This is what I had in mind, when I talked to tournament director Jeroen van den Berg during the Essent Tournament in Hoogeveen and proposed to make videos during Corus. The daily press conferences by the top players, in which they explain their game to the journalists in the press room seemed like excellent material to me for showing to a bigger audience. And it is. Watch and enjoy this free chess lesson by the world's highest rated player. (And do the same with a part of the post-mortem of the game Motylev-Anand!)

Topalov explains his game against Van Wely from the second round. The press conference took more than 22 minutes so it's cut in three parts (YouTube only accepts videos of at most ten minutes):

Part I



Part II



Part III
