I Hosted A Ponziani Chess Tournament

Watch live: https://www.twitch.tv/imrosen -- Follow to get notified when I go live! In this video, I run a 45-minute viewer tournament in which every game starts in the Ponziani Opening. The Ponziani is a simple and beginner-friendly opening in which white tries to seize control of the center as quickly as possible. Throughout this tournament, I play some interesting and instructive chess games with the Ponziani and against the Ponziani. 0:00 Roller Coaster Ponziani 11:44 Another Ponziani 19:35 Another Ponziani 24:57 Another Ponziani 29:05 Another Ponziani 33:58 Another Ponziani I'm now a chess.com affiliate!
