- Chess Grandmaster Varuzhan Akobian presents a beginner/intermediate level lecture at the Chess Club and Scholastic Center of Saint Louis from his 2006 game against GM Sergei Tiviakov. Akobian shows us the Queen's Indian - Petrosian System.
Akobian's lectures are the most interesting and may seem "simple" only because he explains it so well. His style is really solid and elegant
completely agree, not as funny as Finegold, but at least as lucid and helpful.
HeilMeinFuhrer76 1000% agreed, you explain it like he explains chess
fantastic video's mr Akobian. I like your patience and clear-no-nonsense style of explaining.
Akobian is great at what he does, great explanations, he plays 1.d4 which is good and he is both humorous and instructive at the same time! His videos are some of the best online lessons I've ever found, thanks STLChessClub I'm glad to be subscribing and checking the catalogue of videos!
GM Akobian is my favorite online chess instructor.
You are absolutely correct! My apologies ...We're planning and prepping for the 2013 US Championships here and it's been crazy. I should have listened a little more closely. Tried to edit the title but it wouldn't allow me for some reason. Might re-upload if I can't edit title. Thanks for watching, and please help spread the word!
Wonderful!🙏🏻 Thank you so much!
Great lecture! When the ideas of each move are explained, the moves seem a lot easier to figure out.
My chess has improved leaps and bounds since I started watching these lectures. For me it’s all about the middle game. Tension, outposts, crucial exchanges, black or white squares, files, ranks, attacks, defence, sacrifices, castling, artificial castling, leaving ones king in the centre, Kings in the endgames, weak pawns, pins, creating weaknesses in the enemy king position etc etc. I’ve stopped studying 20 move deep opening paths and just think middle game right from the off.
Very nice way to teach chess - ideas and develop players . Really nice chess teacher .
Best coach ever! thank you!
I like these little stories he draws in the intro
Hi, no problem at all. Thank you very much for putting up this content anyway, Iam learning a lot from these videos. The lectures are very instructive and good to follow. GM Akobian does a very good job as a teacher as well in my opinion. Also think that he's a nice person,
Much success with your preparation!
My favorite chess instructor VAR!! Raised me 250 rating points with private sessions!!
great and simply idea .....
Thanks for sharing the video's GM Akobian. You are a great teacher! Can you please guide me how to differentiate between a weakness and a strength? Or, any book covering it?
Wow that's some high level chess.
by the way, how do you gain opposition in the last example if black kings moves to the c file and you dont have any more squares to the right??
Yes i learned it already but i have forgotten about it.
Hi,
I think the game GM Akobian shows isn't the Nimzo Indian defence as stated in the title, but actually the Queens Indian Petrosian System... Nimzo Indian would be 3. Nc3 Bb4 pinning the knight. He also said this at the beginning...
damn why didnt you show the entire video? it was getting really interesting. Yes its a well knows position but i have forgotten about it.. can you upload the rest somewere please????
Where was this tournament exactly? I'm Italian :) and i would like to know where can i find chess tournaments
I was wondering at minute 34:32 what happens if black plays pawn E5 attacking the white knight, then knight is forced to move, but pawn on C6 is now hanging, so black rook can take it.
How to workaround that?
bit late :), but I think that would be kinda bad for black, since rook can now give check on b8, king has only one square, e7, and Kf5 mates.
What was the problem with Qa4 (08:40)?
What software do they use to demonstrate this stuff?
+Hardik Raval chessbase
nice
I enjoyed this lecture series and will try to watch more. Do you have a ball park estimate of the rating of the crowd? Wondering becasue I was able to pick up on most of the 'guess the move' scenarios.
25:49, only move, rook A8?, what abt pawn H6, creating luft for the King?
jan janssen then white could just take the rook
"Is there an easier class?" Lol nice
And that was none other than Ben Finegold who said that! lmao
Om Swastiastu, Rahajeng semeng i,m use my balinese greeting for you GM Akobian thanks for you video D4 chess opening Verry enjoy and wonderful experience to study ok from Bali 🙏🙏 I,m study your lesson i love to be your studen (◍•ᴗ•◍)❤😃🙏
Maybe Nbd7, followed by c6?
At least Tiviakov was gracious enough to include this one in his Chessbase video, where he advocates the QID for Black. They played four times against each other, 2 Nimzo's, 2 QID. Akobian's record is 1 win, 3 draws. Don't think this "busts" the QID. But certainly proves GM Akobian is a very savvy player.
Akobian can really play. He beat Kasparov in 2002. . . .(In 25 moves!)
that was akopian
Jelena božič Whoops . . .Thank you.
beating Kasparov in 25 moves, this akopian is a magician!! :D
maybe Nc6 followed by Na7 to win pawn on b5.. coz Nc6 bxc6 is met with b5
in what language is peshka a pawn? in russian?
Just leaving that in the description should suffice fine. Also, openings transpose all the time, so it's not that deceptive! You should have no problem editing the title, by the way if you give it another try.
nice game ... gg
Where is August now? What is he doing? :)
He is very famous.. :)
At 37:45 I would instantky play Kf1, basically same idea as Abobians, but after 1.Kf1, Kd2 2.Kf2 Kd3! white loses the opposition,and black wins
ok now i saw it forget what i wrote
knight c4
Did he say 2800 Fide rating? We get to watch him for free...
Like his accent xD -sh move(-sh) piece(-sh)
This man is unfair. For the very last puzzle he analyzed every variation except for King h3 and h2. I really wanted him to give his expert analysis for those variations because I did an intense analysis and did not see a win for black him white played 1. Kh3/ 1. Kh2/ 1. Kh1. But he clearly stated the ONLY way for white to draw was 1. Kh1. I am not seeing it.
John Brown In both of those cases you will either lose the opposition or allow the king to go under the pawn, forcing you to trade it unfavorably for one of the black pawns. For instance 1.Kh3 Ke1 and now you don't have Kg1 and the black king will reach Kf1. If 1.Kh2 Kd2 and then if 2.Kh1 Ke3 or 2.Kh3 Ke1.
Thanks much Gustavo Pires for taking out to answer my query and especially in such detail. Immediately after I posted the commented the refutation to Kh3 flashed in my mind. But Kh2 is still bothering me. What would happen after 1. Kh2, Kd2 as in your line, but then 2. Kh3
John Brown 2.Kh3 Ke1 transposes
But wouldn't white gain direct opposition after 3. Kg1
From h3?
