This is a live, 1.5 hour lecture I gave on Friday, Oct. 6, 2017 at the Oslo Chess Festival. The topic of the lecture was “Common Themes Below 2200.” Most of the examples are from videos I’ve posted on this very channel (see below), so feel free to check those out if you’d like additional explanations.
Thank you to Pål Nordquelle (Oslo Chess Festival organizer), Kimiya Sajjadi (Oslo Chess Festival organizer), Tarjei Svensen (the well-known chess journalist you see here), all those who attended this lecture, and especially Øyvind Malin, who recorded, edited, and sent me this video.
