Chess Castle sells some interesting short videos on specific topics.  I am going to purchase one with the idea of reviewing it for everyone.  Has anyone gone through one that they think is really good for this purpose?  If I don't get a decent recommendation, I'll just pick one, but I'd prefer to have an idea of what their best is (or average) product is, so that I have a baseline for what to expect otherwise.

People who sell anything chess related seek me out personally.  Money Mouth  How they knew me, I'm not sure.  How did 50 Moves Magazine know who I was?  No clue.  It's not hard to find my email.

But!  If their stuff is good, I want to support it (and consume it).

ACM is offering a 10% discount on their products for a few days.   I bought the one on exchange sacrifices and it is quite good for the price.  I may buy a few more.

By the way, also check out Chess University.  They have outstanding videos.  I bought the series by Kostya Kavutsky and it is excellent.  Also the series by Vishy Anand is great too, although a little expensive for obvious reasons.

C.H., 10% from their website or in the magazine? Also, where the heck have you been? The BCF misses you.

Kavutskiy is amazing. Completely agree, but just about everything else at Chess University is a joke. Perrine's stuff looks promising, though. I bought it, but haven't gone through it yet, since Kavutskiy's second sacrifice course came our. Be sure to throw him a few bucks via Pstreon!

We've been in the process moving so been busy for the past year.  Hope to return to BCF in the fall.
