"It's hard for me to criticize Rubinstein - he was one of the greatest players at the time, and I'm not". A wonderfully modest and respectful statement, even though as a modern GM you <i>are</i> one of the greatest players now, a light-year ahead of anyone watching these videos, and surely a match for Rubinstein.

Very instructive.<br>But the thing I'll probably remember most is "Don't judge a rook by its cover." 😁

Could you make video of your journey to GM, your age and how you got excited of chess and make video of you playing at the same time when you explain your thoughts😊❤

Superb Strategy , Mix of King's Gambit with Gucio Piano .....It would be highly effective under 2200 ELO. Many Players wont be able to weather the storm. GM Igor Smirnov , Best Teacher.

Igor I started playing chess April of 2023. I had zero experience before. I found your video on the bishops opening and the way you explain the logic behind the moves really clicked for me. I tried other content creators, and it was not the same. Today I ONLY watch your content, and I am currently 1458 and still learning every day. Bishops opening is still my fave to this day. Thank you for all of your knowledge!
