Just an FYI, in the 3rd game black doesn't want to exchange off his dark squared bishop for the knight on c3 and double isolated pawns, because white's pawns all typically end up on light squares in the Tiamanov and the light squared bishop can be difficult to activate.Therefore, the quick attack white can muster up on the dark squares easily outweighs the benefit of the isolated pawns since that advantage won't be recognized until much later in the game.

I don't agree because he does mistakes that I don't do... and doesn't see moves that I see.. and my blitz rating 1393 (on chess.com) my rating moves between 1350-1500 :/ ...wow I just noticed my tactics rating went up high... used to be around 1450-1500 too .. now its 1633:D or wait... I changed my mind... I agree with you... maybe I belong to 2000 too :) (like 20-25 years ago, I played a lot against my friend we were about equal, we were about same level, he was a bit better... he actually had a fide rating around 1850 but recently I improved)... somehow on chess.com I cant pass the 1600 in 3-5minute game rating:D (I had 1600 but I didnt keep it long)

10:46 What, if Kd1? Ok Qxg4+, but then Kd2 and is safe. Another Queen not checking move causing c4 and white have more possibilities to defend.

can someone explain why black wouldn't play his pawn to E2 at 34:47? it seems like that move would attack the rook and since it's supported by the bishop, black'll either trade bishop for rook, or white takes with knight and black takes with bishop and threatens rook?
@MKWiiLuke4TW
@MKWiiLuke4TW 7 жыл бұрын
i was saying instead of blacks d3 move, it forces the take with knight unless you want to lose pawn and then bishop is safe unless he wants to trade bishop for rook

You just made me stare at the board for way too long. In general he would want to advance the D pawn because it could eventually advance to a light square on the 1st rank which could be covered by the bishop. That being said, I've calculated out a few scenarios and Pe2 comes out pretty well on top each time.

First game: Isn't that a bit like the pot calling the Kettle black? Its not as if Mike has castled. Shouldnt both lose then, by the logic of the description? Game two: What?Sacrifice a exchange and a pawn to get behind in development, because the oponent cant castle, while Mike actually got the same problem... Ohh... maan... This is way to deep for me, starting to get a headache.
