20:46 Czech Pirc Defense THEORY!

In today's video, we take a look at another Czech Pirc Defense game. What is the Czech Pirc Defense? Look at the following moves below:

1. e4 d6
2. d4 Nf6
3. Nc3 c6

With that third move from the black side, we are officially in a Czech Defense setup. The Czech Pirc Defense is one of the best chess openings for black against e4! In this game by ‪@VBKramnik‬ (Vladimir Kramnik) we see a beatufil Czech Pirc game which highlights good chess opening theory, chess opening principles, chess opening ideas, chess opening strategy, chess opening tricks, chess opening traps, chess opening lines, chess opening variations, and chess opening moves. In chess, it is important to not only pick a chess opening, but also learn why you are playing certain moves! This is helpful as understanding chess strategy will help you in your overall game, in addition to when the theory portion leaves the main lines/main variations. In this video we also include chess opening ideas that are used in the Hippopotamus Defense (Hippo Defense), Pirc Defense, and Modern Defense. Many chess openings such as the Pirc Defense, Modern Defense, and Hippo Defense overlap - and the analysis of this game shows some of these chess ideas off.

The Czech Pirc Defense is a very strong chess opening for black against e4. The Czech Pirc Defense is also a good chess opening for beginners. Why? It is easy to learn, and the chess opening theory/chess opening ideas/chess opening moves/chess opening principles/chess opening lines/chess opening variations are simple to grasp and utilize. The Czech Pirc Defense has also been used by many players including Vladimir Kramnik, Varuzhan Akobian, and Michael Adams. In fact, there is a video on this chess channel covering when Garry Kasparov lost to it! See below for more chess opening videos on the Czech Pirc Defense!

I also included some chess opening theory videos on the (regular) Pirc Defense, Hippo Defense, and Modern Defense as many of the ideas in those chess opening systems overlap with the Czech Pirc Defense!
