    3:42, I once learned a bit about the poisoned pawn, the queen doesn't always get trapped but sometime the queen gets taken too far away from the action, forcing the opponent to waste time getting the queen back in the action/queen is useless so black essentially doesn't have a queen because it is in a bad place. In this position black's pieces are too far away from the action.

    • @Touplopl
      @Touplopl Месяц назад

      It's white to move so white plays rook f3 if black goes Rg8 white checkmates with rook to h3. I believe you were confused about which side plays but it's white and mate in 3 is unstoppable. After white plays rook f3 best move for black is e5 since it allows the bishop to block the incoming check from the rook so rook captures then queen blocks and its mate in like 17 for white if black finds e5 and I'm highly doubting that white could calculate all that but it'd still be mate for the engine and even if white doesn't find the mate in 17 he has a big advantage ( from my own opinion I don't know if black can draw) but the slightest mistake from white will be a blunder

    Nothing better than a game from 200 years ago where maybe they weren't playing the top lines each move but with a juicy sacrifice they could get a mate very nice to watch, that's why a prefer studying the old games rather than following the GM's of today playing careful and with computer like precision, for me kinda boring

    Hey I really enjoy your chess content and I think you break these things down in a relatable way. The problem I have recommending your content is the humor around four minutes. I can't recommend viewers to a channel that makes a decent amount of jokes at women's expense. I am sure my opinion is moot, but I thought I would share in case you might be interested in reading it.

    • @mortalchess
      @mortalchess  Месяц назад +4

      Nah, these are the comments I pay attention to the most.. it's a pretty diverse audience geographically, and what makes one person laugh makes the other cringe, so I do read the comments to try and gauge the climate on how some of these jokes are taken.
      That was one of the milder ones but some are worse I agree, and probably why most sponsors don't wanna touch this channel with a 5 foot pole lol..
      no ill will nor hidden agenda I'm tryna push I promise, just a guy making some jokes that will likely come back to bite him in the butt..

      it's white to play, that's the best move I think..the line does lose a queen for the rook tho. nowhere near game over at our level but these are GMs. queen up plus weak king, only one result.
