The Alekhine defense is pretty rare, but my favorite response is the Krejcik gambit. e4 Nf6 Bc4 with the idea that when Nxe4 Bxf7 immediately, Kxf7, then Qh5. if the king moves back to g8, or if the pawn blocks, you fork them on d5, and if the king moves up to e6, you go Qe2 and pin them, you'll win their knight next move by attacking it with a pawn, and believe it or not, white is no worse than -0.4 in any of these situations. It totally forces any alekhine player out of their comfort zone and I'd love to see your approach to playing it in a rating climb if you get hit with an alekine. I've really been enjoying the series so far and thank you for playing the scotch today, which was my commented opening last time.

You go in for the kill and you know what you are doing -- and it makes others feel that they could do it as well.

his ELO is >2000 he easily can win a game against elo 500 (like in this video) with 1min against 10 mins. or 3min and without a few pieces the most impressive thing in these videos: how thoroughly he explains almost every move giving his followers such a good foundation. i mean: he's>2000 when he says "wow, interesting" usually at the end of this phrase he has a solution already. but even with this knowledge he keeps explaining the basics and some tactic though, sometimes we need something crazier, like "let's play Botez gambit on a speedrun till elo 2500" thanks, Average Joe, i really appreciate it!

Hi Nelson. At 10:44, you play … Kg7, but I think … f5+! is a better move. 1) if white plays gxf6 e.p., you recapture exf6 and you now have two side-by-side passed pawns, and 2) f7 is now available for your king; this puts it closer to the center for the endgame, and it leaves g7 open for the bishop if you need it. 3) if white does not recapture en-passant, you have a pawn-bishop fence that forces the white king back and controls squares in the center. Can you comment on this? What does the engine say?
