About this session

Yeah, it's better always to have the initiative in our side, but sometimes opponent takes it.

During the stream I will share with you tips on how to handle that. 

I'll start the game with playing Nf3, Ng1 back, give opponent's some tempos, strong initiative, and then start the game. 

Many people do that as a joke or disrespect to an opponent. We will do that as training.

Don't miss this event, as it gonna be very useful.

See you!
