Wow, great stuff Yevhinii! I love that you’re illustrating some games using the reversed Philidor! I’ve got your opening course but am focusing on the Philidor for now, so it’s wonderful to learn how to use it universally as white too!

More of this is needed coach! <br>GM Aman Hambleton (chessbrah) actually has a full playlist of him playing the Philidor setup both as black and white against anything, now getting to the 2000+ level I believe, and he always starts with 1.Nf3 2.d3 instead of 1.e4 2.Nf3 -- that allows him to sidestep all the Scandi or Duras (1...f5?) nonsense . And you'd be amazed at how many players even getting up to 1100+ would still autopilot their first move to 1...e5 so with 1.Nf3 that pawn would be just hanging😅

<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jReMUfo0eLI&t=1540">25:40</a> i think b4 works after the trade you can attack his pawn on b4 as he cannot gaurd it and now you have passer
