Curious why you return the Queen to d1 after capturing the bishop after BxN. I thought the Queen was fine on f3 but you gave up a tempo return the Q to do so there must be a good reason. BTW, I love this series on the Jobava London, could you please give me a link to your full course.
His main threat is to play …Ne5 so that’s why the queen was not amazing on f3. Going back to d1 is a very common thing for that structure! Here is the link: th-cam.com/video/YbdguiIBFc4/w-d-xo.html
Hye Coach, i use london system, yesterday i got encounter from black knight c6, pawn d6 and then e5, bishop g4 pin my knight!do you have experience handling this? I got checkmate haha how to response ya
At 7:42 I've got strong vibes, that sacking an exchange with B:e5 should be OK, it's nice that engine approves it as the best move :) Maybe there is some hope for me anyway ;)
Nice to see a benoni game. You know I always feel that when you get a book or some video on a d pawn opening, they never really go deep enough, they just leave you at a position and say white is better. As a club player, the benoni is tought to play against. Black does have play.
It’s always tricky during the game. But against the early benoni I scored amazing during this run. Try to learn that Knight back pattern when they play …Nb5
I just wish I was higher rated, so when I play people, they play normal openings. Whenever I play the Caro-Kann, I get 1.e4 c6 2.f4 d5 3. e5 Like why does white have to play such an awful move? Moves like Bf5 are just really good for white. You would think its a good thing that my opponents arent playing good openings, but it prevents me from practicing my main line openings, and only prepares me to play against trash.
yea I can relate to this but imo playing against (and then preparing for) these sidelines can benefit your main line prep because this way you can learn why those less popular moves are inferior and actually understand why the main lines you want to practise are the main lines 😄

amazing video! are you doing a chessable course on the london?
Audio seems quiet for this one. I have my volume up loud to hear, then have my ears blasted by the ads.
Alex will you be publishing a Jobava London Course on Chessable?

Good morning, from Buenos Aires, Argentina, Master in this game, wasn't it better to continue with 4.Bf4 entering the strong Attack 150?
Very great content man. Best of luck ❤️
Lessons?
La minutul 16 la Atacul austriac nu aveai sah cu regina la g3 apoi șah mat Qg7 ?

Interesting move, but a bit unnecessary. Why complicate when simple move is good enough?

Fair enough. Probably I wouldn't dare to make it anyway and went for something more straightforward.
Thanks again. You make it so simple
Banzea London rocks!

And these are the games I lose 😂

You makes it look so easy Alex. I try my best to imitate you but I often fail in the winning position under time pressure. >>>> S U B S C R I B E !
Speak up or stop mumbling.
I’ll do my best!
