Whenever White plays d5, with a pawn on e4, he always seems to get good attacking chances. Way back in 1969 Spassky played d5 against Petrosian's Semi-Tarrash Defense and played e4-e5 next and won game 5 of their World Championship match. In that game Black had played Nc6 instead of the Nb-d7 as played here. Thanks for a good show.

Impressive performance.

Wow what a move to miss Bc2 Got me I missed it 😅 that’s a heckuva a Battery to find quite simple and effective Good find by Nikolas

What about Black does pawn d4, Bishop c2, then Black plays pawn d3. The pawn is protected by the Rook on D7.

@IngieKerr

you'll still be down the exchange - losing the rook and [a passed] pawn for a bishop, as the queen still guards d3, and that's not going to do your world much good :) [ i did ponder this line myself - so i upvote your question :) ]

@damienknight5655

If d4, any rook move is a discovered check and is winning.. One line can go Rf6+, Rdf7, Rxf7, Rxf7, Re8# or black sacrifices the queen and both rooks and would be queen vs bishop endgame which is also completely winning

YES🤩🤩! I stood up and celebrated when you confirmed the correct move, I'm so happy to have found it in 3 minutes Honestly, it's the same difficulty as the online puzzles I've solved recently, crossing 3200 in cc yesterday😅

Hi Agadmator, this is the first comment I leave so let me first of all say thanks for your awesome videos. I really enjoy them and watch them basically every evening since some years now. However, this time I would have a question: couldn't Arjun move the d-pawn down to block the bishop-queen connection. Once the bishop takes the pawn, the rook takes the bishop and the queen the rook. You are down the exchange but still alive (although still in a worse situation of course). I was just wondering. Thanks again for your great work. Cheers

At least Arjun hat plenty of time for lunch/dinner after the game.

"On move 18 we have a new game". This is the kind of thing that soured Bobby Fischer on classical chess.

@douggieharrison6913

15 күн бұрын

What soured him was he came back and got smoked after 20 years of inactivity. He had to memorize theory and openings in his day too, it just wasn't comprehensive. If Magnus stopped playing for 20 years and returned, the chess world would have passed him, too. The game evolves, the players either survive or go extinct. Bobby chose to go extinct. Dudes like Garry evolved.
