Hallo Felix. Freue mich auf deine Kommentare und die Partieanalyse. Gruess aus der Schweiz, Stefan

[@febloh]

Danke Stefan! 😄

[@ferenclangheinrich4603]

Rf3 simply to attack blacks a3-pawn and after...Nc4 Qf1 to double on f-file threating Rf8 as you show. after Bc5 black is not able to castle. Thanks for your Video 😊

[@febloh]

You're totally right! 👍

[@davidc5191]

"doesn't look logical to castle into the attack" 10:15 that's because computers are notoriously cold-blooded defenders.

[@febloh]

Absolutely!

Very intriguing game today, Ding winning was a surprise but a welcome one! Happy we got your insight here as it was really valuable. At 7:44, I don't know why but I liked QC2 rather than QE2, trying to prepare RE1, but it probably would have made the game fall quicker. Keep up the great work Felix ❤

[@febloh]

Qc2 is very logical too, since the pawn on c3 would have been protected! Thanks!! I appreciate it!!
