Solution of the puzzle : first queen to f5 is a brilliant queen sacrifice then black has only one option and that is capture our queen with his knight on f5 and then pawn to e6 check is a Beautiful checkmate
Yes actually that is the correct ans congrats 👏🎉🎉
I think it is better to take to take knight with our F7 Bishop..if he re captures it with knight then we we will move our queen to F7 which is check mate ....and if he doesn't then too we will play the same move
@@hayat7877queen sacrifice is better because N x QF5 is a forced move. (Sorry if the notation is incorrect...)
@@prakharshukla7474works as well but needs 1 extra move to do it.
ya correct but i saw e6+ Nxe6 Bxe6 Qf5 #
Hey Jeetendra! I was thinking of learning Caro-Kann. Thanks for making this video. Awesome video as always!
Thank you so much for taking the time to create this video based on my request! I really enjoyed these traps and tactics. Keep up the great work!
Thanks for your chess tactics 😊🖒
Early morning and the legend comes back . Fed up of welcoming you for one comeback after other . Noone have so many comeback.
Hahaha :)
Good one, Sanjan!

All the best
All the best mine is Sunday
In which state is the tournament?
@@lakshay-musicalscientist2144Iam from india and there in Kerala✨✌️
Hi one question when we put bishopg4 in starting and oppenent instead of taking out his bishop he started to chase bishop with pawn so that what we have to do either knight or retreat bishop ??
This was awesome! Thank youuu
Recently i was looking for new openings and you came up with this video 😁.....
Btw can you please upload a video on 1.C4 English opening 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Fantastic video, thank you for sharing!
Nice and helpful video sir. Specially for me who underates this opening.....btw a request to make video on French opening...
Nice work, nice pace,
Best wishes Perth Scotland ❤ 🇬🇧
At 10:13, after the pawn exchange, you told us to play Nf6, hoping white will capture the knight and lead to Tartakower variation. But nowadays, nobody captures the black knight on f6. Instead, white will move their knight to G5, for the hyper-venomous Alien Gambit, which no one except Stockfish can counter. Whenever my oponent plays Nf6, I will play Alien Gambit and crush them. Alien Gambit has 100% win rate. I think you missed out explaining that in your video. Caro Kann was one of the obstacles behind my FIDE rating not raising above 1600. But with Alien Gambit, I could crush the Caro Kann players into dust and raised my rating to 1672.

Great video! Thanks!
Thanks very much. Requesting a similar crisp video on English opening.
Thanks for the video, good educational for caro kann beginners.
That's my all time repertoire since 2021❤
Tysm 4 this Caro-Kann vid ❤. Can you please pause a little when you say "you know what to do right", like you sometimes do in other videos. I'm always late to pause the video and think for a second haha 😁. Great video! ❤
Thank you so much Jeetendra sir for your awesome content on chess.....Because of you, I finally would be able to play black with no fear...you see, i started following you since the last 5 years and i'm thankful to for helping me out reaching 1600 on Lichess...& BTW, the solution to your puzzle starts with sacrifising the QUEEN!!!!!!!, Qf5 turns the tables as black is left no moves but to capture our Beautiful queen...and the finisher to end the game is pawn f5, blowing the game with savage...😎😎
a simple and a straight video that helped me
other youtubers made this a bit more confusing
and the most interseting part i liked that was the puzzle .
thank u
Chesspage1 has a similar approach
Try his videos too
I L❤VE THIS CLASS
Sir please make a detailed video based on Dutch for Black
Always make these types of helpful videos❤
That was so good
Thanks to @ChessTalk (best chess teacher on youtube ) for exp. Caro-Kann Defence.
Thank you sir for your videos
Really very useful message
Q to F5 black captures and pawn to E6 a beautiful check mate
Thanks for video sir..
I played Caro Kann almost of my games, especially in bullet and won a lot. This opening is just very solid when master it
I have been following you since the early days of your channel. This is my new account but I never leave u.
You are my best chess Guru.
Thank you for enlightening me. 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Brilliant queen sac with Qf5+
thanks for your chess videos 🙏
Finish with e6
Wooow you're right, the best move is Qf5! I was considering several other moves, but they only work if black moves in certain way, e.g. Qxd4 Bxe5, Qg4# -> but that only works if black moves Bxe5, if he instead moves d6 black defends
😲😲😲omg
@@damirfux2265 yup i was also thought this before Qf5+ thanks
thank you everyone for your replies and likes 😊🙏
"Let me show you how", was what we used to call you 10 years ago when we were introduced to chess. We fell deeply in love due to your exciting demonstrations of different ways to demolish every feasible response from opponents. Thank you.
I will 90% of games when I see chess talk vedios. And Jeetendra sir please make a vedio of middle games.❤️
quality explanation of why we make the moves!
Please make a video about french defense
Thanks lot sir

