WEBVTT 00:00.960 --> 00:01.530 Hi there. 00:01.830 --> 00:07.410 Here is a very interesting weakness of the last movie example, we've got to be stepping carefully in 00:07.410 --> 00:15.060 this example, because if we move the night, do we actually create weakness of the last move or look 00:15.060 --> 00:17.130 at the effects on the whole position? 00:17.520 --> 00:22.860 The effects on the whole position actually spell out a major weakness of the last vote, because we're 00:22.860 --> 00:25.950 actually liberating the liberation of facts on all the pieces. 00:25.950 --> 00:28.810 We're actually liberating the queen, you know. 00:28.840 --> 00:36.630 So actually, if we dared move tonight in this situation, look at the effects of liberation, on effects 00:36.630 --> 00:37.560 on the whole board. 00:37.560 --> 00:41.280 We've actually labeled the opponent the plague queen, the one shammi. 00:41.790 --> 00:42.510 So that's a clue. 00:42.510 --> 00:44.550 It's not to do with five. 00:45.120 --> 00:51.900 But, you know, we can actually use the principle of weakness of a we've been a common class here to 00:51.900 --> 00:55.920 try and get the opponent to fatally weaken their position. 00:56.580 --> 01:04.350 Believe it or not, I wonder if you can see how and this is a possession, which actually I have shown 01:04.350 --> 01:09.780 since, and it is potentially frustrating to find the killer move because it looks as though there's 01:09.780 --> 01:12.380 actually a number of checks to factor in. 01:12.630 --> 01:15.720 OK, so I've ruled out for you, it's definitely not a night move. 01:16.110 --> 01:19.470 So we start looking, try to prioritise those, forcing those checkable checks. 01:20.040 --> 01:26.400 But, you know, the bishop is guarding 87 and the queen is guarding our fate. 01:26.400 --> 01:28.650 So, you know, this is a little bit frustration already. 01:28.650 --> 01:34.320 We can't play Rook takes it does nothing the bishop would take and the queen's not hitting the rock. 01:34.950 --> 01:37.140 So what is this position all about? 01:37.140 --> 01:41.010 How can we actually use the process of calculation? 01:42.180 --> 01:46.170 And so shackle checks Chacal captures Chickamauga like France. 01:46.260 --> 01:55.990 So I like to give two examples to myself when I talk about major France and that's the main one or main. 01:56.010 --> 02:03.060 So if you forget the main one or two, the first of the time control and they miss that frat's, you're 02:03.060 --> 02:04.800 going to checkmate them in one or two. 02:05.070 --> 02:06.540 So they're very, very handy. 02:06.540 --> 02:07.830 Even from that perspective. 02:07.830 --> 02:16.410 If the is actually missed, can we actually do a move which is a kind of threat of a May one or may 02:16.410 --> 02:18.240 in to her Warsaw move? 02:18.240 --> 02:18.390 Would. 02:21.480 --> 02:26.910 If you look at this position and you might find it, you might find that. 02:38.180 --> 02:38.780 OK. 02:43.000 --> 02:49.720 Yeah, I mean, there are there are tempting moves in this position for sure. 02:51.340 --> 02:57.590 But actually, and you might think, well, moving the rock anywhere threatens Queen G7, if that's 02:57.590 --> 02:58.430 the primary one. 02:58.780 --> 02:59.560 Yeah, that's true. 02:59.560 --> 03:00.700 But this is not the move. 03:00.710 --> 03:08.710 It threatens a May one, but it's not actually the move, which is, you know, the most crushing. 03:09.550 --> 03:15.670 And in fact, black could just take that rock out and extinguish that made France. 03:17.020 --> 03:18.720 So that's not the move. 03:19.000 --> 03:24.640 And here, you know, blacks got other options to defend against the maiffret. 