Thanks for reviewing this very interesting game! Instead of the winning move Rf4 you proposed at 13:05 in the video, Qxf7+, Kxf7, d8Q (the bishop cannot take the queen because it is pinned!) caught my eye. Unfortunately, black has the saving move Qc6+, which I believe leads to a draw even though white is the exchange and 1 pawn up. However, had white's king been on h3 instead of g2, the same sequence would have been winning!!

No, it doesn't. This guy interrupts himself constantly, and without warning, to talk about alternate moves. His accent makes it even more annoying; especially every time he says a word with a "u" or a "w" in it. To top it all off, he always stops his own commentary halfway through to offer a puzzle for his viewers to solve, and then pats on the back the ones who bothered to get it right. It's incredibly patronizing and annoying. If I watch chess content, then I want to watch the game play out, because this is a KZbin video, not an online lecture from Oxford University.

13:16 what if queen captures knight and when the king captures, the pawn can be promoted to a queen and the bishop cannot capture it becoz its pinned

[@kamiltylus]

i think black would play b2 and white is only up the exchange which is not good enough

[@tomgerrits2348]

It doesn't work cause it won't be promoted with check

[@rockisrealmusic5338]

It doesnt come with the check so, black queen would take the chance to give a check from c6. And if the white king moves to h3, then black and white will go on a checking spree, and eventually end in a draw with threefold repetition. Instead king to h3. White will have to block with Qd5 and after black takes the queen, its winning for black. It'll promote its 2 past pawns.

The prevalence of English is not solely because of the reach of the British Empire, followed by the dominance of America. It is also because English has incredibly simple grammar (at a basic level), with very few verbs, prepositions, and affixes that are essential to speaking the language and being understood.
