"If all your moves are bad, you might lose." - Ben Finegold in 2017

"Julian, give the right answer, please" thats a new rule

I was leaving the office when i saw there was a new video of Ben Finegold,.. I left the office 1 hour later... terrible!

Ben: "let me call on a random student" Me: "ARJUN!!!!" Ben: "Julian" Me: ahhhhh too bad

4 mins of chess, 42 mins of interesting chess history

Ben is so awesome to listen. Great storyteller, makes learning chess much interesting.

I saw this guy 🙂 in Brussels in the nineties. He was an IM. He played 1' (for him)-5' (the other player) blitz games against player 2200-2300 fide rated (good Belgian chess players).

I remember that he systematically played moves like 1e3 or 1d3, unorthodox moves (with white and black), so that there was no theory at all. He won game after game...! I was impressed by his facility to win so easily.

How did he get so old in 3 years

Ben's hairline looking very suspicious.

Love endgame studies, love Ben

Watching this again after 3 year! Phenomenal lesson!

I'm a simple man. I see a Finegold video, I like.

Happiness noises
Me realizing I'm finishing all these videos faster than expected

The legend, the GM, the savage, Ben Finegold

More Finegold? You know how to treat us right Ben Simon <3

Absolutely outstanding. Took a break from Glenn Flear's "Starting Out: Pawn Openings" textbook to watch this and I'm glad I did. Thanks for another great king-and-pawn endgame lecture. More endgame lectures are always welcome!
