    About 13:30 'Queen to f1 is checkmate': it is not because white has a bishop defending that square. Checkmate would be queen to f2.

      Was tjonking the same thing. Perhaps he meant to say that, or hypothetically if the c4 Bishop were to move, then yes it would be checkmate, but I think he meant Qe2, because never moved to f1 duding that exchange. Chek it Out! Ciao!!!

    @tagginos you can castle as long as the king and rook have not moved, and the king is not in check and does not move through an attacked square. It does not matter if the rook is attacked or moves through an attacked square.

    at 13:02 , instead of castling we can play Knight to e2 with check . Opponent has to take with his bishop playing bishop to e2. We then recapture with our bishop playing bishop to e2. Now queen to F1 checkmate is a threat and we don't have to worry about a bishop keeping an eye on the F1 square. Also we don't loose a knight for free. Castling after wards and bringing in the rook can also work. Just a fun alternate line....truly a great video....keep it up

      @niravapurv4578 3 года назад

      Witch forced mate are you finding? Neither Bf3 or Rf3 seems to work out. Because the biskop on c1 could defend h6 against the rook after d3. And the pawn on g4 after take bishop on g4 would give white a tempo.... but perhaps the tempo dont help.. white will be forced to sac the queen after Rf3, xg4, Rf4, Qb3, Rxg4, Qf3... but with could play Rf2 instead of Qb3 and plack doesnt get time to take on g4... if so loosing the queen.
      Bf3 seems not to work because Rg1 defends the pawn for now... and black could bring in the rook, but it takes 2 moves to bring it to like h5.. and for me its not clear if atack works or white survives when pawn on h3 is still standing, white could still play Qb3 and Kh1 or just after Qb3, if rook goes to f file, queen can just take bishop on f3. Please explain witch forced mate you see, i cant see it.

      anyways i cheated and used comp on lichess.. very complex position.. so a little fact chek with stockfish says that if Be2, white plays h3 to make a runnaway squaere for the king.. then the comp actually start repeating cheks with queen on f1 and f4.. so for me its not clear :) nice spoted move anyways, Be2 looks like a difficult test. it looks like black needs to involve the rook...
      but infact my comp analysis is fucked up.. because on 13:09 its white to move.. black just did rockade.. so its better to be precise on the timing too.

    ;Only one thing. 12.50 of the video.. "..black plays Qf5", but a better move exists that leads to forced win, Qf4. White has only 2 moves, if Kg1 then Ne2, forced is Bxe2 and the white queen in a4 drops (that is why it is so important for black to play Qf4 to the start of this variation) and the other option white has (after ..Qf4) is Ke1 that leads to worst things after the simple.. 0-0-0.

      First tell him not to use all caps then tell him that people shouldn't tell each other what to do. Yea, makes sense. No contradiction there.
      Secondly, your logic is fallacious. Knowing the basics of chess doesn't mean it won't be easier to follow with the right board orientation. It will be easier for someone to follow whether they are beginner or advanced with the right orientation.
      Lastly, although people seem to be forgetting it these days there is this thing called 'free speech'. The price for criticizing is not making a video. You get to criticize without doing that. If you don't like it then instead of being an internet asshole why don't go to Syria or some other dictatorship where free speech is not allowed.

      Locutus D'Borg is correct. He's reminding us that in "computerese" all caps is a form of screaming. I don't think Dirk was trying to scream, but coupled with the exclamation mark, the use of the word "should" as if this is a moral obligation, and the use of a command mode of language, the comment does seem a bit overbearing. I think D'Borg is justified in simply reminding us of internet etiquette.

Black is down a pawn and can't castle, but Black has a pawn structure in the centre that is solid for a while, and the potential to overwhelm White's kingside with so many pieces aimed that way.

      I think it is a way of emphasizing that the involvement is active. It is a natural example of the way all languages contain degrees of redundancy which in fact serve a purpose. Otherwise we would be Grammar Robots!

