Really enjoying the connection between the modern Reti and the Taimanov Sicilian. I think I'll give this a try thanks for the opening suggestion!

This actually seems a really convincing opening. You’ve sold it well Simon I’m tempted

Love it when you play more strategic lines. Pity that there is not a short and sweet so can check before buying

16:57 This Ng4 premove could cost a lot if white would play Kh1 or Kh3. Instead you could premove Qh2+!

Your style and approach to the game appeals to me greatly. I like your chessable content too.

Keep the videos coming! You're the most "real" guy out here.... so entertaining...... that 2nd game... that was just awesome.... straight out of my playbook... I am great out the opening and completly fail in the end...... except you actually pulled out a win.

Hello from Argentina! Ribli plays this style. Nf3 followed by c4, always. However, he enters in a Queen Gambit or a Catalan against ....d5 or ....e6 .....d5.

I watched the short and sweets, played it a bit, and LOVE this approach. So interesting! My only question is: How to play against your favoured Dutch Defence? Saw you smash Titled Tuesday the other day too, nice one :)

Simon, how do you continue after 1 Nf3 d5 2 c4 d4? Black will follow with ..Nc6, e5, etc....Would you give us just a taste of how white continues there? Thanks

@@jackkahn8217 why i asked was i... bought the Jobava London 2 years ago from chessable done by Simon.. so was just wondering if it is still worth playing?! lol
@mannylokzzz 4 ай бұрын
Jobava is incredibly effective if you know your lines. Deceptively aggressive especially if people think you just confused your normal London move order or something

Yes, I feel plans for White flow easily, even if technically the engine will tell you it is equal.
