1:27:42 Rosé from blackpink 😦?

how i can be ur student
?
22:20 Instead of moving the rook, couldn’t you move the queen one file over and then finish it off with the rook. Mate in 2 total?
just eat that knight😓

Mom : – we have alireza firouza at home..
Alireza firouza at home :-
this made me excited
I have a question for reacting to a queens pin (e.g. 26:40), why do you take with the pawn instead of the queen. I just thought that it weakens the pawn structure and also opens up the G file, so could you please explain when to take with the pawn and why in this situation you also chose the pawn
Will watch This is future
As a reference

He has enough content in this one video to make 4 years worth of shorts
A6 in the sicilian is dragon? I think u slipped up there mate . Anywho, thanks for the informational content it was useful!!!
I’m teaching my cousins how to play, 2 of them, one of them are 7 and the other is 12
Is 79% accuracy considered good? That’s my Acura y in most games
ITS Illegal to have such instructional content
1:09:50 why not knight
In game 6 there was smothered mate
13:25
Why didnt you take the knight on C6 in the first game with queen….?
This is amazing. Keep up the great work
I'm watching this after my opponent missed checkmate after i blundered mate and i won the game
zach you deserve way more attention out there, you dont realize how important you are to chess community
how do i get to these streams
also can i become a student, im very dedicated to chess
Repent for your sins and follow Jesus now he's coming
"Satrange" doesn't sound right to me. The arabic word for chess today is "Chatrange". Not sure if it changed over time or you got it wrong. But good info anyway!
At 41:45 Why didn't he move Queen to g7 then proceed to eat away at the pawn structure, stopping at e6? Is this all around a bad move?
I’m rated 2400 and a hardcore Najdorf player and almost cried when you called it a dragon love u tho zach
In game 9 u missed 6 nc6 bxc6
7 bxc5 dxc5 8. Qxd8 kxd8 9. Nd2 where white is completely winning due to the trippled pawns
Love you bro i've been watching your shorts since 2 months now i started to watch your videos too best chess content creator❤️
Great sir ! i watch complete video and i learnt alot of new things i am 1600 rated player!
17:10
Broo said setrang😭😭💓🤌
18:17
I am dead Zach that was cute 😭😭
Thx bro , I just won chess tournament 😀👍
Chess was first invented in India….it was called Chatranga than arabs change some things and it became shatranj 😊
every time he looks at the camera after a move i look back at his soul unblinking im not letting he look into my soul like that
Chaturanji the chess beta
i was 700 while watching this but after and applying the tips in game i hit 2300 3 months later
super cool thanks
hey Zack! do you do coaching?
Coool boy👍💯
40:06 did you have Nxd5? Love your content btw! My thinking is that it just wins a pawn. If after Nxd5, Bxe3, Nxe3, Nxe3, fxe3. I suppose instead of him taking back with the knight he could just play Nxd4…
Fischer's defense is the only viable response to the KG imo. Was +3 against a 2600 GM after 13 moves in a 3 min blitz game before he eventually won after 40+ moves because he was playing faster and being a much stronger player in general.
Is he Firouzja's brother?
Qxc6 instead of Bb7 in Game 1
Noteboom is pronouced NOH-teh-bohm.
this should NOT be free
