grateful if you did. 00:24.440 --> 00:24.710 So. 00:24.710 --> 00:34.400 You see my courses listed here and they all link to kind of the coupon codes which give you big discounts. 00:34.400 --> 00:40.850 And I kind of renew these to keep you covered with these discounts. 00:40.850 --> 00:49.040 So check out King's Cross TV slash chess courses for my other courses that you might be interested in. 00:49.070 --> 00:55.640 My epic one is the Complete Guide to Chess Tactics, which has been a Udemy bestseller for several months 00:55.640 --> 00:56.360 now. 00:56.780 --> 00:59.150 It's got like rave reviews. 00:59.150 --> 01:01.680 That is a cool one you should definitely get. 01:01.680 --> 01:07.170 If you want an overview of openings, please check out My Fun Lover's Guide to Major openings. 01:07.200 --> 01:09.660 There's tactics training here which complements this. 01:09.690 --> 01:15.180 If you want to train your tactical ability learnt in that complete guide, London system is a very solid 01:15.180 --> 01:18.000 system you can use with the white pieces with D4. 01:18.030 --> 01:23.340 If you want a surprise weapon with the black pieces, I've got my knight C6 systems I use with great 01:23.340 --> 01:26.880 results online and also even against D4. 01:26.880 --> 01:30.840 I prefer Knight f6 then C4 Knight C6 known as the Mexican defense. 01:30.840 --> 01:37.800 So you get the Mexican the Mexican defense basically against one D4, but knight C6 against one E4. 01:37.800 --> 01:41.280 And also there's some scotch game opening theory explored there. 01:41.280 --> 01:47.850 So that's with the black pieces my ultimate guide to pawn structures that has 45 hours of content. 01:48.270 --> 01:54.210 So that's a huge mammoth bit of work I did because I wanted to educate myself more than anything on 01:54.210 --> 01:59.940 all the different pawn structures and finding the pros and cons as Nimzovich has recommended, that 01:59.940 --> 02:06.540 you should take each kind of pawn structure in turn, like the isolated Queen's pawn, which might result 02:06.570 --> 02:12.600 from loads of different openings and try and study each pawn structure in turn in detail. 02:12.600 --> 02:14.490 So yeah, here's my courses page. 02:14.490 --> 02:17.610 I do hope you share it with friends. 02:17.970 --> 02:27.060 So King's crash or TV slash chess courses and and

courses and do other courses that you need to let me know things 02:36.510 --> 02:37.320 that you need. 02:37.320 --> 02:42.150 I might be doing an end game course, for example, at some point in the future, but I try and be complimentary 02:42.150 --> 02:44.670 and I try and not duplicate anything. 02:44.670 --> 02:49.770 I try and basically make everything you get for me, you know, pretty complimentary to previous courses. 02:49.770 --> 02:52.530 So it's like a jigsaw fits in like a jigsaw. 02:52.530 --> 02:59.640 So I hope you appreciate that and share this page with friends as well as use it yourself and tweet 02:59.640 --> 03:02.120 about it, especially if you've got lots of followers on Twitter. 03:02.120 --> 03:02.780 Okay. 03:02.780 --> 03:06.860 You know, with that social media world, yeah, social media marketing is king. 03:06.860 --> 03:10.340 So I hope you do me a favor here and share this page. 03:10.340 --> 03:11.060 Okay. 03:11.060 --> 03:16.580 Another point I like to make with this bonus lecture is to invite you to my correspondence chess server 03:16.580 --> 03:18.260 at Chess Net. 03:18.410 --> 03:23.720 So if you use chess world dot net raw. 03:23.720

have a look at the improved menu and learn 04:09.750 --> 04:10.530 from the masters. 04:10.530 --> 04:15.330 You can actually come and see on YouTube, order the annotated games I'm working on. 04:15.570 --> 04:18.930 And so you get access to annotated games you can play through. 04:19.050 --> 04:24.720 So let's say Karpov versus Anand and we can play through and check the variations interactively. 04:24.840 --> 04:29.640 So it's very, very good if you want to become a full member, even just for that, for the Annotated 04:29.640 --> 04:30.270 Games. 04:30.270 --> 04:34.050 But we

And it's not not that move. 04:59.580 --> 04:59.940 Okay. 05:00.130 --> 05:02.230 So this could be embarrassing. 05:04.040 --> 05:05.000 Let's see. 05:05.180 --> 05:06.650 What would be another idea? 05:11.420 --> 05:11.810 Okay. 05:11.810 --> 05:15.020 Bishop takes is too slow. 05:15.230 --> 05:17.200 I think it has to be a check. 05:17.210 --> 05:19.190 So let's go with H7. 05:19.550 --> 05:20.450 Oh, it is. 05:22.340 --> 05:22.780 Okay. 05:22.790 --> 05:29.040 Actually, we do have queen G8 check here because then we've got Rook h5. 05:29.060 --> 05:30.080 If King h6. 05:30.080 -->

Yeah. 06:04.100 --> 06:05.360 Explore, explore the site. 06:05.360 --> 06:05.990 It's really good. 06:05.990 --> 06:12.510 Also, player players themselves can annotate games or comment on games they learn from. 06:12.510 --> 06:18.990 The Masters has its own online database, which we can search for things. 06:18.990 --> 06:25.980 There's also I've been working on Quick search helps so we can type in say fish if you want and or annotated 06:26.010 --> 06:31.590 games and it will highlight first the annotated games and then we can click and then see a Fisher Annotated 06:31.620 --> 06:32.250 game. 06:32.970 --> 06:36.060 So yeah, there's a wealth of resources basically. 06:36.060 --> 06:46.440 So if you want to get access to these resources, yeah, check out so https so chess board dot net

and that'll be really helpful. 06:58.920 --> 07:05.880 So basically in a nutshell, the more games you play in correspondence, the more genuinely fun it is. 07:06.780 --> 07:07.800 So. 07:09.160 --> 07:15.360 If we go back to the play page, just click on the logo, go back to the play page. 07:15.370 --> 07:20.170 You can see I've got 240 boards and it's ordered by least time left. 07:20.170 --> 07:26.200 So I'm playing players all around the world having great fun. 07:26.200 --> 07:30.820 So the more games you have, you know, the more you can see the power of correspondence, style, chess. 07:30.850 --> 07:35.140 It's at your own pace, at your own schedule, basically. 07:35.740 --> 07:42.310 And yeah, it's, it's got a number of learning resources that could help and improve the effectiveness 07:42.310 --> 07:44.710 of the courses on on Udemy. 07:46.090 --> 07:48.010 Okay so I hope you check that out. 07:48.010 --> 07:54.820 You are allowed also to check out the openings so there's opening identified and you can check out openings 07:54.820 --> 07:57.850 while you play the game. 07:57.850 --> 08:04.720 So for example, here it was, it was showing that the opening was a king's pawn opening and you can 08:04.720 --> 08:07.390 do research on it during an actual game. 08:07.390 --> 08:12.290 Well, I'm past the opening phase on that, so that doesn't matter so much now. 08:12.290 --> 08:16.760 But if I wanted to analyze the position as well, there's an analysis board. 08:16.760 --> 08:20.240 So here, this, this is very interesting. 08:20.290 --> 08:24.770 We can move the pieces and draw arrows and stuff as well. 08:25.580 --> 08:30.740 So let's say I wanted to analyze H4 without penalty. 08:31.100 --> 08:34.550 I can basically. 08:38.570 --> 08:40.100 Just click
