I've always wondered, but never bothered to ask or check myself before, so here goes: What's the number in the parentheses next to a players rating on the ICC, in this case for both players the number being 38.
At 22:32 you mentioned white's other options for move 6 as Qc2 and g4. The Shirov-Shabalov gambit is 6. Qc2 Bd6 7.g4, though. Congrats on the novelty! I hope to see the Bartholomew gambit used in a video soon.
So my girlfriend got really into GTA V Online recently and I've been playing with her every waking hour and neglecting my love of this channel, so tonight I told her I'm sleeping early. Need to catch up on my beloved fins
interesting reference to nazi Germany and napolian, however I think the union beat the confederates with space advantage ! and a lot of extra material too ! though mclelin however you spell it was hardly the best guy in charge !
Nice! I really enjoy listening to your thought process/ideas like this.
My fav chess channel at the moment, besides of ICC, Chessexplained & Co. Very instructive & smoothly explained. Congrats John & keep it up. :0]

It's the material count.

When ...Qc7, I was thinking ... Qb8 straight away.... saves a move sometimes and you'd have Qa7 sometimes.
Perfect opportunity for QGA ;)
+Justin Ferriman Ah darn, I forgot!
John, can you please play on Chess.com? You might get a chance to play against Naka :)
+Falcon Gaming I play there occasionally.
