  • Jonathan Schrantz looks at a little-known line within the Tarrasch Variation of the French. Learn about the Guimard Variation and its nuances. See a game from Hikaru Nakamura that demonstrates its effective usage.

    Thunderbunny? :)
    Apparently named after Dan E. Mayers, whose nickname was "Thunderbunny" (and who in 1953 played a game against Fischer that was the latter's earliest recorded game).

    Wow, this is a crazy opening and endgame. No wonder it took 45 minutes to get through. Very fun.

      @@joedorben3504 This was 2 years ago but white is clearly winning after the OPs given move because you are not winning a rook and a knight for the queen, the knight can retreat back to c6 after Rxa1.

    12:10 if white prefers the bishop on d3, can’t they just play it back to d3 after c3 nc6. It doesn’t appear that white loses a tempo doing so

    Isn´t black just wasting a tempo playing Nb5 and then back at 11 :58? I guess a more accurate move is f6, which leads to a very complicated game.

    • @darraghmoran740
      @darraghmoran740 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Nb4 Be2 c5 c3 Nc6 Bd3 leads to a universal system which is supposed to be good for white but here schrantz forgets that white is a tempo up when he says that the position with the bisop on e2 is inferior

    I like John’s videos ordinarily. Why are we covering people playing terrible chess moves? Ridiculous. I gave up after the first three minutes and discussion of three terrible moves by white.
