Description: In this continuation of the "Climbing the Rating Ladder" series I take on players of various ratings levels while pointing out typical mistakes and spots for improvement along the way (possibly my own!? :)). Here I commentate a 10+0 game against a player rated 1349 on Chess.com. Early in the Philidor Defense (1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 d6), my opponent makes a common and tempting pawn push, ...c7-c5. Do you know how to react? #Chess #ChessInstruction #ClimbingTheRatingLadder Review this game on Chess.com: chess.com/game/live/35011811447 Support the channel: streamlabs.com/johnbartholomew or via PayPal: t.co/VBFOLJHt2m Follow me on Twitch: twitch.tv/johnbartholomew Follow me on Twitter: twitter.com/fins0905 Add me as a friend on Chess.com: chess.com/member/fins0905?ref_id=1761842 My 100 Endgames You Must Know Course on Chessable: chessable.com/100-endgames-you-must-know/course/5193/?ref=jbrl My London System (1.d4 and 2.Bf4) Course on Chessable: chessable.com/the-london-system-essential-theory/course/15820/?ref=jbrl The Checkmate Patterns Manual (with CraftyRaf): chessable.com/the-checkmate-patterns-manual/course/17841 My Scandinavian Course (1.e4 d5) on Chessable: chessable.com/book/im-john-bartholomews-scandinavian/79/?ref=jbrl I offer private online chess lessons.
