First of all great video. Had fun watching it. Just a few things i would like to point out: 10:20 you can capture the queen with your Bishop. This move is also suggested by the engine, which you can see in the top right corner. Generally, I appreciate that you analyze the moves yourself in the game review, but I would still recommend using the engine for assistance. At 14:15, I think you don’t see that the white queen is hanging because it has no squares and is attacked by the knight on f6. The idea behind Qg2 is that with Black, you threaten to capture the rook on h1 with check. The white king can only go to e2 or d2, and in both cases, you could then capture the rook on d1 with check, and subsequently capture the queen on h7 with the knight. As a result, you would have 2 rooks and 2 minor pieces against one knight. To really improve, I would recommend analyzing a bit more carefully to truly see what can be improved and to understand the moves better. Nonetheless, great video. Keep it up and continue this way.
Hey thanks for stopping by and thanks for the tips! What do you mean by using the engine for more assistance? Just looking at the suggested moves and lines?
@@IvanLChess Yes, I mean like at 10:14, where you go through a short variation but come to the wrong conclusion because you overlook that your bishop can capture the queen on f5, which the engine also suggests at 10:17 in the top right corner of the screen (20...Bxf5). I like that you think through the moves yourself, but I would personally recommend always taking a quick look at the engine when you go through such short variations, just to double-check.
I have started to watch your videos today. I am at the same level as you, but at times your insight impresses me, nearly thinking, « wow, really that dude is a GM pretending » ! 🤭 Thanks for your content, makes me want to dare play more.
Sometimes it probably slows my moves down. I think it helps me more after the game though. When I watch the game back and listen to my thought process it helps me find the mistakes in my reasoning sometimes.

haha no way I'm new to the game. Join my discord if you'd like to play sometime
@@IvanLChess I might some day! Do you find that speaking out loud and describing the position helps your thought process?