i love this
Can you make a video on how to play against caro-kann for white.
Queen to f5. Knight takes. Pawn to e6. Checkmate.
Thanks
Please make a video on what opening to play against d4.
Fan from Pakistan.
Thanks!
You're welcome :)
Fantasy caro kann a such a fun line for white 😊
Finally something on the Caro Kahn .
Great video! Just subscribed. Do you find the advance variation eliding into a semi-Slav from time to time? Do you find there's a tactical advantage in being able to turn a Caro into a semi-Slav?
Its my favorite opning agains e4
Solution to puzzle:Qf5, knight takes, e6 is checkmate, beautiful🔥
(Sidenote: I Don't know why, but unlike other chess yotubers, your straightforward videos are very hooky, like reading an interesting book, this video was very necessary, since other people have pay walls in front of openings and other "opening summarized" like videos on other places unlike yours, were very generic that just told you like the first two moves and that does not give me the necessary confidence to play that sort of opening.
Your videos are very helpful!)
Thank you sincerely Jeetendra sir! 😊
You're welcome :)
What about Be6 ? followed by Q f7
Is it also correct ?@@ChessTalk
@@Vijay_Singh_Rajput_ it is not the best move because checkmate is not forced, because the king can get away, even if he takes, it's more or less fine because Qf7 is not mate because black queen takes.
The correct answer to a puzzle is the shortest, best and most forcing one, this is what some people don't get. On stronger levels, you will be able to see such forcing moves in flashes of a second. 👍
@@ChessTalknow that I think about it, following since 2017-18 I think and first learned about the game, principles and openings from here.
That kind of introduction is what got me into the game, and now here I am winning and playing in championships of the most populous state of the whole world, as well as national events too. Proud to represent UP.
Still owe a lot so thanks.
After waiting for a looong time
We got karo kann ❤
alien gambit is a trappy line against the caro kann specially in bullet and blitz
Qf5 sack kxf5, e6 mate
Jeetendra sir pls make video on Benoni defense 😊😊😊
Please make a video on
Scotch opening

Kings indian attack
Please add PGN for all your videos. It makes it easier to follow
Qf5 !!
Knight takes on f5

