Very illuminating explanation about the difference between positional and strategic play at the end. great interview!

[jonmetaphorist]

Calculation is the single key to avoid mistakes, of course evaluation is important. But if you can't calculate properly, evaluation means nothing.

[kevinwellwrought]

Calculation in chess is a big unsolvable problem for most chess players

[druvasookraj]

Do you guys do online camps? Absolutley love Sagar! And Amrutha!

[GeorgeEpting]

That's cool attack and calculation, tatics and all those other things you said very interesting 😊

[kgsphinx]

This is not about how to calculate. It’s just a video about which books help you, and some general thoughts on describing chess play.

[GeorgeEpting]

Right I like that and I always say that up to is a very good answer for chess for it is really that tricky

[GeorgeEpting]

Thanks for telling me how much you know and there is, there and has to be but in the best way possible to be shown for if there isn't one now it can be out to be proven and out of order, answers and questions go hand and hand

[GeorgeEpting]

Interesting no mistakes in it hmmm I hope it's not about chess mistakes for if you do this is still not bad but really is a good thing this can work both ways in so many ways not even the best programs got it right

[S.Productions]

Hello Chessbase India, are the books written by GM Jacob Aagaard available in PDF??(Grandmaster series)

[BravingTheOutDoors]

He's starting to look like the Groke

[MM-ttnp]

A really good chess book should take many years to make.
Then Mr Aagaard would have been 452 years old when this video was filmed :P

[GeorgeEpting]

Interesting white looks like he had the knight bird up in my theory since 1976 n 1977 and I don't know if they had computers in 1988 but into 2000 to 2010 the and the best program went down with my theory but it is 20 years later and that's ok and I know they know and that's all we need to know, it's good enough for me

[chessjester]

Where are Jacob's friends? And why have they not staged an intervention?

[madmusic]

Imagine if his parents had named him Aaron instead of Jacob. 😄

[GeorgeEpting]

And heres another funny thing that happens to me a lot is I find an answer and it's right but they turn it around and rewheel it and take it and make it there own and make me look like im wrong all because they can do it, the human plays the computer the computer loses the computer shows screen to fix the problems which they did but didn't know before but now they know hmmm what can we learn from a computer now, well now it's to late I justed teach it my theory and 20 years goes by but that's alright for I know my theory for now is up to 3200 with inaccuracy all over the place and with out trying to go any higher I know it is higher for I know where answers are to be found
