I was just thinking that these players were much higher than 400. I still learnt a lot, Ben.

[@ChessBootCamp]

Yeah, happens.

[@joseraulcapablanca8564]

Sitting here late at night, very tired during my first night in this latest run. figured watching you playing tired chess was more fun than playing tired chess myself. I was not wron Ben. Thanks mate.

[@ChessBootCamp]

Well you know I love to entertain.

[@billingparishchurch6029]

Great to see you back Ben! Not really an idea for a series but more for a one off video - it would be interesting to see how alcohol affects calculation. So a game after 1 pint, another after 2 pints, etc. Could be fun!

[@ChessBootCamp]

Ha ha, I did do one called "Alco-chess" several years ago where I knocked back a bottle of port while playing chess :-)

[@joseraulcapablanca8564]

Of course i want you to continue.

[@ChessBootCamp]

Splendid.

[@soconnor]

Glad to see you back Hunty you're looking well. The lower levels are funny as people tricks that you just forget about. I think you should do the caro kann as black and as white just develop naturally e4 get the knights and bishops out. Don't think you need an opening as white in early stages just natural opening moves

[@ChessBootCamp]

Ooh Caro-Kann, hmm, it's a thought. I know it's quite popular.

[@justaguy2961]

I loved this video. You're so real, and I love your accent

[@ChessBootCamp]

Many thanks :-)

[@lidaaletap2646]

Very welcomed Ben! Id love to see you continue this series

[@ChessBootCamp]

Thanks, will do.

[@Jamie-Chess]

Nice to see you back Hunty. I think you reached your maximum potential at 1600, and it’s hard to get beyond that (I’m also stuck at 1600), so a change is always welcomed. Good luck on this journey

[@ChessBootCamp]

I think that, with discipline, I can get over 1700, as I have plenty of games with that estimate in analysis (quite a few over 2000). I just need to cut out the weaknesses.

[@christophernelson5776]

I would like to see the marshall gambit. I do enjoy watching you play and even though you are tired I appreciate the video. Thank Chess Boot Camp for uploading

[@ChessBootCamp]

Is that against the Spanish?

[@gwojcieszczuk]

Ben, I had a great laugh watching this. Thanks mate.

[@ChessBootCamp]

Glad someone enjoyed it ;-)

[@rogerwarr4673]

Unexpected but welcome!!

[@ChessBootCamp]

Nice.

[@nickgreen5401]

Carry on Ben

[@ChessBootCamp]

Cheers.

[@dennisharrell2236]

It's good to see you back, but I get the impression you haven't been playing much chess lately.

[@ChessBootCamp]

I've been playing quite a bit of blitz.

[@davep7176]

is the 400 the elo? I am kinda new to watching chess. also at 5:51 I think you missed a better legal move being the b2xc3 (pawn takes)

[@DavidPeriard]

Gotham is hiring a web designer or something like that if you want you should give it a looksie!

[@ChessBootCamp]

Thanks for the tip.

[@DavidPeriard]

gang gang

[@ChessBootCamp]

Uh, okay :-)
