13:09 Kg6 is not forced, a better move would be d5, covering some checks and mate ideas, prolonging the game. Try to play that variation against stockfish, it’s pretty fun!

Thank you for the comment, I will actually pin this comment so more people can see this defensive idea! :D

[@crazycanuckerrant]

Looks forced. What am I missing? The bishop takes the d5 pawn and force is back on.

[@LionChess]

@@crazycanuckerrant sacrificing the pawn on d5 allows the c8 bishop to protect the f5 square so that Qf5+ isn't a possibility on the next move. White's position is still amazing, but not as good as if it would be if Black doesn't play d5 😄

New sub. Great straightforward, valuable teaching here. I watch lots of vids and this is gold as it so precise. And short making it easy to remember.

@@LionChess Yes I started calculating the forcing moves first like you said no matter how bad they look at first 😀It works great!

Nice video!

Thank you! Hope it was useful! 🔥

[@crazyboysince1998]

That whole line after king e7 happened in my game yesterday but id never played that to mate before and i felt like a genius when i calculated it to h4 and mate

[@crazyboysince1998]

Most players just lose the rook instead of putting their king on h6 hahaha

[@LionChess]

@@crazyboysince1998 Wow hahah that's amazing! :D

Great concise info. What about the Rousseau Gambit for black (1. e4, e5 2. Nf3, Nc6 3. Bc4, f5)for black? It's a great opening against players below ELO 2000. The exception to the rule! (Thank Remote chess academy)

[@LionChess]

A very well respected gambit, White really needs to know their stuff to counter that one! There are many other openings where moving the F pawn is fine, we're just saying here that it makes your game more difficult and unintuitive so don't do it without a reason! P.S. As a Dutch player (1. d4 f5) at the level of 2200 FIDE and 2400 online, I can confidently say that it's completely okay as long as you're aware of the weakness of the diagonal to your king. :D

[@luutzennijdam7213]

@@LionChess I never tried the Dutch opening (Euwe?). But Rousseou is definitely fun! kzbin.info/www/bejne/j2eQg4uFnZpjldk .

@@LionChess Now that is a mannerism that I don't understand. I guess it comes from the old days when our Mothers told us, "If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all." Now he was a bit mean to you, and you answer as if he praised you. I was not taught what to say if somebody says something mean to me, (but I won't pretend I am in another conversation.), so let me be your shadow for you on this one. :) "Hey ODonnell! Yea, I am talking to you!! Get the crap out of your ears and get a hair cut!!" Oh yea, I know it. You are smiling. Feels good huh? :)

@@EarthSurferUSA all I remember is putting that phrase into Google Translate and it was something nice 😂
