Get Better at Chess Video 5 contains 5 Chess Videos. This Chess video has some strong Chess lessons.
1. Kan Variation of the Sicilian Defense - The Kan is an effective defensive Sicilian defense. I have played it many, many times. This is in contrast to many other Sicilian Defenses which tend to be more aggressive in nature. The Kan is a hedgehog, (like a porcupine), and has a waiting element to it. Tactics include pawn storms, hedgehog pawn structure, intermezzo, battling for important squares... etc.
2. The King's Gambit - The "Immortal Game" was played by Adolf Anderson and Lionel Kieseritzky in London, England in 1851. This is probably one of the most famous Chess games of all time, and it provides a great example of the King’s Gambit. Four improbably piece sacrifices lead Adolf Anderssen to victory. The Chess tactics included are removing the guard, piece sacrifice, attacking backwards pawns, and rapid development of all Chess pieces.
3.Reti vs. Tartakower 1910 - This famous game is a miniature variation of the Caro-kann Defense played by Richard Reti. This short by fun game is analyzed by Bernard as discover Check, sacrifice and other tactics are discussed.
4. Samisch vs. Nimzovich 1923 - This famous game exemplifies the idea of Zugzwang (German - "I don't have a good move"). In fact, this Chess game is commonly referred to as the "Immortal Zugzwang Game". In this case, a position was created preventing white from making any move that would not put in a worse position.
5. Samisch Variation vs. the King's Indian Defense - This Chess Lesson presents two examples of the Samisch Variation vs. the King's Indian Defense. In the Samisch, White plays an early f3, and Castle's Queenside. Both Chess armies collide in this as white pawn storms, with a Pillsbury Breakthrough, and black fianchettoes, and attacks on the Queenside.
