  • Featured is the game between Vasyl Ivanchuk and Veselin Topalov from the 1996 Novgorod Tournament. When two dynamic players meet, the game is almost sure to be exciting. The opening is a Sicilian Defense: Scheveningen Variation, Classical Variation. The focal point in the game is the weakest square in black’s camp, f7. This game is a nice reminder of how this weak square can still be weak after the opening phase, and after castling. Outside of the beautiful and accurate attack by Ivanchuk is a dash of humor with his 27th move.
    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.

    everyone comments that these videos are relaxing, but i'd like to mention that it's fantastic as someone with autism in particular. No sudden volume changes, no "hype", nothing surprising at all - except the cool chess moves themselves! In a world where intentional overstimulation "for engagement" is basically the norm, you're an absolute angel ❤

    Hey! I am doing it the same way :) - when the promo square is well defended and i capture/promote i do it into some not valuable piece - so oponent need to waste a tempo to capture it ;) - some oponents dont capture - but for sure they would capture if it was a queen :)

  • @pianissimo7121
    @pianissimo7121 Год назад +1

    I think one of the reason might be he had the knight in his hand. He has to ask for extra queen. He could have used the dead rook. Funny either way. I would never do that cause i would worry about it not being forcing and opponent having some insane tactic to win the game.

    The knight promotion threatens RxB mate. So 27. ... Kg8 28. Nf6+ (not sure which one) gxNf6 29. Nf6+ and the queen is forked.

    • @That1GuyWhosNumber1
      @That1GuyWhosNumber1 Год назад

      While true, if it's a queen promotion, there's still a threat of RxB mate. If you're analyzing 27. ...Kg8 to defend the bishop, with a queen promotion it's RxB# instead of just winning the queen.
      It doesn't actually matter what the pawn is promoted to; the engine lines all call for Rxe8 after promotion.

    The knight promotion gives black a tiny chance to mess up, the queen promotion does not. So the knight promotion is in theory the marginally better move. Maybe the reasoning is that simple? 🤪
