    Nicely presented. Thanks! I have just begun to play again (after a 20 +/- year hiatus :-) and was out here in the ethernet looking for tutorials, game tactics, techniques and examples, and came across you and your channel. Kudos for the YT video - it jogged the old memory cells and has me ready to set up the pieces and ATTACK! lol. You also got a new subscriber here, but think I'll also be taking some time to check out your other videos and classes.

  • @joebolognese1279
    @joebolognese1279 Před 3 lety +2

    In the 4th game, white's attack seems to fall apart if Black plays Nd4 after White plays h4, instead of Black playing Ne8(?) as he did in the game

    • @aquapony
      @aquapony Před 3 lety

      I think white can then play Qg6. The point about Ne8 is that it can go to f6 next to stop Qg6 being so useful

    7:30 u could even earn a pawn by doing kE5 because if he take the knight u'll take his queen with a bF7 in the next move.

  • @bethhall2543
    @bethhall2543 Před 3 lety

    In the 3rd game when Knight moves to H6 and Bishop x Knight, why doesn't Black just castle? Rook protects pawn from Queen attack and hence, a checkmate.

  • @jorgeluisguzmanmarin9820

    Flagship Trap in Ponziani Opening 7:16.
    What happened if the black queen takes the whit horse, wouldn't that stopped the attack?

  • @Nauxie
    @Nauxie Před 2 lety

    10:20
    There is one way I can think for black to defend the mate-
    Black's bishop to b4(check),
    White's pawn to c3(or any knight to block the check),
    Black's queen to e7(or f6).
    I think that will save the king
    (Note-white's knight to g5 and Black's knight to h6,so same conclusion)
    This is pretty tough situation so black actually loses more material than white does since black bishop may also be taken at the very end.

    • @avanhouten
      @avanhouten Před rokem

      Yes, also after loosing his knight at h6, he can 0-0, okay he looses a knight but not mate!

  • @arieardhana2676
    @arieardhana2676 Před 3 lety

    4:35 : how if black sacrefice knight nxc3?

  • @silacedisuza2018
    @silacedisuza2018 Před 3 lety

    4:40 what if instead of night b2, knight to c3 is played?

    • @zanti4132
      @zanti4132 Před 3 lety +2

      If ...Nxc3, White has to go back to playing boring chess and just take Black's queen. After Bxd8 Nxd5 Rc1 White is a piece up and still has an attack, although forcing mate may not happen. By the way, the same plan applies after ...a5 - take Black's queen to ensure a material advantage, and maintain that material advantage if you can't checkmate.

    • @nadzcc6558
      @nadzcc6558 Před 3 lety

      If he does that the bishop will capture the pawn and threaten the rook, black has to move it otherwise the bishop will simply capture the rook.

    • @cr4zyj4m1e87
      @cr4zyj4m1e87 Před 2 lety

      It's a double check. Look at the bishop on b3.

    @MmatanelL Před 3 lety
