Thanks. This was very helpful. But you failed to mention a key trap! After 1.g4 d5 2.Bg2 Bxg4 3.c4 c6 4.Qb3 e6 5.cxd5, Black must play the counterintutive 5...exd5!, violating the maxim about capturing toward the center, since 5...cxd5?? 6.Qa4+ wins the bishop. ChessBase Online shows that a LOT of people fall into this trap. In this move order, 18 people played the correct 5...exd5!, while 7 (i.e 28%) blundered with 5...cxd5??. Another 31 blundered away their bishop by a different move order, I assume 4.cxd5 cxd5 first, and then 5.Qb3 e6?? In this case, they may think they're being clever, since 5.Qb3 Nf6! would allow 6.Qxb7 Nbd7 7.Bxd5. In fact 7.Bxd5?? would be a blunder because of 7...Rb8! 8.Qc6?? (defending the bishop) Rc8 and wins.

Stockfish plays g4. So, it means the first opening move really doesn't matter. It is the response to your opponent's move that matters.

Well, the Grob is like Scholars Mate. An opening that's intended to get an advantage based on the the opponent not knowing how to play against it. For a while Nakamura was playing 1. P-K4 P-K4 2. Q-R5 as a kind of handicap to show he could still outplay certain people who didn't fall for the trap. With the Grob, after 1. P-KN4 P-Q4 2. B-N2 BxP 3. P-QB4 P-QB3 4. Q-N3, Black is supposed to freak out over the possibility of QxP, and play something awful, like P-QN3. The problem is it's hard for Black to freak out sufficiently to wreck his game. After 4... Q-N3, Black is still a bit better. He's even slightly better after 4... PxP and B-B1. At least with the Scholar's Mate White wins if Black falls for it.

Gm teachers often say to their students, keep the pawns tension! Now I often think that the "passive" Queen exchange is good attacking and defensive strategy; The blunder is huge because activate Nf8 and lose Bishop pair; of course Gukesh isn't crazy, if u evaluate the position statically black pawns formation aweful
@ErikKislikChessSuccess Ай бұрын
Hey Luca, thanks for the comment. Often times keeping the pawn tension is a good way to make your opponent nervous, disoriented, and provoke errors. A "passive" queen exchange will often improve your pieces or your pawn structure, while not improving the opponent's; you get to benefit while they don't. The problem with Qxf5 as a whole is that the three isolated pawns on the kingside are not weak because there is not enough force to attack them and win them with. Something is only weak if it can be exploited. Many entire openings are based on the idea of having three isolated pawns on the kingside, defending them with your king, and drawing easily at the IM/GM level. It is only a problem with more pieces on the board that could exploit the pawns, like if this occurred in the opening or middlegame. Gukesh has had a tendency to overevaluate a lot of the positions he has gotten with White in this match. He needs to keep his objectivity for the final 5 games.
@luca4xxx Ай бұрын
@@ErikKislikChessSuccess I saw in Game 2 and this one, he made bad use of bishop pair. Gukesh will obviously improve a lot in his positional play in the years to come if he change his style. Other GMs would have chosen 11.Nxc4 saving a tempo without h3...after Nbd7 the idea is a4 stopping b5 or d6,Bf4,Ne3,h4 plan; since Black can't play Nc6 after Nbd7; Very few inaccuracies if we consider that in all games Ding decides to opt for strange positioning of the pieces and Gukesh for alternative positional maneuvers.
@luca4xxx Ай бұрын
Bc5 is easy to play, but I only consider Qxh7 trick, wow Rf3 and Qf1, the bishop pair save the game, and with a weaker player White has pracical winning chances, crazy stuff! Open f file was almost a blunder for Ding, that's why Bxe6! A "Petrosian move" King safety first !

In his defense, he got straight into Ding's poor metagame strategy within 15 seconds of the video, so he really didn't bury the lede. For what it's worth, Kislik doesn't use any of the annoying language Nakamura does and actually goes deeper in the analysis.

I just resigned a game I THOUGHT I lost my knight in. *1. g4 d5 2. Bg2 e5 3. c3 Nc6 4. Qb3 Be6 5. Qxb7 Na5 6. Qb5+* not seeing after 6...c6, the knight is defended by my queen when i was actually UP half a pawn because i got rattled by white's initiative. now to see if this is a gambit lovers kind of line. at my 1700 level, 2...Bg4 has bad results. after 3.c4, white scores 57:40 in 1 million 1600-2000 rated games.2...c6 is the strongest reply for amateurs at 47:50 in 527k games and is the ONLY line black has an edge in. 2...e5 scores a little better than your line too at my level. I THOUGHT claiming the center was the correct book move.

An interesting gambit vs. The Grob goes 1. g4 d5 2. Bg2 Bxg4 3. c4 dxc4 4. Bxb7 Nd7 5. Bxa8 Qxa8 6. f3 e5 7. d4 -/+ The method I prefer is 1. g4 d5 2. Bg2 e5 3. h3 Nc6 4. d3 Be6 Black will castle long and play h5 and f6 in some order. Usually, the knight goes to g6 via e7. Black is better.

I don't get this video. I got the point about looking at unprotected pieces immediately, but then you go through position after position to drill through how to do this when 2-3 examples would suffice. And the two examples I looked at as puzzles had nothing to do with unprotected pieces at all, just finding forcing winning moves like Qd8+!! I guess the vid is geared at 1000 rated USCF players but even then wouldn't they benefit from real examples and your showing how this principle works?

You should always take a free rook in a position like this unless you are 100% convinced it is perpetual check. The onus is on Black to prove something, and White's king had a lot of room to run. A calculation of less than 7 moves to get out of check and hide behind your rook should not be hard for a master level player when you're up a rook with a new queen coming
