My knowledge on blockading isolated pawns was not so good, but your analysis was very helpful. I studied it before, but this has definitely solidified where I was unsure.

One of the things so great about your videos is your willingness to go over different possible variations. For example, I was wondering why the rook couldn't take on f2. I was thinking the Queen and rook could line up on the rank and attack the king, but literally a second later you gave white's plan. You do such a great job with your videos that it feels dynamic, more like a conversation than just a lecture.

What do you think are the chances of Danielsen playing the Polar Bear?

Thanks for the video, I'm really enjoying this tournament.

Is it just my computer or does this video have a very low volume? I had to turn my volume all the way up just to barely be able to hear this video. I, too, learned from this video as I always do from Zibbit's videos!