Sir can suggest some more openings and beautiful traps I have a tournament soon in my school 🙏
Tried playing today. Screwed up on move 3 an brought out the knight instead of taking pawn on d4. Still ended up winning.
For the puzzle . can we sacrifise the bishop to e6 then mate by queen f7?
puzzle solution is Qf5+ NXf5. and finally a very simple pawn push kills the king(am sure u know the move)
Please make a video on English Opening
Solution to the puzzle
1. Pe6+Nxe6
2.Bxe6+Kxe6
3,Qf5#
Hi one question when we put bishopg4 in starting and oppenent instead of taking out his bishop he started to chase bishop with pawn so that what we have to do either knight or retreat bishop ??
I always wanted to learn the Caro-cann defense. But you hadn't uploaded the video
Hope you find this helpful!
@@ChessTalk❤
well you make such interesting videos thanks for but anyways i feel like caro kann is just kiddish thought vishy loves it but in the advance variation after e5 c5, c3 Nc6, just play Be2 and after black develops by Bf5 go Nf3 and thats kind of a common position in caro kann advance and if black pins by Bg4 just play Nd2 and moving the same piece in the opening is not considered good... so for me personally playing sicillian or french would be a lot better choice than caro which is just simple to understand.
First of all, the Caro is an opening that fights for the center with a flank pawn, and while you talk about how the French is "so good" the advance Caro with the temporary pawn gambit declined is literally just a "better" version of the French. GMs are not dumb my man, Vishy plays it to fight with many potentials in the endgame with a more solid pawn structure compared to the overextending by white and to avoid the unnecessarily theoretical Sicilian and it is a fact, that if you did not know, that not even a single GM knows all the Sicilian defense variations, talk about playing it, bruh you are like those people who have no clue what to do after move two when you play the sicilian, tell me in which line of the closed sicilian do you sac the rook for the queenside knight, or just, what do you do after the alapin, look, personal opinion, I don't play the sicilian myself, have heard about it from friends who have studied it and have remained true to the simple French for some time, but indeed I played the Caro in some recent games and got huge success in the long run. While you call this opening "kiddish" you are probably just a random 600 who needs to learn to counter the wayward queen who is complaining about how white can avoid being a pawn down. Like relax, firstly, you can still hit the knight after be7 cuz you will just trade, it is that simple, and be7 is a passive move, basically white loses their advantage of being white after such move.
I'm not hating or am mad at your opening preferences, but @ChessTalk isn't the "Caro Kann", if you know what I mean, he's just telling you how to play a certain opening. Obviously not everyone will be blown off the board after four moves. It's chess. It takes 3/5 loses out of all you games to get better, just developed and play chess at that point. There is also a person sitting across from you making the same efforts I order to win the game, stop complaining.
Right bout the time I'm deciding to learn Caro Kann since I'm kinda bored with King Indian and Sicilian. Thanks a lot!
Are you conducting any coaching for beginner/Intermediate level
Hey ChessTalk, thank you for all of your videos, they're really helping me. I only have one question, about pinning the knight with Bg4. What if my opponent immediately plays pawn on h3 instead of Be2 to defend the knight? I'm still allowed to capture the knight? Or I simply take back the bishop on the same diagonal? If so, what if he moves pawn on g4? I mean, he's basically demolishing his pawn structure on the king side so that should be the right move
You can retreat to Bh5, and after g4, you are right that White's pawn structure is not great. However, you can also just play Bxf3, and the d4-pawn might be in danger. In this specific position, you can play 6...Bxf3 7. Qxf3 e6 first to protect the d5-pawn.
Hello sir, i am your old subscriber , please Make a video on alien gambit❤
In the Panov variation, what should I do with my black bishop on g4 if white attacks it with their h pawn? Should I still attack white's knight on f3 (I do not believe so as that will not impact white's pawn structure), or run my bishop away (I believe this is the correct choice), but to where?
Mr. Jeetendra you ARE a life-saver of chess! Love from Pakistan 🇵🇰
Finally
Hel, Is the Caro better than the Kings Indian or pirc?
First move pawn from e5 to e6 it gives check to king and knight has to take away its opponent pawn then will take his knight with bishop then opponent king will take bishop then queen to f7 is a beautiful checkmate.
today ny district i peper for black side thank you sir thank you chess talk i thought caro kaan is a tafh defence no easy defence thanks and lot of love chess talk pls make guico piano for white side pls pls
This is an amazing video please add a puzzle[playable link] So everyone knows the correct answers. [I hope it's not too much to ask]
6:45 what move to play if bf4 is played instead of Nf3 ?
If your going to play the tartakower you should learn the alien gambit. If you don’t know how to play against it you’ll get crushed esp in bullet but the second you know a few good moves to combat the opening you’ll crush them every time.
Alien gambit!!
Qf5+ after taking the queen e6#
Ok boss ❤❤❤
Boss your sub title in front of screen how we see the board
How to defend if it starts like pawn G3 > bishop G2 on either side???
What do I play if white plays Nc3 as second move? More often than not I encounter Vienna at my level.
solution: pawn to e6 (check) ,knight captures(only move),bishop captures knight on e6(check),queen to f5 relocate the king and then queen to f7 is a beautiful checkmate
I am your big fan Bhai
Plzz put the video of english opening
Laughs in alien gambit
