZHOU VS SEAN LEI!!! Duh dun da da! Oh no he didn't! Oh yes I did! Remember you read it first in the comment section of this video!
@@tyrelljeffries2527 haha
Very helpful, thank you so much and greetings from Germany
did you ever post a vid on how to stop that fianchetto?
I found your channel because I was looking into the colle-zukertort system. Love how you expain everything so well! Could u make a video or explain in some way how to react to Ne4 and to early bishop to Bf5 of Bg4. Those are moves opponents like to play and my position seems to crumble because of it... Thanks for the video’s Sean!
The early bishop moves are in the second part of the series! If you need any more explanations, I'm happy to answer any questions you have.
Colle Zuckertort part II
Thanks Sean, once again, for an amazing video and answering our most important questions, however before you move on to c4 I'd also like to know the following:
1. What do we do when we play b3 to prevent c4 and our opponent plays b5, the c3 move you were talking about in one of your previous videos?
2. What do we do when our opponent plays Nd7 followed by f7 kicking our knight on the outpost (I normally just trade knights)
3. When if ever do we bring our knight on d2 to f3?
4. What do we do when our opponent constructs an outpost of his own with his knight but this time supported with his Bishop obstructing our light Bishop's diagonal? Don't ask me how he gets this right but at times he does....
Will add these to the second tips and tricks video for the Colle! Unlike the Philidor the Colle doesn’t have any scary variations to cover so I can answer questions like these in future instalments!
@@SLChessDevelopment Oh and for the Philidor can you please cover the very scary Whale variation and the very annoying three pawn attack?
@@tyrelljeffries2527I believe I have done the three pawn attack already :)
@@SLChessDevelopment I think the one you are talking about is the anti- Philidor which transposes from the King's gambit. However, the one that I am referring to is very similar. Basically, instead of pawns on whites pawns on d, e, and f they are now on c, d, and e. White likes to advance his d pawn to d5 and back it up with c4. I realized on posting the previous comment that the 3 pawn attack and the Whale are basically the same thing as the Whale basically transposes into the 3 pawn attack, but in my game my opponent had an extra pawn on f4. So basically I was facing an anti- Philidor/ 3 pawn attack hybrid which was very scary, unfortunately I dunno what I did with this game.
Although the 3 pawn attack is scary the traps that emerge from the Scotch Gambit against the Philidor are just downright terrifying!
Thank you for your CZ lessons. I now use it almost exclusively as white. Can you provide me a written list of the tips in this video?
Sean-please make a Colle video for the black pieces in their opening. Thanks.
to counter my own opening o.o
Anti colle is very effective
I gave this a shot just now in an online game. Forgot about the a3 move. Learned very quickly why it's important.
Hahaha! A important lesson to learn :)
Very interesting system. Found it on another channel and got here in my further searches. Thanks!
Monday idea. Ask your supporters to provide you with games and you could use them as an open coaching vid. I know I would welcome seeing others Colle Zuk games with your insights.
Woah, great idea! I already have a couple games I critique from viewers! Just need to make videos on them!!
I like waiting for them to move their light square bishop, then get my Queen to B3, take their pawn on B2 if possible. If their queen has moved you can take their rook and check the King, if they haven't moved their queen it forces them to keep it there to guard the rook. I'm pretty noob, and it's a good tactic vs other noobs at least lol.
You answered my first question right away: after 1. d4, c5! The Old Benoni. Stockfish says push to 2. d5, but I'd prefer to stick to the system with e3, as you showed us. The closest I've played this is as Black with the Tartakower against 1.d4. I like it even better as White. Thanks.
Yup! Just because the engine says it's better, doesn't mean it's better for YOU. Play what you know and you'll be playing at rating points higher than your average!
Thank you Sean. I have just started playing and using the Colle Zuk and finding your vids awesome. Can't wait for the 3rd one. Again thank you!
Glad you enjoyed! I’m actually really surprised people are learning from these 🙀
Thanks a lot. Great content.
