Chess lesson # 51: Best Opening for Black | Chess openings the right way | The Czech Pirc Defense

Jeez.. totally ran over those opponents.. very well played and excellent explanation.

Thanks

What happens if white moves pawn to d5 or pawn to c5 ?

Thank you for such a great teaching video. Do you have a middle lesson to strengthen my play? I am a cancer patient and appreciate your channel for making my days of study fun for a nearing 70 yo guy. Thank you for being here. Kind regards from Maine.

Thanks, appreciate the upload ...you are a great teacher! Love from India !

What is the name of this defence

Very nice opening

Your voice seems different 👀

How to play it when they play the fried lever attack ?

Im worried they will put their dark square bishop on d2 and do discoveries on the queen on A5

I just want to say it's been a while since I looked at any of your videos. I have been looking at some other instructors on various things such as openings, etc. What I have noticed by coming back is how well you explain everything, unlike most of the other instructors. You are a very, very good teacher!!

what if pawn b4 after queen pin

Wow, wow. I watched your video a few hours ago, and I applied your tricks, and I'm so unbeatable!! Thanks a lot, mam!!

That was the best explanation I have ever seen

Take you’re face away from the mic. The clicks in you’re voice are annoying

Damn.i didn't even finish the video and i won 5games with black.thank you man

God bless you 🎉🙏🙌

Dosnt work on Elo 800 :-(

You didn’t show how to defend against white queen to f3 2nd move?

thank you, thank you, thank you, wow. i had some nice results with this

Almost every game I play the 5th move by white after the classical setup is Bishop to D2. Can you discuss the best reaction to this? Do you immediately move the queen to C7?

The first opening I ever played in chess 😂 Qa5 is trash

Mr.Ramirez is excellent teacher.

Can u please guide what to do if the white brings the bishop to d2 after moving queen to a 5

👌👍

Geeeez are you serious. You ramble on way too much

LESS WAFFLE PLEASE.

Hi there Ramirez! Great video, solid opening option to black 👍🏻
What is the idea in case of white, after c6, protect the pawn with Qf3? Not only the pawn is protected but also plan B is ruined… you recommend keeping the development or change tactics? 🤔
Thanks for your time and knowledge! 👍🏻

DO NOT PLAY. F7 is untenable. You will lose, lose, losw.

This system is no good and easily overwhelmed. Play at your own peril.

They always break the knight pin with their bishop though....

Excellent. Gonna try this next game!

Didnt work great for me when they castled queen side and im only 1000

How should white play after e4 nf6?

Defo gonna give that a try when dealt the black!

What about if someone tries the Wayward Queen attack followed by the Bishop attacking F7?

Nice game

Haha .. this is fun. Thank you I've had some enjoyable games playing this. I've recently taken up chess during lockdown after a 40+ year break from the game ( work/family commitments) and badly needed a simple go to black opening while I spent time relearning my old tournament repertoires... the old 70 year old brain is not as sharp as it once was but this opening fits the bill especially if you have a good grasp of middle and end game concepts. Again, many thanks. Recomended to try for all.

Thanks bro

Ty for the video, my black is really weak but been trying to learn the czech pirc thanks to you and my winrate has gone up with 25% in the last week :)

Great opening. Thank you. I finally beat a 1500 bot. tried like 100 times before, but through this I did it!!! Great :D

In the king's pawn version, on white's fourth move, if they play pawn to F4 instead of bringing out their second knight or pushing a pawn forward, I think this opening starts to fall apart.

This was my opening i used when i was young it takes me back time since i rarely play it now. Gonna play it again sometimes thanks 👍

So the question is how to attack the pirc if you are white

I played chess at the competitive level for 20 years and the opening that gave me the worst statistics as black was this opening - close to 50%. I usually placed 1st or second in tournaments, but the period I used this opening I struggled to get into the top scorers. I rarely lost with the opening, but had too few wins. The main reason was that weaker players could play simple classical chess and get good positions that were hard to beat. That said, I know a person that was a specialist in this opening and used it one year to win the US Open. He did not have a long term career. My best scoring opening playing the top players in UK club chess was the Sicilian Accelerated Dragon, as evangelized for that level by Daniel Narodisky. My all time best scoring opening as black was the Nimzovich (100%) which is not objectively good but no-one knew the lines, and I played it really well - I had to in order to survive the opening.

As soon as you Develop your 2 pawns and the horse, he will move His pawn to e5. What to do then?
