[@naveediqbal9450]

Very Good & interesting Lecture on pass pawn. Thanks Sir.

[@HangingPawns]

No problem Naveed. Glad to help!

[@NativeExplorer]

8:59 why take g4 ? Why not use the pawn at g5 and take white pawn at h4?

[@aura809]

if gxh4 then white goes gxh5 and still has a passed pawn and can promote

[@captainnautilus9578]

The passed pawn is a criminal, not a prisoner.

[@HenryMcCraken4]

The starting position it seems to me can be won by pawn pushing the h pawn to displace the bishop, then once it moves to play knight to e4, then whatever black does knight d6 wins the rook, as if it moves, then rook e8 nabs the queen

[@saidhamici5491]

Thanks sir good lecture

[@HangingPawns]

No problem Said:)

[@matiasjaque3300]

In the first example I think black could play Bd3+ instead of resingning and try to do something. However, after Bd3+ White could have played Kd2 and the black's king is on a checkmate net.

[@fredriklarsson1707]

in the first posistion, why is that d pawn good? it should be a weakness as its isolated with few pieces on the board

[@youngt2827]

Good shit

[@djsw5355]

i am starting chess : at 7:15 why don t take the pawn after b5 ?

[@miguelrodrigues4796]

b6? I thought the same

[@Heavyhelcio]

You have viewers all around the world, Hanging Pawns! Keep up the good work, I'm sure you will be able to become a master eventually if you keep improving at the game. If I can make a suggestion, you should do a series similar to John Bartholomew's "climbing the rating ladder", where you show us the plans and ideas of lower rated players (and high rated ones as well) live. Anyways, much love from Brazil! ps: do you plan on covering the Petrov Defense anytime soon? It's severely lacking in youtube for some reason

[@HangingPawns]

Thank you, first of all:) I appreciate the suggestions. I will consider making such a series. As for the Petrov, it's coming right after the Scandinavian so it should be no more than 10 days before it starts!

[@TG-to5nf]

Subbed.

[@HangingPawns]

Thanks Liam!

[@threshhold5531]

After knight to b6 , why can't we take the d6 pawn with rook or queen?

[@jallatinas5008]

I live it❤

[@andrewchoi2780]

Even if I have a passed pawn, I can’t successfully push it.
