I wonder about the outpost statement tbh, because isn't blacks e6 pawn kind of the equivalent to whites d4 pawn? Black normally tries to put pressure on the d4 early on and white wants to break on e6 so in theory shouldn't that be an important square? Otherwise I only can agree to the other comments, great video Sandro, very instructional! Also thanks to Noah to agree to putting the training sessions online👍🏻

Can you please specify the time in the video? I can't find the outpost statement 😅 Thank you for the kind words, happy you enjoyed it :)
@ketonicm8504 14 күн бұрын
Minute 13:45 , that "all of those squares seem completely useless" to you. I'm confused by this especially because the plan for black is to push the c pawn for the break so the e6 would lack it's defender and be an easier target (but maybe I'm not understand something).
@LionChess 14 күн бұрын
@@ketonicm8504 Oohhhh okay, I see what you mean. Thanks for the timestamp. You are correct in your thinking, but there's a vital difference you're missing. d4 is ALREADY a weakness (base of the pawn chain) while e6 is not. I agree that it WILL BE if they successfully pawn break with f5 and go fxe6 and we have to recapture fxe6. In that case, it really would be the equivalent of their d4 pawn, making the outpost very valuable as it targets a weakness! However, they are by no means guaranteed to succeed in that pawn break and we will do our best to stop them. For that reason, I don't see the value in the outpost immediately. In the game, Noah was scared of the immediate Nc5 and I wanted to explain that this is not a worry whatsoever, but in hindsight it would've been even more instructive to specify that this is not a problem RIGHT NOW, but it can be in the future if e6 becomes a weakness as a result of their pawn break. Hopefully that clears up what I wanted to say, let me know if you'd like me to rewrite it in more precise terms since at the time of writing this it's midnight and it's been a long day 🤣 P.S. the capitalizing of words is simply to put emphasis, it's not meant to be aggressive hahah Thank you for the comment!
@ketonicm8504 13 күн бұрын
@@LionChess Just for the understanding, that would also mean that in case they occupy the outpost we would neglect the plan of pushing the c pawn for the break and exclusively expand and break on the queen side right?
@LionChess 13 күн бұрын
@@ketonicm8504 F pawn, but yes, exactly The plan would then be to pressure the outposted knight because it's more of a target than a strength There's going to be many removing-the-defender tactics on that knight. For example, there's a tactical pattern: Let's say they play Nc5 and we play Qb6 and they play something irrelevant. We have Nxd4 and when they recapture on d4 with anything and we can take on c5, winning a pawn

My approach for the puzzle would be: Black bishop takes white bishop - check. White rook has to take. Black Queen takes the white - check again. White King has to take the Black Queen. Black knight jumps in from b6 and forks white queen & king. Whatever white does, we can take their Queen. Black ends up with one knight against a knight, bishop and a rook - should be an easy win from there on.

How I'd try to solve the puzzle is by doing a castle with the king and rook, allowing the latter to move all the way to the right in order to support the fight. After that, I'd capture the enemy Knight with my Bishop from the left side of the board, which would make the enemy take it with their pawn. In the end, the left most row is mostly empty except for the enemy king and my rook with everything to the right secured by my queen and impossible to take. I'm still new to this, how did I do?
@LionChess 23 күн бұрын
That sounds good! :D Your solution is good, but allows White to think of some counterplay in the meantime since your plan takes some time. There's a more direct solution which is: 1. Bishop takes bishop, check 2. White has to respond with rook takes bishop 3. We continue with Queen takes rook, check! Queen sacrifice! 4. White has to respond with king takes queen 5. We play our knight to c4 which is double attacking the king and queen! 6. They move the king anywhere and we take their queen, winning material
