Universal Chess Opening: The Hippo Beginner Ideas Series Part 2

Показать описание
Welcome to the Palm Beach Chess Beginner Chess Openings series on the Hippo! I am often asked by students starting out: is there an opening I can play with both white and black? Yes and no… we can’t always get exactly what we want but by guiding opening principles and plans we can reach a playable position without too much difficulty. Hopefully, this series by NM Bryan Tillis is enjoyable as clearly, the Hippo is not for everyone ;)

I'm loving this series. I wanted to find an easy flexible system but I had no idea that GM's even played this. Sweet!

A hippo speedrun is just what I was looking for.

Thanks for this series, looking forward to the higher ratings! I get the impression the hippo is somewhat looked down upon but I really enjoy it! (should I really go for this as white??) I sometimes get into this setup from an Owen defense as black. (Lichess 1850-1950 Rapid)
