Arjun chiming in with the "You said this was not the right way to hold it so that means there is a way to hold it and it's a draw"

I like how Akobian makes me think instead of just passively consuming the video. His challenging lectures may not be more fun than others, but I think I make much more progress with them.

This has to be the most difficult lecture ive watched. But you made the concepts easy to grasp and understand. Thank you for explaining the short diagonal bishop.
