WEBVTT 00:01.200 --> 00:06.870 Hi there in this election, are we going to see the so-called Staunton gambit, so this is named after 00:06.870 --> 00:08.630 the British player Helds Thornton. 00:09.390 --> 00:17.010 So after the fall, if you played for and they played the Dutch defense, you can actually play a gambit 00:17.010 --> 00:17.400 here. 00:17.640 --> 00:27.300 E4 So Staunton was responsible for the Staunton and Design, which we see nowadays, a nice blend of 00:27.300 --> 00:28.790 aesthetics and functionality. 00:29.610 --> 00:33.570 So I hope you have your own style and design piece at home. 00:34.740 --> 00:38.580 So we see FTC for the government here has accepted. 00:41.920 --> 00:43.090 We see no suffering. 00:45.820 --> 00:55.870 And now my wife thinks and here we don't we don't even need to be in a rush to play a move like Afri, 00:56.230 --> 01:01.030 this game, as an example, is Richard Reti against Matsuzawa. 01:01.480 --> 01:09.210 And we actually played Bishop G5 in this position of the Desex now Afri. 01:10.090 --> 01:15.640 So this is a common thing to kind of accelerate a little bit of development and open up not just the 01:15.640 --> 01:19.570 file, but you'll notice because of the four missing. 01:19.810 --> 01:22.930 OK, we've got a file, a similar file usually by here. 01:22.930 --> 01:24.880 Actually, Black hasn't got that phone either. 01:25.270 --> 01:26.410 So it's a shared file. 01:26.420 --> 01:27.640 It's a two way road. 01:28.690 --> 01:34.690 And in theory, you know, both sides could also use the diagonal black, having a pawn on g sex. 01:34.690 --> 01:38.790 It's more difficult to plan for black to light to be aggressive with the queen here. 01:39.220 --> 01:39.670 But why? 01:39.680 --> 01:45.640 It could be potentially aggressive with the queen later bouncing what he wants for potentially we see 01:45.640 --> 01:51.520 Bishop G7 Bishop defraying C five. 01:53.410 --> 02:00.940 Now, this might be a mistake already costing was better, for example, if one counseled D5, why it 02:00.940 --> 02:04.380 does have to move Queene one, you know, to get the queen to an aggressive square. 02:05.110 --> 02:06.940 And this should be about even. 02:06.940 --> 02:14.470 So there are parts of a missing form as much as it's not all about just technically as far as you look 02:14.470 --> 02:20.140 at that -- in terms of other lines, has it opened? 02:23.230 --> 02:33.730 So it's open the key diagonal as well as well as the F.R., so here it's about even anyway, so black, 02:33.730 --> 02:41.170 though, played C5 and Wyplosz D5 and now Queen Bee Sex Queen. 02:41.170 --> 02:50.860 These two offers the B2 Pawn Rokeby one and it seems you Black had something exceptionally clever. 02:50.860 --> 02:58.540 Heads playing so Max over a former world chess champion play something which he thought was perhaps 02:58.540 --> 03:02.030 crushing black actually played 1965. 03:02.830 --> 03:11.430 So the point is, if Rook takes B to this wasn't played, then Bishop takes C free. 03:11.440 --> 03:13.600 And that's kind of painful. 03:14.740 --> 03:16.390 The queen is pinned to the king, 03:19.600 --> 03:31.840 but White has something else in mind here when it spectacularly plays 1965, offering this drug, then 03:31.840 --> 03:33.150 offering another rock. 03:33.580 --> 03:38.800 This is the kind of thing that happens in the romantic era of chess, which is why it's very, very 03:38.800 --> 03:47.530 nice to check out the games of and of Anderson and Paul Morphy, because you see in those games dramatic 03:47.530 --> 03:53.260 investments being made, like to send this example to try and expose the opponents king. 03:54.160 --> 03:59.740 And here the king is stopped from castling by Bishop 67. 