Great video - thank you.

Connected knights seems to have been killing me in the vs computer games I play - I always catch it too late but now that I saw it on your video it makes a lot more sense to me.  Been reading a lot, losing to the computer a lot, but I guess it takes a video between the eyes to make such a seemingly simple thing real.  Been playing for 9 days now - that's it - so your offering is fantastic for me.

Your way of explaining ideas is most helpful. I had already used several of your videos on youtube. I just found the "checkmate puzzles" one, yess.

 

By the way, that doom-filled intro song in some of your video is awesome. And using moonlight sonata in the puzzles video... both my favourite song in terms of chords/keys and also my favourite song to play chess to. Classy choice, sir.

Thanks.
