[@pizzashark7067]

I like to attack and develop at the same time, which is why I always open with pawn to h3. Always.

[@michaelwright9432]

Pizza Shark How does Ph3 help you develop and attack?

[@pizzashark7067]

Twas a joke, my friend.

[@kelp017]

Pizza Shark Better would be 1.h4 e5 2.Rh3 d5 3. g4 Nc6 4.Re3 Ne7 5. Bg2.

Hahahhahah

[@TheDeathstriker123]

for a long time I thought he's saying "If black does this , there is discontinuation" . That moment when I realised he meant this continuation :O

[@saltyslappage8752]

Check. Mate.

[@MatoJelic]

Thank you for your comment. Feel free to correct me every time if there is a mistake.

[@gokor356]

My favorite line "white is lost"

[@tailsu1]

Check. Mate.

"It is black to play. And to play AQUILA MOVE."

[@derbadjali7634]

It's not aquila move it's a killer move

[@Kleshumara]

Delightful game choice, as always. I can often find the 'killer move' when I'm told to look for it; but looking at a position and realizing there is a winning move there without being prompted to find it, now that's the real thing.

[@TheForeman847]

I totally agree with you. I would never see the "killer move" when I'm actually playing.

[@HipHopAn0n]

I love the ominous tone you use when you announce resignation!!

[@pcsecuritychannel]

Depends on who's playing. If you are Tal....

[@Ale21forro]

Thanks for share this video Mato! I'm learning too much with your CHESS's chanel. Sorry for bad english, i'm brazilian

[@yedidsion]

MATO DEAREST; You see, by your help, now we are improving our English too! Love your BLACK games. Tkank you, as always.

[@Kleshumara]

I appreciate that, actually. English is my second language, and precise use of punctuation marks continues to be a challenge!

[@Donkking8]

How can you see so many moves ahead! I feel like I'm blind when I play chess :,(

[@nikhilwardrobe]

+Majin Veta The insight comes after many games of practice and the will to take the opponent king !

[@GoldinDr]

+englishmanspeaks Yes, but that's not what makes his videos so enjoyable. Any fool can use an engine. Mato picks particularly instructive games to discuss (you can't discuss brilliant moves if there aren't any), and then has a knack of reducing the game to one or two crucial moments. If he went through EVERY possible variation, the videos would be thorough but unwatchable.

[@vitakyo982]

Just play the right move at every move ...

[@moonblink]

well, Mato, neither side castled. So I don't think this is a clear example of Development vs Attacking. (love your videos though, thx)

[@raviravi5342]

moonblink thought the same too.

[@Aiden057]

Mato, great video as always. I just wanted to note that there seems to be some background noise in the sound -- maybe a fan or air conditioner is on the background? It's not really a big problem but I just wanted to make mention of it in case you had not noticed. Thanks again for all the great videos you do.

[@borispax955]

Super thank U my dear Friend Mato! bop

[@modgenesis3868]

at 3:24 taking pawn on e5 with bishop is a good move when black recaptures the bishop you recapture with the queen and now it's check forking knight and rook

[@curvalsade4903]

Same here. I love chess, the killer move usually implies rupture, a bold move... But to find it in your own chess match,, that is quite difficult. I'm an amateur chess player, i wish i had more time to devote to chess, for me the best game ever invented.

[@marklyles3335]

Mato, I saw the bishop move!! I AM improving thanks to you!!!!

[@MatoJelic]

I am glad to hear that. Stay safe

[@radioarno]

Another great video Mato. The way you show tactical variations is teaching me to look longer, follow continuations for more moves; you're teaching me what doing chess puzzles didn't. Its fantastic to learn tactics from you, in the context of these fantastic games. Thank you so much.

[@v.gopalakrishnan350]

Nice one!

