In my mind time is not a separate dimension of chess but it is just a means of achieving things like coordination. In this sense Yermolisnky's "types of advantages" makes more sense: Type 1 advantage material, type 2 structure and types 3 temporary advantages like better coordination of the pieces. I'm really looking foraward to Jesse's views on this.
You talk about time all the time! It is very complicated ! Is it winning tempi? Is it piece coordination? Is it threats and disturbing moves? Even connected to King safety sometimes? It requires a full separate video to explain it since it is the cornerstone of your chess philosophy Jesse!
I talk about it a lot! There are different ways to break down the dimensions too. Silman has like 43 of them. Mine is the classical one :-) And three is a good number.
13:33 11...Ne8 is "a chess crime...a crime. ...Play 11...Ne4 for sure(!)" to trade pieces, etc. I think it's not so obvious at this rating level why 11...Ne8 is so egregious, e.g.: (1) the alternate good move, 11...Ne4, substantially improves the Black Knight's activity from where it will be centralized, on the enemy's side, and it may be exchanged for White's good knight on c3 to relieve Black's cramping; (2) the bad move, 11...Ne8, places the Knight where it is dominated by White's e5 pawn, un-develops the Knight to the back rank, interferes with Black's Rooks, leaves the Knight with only 1 square of actual activity at c7 from where it would be dominated by White's c4-pawn, and then Black needs at least two more Knight moves to reach the strength it would have had via 11...Ne4. But I presume there is even more evidence that would help build the case for a "chess crime"

This game once again proves the rule: beat the kids in the endgame. chess latte was truly swimming this entire game!
Being confident in your endgame abilities makes you more confident in the middle game and less likely to take unnecessary risks (hope chess).
This is a great video. Thanks
Great video, go Falk and Chess Latte!
Thank you Jesse
I saw Kasporov play whites opening position the other day. He never did castle but he won.
I'm close to the 2150 Lichess Classical threshold, but quite far from 1875 USCF, what's the explanation?
Please note that it's very difficult to compare different rating pools, especially comparing online to OTB 😊. Do you play more online or in person?
Awesome
Inevitably, 6. dc is the top stockfish move at depth 40 😁

@@ChessDojo I hope you'll write a strategy book one day!
