    Akobian's lectures are the most interesting and may seem "simple" only because he explains it so well. His style is really solid and elegant

      completely agree, not as funny as Finegold, but at least as lucid and helpful.

    Akobian is great at what he does, great explanations, he plays 1.d4 which is good and he is both humorous and instructive at the same time! His videos are some of the best online lessons I've ever found, thanks STLChessClub I'm glad to be subscribing and checking the catalogue of videos!

    Great lecture! When the ideas of each move are explained, the moves seem a lot easier to figure out.

    You are absolutely correct! My apologies ...We're planning and prepping for the 2013 US Championships here and it's been crazy. I should have listened a little more closely. Tried to edit the title but it wouldn't allow me for some reason. Might re-upload if I can't edit title. Thanks for watching, and please help spread the word!

    My chess has improved leaps and bounds since I started watching these lectures. For me it’s all about the middle game. Tension, outposts, crucial exchanges, black or white squares, files, ranks, attacks, defence, sacrifices, castling, artificial castling, leaving ones king in the centre, Kings in the endgames, weak pawns, pins, creating weaknesses in the enemy king position etc etc. I’ve stopped studying 20 move deep opening paths and just think middle game right from the off.

    Hi, no problem at all. Thank you very much for putting up this content anyway, Iam learning a lot from these videos. The lectures are very instructive and good to follow. GM Akobian does a very good job as a teacher as well in my opinion. Also think that he's a nice person,
    Much success with your preparation!

    Hi,
    I think the game GM Akobian shows isn't the Nimzo Indian defence as stated in the title, but actually the Queens Indian Petrosian System... Nimzo Indian would be 3. Nc3 Bb4 pinning the knight. He also said this at the beginning...

  • @1cathexis
    @1cathexis 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    At least Tiviakov was gracious enough to include this one in his Chessbase video, where he advocates the QID for Black. They played four times against each other, 2 Nimzo's, 2 QID. Akobian's record is 1 win, 3 draws. Don't think this "busts" the QID. But certainly proves GM Akobian is a very savvy player.

    damn why didnt you show the entire video? it was getting really interesting. Yes its a well knows position but i have forgotten about it.. can you upload the rest somewere please????

  • @WillToWinvlog
    @WillToWinvlog 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Just leaving that in the description should suffice fine. Also, openings transpose all the time, so it's not that deceptive! You should have no problem editing the title, by the way if you give it another try.

  • @Idontunderstandchess
    @Idontunderstandchess 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    by the way, how do you gain opposition in the last example if black kings moves to the c file and you dont have any more squares to the right??
    Yes i learned it already but i have forgotten about it.

  • @thejupiter1744

    Akobian can really play. He beat Kasparov in 2002. . . .(In 25 moves!)

  • @PrasannaKurukulasuriya
    @PrasannaKurukulasuriya 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    maybe Nc6 followed by Na7 to win pawn on b5.. coz Nc6 bxc6 is met with b5

  • @estebanuriz
    @estebanuriz 8 ปีที่แล้ว

    I was wondering at minute 34:32 what happens if black plays pawn E5 attacking the white knight, then knight is forced to move, but pawn on C6 is now hanging, so black rook can take it.
    How to workaround that?

    • @Sielose
      @Sielose 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      bit late :), but I think that would be kinda bad for black, since rook can now give check on b8, king has only one square, e7, and Kf5 mates.

    @carepackageman 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    I enjoyed this lecture series and will try to watch more. Do you have a ball park estimate of the rating of the crowd? Wondering becasue I was able to pick up on most of the 'guess the move' scenarios.

    At 37:45 I would instantky play Kf1, basically same idea as Abobians, but after 1.Kf1, Kd2 2.Kf2 Kd3! white loses the opposition,and black wins

  • @dmaster20ify
    @dmaster20ify 9 ปีที่แล้ว

    This man is unfair. For the very last puzzle he analyzed every variation except for King h3 and h2. I really wanted him to give his expert analysis for those variations because I did an intense analysis and did not see a win for black him white played 1. Kh3/ 1. Kh2/ 1. Kh1. But he clearly stated the ONLY way for white to draw was 1. Kh1. I am not seeing it.

    • @gmppXadrez
      @gmppXadrez 9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      John Brown In both of those cases you will either lose the opposition or allow the king to go under the pawn, forcing you to trade it unfavorably for one of the black pawns. For instance 1.Kh3 Ke1 and now you don't have Kg1 and the black king will reach Kf1. If 1.Kh2 Kd2 and then if 2.Kh1 Ke3 or 2.Kh3 Ke1.

    • @dmaster20ify
      @dmaster20ify 9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks much Gustavo Pires for taking out to answer my query and especially in such detail. Immediately after I posted the commented the refutation to Kh3 flashed in my mind. But Kh2 is still bothering me. What would happen after 1. Kh2, Kd2 as in your line, but then 2. Kh3

    • @gmppXadrez
      @gmppXadrez 9 ปีที่แล้ว

      John Brown 2.Kh3 Ke1 transposes

    • @dmaster20ify
      @dmaster20ify 9 ปีที่แล้ว

      But wouldn't white gain direct opposition after 3. Kg1

    • @gmppXadrez
