      @@johnnymetonymic If you don't play chess, the most likely scenario is that he's thinking further ahead than you :D You should try playing! But trying to figure out why his moves make sense (or don't make sense) is also good practice. I find myself pausing and pondering why he didn't make my "obvious" move, and often realize it's because my obvious move has an obvious response from the opponent that would blow it out.
      "Obvious" is relative to your Elo rating, basically -- grandmasters see a weird pawn move as obvious because they can play it through mentally and see that it wins them the endgame, whereas taking a free queen isn't always obvious to someone who just learned the rules.

    27:40 why wouldn't you just take with the bishop? Then they can't take it without trading their rook for it. If they don't you're up a pawn, if they do you're up a rook for a bishop. Instead you took with the rook and let them just trade rooks.
