    Hi @6:57 would qxA2 be a better move? If white queen takes bishop then RxrD1 white kxRD1 Black Qa1 check king moves then QxRH1. Or am I off?

    The position at 2:00 I am not sure that black is dominating as much as you make it out to be. White can just go Nb5 and threaten both the queen and a fork on c7. Black will have to move the queen to either a more awkward position blocking a bishop, or move it all the way back. In either case white is getting an annoying knight on b5, that black will have to deal with and waste time on getting rid off.

  • @stewartsmith6182
    @stewartsmith6182 3 месяца назад

    I've been in this position with White quite often.
    After NxE4 i knew the pawn thrust was coming if i recaptured with my Knight so at this point i always play BxF7+
    After the King takes the Bishop i then capture the Knight
    Now he can't castle and the game is even.
    I have obviously played this wrong but i've won more games than i've lost by doing this.

    I know that to take is a mistake. But sometimes we are forced to release the tension. Could you tell me in what situations we can release the tension without problems and also what are the situations that we can play a3/a6 or h3/h6 to avoid pins or other kind of attacks without problems or being passive or weakening our castling? Thanks.

    People in the comments saying "Its harsh to call 60 million people dumb," is basically arguing with a more knowledgeable person and the data backing him up.
    Another example: If someone goes for a run, doesnt tie their shoes/laces beforehand, and falls down/gets hurt, then who is at fault?
    Is it the laces for being untied, or is it the person for making a literal dumb mistake leading to a blunder? Its the human making the blunder/mistake and would/should be rightly called out on it.
    Also realize it the mistake is dumb not the people. (Though out of 60 million people there could be "dumb" people based on IQ but no way to verify that across all of them.)
