Well, that was a nice one. An eye opener. I did not find it and I knew it was going to be a Zwish too. :)
Thanks for sharing, cool move.
Beautiful!
I bought Joe's book "Winning with the King's Gambit", published by Batsford back in 1992. I remember thinking what great value it was for content and accurate detail.
Joe’s books are excellent.
Lovely! Ty DK!
Great quiet killer move, especially as there are other moves on the theme that don't achieve the same result.
Instead of ...Re7, I'd play Qb8 forcing an exchange of queens. When I checked my move with the Stockfish, I found out it gives white 0.90 advantage, but I think that psychologically the queen exchange favours black.
On principle, I think it is a mistake to exchange queens. Rook and bishop (or in this case two bishops) is well known to be a powerful combination of pieces. In this case, 26...Qb8 27 Qxb8 Nxb8 28 Rd1 Nc6 29 g4 is very pleasant for White: squeezing with pawns on the kingside and bringing the king towards the centre are easy plans and it is hard to find counterplay for Black.
Joe used to be a star young player at my chess club (Wimbledon) in the early 80s and was quite happy to play five minute against me, a patzer. We'd go into long lines of the King's Indian, who would have thought he'd write books on it and become a GM and British Champion! Nice guy.
I got it, but to be fair only because I knew there was something and I had guessed it was a zwizchenzug. In real play it would have been doubtful thanks Daniel.
I take back " without problems "
I'm in awe of anyone who could see this.
On second look I was able to see far enough to think black could regain the pawn. That suggests that my own strength is closer to 2298 than to 2526. 🙂
Can strong players basically just move pieces around on a board in their mind's eye?
Yes.
I was looking at d3, because I am also a very impatient player! However, on the balance, I don't quite like freeing White's dark-squared bishop and opening up the center all that much. I felt wary of the bishop pair. I also did not like exchanging the light-squared bishops off all that much if there was no additional benefit to it, as that bishop is quite an important defensive piece for Black. Perhaps it would be possible in some variations to utilize it to put pressure on c2, in combination with one of the heavy pieces occupying the c-file. The biggest problem, though, is that knight on c6, in my eyes. Maybe rerouting it via e7 would hold some promise.
Or...as I said in the video...one could do nothing (which might be best) but players don't often have the patience or confidence to do this.
@@PowerPlayChess I certainly do not, most of the time. It takes a certain kind of resolve, I think - a resolve to try to play the best move rather than the most ambitious one. You could view it as a kind of courage, in that you are willing to play to a draw if necessary. Most players in my experience (this is no doubt influenced by my intermediate to expert rating range) view a draw almost as poorly as a loss.
Instead of Re7 i was wondering if f6 would be fine because b5 somewhat destablizes the Nc6 and Kg8 is very hard when ur last move is Kh7- by f6 i provide support to Ne5 if needed to black off e file and someday black can also play Bbf7 trading light bishops etc tho i must say i dont see any long term ideas for black either, probably Re7 then is a threat as e5 is covered etc
Yes, 26...f6 is possible and fine for Black. One downside: the e6 square is weakened, although it isn't possible for White to exploit that at the moment.
Since it was Black who made the decision to sacrifice the pawn , it would be incumbent on him to be accurate in his calculation. White could have seen f4 and Qe5 once the position with Qc7+ arose .
Naturally, Black should have been more accurate in his calculation. Joe saw Qe5 before exchanging everything - this is not kick and run chess. But in general I think this is an interesting moment in the game because Black was just a bit too eager to simplify - and that is a very common problem.
I did not see it.
Hi Daniel, my friends bought me your book on the Kalashnikov Sicilian for my birthday. I haven't started studying it yet, but I wanted to ask you: after 1. e4 c5 2. Nf3 Nc6, how can I force White to play 3. d4?
You can't force your opponent to make any of these moves!!
In a fun Blitz game at least you could trash talk them about it.
In an official game the arbiter will intervene 😢
before studying the Sicilian Kalashnikov, I decided to buy your course on the anti-Sicilians for Black. If after 1. e4 c5 2. Nf3 Nc6 white plays 3. Ab5, I should play the Rossolimo Sicilian. So now I'm studying your related video. Un saluto dall'Italia.
As poorly as humanly possible. That's your answer, Mr King.
Thank you. Refreshing candour.
sent me items i could not use demands open call
d3 instead of Te7 would have equalized without problems.
'without problems' I might take issue with.
@@PowerPlayChess I only repeat the engine's opinon.😉
b5 also works
@@henningfraas3500 Thank you for your admission. Your suggestion certainly didn't look very human and 'without problems' is looking even more dubious as an assertion. I recommend you have a look at the position without an engine and see how easy you find it. And not just the first move.
I spotted nothing despite the clue. 😅
Exercise for 2500 and more
I think you are underestimating masters here.
clutter in the background
Yup! Too many unsorted books!
