Jonathan Schrantz teaches the Scotch Game, an underestimated opening that releases tension in the center early. Besides two notable games, the Goering gambit and the Dubois-Reti defence are also covered.

35:46 was en passent not invented???
too much jabbering, just show me the lines please
I love ‘the ‘ scotch too but find it difficult to play serious and sober when using the scotch. I tend to get so pissed get checkmated instantly!
Anybody ever try the absolutely ridiculous Nakhmasson gambit?
Was en passant playable in the game which would be discovered check
40:12
27:37 hehehehhehehehe
Thanks for the masterpiece. Yet missed one amazing trap in the Scotch with the knight jumping to g5 and sacrificing itself on f7
18:00 Isnt that just the loss of a knight and bishop for a rook, mostly concidered a bad trade? Stockfish just says position is 0,0 after this exchange. Engine seems to like Nd2 first better.

Wahaha 6:49 Paulie giving Duke head rub Rocky 4
What if at 13:55 Qd5 and if Pxc6 … Qxc5?
14:30
at 40:10 isn't the pawn on g6 hanging? if Rxg6 Rxg6 Bxf5+
The scotch is my favorite for white! Nirkowitz defence for black!
Tidak masuk akal ihh… Huhu.. Gak punya subscriber Ya!!
Great video
35:45 I might be wront but is taking "a passant" not an amazing move here. It gets a discovered attack on the king and if you defend with the horse the pawn takes it. If you block with the bishop you take thr horse with the other pawn.
I love how he gets less and less nervous as he talks ❤

Honestly, this kind of course is useless. You seem very nice and knowledgeable, but I believe this doesn’t help many of us. It’s super nice to analyse a bit top games, but what most of us want is to see the refutations. Why in this position, he chose to defend this piece. Just in the first 6 moves, black could have gone many different variations that are definitely worse for black, but that are hard to see over the board because they Include a lot of traps and tactics.
If we just wanted to see the engine moves, we’d do it ourselves. In a real game under 2400 Elo, you don’t reach even half of that main line.
Can you suggest me a good book for opening oriented planning and development of chess games
this truely is a great educational video on the scotch as it goes into a lot of opening and middlegame ideas instead of just focusing heavily on theory.