1:03 1. d4 c5 don't push d4
2:00 pawn b3 to avoid pushing ..c4
2:44 a3 move when .. Nc6
3:46 c4 when early bishop move to f5
5:49 After .. Nf6 and pawn .. g6
6:34 After xx. Ne5 Nxe5
8:49 Early take c5xd4 always take with e3xd4
Any idea why lichess doesn’t have opening themed puzzles for the colle zukertort opening? What am i missing?
Hi and thanks for this amazing videos about the colle-zukertort. You mention a video about knight f6 and pawn g6 as the first moves for black but I cant find this video....please post the link. Thanks
I have the same question -- I feel like I'm left hanging with anticipation! Great video, I'd love to know what to do about pawn g6.
Sean, I love this video! I love the CZ. But did you ever do a video (like you mentioned in this CZ part 2 video) on how to play the CZ against g6/kid? If not, then that would be an amazing video please - as I need help with CZ against g6/kid. Thank you so much.
Nice ❤
You never made a follow up video, what do you do when they fianchetto the bishop on g7?
Hi Sean, you mention other upcoming vids for the Colle Z system like playing it against the KID but I can't find them on your play list. Did you ever get round to making them? Thanks!
Such a versatile system. I think I'll start playing it more! Maybe mondays could be about endgames? More difficult mating patterns, pawn endgames etc. Looking forward to whatever you decide.
Endgames aren’t really my forte though I could show cool ones! Mating puzzles are definitely an idea as well!
Great video, thank you.
On Mondays play a Lichess tournament showing your openings against higher rated opponents
Haha, I will definitely be doing these type of videos during the Speedrun days!
Nice video :)! I have a question... How do you learn ideas and memorize moves from opening theory without chessbase? Do you have any tips of programs, websites? I started to learn 2 openings for black that needs to know more theory: Against e4 Hyper Accelerated Dragon Sicilian and KID for everything else. But it's not easy to understand those openings haha. I'm using the A to Z playlist from Jozarov's channel and putting the basic lines on lichess to try to memorize and understand the initial moves for each situation, that's the only idea I had...
I don’t know if you watched my video on how to learn any opening in an hour. That should help
@@SLChessDevelopment I'll watch it, ty!
Colle against KID please!
This is great and I look forward to more instructional videos on the Colle Zuk (you mentioned you have one planned about the Knight and pawn coming out).
Keep it up!
Thanks
Was this video already available?
What if he plays Bg4 early on
Please when you return waiting you for many days lol
After May 22nd!
hello there mr. seagull LOL
That’s me
Can you make other parts , please plz ?
Can you make a video for 3.Bf5,3.Bg4,3.g6???how you play
Can you make a video for the c4 plan other than Ne5 , please ?? it is bit strategical.
against this variation
Can you a video for how to play against kings Indian defense , queens Indian defense , hippopotamus defense ,Dutch defense and if the opponent attacks early on the queen side and king side and if the dark square in the b4 square gives a check and when we block the check the bishop takes the knight with the colle zukertort plzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz?
What do when the light squared bishop develops to the e7 square ?
Sean, at 5:56, what to play against that fianchetto variation? 🙏
Has anyone told you that you look and sound like a young George Takei? Thanks again for this series.
Hey Sean! Do you still want to produce a seperate video for the early move c4 in the game? Your tips really helped me to improve generally in chess and also I main opining is the colle zuckertort. The only thing which distracts by playing this is when my oponent plays the early bishop you because it is uncomfortable to play something you dont know the main ideas...I would really prechuate that!
Greetings from Germany :)
Greetings from Canada!
Will be doing it as soon as exams are off the table!
@@SLChessDevelopment Oh I forgot about that! Its no problem, i can wait, i just wondered but its cool that you answer so quickly on an old video! Good luck for the exams!

Aja ngomong bae, aja ngomong mending jalan sampe skak mate orang2 pada maksud brooo !!! Karepmu maksud ya ngonoh ora ya ngonoh bodoa ha ha ha Sontoloyo makmur
Why so many political adds. Sickening. Ad blockers do not work.

@@SLChessDevelopment Yes, I understand. Just venting. I am a fan or your videos.
