very cool.
about the 1st exercise, actually petrosian didn't find the move. The position was adjourned, and " everyone who called in on me heard me out with a sceptical smile, as I bemoaned the calamity that had befallen to me. No one wanted to believe that such a drastic upheaval in the state of the position - from absolutly won to critical- could have been achieved without any gross blundes being made. Salo flohr arrived. He lectured me as the others had done, but when we set about analysing, he too failed to find an adequate defence for black. He was about to leave, making the parting emark that such a position couldn't be lost. Then there was a careless sweep of his arm, and a piece was pushed away from it's square. When Salo had shut the door behind him, I realized that my rook was 'en prise' (hanging), and - like a sudden illumination - here was a draw ! to this day I have always been unsure whether Flohr had seen the strengt of ... Rc2 or wheter he displaced the piece by accident" Tigran Petrosian, Python strategy, game 17.
I love this story, and the book as well is so cool.

Petrosian was such a genius of the game and these kids finding the right moves so quickly scares me so much.

Kids are chess monsters wow

OMG I can't believe the amazing quality of this Class. Thank you so much ChessDojo for sharing!! It's pure Gold.

This one was especially good. Petrosian (for me at least) is the hardest world champion to analyze. His reputation as a safe, slow, positional player is only partly accurate. His style is very odd and very unique, and it's great to get a little insight as to how he's actually thinking.

I love the last name  - not too many of us!

My chess hero

I saw the first exercise instantly, which was supposed to be hard.  I didn't see the second exercise at all, which was supposed to be easy.  

Something is wrong with my brain.

12:05 jesus why did I think the “remove pin” was a tip

Such an amazing author and teacher!

Outstanding lesson, I really enjoyed it!

I completly failed on the "easy" ones in the Beginning. Its far too hard for me with 2200 😆. But I would like to learn so much more, so I will continue...

Good class on the classics! 😎

not the pipi I was looking for...

These Nb1 or Nb8-Nd7 relocation of knight to punish opponents committed setup seems fairly common even though so optically weird and slow looking. Kostya opening “the horse” Jesse made a video on or various positions after white pushes d5. It is interesting that this slow looking plan is best maybe in part due to no pawn tension or pawn breaks possible to exploit. I can consider slow plans because development is complete, position is partially closed/low tactical tension and blacks pieces aren’t extremely active.

Love this Chess Channel!

The problem with Petrosian is that he's very hard to fully appreciate if you're rated under 2000.  Anybody can understand a Morphy attack, but Petrosian's long maneuvering sequences sometimes baffled not only his opponents, but fans and annotators as well.  A lot of his games are great art if you can understand them at all.  One thing they aren't is boring (except for the too-frequent GM draws).  Anybody who says that has never looked at them and is just repeating something he heard.

1.who are these kids finding champions of the world quality moves!? So impressed… and frustrated!
2. Could you give the name of the games?
