    Step 1: Play the Wing Gambit
    Step 2: Your opponent has no idea what they are doing and takes you out of your preparation
    Step 3: You get confused
    Step 4: Just wing it

    But... Qb2 is a move. And is the ONLY Queen move that keeps the Queen safe, from what I can tell.

    19:58 white plays e7. And THAT IS BEAUTIFUL what happens after that. Now the black queen is blocked and the threaten of mate on g7 appears again, so black must defend and they shouldn't take the pawn either with rook or with queen because of the k:g6 with a fork on two rooks or a rook and a queen. Their most likely and most reasonable move is r:h7, protecting the pawn on g7 and preventing the mate.
    However in this case white can either play q:g7 or b:g4.
    First let's see the beauty of B:g4
    After this moove the black can capture on e7 or on c3 with the Dark Knight that hangs out on the edge of the board and makes no sense on a4. If the black goes k:c3, they get mated with b:e6 check, black's king can only move to h8 and k:g6 hits the last nail in the black box. MATE! Nice and smooth. However, if the black are not that dumb to take on c3 and capture on e7... With that queen or the rook?
    Let's first see what happens after q:e7. The white replies b:e6 check. Of the king falls back to h8, k:g6 comes again, but if he moves to f8, there's a fork on... No, no use of fork anymore, cuz that's a mate. With a knight and a bishop. And when the black moves r:e7 instead of q:e7, follows same check with bishop on e6. The black king can only move to f8, because on h8 there's gonna be the mate we've already seen twice. The white plays k:g6 fork on king and rook, king's only escape is e8, then white takes on e7 with a knight, and now black must choose between worse and the worst again. If they take the knight with the queen white plays q:g6 with a fork on king and the rook on h7, and then king flees, white takes the rook however leaving the bishop on d6 unguarded and black takes it with q:e6 and white plays r:g7. The position is trash for the black, I don't even need to explain how bad. Although if the black capture the white knight with a king and not with king, white simply plays q:g6(lol even my T9 already tips me that move:)), putting a threat on the black room on h:7, the rook can only step back on h8 but thee white goes q:g7 with a fork on a king a the rook and the black can not take the white bishop on e6 cuz that will leave their queen unguarded and exposed the white queen so that the black can only move the king to e8 and then white takes the rook on g7 threatening the black queen, and if she flees, white plays rook d7 check and if now it depends on where the black moved their queen to, because in two case she won't be able to trade that rook or in another one she will be but the rook is covered by a bishop so that it's either queens lost or mate cuz after r:d7 check the black king will havta run and the only square for him is c8 but after that the white plays q:e8 mate.
    Now let's regard the move q:g7(remember the beginning?:)) The black must take the Queen with their rook, then we strike it with r:g7. If black takes it with king(they may take it or may not. If not they just get a rook for a queenand I don't wanna think how white plays there, but that's gonna be a very hard position for them to play. Especially with that white pawn on e7), k:e6 with a fork on the king and queen, the black king steps off no matter which direction, white takes the queen on c7 with their knight, threatening the rook on e8. Best move for black is to take the pawn on e7 with a threaten of a white knight. And here white already get a nice endgame with one more piece and are going to fight back their pawn with k:b5, moving the knight out of sight of the rook that stands on a1 and putting a threat on the black knight on a4. Black can either play b:b5 capturing a white knight, then white take the bishop and the a4 black knight is still under a threat. Or if black's knight falls back white can now capture a pawn by r:a5 and then potentially trigger a pawn on d5 with that knight from c6 and a bishop that will havta move to f3.
    P.S. damn that took more more than an hour😂

    Hello Gotham, today i just finished n online vhess tournament where i plaved 35 out of 780 ppl n got the score of 7.5/10. I lost a game to a cheater(who was ban right after the game) if not i would have gotten an even higher placing in the tournament. The first time i joinrd any chess tournament i scored a pathetic 2.5/10 but now after watchin ur videos for the past 3 months i improved a bunch and i even got a performance rating of 1650. Just wanna say thank you for motivating me and teaching me even though u probably wont read this.

    Hmm. That last game was not a particularly good illustration of this gambit. Most any active player follows you or any number of chess content creators. This gambit is basically worthless now except for beating up lesser players to artificially inflate ELO. One would get more ELO points waxing this gambit... Play more instructive games against people nearer to your level. You were in no danger at all. That is not the atmosphere one really gets in general on the chess sites. I am always facing a player who can and (likely) will beat me. It would be better if you played that against a top level bot.

    • @janole654
      @janole654 3 года назад +2

      but normally the knight isn't on c6 (which Levy highlighted) in the advance variation which prevents pushing c5.I guess that's the big difference from a structural point of view

    23:21 what if Qa5, (white move), bxa3+, (white move), a2 ? The queen side is hanging, but i migth have missed something, I'm not high elo so, maybe there is a trap i didn't see

    Im hoovering around the 1400-1600 bracket . My next target is 1800 but i dont have the time to invest learning all the opening theory i vaguely remember some of it i still find 1500 players easy even though i only play about 4 games a week . Might need to “ wing it “ 🤪

  • @buffnerd4207

  • @Drawfill
    @Drawfill 3 года назад +2

    I love trying random openings for the first time then end up looking theory on it afterwards, and then it ends up being a gotham video. I tried it vs a sicilian completely by chance and won with 83% accuracy. Its a fun gambit to have in your repertoire.

    If Black plays f6 after you've already played h4, a lot of the time it's actually safe to have your Knight jump to g5. If Knight is taken by pawn then your Queen and Bishop are excellent and black's king safety destroyed.
