I played as black in this game, and opted for the the Nimzo-Indian Defense where both dark-squared bishops ended up being exchanged for a knight. Of the 2 exchanges, it was black’s capture on c3 which produced structural damage. This would become a big focal point in the game. Could the doubled c-pawns be exploited? How might the value of the pieces, and the pawn majorities be influenced by this different structure? The Rapid time control for this game is 15 minutes with a 10 second increment.

I’m a self-taught National Master in chess out of Pennsylvania, USA who was introduced to the game by 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.
