@Kaldas90 Did you just play E4????

@Kaldas90 @YeOldBurritoMan @bennettchess @chessable Wow very nice, for the casual online/sometimes club player what do you recommend the LTR series or gftt and btr? Just curious

@Kaldas90 Ah so i'm guessing 1. e4 e5 2. Nf3 Nc6 3. Bc4 Nf6 4. d3 d5 5. exd5 Nxd5 6. O-O Nb6 7. Bb5 Bd6 8. Bxc6+ bxc6 9. Nxe5 Bxe5 10. Re1 Qe7 is the move order for the italian i was curious if you'd recommend Nb6 Bg4 or Be7 but this seems like the line with the most dynamism

@Kaldas90 Thanks! Seems interesting

@Kaldas90 What did you decide to recommend against it at the end? I think finding something new is too cumbersome for the KG as everything under the moon is covered

@Kaldas90 @chessable Alright thanks kamil! Kudos and happy holidays for you and your family!

@Kaldas90 @chessable Great! I don't particularly care about engine evals as everything is playable on a non-super gm level and i'm pretty satisfied with all line choices in both ur LTR series so i trust ur play, but if i may ask why did you choose Bd7 at the end instead of ulvestad/fritz variation?

@Kaldas90 @chessable Also one more thing, did you find equalizers in all these lines? I don't particularly care about engine 0.00 but i remember in the LTR QG u looked at the theoretical edge (eg trompowsky with Ne4 h4 in break the rules and Bishop drops back in LTR) i'm curious what the "rules" were

@Kaldas90 Great! No treat better than kamil's cooking

@Kaldas90 If i may there's a variation that's quite tricky, again i'm not really sure if it would hold up in a LTR but i would say it's safer than the ulvestad, 1. e4 e5 2. Nf3 Nc6 3. Bc4 Nf6 4. Ng5 d5 5. exd5 Nd4 at first the engine hates it(story of my life) but changes its mind > depth

@Kaldas90 What's more interesting is what is the line recommended for stockfish to say just play Kf7 and spare me

@Kaldas90 @chessable I actually thought Qf3 would be recommended so that's pretty nice, but against the classical main line if i may ask 1. e4e52. Nf3Nc6 3. d4exd4 4. Nxd4Nf6 5. Nxc6 bxc6 6. Nc3 and as u can see i'm pretty active on ur twitter, i use the queens gambit and tromp as my main so curious

@Kaldas90 I'll be waiting for the 1800 variation course then. And the beard most importantly

@Kaldas90 Crazy, now on a serious note i'm curious how many total variations are planned? If the accelerated dragon was 1600 i'm extremely curious how much E5 would be ;p
