  21. Thanks a lot for your great scientifically research and deliver it with a such nice explanation!!👏👌☘️

  22. I am stuck at 1250 – 1290 because of my endgame mistakes. 😥

  26. I´m stuck at 1100 and I just watched the video, I´ll be upgrading my performance, hope this works, thank you for the tips

  27. Thank you, I went from 1150 to 1300 by using these tips!

  28. What is your lowest elo?

    Have you (chess master) passed 1100, or just skip to 1500 inna blink eye?

  29. Literally on the first example, he asks "whats wrong with this?"

    I spent 30 sec looking.. "Oh the bishop can just take the knight on f3 and mess up my pawn structure."

    2 seconds later "CHECKMATE STOOPID."

    lmao

  30. Happy to see you as i typed 'chess 1200 score' i got to 1250 2 weeks ago. But i cant break through. I am good in endgames and average in openings, but my main mistake is the middle games. My mistakes are : 1) no longterm thinking, 2) get always overwhelmed by the attacks eventually (despite the fact i am very defensive 3) i dont know how to attack(i mainly win by surviving at the end)

    Your video taught me : 1) delay early castling 2) dont panik when incoming pawnwave and counterattack 3)importance of the 2nd and 7th row

    Thanks bro

  31. I’ve surpassed 1200! Now only to stay there 😊

  32. Good idea blockade… I always just take with my castles pawns and f up my structure and defense

  33. Just hit my peak at 1201. Have been training harder since this event. thanks for the video.

  34. Thank you! Love your clips, very helpful and easy to understand!

  35. I am 1109 today and will update here when I hit 1200

  36. When I go through all of these. I lose out of time
