Long Grind to FM - No Man's Land

[@datboi_gee]

just a wild guess here but the difference between moving the knights at 10:47 is that the latter opens up the g pawn to add to the defense, potentially trading into the center.

LIke to support the Knight with a move like g4?

[@ChessLateBloomer]

Wait you said trade in the center, do you mean g3 then f4? EDIT: I cover that square too much though

[@datboi_gee]

@@ChessLateBloomer I wouldn't expect f4, rather just support the knight is all. Stockfish is only evaluating them at about half a point difference and still considering the game about even in both scenarios. There could be something else I'm not seeing, but if I were white in that scenario I definitely don't dislike the simple g4 to add a second defense to my forward knight.

[@ChessLateBloomer]

@@datboi_gee With g4, King safety is affected, that's why I'm having trouble understanding the nuance between the 2 knight moves. One day, when I'm stronger, I might understand it and even come back to this video.
