i know this is late but thanks so much for these great chess school videos, i'm so grateful to watch these videos for free from great players like peter
Wow, why didn't anyone ever tell me about Svidler? I discovered him recently, commentating on Chess24 and in St. Louis and was amazed. One of the greatest chess minds of our generation. He's so incredibly modest, but the way he thinks about chess reminds me of Kramnik (or Leko, I guess), even Kasparov. This crowd that hit the mid 2700's are all a cut above. It's amazing.
I think the first milestone in a chessplayer's development is getting to the point you rarely drop pieces. I don't know what the second big milestone is, I'm still trying to reach the first milestone, but I have faith that if I keep practicing and studying I'll reach that point. I find the best thing is going over my games on a chess engine. I always get disgusted by all the things I missed in games I was so proud of.
Dennis Harrell -I found your comment interesting. But you need to be specific about time controls. For me, I think think the first big milestone will be when I rarely make simple blunders in 10 minute games, and the second big milestone will be when I rarely lose on time in 10 minute games.
Greg is absolutely ABYSMAL. Probably never self-criticized in his life. Awkward interventions while Peter is in mid flow, selecting dumb questions, thinking he's funny with his hoodie, referring to his own games against Peter as if a single person in the world cares. Just awful. Actually makes it unwatchable. Candidate for worst interviewer I've ever seen? Remarkable
I watched several of these USCS videos and noticed an interesting pattern. VAST MAJORITY of these smart kids are using the same interjection ( "LIKE") in places where it is totally uncalled for. Is it because there is a teacher that is involved with them on a regular basis and is overusing it, so the children are just unconsciously copying him/her? Whatever the reason is, someone should point this out to these young people. English is not my native language, but it sounds very disgusting to here these interjections all the time. I listen to English language a lot (movies, you tube, etc.) and although I sometimes here people using "like" as an interjection, it is nearly not as common and frequent as on this show (by these kids)
@@ChessDojo :). I have to trust you, since English is your native language and it's spoken where you live. Still, I don't enjoy hearing that particular interjection too much.

Svidler is world champ at interviews because I enjoyed this

The engine will always find something to criticize! Focus on your ideas and learning what works and what doesn't

It's more common than you think! Kostya also does it

it's just a typical thing for younger English-speaking people
This is, like, just how modern colloquial English is spoken.
