I played a standard chess game as white with my opponent playing the Slav Defense. I opted for a quiet line, the exchange variation where little to no imbalance springs about structurally, or piece-wise. White hopes to grind out some tiny positional edge, or as the saying goes “draw blood from a stone”. Time controls are 15 minutes with a 2 second increment.

I’m a self-taught National Master in chess out of Pennsylvania, USA who learned how to play from my father in 1988 at the age of 8. The purpose of this channel is to share my knowledge of chess to help others improve their game. I enjoy continuing to improve my understanding of this great game, albeit slowly.
