      Simon is definitely NOT a budget GM, I've seen the prices of his products and services, don't know what Alex was smoking when she said that... but she can stick that in her pipe and smoke it! 😉

  • @Av-uv6xu
    @Av-uv6xu 2 года назад +1

    Botez gambit works. At 5:09 knight instead takes knight should go to c5 discover attack on the queen. If king d2, defending queen, rook to f2 check. Queen blocks it's free queen as white knight would be pinned to the king. So king must move away of the 2nd rank and knight takes queen for free, black is back the material with so much better position and active pieces, knight attacking pawn and threatening forks, rooks coming to 2nd rank and so on.

    • @glenm99
      @glenm99 2 года назад

      It's a nice thought, but no. After Nc5, the queen blocks, and it's not a free queen. Black never has a second attacker aimed at e2, and doesn't have enough checks to drive the king away. If rook takes the queen on e2, the king just takes the rook back, and White is ahead by a full rook.

    • @Av-uv6xu
      @Av-uv6xu 2 года назад

      @@glenm99 so knight to g3. If king connecting rooks d2, than rook f2 check, king has to go back to the first rank, knight takes rook in the corner for free. With so much initiative and plenty threats this should be winning for black.