03:27.040 --> 03:29.140 There's a threat of queing, G7 checkmate. 03:29.150 --> 03:29.710 Sure. 03:30.160 --> 03:31.690 But this is also not the move. 03:31.690 --> 03:32.530 Roquet seven. 03:36.790 --> 03:37.240 So. 03:42.190 --> 03:43.240 In this position. 03:46.070 --> 03:48.980 You know, black does have some options. 03:52.280 --> 03:55.040 So what what option could black have, for example? 03:59.910 --> 04:09.340 I mean, here is one that could potentially rotate and affect our bishop can't take that. 04:09.570 --> 04:10.830 This is just one example. 04:11.100 --> 04:17.210 If our bishop took then queen's age sex, you know, we've got a pin bishop as well. 04:17.220 --> 04:20.550 So it seems this is kind of a recipe for frustration. 04:21.000 --> 04:31.140 But there is actually another friend of mine in one or two, which is a bit outrageous looking as well. 04:31.140 --> 04:37.980 But it really is crushing and it gives us access to the so-called, you know, double check, which 04:37.980 --> 04:40.770 really severely limits the opponents replies. 04:41.070 --> 04:44.100 And that move is queen of sex. 04:44.490 --> 04:46.710 So we're actually threatening a double check. 04:47.910 --> 04:48.690 And mate. 04:48.900 --> 04:51.300 Yeah, so we've got that. 04:51.300 --> 04:57.480 Kokomo's quite as well as we're forgetting that there's actually very little that can do her without 04:57.480 --> 04:58.720 incurring a fatal weakness. 04:58.770 --> 04:59.580 The last move. 05:02.970 --> 05:09.490 So if Rook takes have sex, it neglects that move, creates a witness and loss within the G8. 05:09.900 --> 05:12.110 So we've got that killer common square G8. 05:12.840 --> 05:13.790 So we just play Ruchi. 05:13.820 --> 05:17.020 I mean, there's really no defense to queen of sex. 05:17.040 --> 05:20.190 It's a tricky one, which I've shown, you know, many students. 05:20.550 --> 05:22.410 And, yeah, it's it's a shocker. 05:22.560 --> 05:25.610 But, you know, it's absolutely devastating. 05:27.240 --> 05:27.570 Yeah. 05:27.570 --> 05:28.620 So sometimes. 05:28.950 --> 05:30.750 Yeah, those those major frat's. 05:31.740 --> 05:36.120 I like to have the example of a friend of mine, one or two people within that as well, if you can 05:36.120 --> 05:42.050 get this notion of the double check that's even more lethal rather than the rook being over over there, 05:42.060 --> 05:43.950 we weren't actually threatening a double check. 05:43.980 --> 05:45.810 Well, we when we moved the rook. 05:46.170 --> 05:48.090 So, yeah, there are tricks of the trade. 05:48.090 --> 05:54.450 Even within this process, steering towards potentially lethal double checks is actually, you know, 05:54.480 --> 06:03.150 more effective, as this example shows, than the plain vanilla light coordinated one, which could 06:03.150 --> 06:04.880 be carried in a resourceful manner. 06:05.130 --> 06:11.400 So Queen of Sticks is such a crusher, it takes out all the resources from from black, that threat 06:11.400 --> 06:12.570 of double check and mate. 06:16.230 --> 06:17.700 OK, yes, it's a tricky one. 06:17.880 --> 06:24.000 For example, Queen, the rook gate is double check and it from the queen and the rook is checkmate. 06:24.810 --> 06:26.210 So, yeah, this is a tricky one. 06:26.640 --> 06:29.430 I hope maybe you maybe you spotted Queen. 06:29.940 --> 06:30.390 Well done. 06:30.390 --> 06:30.890 If you did. 06:31.740 --> 06:40.290 But the point of these lectures, just to reiterate, is getting to know this process that I use routinely, 06:40.440 --> 06:45.440 basically in games to win tons of games, OK. 06:46.490 --> 06:47.060 Let's much.