[@andreashoppe1969]

Just one stupid question… If at 4:55 Queen took rook on A8 instead what would be the right continuation? I'd suggest Qxb4 check and if Ke2, Bd2-b4 checkmate, and if instead of Ke2, Kd1, then Ba4 check, Kc1, Qxc5 check, Kb2, Qc2 Check, Ka3, Qb3 checkmate? I know it might be totally rubish and I might be totally blind but it's worth a try I thought haha

[@joakobolso18]

bringing that queen to the center is a tabu lol

[@debeastdueeast]

I'm glad I didn't appear arrogant because I just want to help people. Glad I did in this instance.

[@MatoJelic]

Thank you

[@MatoJelic]

Thanks

[@618361]

I'm pretty sure it's because the white queen must guard the critical b4 square. Otherwise its mate in 3 by the queen, knight, and the light-squared bishop. Specifically, after Qxa8 comes ...Qxb4+. If white plays Ke2 then ...Bb5+, Kd1 Qb1#. If white plays Kd1 then ...Qb1+, Ke2 Bb5#.

[@mohammadkamalhossain3771]

[@gigas81]

That Benoni. A strange name but awesome opening for Black.

[@seymur312]

Hi Mato! Can you make videos for beginners, explaining different openings and defences against these openings. Thanks!

[@yggdrasil9039]

Wow! At 6:27 black does exactly the maneuverer that White should have done at 3:09. B sac followed by Q takes pawn.

[@Narafairyy]

Nice game ,Mato 😊

[@cameronmarler6223]

Check... Maaate

[@anguschen5779]

Black played a move... and white resigned. Luv it!

[@gwenshirebros4883]

I like how Mato doesn't clickbait

[@khayman9574]

What is better? Neither, lol. Activity would be my choice; I think it's the perfect combination of development and attack. You could also refer to it as "aggressive development", if you wish. But, hey, what do I know? lol. Thanks for the video

[@kepari1]

hi, sometimes the ply is not so delicious ! but the way you explain and comment , it becomes interesting . good job . felicitation.

[@marklyles3335]

Hey Mato, Please look at Qxb4 as the Killer Move. What do you think?? Thanks.

[@yggdrasil9039]

Also there is at 3:09 after Q x R on a1 the opportunity for a B sac on e5, pxB then Qxp on e5 forking the K and the R on h8, and capturing the R on the next move.

[@miklas-dj9kd]

+ygg drasil That's what I woulda played too.

[@andreashoppe1969]

For some reason Ivanchuck appears in almost every game haha :) (King to e1 check) :)

[@raviravi5342]

Andreas Hoppe lol, thought about Ivanchuck too.

[@Enigmaprince]

that is well spottet of the weakness of the white

[@sanan22]

can you add games where a side is punished for making wrong moves in the opening? thanks alot for the videos

[@thismanee]

mato, why not taking rook at 4:56 ??, it's not protected

[@MunchyHam]

Sorry if I missed something but can't the queen just grab the rook and still be up a point or two?

[@curaticac5391]

Well, where is China? Didn't hear the question ... .

[@finnohagan4799]

6:18 wow, for once I actually found the "killer move"

[@thesuomifinland1]

at 6:00 what if queen takes pawn on b4, and after queen takes queen, rook takes bishop on a1?

[@owenwu7995]

Hi this is Mato in this video I will show you very beatiful chess game

[@gigas81]

Thats what I said, Benoni.

[@kenbrown438]

My question is : since the beginning of chess , has every possible game of chess been played !!!!???? How many possible games of chess are there !!!!???? Another question is : how have the rules of chess changed over time !!!!????

[@sharmila21ster]

White will get mated in next few moves if Qxa8. For starters Black will go Qxb4 check.. rest is a puzzle for you. Enjoy solving..:-)

[@debeastdueeast]

I don't think I was being rude. I just did it so he/she would know the semicolon's application; this way, he/she can avoid any embarrassment in the unlikely situation where semicolon knowledge is vital (I know it's hardly ever vital, but whatever).

[@whakjob980]

At 4:00 why not just capture the rook on a8?

