Free Chess Lecture Shows: Two Takes on the Same Game
One version is mine, the other is GM Leonid Kritz's. Hopefully there's something in the former that isn't in the latter! The ChessLecture announcement is reproduced below:
This week, we again share not one - but two! - lectures, both offering different perspectives on the same game. We all know who super-GM Maxime Vachier-Lagrave is, but who is Karthikeyan? The 20-year-old Indian GM produced a great example of how to play positions with statically better pawn structure here.
Dennis gives his usual thorough analysis, background on the players, and a strong guide to the opening alternatives - enough to help you learn to play these lines yourself.
Leonid cuts directly to the high-level judgements that only strong GMs are able to make reliably - the kinds of judgements you can channel to make good decisions and plans in your own games.
That's why we recommend that you watch both!
