About

I'm a 2,000 Elo online chess player from the United States. In 2024 I got back into online chess after a long break from the game, and went from 1,100 Elo to 2,000+ Elo in just 7 months. Now, I help serious online chess players destroy their old rating plateaus, learn how to think like a top 1% online player, and skyrocket their online rating to 1,000 - 2,000+ Elo (just like I did myself). On this channel I share my insights from: -Analyzing hundreds of professional chess games featuring Magnus Carlsen and other top grandmasters -Playing thousands of chess games at the 2000+ Elo level, including how I actually "think" during my games -Teaching hundreds of online chess players who often gain 100 - 400+ Elo in their first 30 days with me ...And more. My mission is spread the joy of chess with as many people around the world as I possibly can, and to inspire others to reach their true potential as online chess players - just as I strive to do myself.

Video Description

Stop blundering every 3rd move! 👇 https://www.skool.com/chessmindset Daniil Dubov is one of the most creative grandmasters in the world today. Known for his aggressive and unorthodox playstyle, he is always inventing new chess openings to shock his opponents. But this new opening, famously called the Dubov Variation by the entire chess world, is on a completely different level! In the game Daniil Dubov opens with the Italian Game, and his fellow Russian super-GM Sergey Karjakin responds with the absolute main line with a fast …Bc5 and …Nf6. However, rather than play the main lines, Daniil Dubov goes for a fast c3 / d4, and then busts out his brand new opening idea that left the entire chess world speechless! But it was his follow-up ideas, including a fast Bf6!! and Qxg6!! that really blew my mind! Make sure to watch till the end of the video to see Daniil Dubov’s new opening idea in full effect, and to see the unbelievable conclusion to this next-level game! 🔔Thanks for watching!
