      what if Bxh7 Kxh7 Ng5+ Kg6?

    • @orusanen

      ​@@yotamchaimmoshe8013typically Qd3+ is good follow up if Kg6 is played. Now Bishop at h5 even blocks an escape square. White also has The added option to play g4 and win back the piece.

      @@yotamchaimmoshe8013 Kg6, there's no usual Qxh5 or Qh5 but Qd3+. If Kh6 you hit them with Qh7#. If Nf5 or f5 against both you have atleast g4 to win the bishop and the king is still out in the open. Should be clear that you're somewhere between better and winning there. En passent against f5 looks natural and there you'd need to calculate a little more to make sure that you don't check him into safety or something. Kg6, Qd3+, f5, exf6+, Kxf6, O-O+, (e6 and f6 covered by the knight so only legal moves are Nf5 and Kh6 which is still M1). If Nf5, Qxf5+, Ke7 only move, Qe6#. So best defense is to block with Nf5 (after f5,exf6+ ideally because it allows you to retake on f6 with the queen) and take g4 to the chin and play a very sketchy position (engine +4).

    if you really want to get up fast, you can change your queue settings to play mostly stronger oppenents

  • @danielward7008
    @danielward7008 4 месяца назад +1

    You can change your settings to include only those within a rating range of 50 or 100 points. I agree its quite ridiculous to be playing someone 200 points lower than you at this stage.

    • @danielward7008
      @danielward7008 4 месяца назад +3

      There's something in that. 16-1700s play more daring chess but are still quite bad at spotting danger.
