Take pirc defence full opening plans and startegy ….Igor sir It will helpful for us….
Rook e2 wins
Magnificent game.
Can you teach us anything about the Giouco Pianissimo from white's point of view ?
Rook can almost move anywhere except on the e file except E8,3,or x1
What a great game. It amazes me how one move change can drastically improve your opening. Thanks π
Re2!! and if White takes the Rook Rxe2, then Qxc3. If Qxf6, then Rxe1#
Warning, spoiler here:
In 11:05 the move…
Re2 !!!!!!!!!
My god!!! It's crazy!!!!!
Thank you for this excellent lesson. Solutions to puzzle:
Good solutions: 1) … Re2, 2. RxR QxQ (black wins Queen vs white wins rook)
2) … Re2, 2. QxQ, RxR +, 3. Kh2 g7xQ (black wins Queen and Rook vs white wins Queen)
3) … Re2, 2. Qe3, RxQ , 3. RxR (black wins Queen vs white wins rook)
not as good solution
4) … Re2, 2. Qa1, QxQ, 3. RxQ Rxc7 (black wins Queen vs white wins rook)

Puzzle: Re2 is the winning move!
1. If Rxe2, then Qxc3 wins the queen against the rook.
2. If Qxf6, then Rxe1+ Kh2 gxf6 wins the queen and rook against the queen.
3. If Qa1 trying to support the back rank, then Qxf2+ Kh1 or Kh2 Qxg2#.
Thank you ππ
I don't find the best solution. I think the best move is D5he want. To safe his queen if queen goes D2 we simply captur rook queen capture rook and the position is equal.
Good game. Thanks. π
Wow, the attack is really crazy!
Igor… Where is the checkmate at 8:23 !?
This site is the best chess advisory site by far.
Sometimes within an hour I get 100+ elo. Next time when I play it comes back to the previous level. π
After white plays Qe8 check, black has Kh-f8 blocking. After white plays Ke-f7 check, black can move King to H7. So the game is not really over.
Nice video
Contents are very good,but try talking less you talk too much.
I think Re2 not such a great idea… We need to kick off the black queen from dark squares… I think d4 could do the trick… Qc4+ could be only thing white could do… so simply we just move our king to dark squares like f8 or h8… even if he plays & exchange rooks, we could have an equal endgame
Great
That's all well and good, but a very complicated trap, most games when you try something like this the opponent rarely makes the moves needed to implement the strategy, leaving you out of position
d5 to d4?
Your videos are alowing me to improve so much , thank you for that awesome work
Thank you for all your help. I am a novice but you explain concepts. I am older and not able to memorize complicated traps and such. But your overall attacking strategy has really helped me a lot. I just won my first game against a rated player. Even when I made a blunder I kept up the attack when before I would resign. I am focusing more on my plan of action rather than being passive. Thanks again!
What if he does this what if instead of moving his knight on c6 what if the other knight on f6 takes your pawn on e4
This was simply beautiful
hi. u r best but your videos are always too long.
Re7
Rook to e2 is the best
ΠΡΠ°Π²ΠΎΠΎ π ))
Rook to e2
@11:00 d4, Qa1 Qf4, f3 Rg5, g4 Qxf3, Qd1 Qxh3, Qe2 Rxg4+, Ke1 Qh1+, Ke2 Re5+, Kg4 Qh5, Qe8+ Kh7, Re6 Qg5+, Kh2 Re2+, Kh1 Qg2#

Game is amazing ,but opening is doubtful.

My temporary aim to be better in chess is to see all your videos /probably without attending your free courses in the chess – for me it would be another expenditure of time/. How many videos have you produced? Thank you for your valuable work.
Very helpful
Puzzle Re2..
Brilliant – I will DEFINITELY be using this from now on!!
4:46 I wouldn't play ng6. Nf5 was the way to go attacking this annoying pawn twice by the two knights and there would be no way that white could defend it.
Wow
To me You are the best teacher. Many
thanks.
Rook e2
