This is day 152 of my journey to get to a rating of 2000 on chess.com.
In this game we play the Sicilian Defense!
I realized in past videos that I need to work on my analysis sections, so I'm really trying to improve at them. Hope you enjoyed this one, I think it's helpful for myself as well!
So far on the series:
97 wins 9 draws 75 losses

Love the addition of the tactic review after the game. Not gonna lie I look forward to your daily game! Thanks for posting brother

Thanks yorel! I will try to edit the video so that you enjoy watching it!

Haven't watched review yet, but at 4:20 if your opponent plays pawn e6, capturing your knight, it attacks your light square bishop. After you move your bishop, he would recapture your dark square bishop and would be up a piece. Always look for those in-between moves opponents can play!

@Blunder_Man Ай бұрын

Hahaha yes! I talked about this quite a bit! Did you watch the review? (I'm commenting later now haha)

@andavocado Ай бұрын

@Blunder_Man Haha yes I did. Love watching your content man. You're rated a lot higher than me, but honestly I learn a lot from your videos lol

@@andavocado really happy to hear that you enjoy them! I'm trying to improve because people will get fed up if I'm stuck at 1600 forever, but these things do take time haha

This is so cool to watch. I’m pretty much the same rating as you and there were some moves that I was scratching my head asking myself why you didn’t see it but then there were other moves that you played that were really strong and they didn’t even occur to me at all. I guess it just shows that for a lot of 16-1700 players, it’s about rounding out your game.

@Blunder_Man Ай бұрын

I always feel that way when I watch other chess players! I like to watch gingergm, and sometimes I get frustrated because he misses some stuff, but then I realize he's seeing stuff that I am not even thinking about, I think you're spot on with saying "rounding out your game", we can all improve

@LucasONeill-xt3jo Ай бұрын

@@Blunder_Man spot on. Honestly, I watch 18-1900 play and I think to myself ‘I would beat these people’ then I play 18-1900s and I think… ‘I’m awful at this game’ haha

Nice game, I like the edits a lot and the analysis after the game was also very instructive.

@Blunder_Man Ай бұрын

Thanks grwaitraxrocker! I'll try to work on the future games as well so that you like the editing the same!

good game. i have been learning a sicillian which is designed for when white moves bishop to C4 and the response to that is pawn E6. the opening is called the Taimanov/. it is one of the lines in the Sicilian. it prevents the bishop access to D5 which caused you some issues in the opening.

@Blunder_Man Ай бұрын

I'll have to check it out! Thankyou!!

@CrescentMoon55 Ай бұрын

Thank you for the quick review after the game. It helps to understand when moves were good or bad. Since I am still new to chess my goal is to learn something new about chess everyday. These are helping me do that and more. 🥳

Good game bro! Love your accent - doesn’t quite sound British to my American ears. Keep the videos coming

@Blunder_Man Ай бұрын

Lol, where in America are you from? I used to live in Pennsylvania, Virginia and Arizona, but my accent is a bit of British a bit of South African, and maybe a bit Northern Irish, total mess haha

Hey man, first of all thanks for the videos, great chess content! I watch all your videos in low quality due to bad internet so i can't see the elo so if you could say it at the beginning it would be much appreciated ! Love from France

Great game Owen. Hate to see the opp dc, but a win is a win. What are your thoughts on the Game Review Analysis?

@Blunder_Man Ай бұрын

My thoughts?

@Overpowered_Shorts Ай бұрын

Which opening is your favourite as black ? (in response to e4)

@Blunder_Man Ай бұрын

The sicilian, and I generally almost always fianchetto the dark squared bishop. I also like the black lion which comes from a pirc set-up. I rarely play it anymore though, I'm usually always playing the sicilian these days. I don't think I have ever played a single game of e5 as black
