My HIPPOPOTAMUS DEFENSE COURSE: [ Ссылка ]

In today's video, GM Hikaru Nakamura @GMHikaru plays the Hippopotamus Defense again, and with great success! In this video, we look to analyze the Hippo Defense by Hikaru and specifically how he utilizes certain chess strategies. We see good examples of chess opening theory, chess opening strategy, chess opening tactics, chess opening tricks, chess opening traps, chess opening moves, and chess opening ideas. The Hippo Defense is a dangerous and underrated chess opening for black, and chess opening for white as well. I myself used the Hippopotamus Defense to earn both CM and NM titles. Is FM next? Not sure. But for now I am taking a break from competitive chess. My goal is to hit 100K subs on YouTube, and in terms of competitive chess, hitting NM was my goal. Now that I did that, I am switching to YouTube content. Subscribe to The Chess Giant if you haven't already! Appreciate you!

There is a ton of stuff out there, but I want to narrow things down to one question. How do we improve at chess? How do we take our game to the next level? My answer is simple. Focus on two things, those being chess tactics and chess endgames. Chess openings are important, I mean y'all have seen how much energy I've putten into Hippopotamus Defense content! However, in terms of improving ELO - make sure not to skip over tactics and endgames.