    13:00 After WK moves to g1 isnt it better to advance the knight ? Knight to e2, only move is bxe2 then another bxe2 and white has no moves to stop a checkmate but qd1. Then bxd1 and its an easy game for black?

    at 13:01 the black bishop can move to e2 making a checkmate in 1 move with queen, if whites bishop on c4 takes, then knight on d4 can retake with a checkmate in one.

  • @theminuteman6211
    @theminuteman6211 5 лет назад

    I don't get why at 15:40 Black wouldn't just Kxf2. If Nxe2, then Ke3 places attack on both knights. Black would then play h4 right? (genuinely unsure) If so, then White can bring Queen f1 and start attacking.

  • @kornerstoneforkenz
    @kornerstoneforkenz 12 лет назад

    One line not mentioned here for white is, that after black brings the bishop to c5, that white can simply castle kingside putting his rook on f1 defending f2 and once again forcing black to deal with the possibility of knight to f7.

    Hey, there is actually a really efficient counter attack, but I don't know the name of it, so do you guys know? It goes like this:
    1. e4 e5
    2. Nf3 Nc6
    3. Bc4 Nf6
    4. Ng5 d5
    5. exd5 Nd4
    6. d6 Qxd6
    7. Nxf7 Qc6
    8. Nxh8 Qxg2
    9. Rf1 Qe4+
    10. Be2 Nf3#
    There are other variations, but I suggest you try it out. To everybody reading this and who has tried this out (just grab a chess simulation programm and play it so you can see) and who wants them to see thumbs up!

  • @batdorfvideo
    @batdorfvideo 14 лет назад

    @tagginos Its a valid question! The rule is that when a king goes to castle, he cannot pass through check. Since the knight is not attacking either f8 or g8, the king is allowed to castle.

  • @ANSIcode

    There is a mistake in the analysis. At 13:52
    Position is: 2k2r1N/pppn2pp/8/3Pp3/Q1BP4/7K/PP1P1qP1/RNB4R b - - 0 18
    The best move is Rf4 with a FORCED MATE IN 8!!!
    Which is executed as follows, where white sacs most of the pieces to prolong the game.
    18... Rf4 19. g3 Rf3 20. Rg1 Qxg1 21. Qxd7+ Kxd7 22. Bb5+ Kc8 23. Bd7+ Kxd7 24.

  • @infiniteV115
    @infiniteV115 14 лет назад

    @shinyninetales999 If white pushes g3, black can simply move his queen to f6 and this is the exact same position as if he had gone to f6 in the first place, except white now has a weakness added to the kingside. Also after the g3 Qf6 position, black can (probably not immediately but later on in the game) push the d pawn and then bring the bishop to h3.

  • @M4X1M9

  • @philnoll
    @philnoll 13 лет назад

    White has two ways to fight for a win in this game. The first is 5.Kxf2 Nxe4+ 6.Ke3!
    If instead 6.Kg1, black can force a draw, but with 6.Ke3 white can play for a win.
    Another unclear line occurs after 5.Kf1 Qe7 6.Nxh8 d5 7.exd5 Nd4 8.h3! These lines take a lot of effort and precision from both players, and with best play white only keeps a slight edge after defending the entire game.

    Black misses a mate in 3 moves at 13:07 when he castled. Instead of castling: 1. ...Ne2+ 2. Bxe2 Bxe2 3. Qd1 Bxe1 then mate in about 4 more moves max. If white doesn't move the queen to d2, then black Qf1#.

  • @jamescwolf
    @jamescwolf 5 лет назад

    at 7:50 he shows black castling, but black's rook is in check by the knight on F7, so I don't think it's a legal move, is it?

    • @MrMrfreedom1
      @MrMrfreedom1 5 лет назад

      I don't know much about this stuff, but I think you cant castle if the King is in check. There is no such thing as having a rook in check. More like the black rook is "under attack" vs. being "in check," hope that clears it up.

    • @jamescwolf
      @jamescwolf 5 лет назад

      I just looked it up. You can still castle even if the rook is under attack. The king can't cross a checked square, and obviously can't castle into check.
