- This is the best way for white to attack the Caro-Kann. It's aggressive but not risky!

This is the second game in my quest to reach 2500 lichess rapid by the end of the year. It was a Caro-Kann Exchange variation in which the most typical thing happened - white started a kingside attack and it worked. I use this myself, and always struggle against it with black.

I like that you just ignored all the haters on the last video saying you can't do it, and just keep going. That's the right attitude.
Haters? There is a higher probably of failing than succeeding. Just facts. xD
People being slightly realistic = stupid haters
It’s good content for him - he still gains even if he fails.
@@DarthMessias why would I be hater if I think that it is very difficult to gain 200 points in this category from an established rating base?
@@monkeychess1398 What? Wrong message...xD
Gaining 250 points means being able to score 80% against players of your current rating.
Idk i think this game was primarily lost because of the opening. Its just that this position is much easier to play for the white, even if both players are of the same strength.
Oh nvm you caught it 10 seconds after I wrote this
At the 20:30 blunder, so Rh8+ Kxh8, Nxf7+ Kg8(?), NxBd6 why not Ne4xNd6? I mean the pawn structure is ruined but you still got his rook for payment
Thought of the same thing
This hallucination around min 20 is truly remarkable, I wonder what caused it. This tactic was never possible as d6 was securely guarded.
Backwards knight moves are famously hard to see… 🤷🏻♂️🙏
I mean he is 1900 Fide elo what do you expect?
@@AntonStachSZN He's basically 2k and missing that squares are protected is certainly not typical for strong players. I suppose it was just a tough position to defend. White set up that attack beautifully in my opinion. I thought he played really well there, although I myself really wanted Nxg6 at all those points.
I thought knights don't move backwards. Is that not right?
I'd like to agree but I missed it as well lol
19:00 is how I often feel
When hanging pawns is calculating everything and you low key don't know what tf hes talking about so you just sit there like 🤔
After Qb3 I always play Qd7 with the idea of playing Bd6. If white takes out bishop we 'give up' the b pawn but that is actually not good for white.
Not trying to be a downer, but I think 237 rating points is an insane number to try to gain in 3 months. Assuming you gain 10 points per win on average, you need to go +24 over your games to gain that number of points. If you play 2 games per day, you will need to go something like 108 W 84 L (56.25%) against increasingly strong opposition. Not saying at all that it's impossible, just that I think it's just as likely to be a question of volume as pure chess strength/playing good moves.
Watching this through first time, I was surprised you didn’t opt to trade rooks at the critical point of your opponents attack.
Yes the attack was promising, but you blunted the first wave and they were running out of material to throw at a checkmate - especially given their bishop wasn’t doing much.
But more than this - it would have changed the psychology of the games position - it would have been a move where you dictated your opponent’s following action after a long period of playing reactively and started putting pressure on them, which is the sort of situation that can bring about a blunder.
So maybe this might be an area of your play you might wish to consider developing - the psychological side - because your technical skills are solid.
But for me watching, I feel your play can be too reactive and overly concerned on what your opponent is trying to do, rather than getting your opponent to worry about what you’re doing.
Ha! This is my favourite way to meet the Caro-Kann. Those Queen's Gambit Exchange (1.d4 d5 2.c4 e6 3.Nc3 Nf6 4.cxd5 exd5) positions with colours reversed are pleasant to play as White. More difficult to meeg are lines with ...g6 imo.
35:22 Ke8, Rxf7, Rxf7, Qxe6 and then just Kf8 though? No checks and everything is defended
Bg6 gives white a +1 or more advantage according the computer. It does appear to be theory, but it probably shouldn't be.
Hi Stjepan, do you play Qc8 to play for a win? I usually play Qd7 to trade DSB via Bd6 and its pretty reliable.
Quite the roller-coaster of emotions from 19:00 to 21:30 😂
Have you tried the lines e4 c6 d4 d5 exd5 cxd5 Bd3 Nf6 c3 Bg4! Qb3 Qc7 before? Because it stops Bf4 and really prevents quite a bit of activity from white. If Ne2 trying to go Bf4 you just take on e2 with Bxe2! And after Bxe2 you can play e6 and Bd6 with a really good chance to play for a win
Qc7 is a solid line but also a potential loss of tempo. White can still go for the h3 systems and Black is left having played Qc7 for a move rather than another developing move when they might want to go Qb6 or Qa5 later so it took two tempi to move once. It's an okay line but there's a reason that it's not too popular if White knows what they're doing
Loving this new series
If you think on going to play e5 vs e4 then the only way to win as black will be playing violently
That’s not really true though. I’m between 2100-2200 lichess and play the Berlin as black with a great plus score. You just have to stay patient and slowly build up. There are a lot of pieces on the board and no obvious plans, making the positions quite hard to play for white.
@@noahknol5685 okay but berlin is for cowards
You constantly play without a clear strategic goal in mind. It's no wonder you pack yourself into a box against any kind of opposition.
You should learn how to communicate criticism, otherwise people will just ignore you most of the time
@@cz19856 it is quite clear and direct where is the problem?
lol all he talks about are his strategy goals in the game.
@@AntonStachSZN when you grow up you will understand
@@cz19856 if ppl dont get critisism it is their problem
