      I’d have to go for Morphy vs Duke of Brunswick and Count Isouard, it’s barely even a queen sac but it’s a fun game. Also it would be interesting to see some games where the sacrifice doesn’t quite work, to remind us that they’re human too (and the ideas can still be instructive)

    I watched some documentary on youtube about the development of chess playing computers. So the first time they tried to apply machine learning to train a chess computer, they just fed a neural network a bunch of GM games and wanted to see how it performed. When they tested it, the computer played a normal opening then immediately 'sacced' its queen for no reason, since it had learned that in GM games when someone just yeets their queen they almost always win in the next 5 moves, so it thought that was how to win. Got me laughing lol

    Causes the opponent to have to sacrafice the queen to get rid of the bishop (if you take the rook Nxf3 is mate) or the bishop for g6 (you can't play the same moves as black just take with h7 because if this happens after Bg4+ white has Kg6, which was taken by h7 before and if you move your rook white just takes) (playing Nxg6 won't work because Bg4+ is no longer gaurded by the knight)

    I believe I played my first queen sacrifice game just about a week ago. It was more of a 'go ahead and take my queen', then mate in 1 with my bishop. I don't know if that counts but he took the bate and I was very happy.

    been following you since the queens gambit, nice content i watch some of your vids regularly if the title catches my fancy, and yet as someone who have played chess very seldom throughout my life, the most interesting thing i as a newbie heard you say was: the queen isnt there to protect the king, the queens job is attacking. and thats something you dont learn from a chess rulebook.
    would be nice to see a video from you where you give lil nuggets of ingo that to you or anyone above 1000 elo would seem logical but that chess affictionados might not know.

    That final Queen to give the win, was dazzling. I suck hard on Chess. Never took the time to learn, I just know things go there and I lose. But forcing the king (Or pawn) to move only to then not but two turns later, make that same move that had to be played be your undoing. What a wild card play.