04:00.100 --> 04:01.620 So the king is more of a fixed target. 04:01.630 --> 04:05.550 Now, it's illegal to counsel for the offense track. 04:06.340 --> 04:16.660 So we see here DCX and our bishop takes these things, see, but now Bishop B5, which pins that noise 04:18.040 --> 04:25.600 on the sun and in fact, quite simply here, just snapped off the knight to weaken some of the defensive 04:25.600 --> 04:25.900 squares. 04:25.900 --> 04:33.070 97 beats C sexers played Queene to check King the eight. 04:33.850 --> 04:39.370 And now, believe it or not, there's actually a false checkmate you can actually force checkmate here. 04:39.760 --> 04:41.800 Guess what white plays had to force checkmate. 04:41.920 --> 04:43.510 If I give you five seconds pause video. 04:46.570 --> 04:47.080 OK. 04:49.340 --> 04:55.690 Bishop Kevin Chank, so checking all checks, check all the high priority Forese moves, Queenie's is 04:55.700 --> 04:59.750 Chamique Krush, 19 most Chamique. 05:00.350 --> 05:09.410 So yes, if you're looking for a system against the Dutch defense, the and government has got some 05:09.410 --> 05:10.440 substance to our life. 05:10.760 --> 05:17.960 I personally have played this on numerous occasions over the years with fantastic games quite often, 05:17.960 --> 05:23.420 you know, definitely a high win rate with this game even against Dutch defense specialists. 05:24.050 --> 05:28.970 The stronger you get tactically as well, the more you can leverage these kind of positions. 05:29.630 --> 05:33.740 As you can see, if you can work out the forcing move sequences, if you're king, if your opponents 05:33.740 --> 05:39.490 came, rather, is stuck in the center, then you're likely to find a way of making them essentially. 05:39.950 --> 05:42.080 So these gambits are really, really dangerous. 05:42.500 --> 05:48.170 They get more and more dangerous to more tactically strong you are to try and make sure you can solve 05:48.170 --> 05:54.320 all the middle game section that's thrown at you, all those example tactics on how they work. 05:54.650 --> 06:01.220 And then the gambits will really be a great complementary to you actually get really, really active 06:01.220 --> 06:01.850 pieces. 06:02.420 --> 06:08.190 And sometimes you can, even if the king's opponent is stuck in the center here, this is quite an amazing 06:08.190 --> 06:08.780 conception. 06:09.410 --> 06:10.890 The queen stranded for a moment. 06:11.030 --> 06:12.110 It's kind of irrelevant. 06:12.650 --> 06:17.960 And in a way, you know, black hasn't got many pieces that aren't so king safety is a major, major 06:19.190 --> 06:20.810 issue in this position. 06:23.130 --> 06:31.200 So we see after the sex, the sex, yeah, the spinning of the night, it's just it just looks as though 06:32.610 --> 06:36.300 there's huge trouble in this position. 06:36.510 --> 06:39.810 Generally, it's a lot of trouble for the king. 06:40.140 --> 06:40.770 Indeed. 06:42.780 --> 06:50.040 So try and Bishop, these seven I mean, blang wasn't an amateur or anything. 06:50.040 --> 06:52.560 Black was Massawa, you know, former world chess champion. 06:52.800 --> 06:55.310 He thought this was the strongest move. 06:55.980 --> 07:05.130 So and then, you know, taking on CSX and check here means, you know, black is in huge, huge trouble. 07:08.920 --> 07:16.800 So King, the bishop C7 checking this in the sky and Queen asks Chemie, so very, very nice game how 07:16.870 --> 07:18.470 you enjoyed that game example. 07:19.690 --> 07:25.960 And yes, I've definitely I've definitely had a lot of fun with this stones and commit myself before 07:26.290 --> 07:27.130 it's worth a punt. 07:27.130 --> 07:28.590 It has got some substance to it. 07:29.200 --> 07:31.210 OK, and so much.
