Jonathan Schrantz teaches how to play the “Cadillac” of openings, the Sicilian Najdorf. The English Attack is explored in-depth, but other variations are covered.
2016.01.25
Magnus Carlsen vs Wesley So, Sinquefield Cup (2015): B90 Sicilian, Najdorf, Byrne (English) attack
Sergey Karjakin vs Viswanathan Anand, Corus (2006): B90 Sicilian, Najdorf, Byrne (English) attack
43:03 — W: Q x f7, not pxf7.
19:32
"for control"
sounded like "frickkin' troll" the first time I heard it lol
Man if sm1 is teaching sicilian atleast switch board sides.
Watsup Scott
Ah nine and a half minutes to find out you're not going over the variation I'm looking for xD
what is the name of the music at intro?
How can I show yours type of board
Which Software is used in this lecture
Can you cover the legendary Machuka rook game?
Who's here because of "The queen gambit" netflix series?
I spent three hours after this vdo… It's great
10:30 Thanks, I'm a SuperGM now
for some serious analytical chess this was really funny.
I enjoyed the speaker greatly. Very energetic and engaging.
As a 700 rated noob, I definitely NEED to learn complex and top GM openings
Thebossminecraftpvp want to play najdorf what a king
46:00 when you see mate in 1, look for a better one
yes i am 400 rated i will play this and win
I dont want equal position man, i want a position that destroys White, lol
Tal also play this defence
I love u so much, thanks to you I play a national.
Love from México ♥️
Excellent Understanding and Commentary , Thanks a lot.
As much I enjoy the lecture I like his interaction with the kid LOL. "You learned from us" (calling the knight as bishop) and then "You play better than the world champion" HAHAHA he's a nice lecturer 😀
Wow Paul Morphy himself wanted to know how to play this opening.
TY nice explanation,
what is the name of your software?
Now what‘s up Scott?
Just curious, why do most people in the chess world default to using he/him for theoretical players?
For 4:50 can't they just play Nxe4,Qxf4, and Nxe6+? After the trade of minor pieces, black cannot take the pawn on c2 because e5 would be hanging and the position is superior for white
poor danny
05:47 There's an interesting forced draw that'd happen if white plays Qh5 instead of retreating back with Ng3. Black's best move is to take the knight on e4. White proceeds with Qg5+, Kh8 is forced for black, Qf6+, Kg8 is forced, Qg5+ and no other option than to repeat.
This guy is so confusing and stressful somhow, I didn't enjoy it at all. ERIC R Is so different league
Did not enjoy. I would have preferred you played as "Black" which would have been more in tune with your video title. With "white" at the bottom, I found it to complicated to see my Black positon.
It have been a long time sines I comment on this .. dont remember where In the game I kind of thing that white most have a better move. So never mind
Can we get a whole series on this please
Hey can you do a lecture on the Nakhmanson gambit? I saw a youtuber play it once
Why would 3. …Nf3 force white to play 4. Nc3? Can't white just play 4. Bd3?
what is the program that you are using
at 4:50, doesnt Nxe4, Qxf5, Nxd6+, Bxd6, Qxd6 look good or is there some kind of trick im missing here?
Stratford opening
2:20 4:23 6:17 8:39 9:23
10:54 11:37 !! 14:13 .
Nah if you have time go for the prettiest checkmate
❤❤
Will there be a tutorial series on how to cheat…I mean…play like Hans Niemann?
Amazing my dear ❤️ thanks for sharing 💕💕
46:35 : Me when entering a club
TheBossMinecraftPVP my man be beating people in Minecraft as much he beat them people on the board, a true idol.
AyO what’s good Scott? How’s the fam?
1:03 💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀
Great lecture, keep up the good work.
In the last position where you talked about mating in the right number of moves, I think the move Rc2+ is leading into a 3 moves mate.
My opponent is also watching this 😅😅
