FM Tarık Selbes - GM Yağız Kaan Erdoğmuş: How a Future World Champion Is Being Built

Of

course, I have no doubts about it whatsoever.

You can maybe show us some of his games.

know before and after kind of an effect and how we improve over time if you don't mind yeah sure so

uh first of all should i explain the dorfman method

to please please

okay i don't want to go into details of this method of course because yeah if you want to take the whole course if people want to go and like put some effort into it, you can acquire the book of Dorfman, The Method in Chess.

The Method in Chess.

I read it twice already.

It's a very interesting one for

sure.

Yeah, of course, it's an old book, so don't trust on it that much, but the idea kind of works.

The idea is that if you have a disadvantage statically then you have to play dynamically and one of the things he kind of came up with is how to define the static advantage and he says that the static advantage can easily be understood in the following way if one side can improve the position without depending on the other.

So here, for example, white can, the way he explains, here white can just develop, just the position can run on its course for white without black kind of doing anything.

So black can play bishop g2, knight f4, knight can come to d5, like castles.

So white's position develops freely.

So black doesn't have such a development.

Black's play is more dependent on

white.

So this is what Dorfman says.

And that's why, because black is at a disadvantage statically, black needs to play dynamically, he says.

And now he shows that this is a game he played himself.

So he plays a5.

And after knight f4, now he goes a4.

So he just wants to mix up the position.
