Hello chessfriends and welcome to my new series The London system. In this series we will study an effective weapon as white, so while studying this opening I think you can have a good opening repertoire, because it is very important to have good openings prepared to compete in a decent level in chess.

In this video I will show you how to play the London System against the Slav Defense

(4/4) On another note I could do with some tips on how to get a good sleep. It seems like I am a fully fledged insomniac. πŸ˜΅β€πŸ’«
I was in bed at 1am last night but didn't even manage to get 1 minutes sleep after tossing and turning all night. Been awake for about 40 hours now. 😱

(3/4) I missed one very likely obvious winning move.
Here I played Bg2? but I should just play Qh6!
For some reason I had missed ...Qxh6 Bxh6 ...Nxc3 a3! Which is game over.
In the end I lost πŸ˜” after Johann played excellently.