[@rae8323]

+siquator White would be slaughtered. Qb4 and everything is open for black. When king moves to d1 (everything else leads to guaranteed checkmate as far as I can see), knight to e2 and eventually bishop to e3. All blacks major pieces would be attacking king in the open, with white queen which could as well be off the board. And all this when considering that white already would win rook with no repercussions if it would just take the damn queen.

[@johnlion44]

+Rae Nd2

[@Mr100JUMPS]

Qxa8 Qxb4+ if Ke2 Qxb2+ Kd3 Qc3+ Ke2 Qc2+ Ke1 Qc1+ Ke2 Nc3+ Kd3 Bb5# If after Qxb4+ Kd1 Qxb2 with the threat of Nxf2 Qxf2+ Qb1# and lets say Bc4 Qb1# Lets say Bd3 Then Nxf2+ Kd1 Nxd3+ Kd1 Nf2+ and we can stop here.Anyway White wont play Qxa8.Instead cxb6 is winning.

[@marklyles3335]

Mato, please look at QxB4--I think that wins too. Any thoughts anybody else??

[@dubstepforce3804]

Mato when did you start playing chess? :)

[@Guillermo19548]

I always find the kila move but not the winner move.

[@Coffee3553]

Check. Mate.

[@SethGlover]

Mato!

[@raducora7159]

At 4:58, why not pawn takes pawn + check instead of pawn takes qween, and then after queen or knight takes pawn, qween takes rook and white is winning?

[@Ulven89]

after that continuation white will get mated after Qxb4

[@hestia165]

7:08 what if Nd2?

[@vitakyo982]

5:50 You didn't say : Mmmmmmm after check mate ....

[@JRS030]

I wonder at 1:47 what if knight takes pawn on e5. Pawn takes than queen takes queen king recaptures and pawn on b4 takes the knight. Bishops recapures and white is better... Sorry need to work on notation -

[@andrejbugarinovic9877]

Watch the video to the end and you will see why.

[@Nubian42]

Why is black better at 7:06?

[@debeastdueeast]

Think about a person who wouldn't necessarily get the sentence's meaning. I was just giving a small 'correction' and I'm sorry if I was perceived as rude.

[@Michet]

Atalik reis

[@yb_bakery]

5:23 why can’t queen take on A8? :/

[@yb_bakery]

Lol nvm Mato just answered my question. It’s a forced mate

[@MunchyHam]

Nvm I figured it out :)

[@GoxKii]

8:08 Queen takes Bishop....... Check...... Mate

[@debeastdueeast]

Sorry to be pedantic, but I just wanted to say that the semicolon you used should replace 'but'; the semicolon acts as a conjunction. Sorry, but I'm an English teacher and I can't help but to 'correct' persons.

[@jayjee135]

How the hell do people analyze this stuff?

[@Rouhunaattori]

[@mcpartridgeboy]

who cares as long as you know what is meant, what more do you need ?

[@deldri]

6:40 why Not Taking the Bishop with the rook. Queen has To recap. And After that Queen deliver mate

[@Kraftyfive5]

@4:57 why can't queen just take rook???

[@thismanee]

sorry i didn't see the entire video, i just paused on that part

[@Dorumin]

MatoJelicASMR

[@bonafide1214]

Why can't the king just castle at 6:30

[@HeyKevinYT]

That would be a check, mate!

[@yosublim3]

Second!

[@gangangaguinga10]

First!

[@NikD7]

what min? to much moves...

[@JThrashYT]

chess AND.... american football. :)

[@Entropy03021990]

poor continuation the one explained.. the worst move playable for both sides.. the best move would be Bishop takes pawn in E5, if pawn takes bishop queen takes pawn checking king and winning a rook.. So black cant play queen there, must defend in some way, and also if your move with queen with white pieces was right, black should have stopped the check with queen c6 changing the queens

[@roumi123]

and where i china?

[@gregorydahlberg6284]

hahaha. I thought I'd scroll down and see if that was taken... didn't have to scroll far!

[@mcpartridgeboy]

you can help people by minding your own business and stop being so rude to people.
