This game was very nice. You are one of the best at explaining move choice in a concrete way, which really helps me in reorganizing the way I make my own moves.

As usual, a well researched and analysed presentation. I enjoyed it a lot. Thanks Dennis.

 Re: Dennis M.: Scotching the Scotch [28:57]
Thanks, Dennis- I look forward to your analysis of your last round game.
Not often you see both sides trying to castle by hand, as happened here. On the evidence of this, maybe suspending the castleing rule occasionally might serve to liven games up a bit!

 Re: Dennis M.: Scotching the Scotch [28:57]
Another great video as usual. I'm looking forward to "Trashing the Tarrasch" and "Countering the Center-Counter".

 Re: Dennis M.: Scotching the Scotch [28:57]
Haha  Yeah, I could use one on the center counter as well. Gives me headaches  Great presentation as always

 Re: Dennis M.: Scotching the Scotch [28:57]
Every now and again I play a center counter gambit as black: 1. e4 d5 2. exd e6 3. dxe Bxe6 but after a while people started not taking the 2nd pawn and it didn't work LOL. I don't know if that gambit has a real name or not.

 Re: Dennis M.: Scotching the Scotch [28:57]
 Usually Black plays 2...Nf6 first and after 3 c4 plays either 3...e6 (Icelandic Gambit) or 3...c6 (Scandinavian Gambit). You can name your own gambit I guess.
