00:00.990 --> 00:09.510
Why they're in this position, it looks as though why it's just given up a piece for not much.

00:09.540 --> 00:14.430
This is Richard Reti against the Valley Tartikoff, one of my favorite little games of all time.

00:14.440 --> 00:20.610
In fact, it does have an amazing discovery stall tactic.

00:23.140 --> 00:29.170
You might need to set it up, though, in a resourceful manner and accept an exceptionally outrageous

00:29.170 --> 00:29.570
manner.

00:31.180 --> 00:31.930
I want the.

00:33.190 --> 00:39.250
If you can work out what white plays in this position, which actually is winning by force, so if I

00:39.250 --> 00:44.680
give you five seconds pause video, I'd recommend you tackle Jack's even the most outrageous ones.

00:46.080 --> 00:46.650
OK.

00:51.030 --> 00:57.260
OK, it's a real beauty, this one, it's queen DHS.

00:57.990 --> 01:00.990
Believe it or not, it's very limiting any replies.

01:01.800 --> 01:05.010
So this is definitely something you should calculate.

01:05.850 --> 01:13.650
It should be you should be calculating these for sure as a priority to be aware, at least awareness.

01:13.650 --> 01:20.100
You might not necessarily always play out your false calculations, but be aware they could lead to

01:20.100 --> 01:21.030
something special.

01:21.060 --> 01:22.180
It could be a false win.

01:22.890 --> 01:26.070
So here we play in this position.

01:27.330 --> 01:27.870
Which.

01:29.050 --> 01:30.490
As a really crushing move.

01:35.100 --> 01:42.900
OK, we can actually play Bishop G five now if you're obsessed with the bishop in isolation of other

01:42.900 --> 01:50.660
pieces, we just look at five of your opponent, just the fence with almost the pull up.

01:51.870 --> 01:55.130
No, look else.

01:55.230 --> 01:57.540
Look at what else has happened in the position.

01:57.540 --> 02:05.880
We've actually discovered an attack with the rook on the king making this the double check, the dreaded

02:05.880 --> 02:08.610
double check on a double check.

02:08.610 --> 02:10.620
The king has the move.

02:11.520 --> 02:18.390
Not only that, as extra bonus points here, not only is it a double check, we've created what I'd

02:18.390 --> 02:21.570
call a killer common square on the eight.

02:22.260 --> 02:26.610
When we have a killer common square, that's the kind of license to kill on that square.

02:27.420 --> 02:30.840
It's like you're James Bond on that particular square license to kill.

02:32.040 --> 02:33.780
There's very limited replies now.

02:33.780 --> 02:37.560
So, you know, this is an illegal move with the government attached with the rook.

02:39.540 --> 02:41.460
Bishop is a legal move.

02:42.450 --> 02:45.240
The rook has to be addressed as well.

02:45.240 --> 02:47.160
So the king has to move somewhere.

02:47.700 --> 02:53.940
And now if the king moves the C7, which it did, guess what happens here if I give you five cents for

02:53.940 --> 02:54.330
the.

02:58.610 --> 03:06.710
OK, yeah, we use that common square bishop, D.A. and its it's made him ask, oh wow, what if what

03:06.710 --> 03:08.990
if the king had moved here?

03:10.010 --> 03:13.340
Well, it's the eighth checkmate.

03:14.410 --> 03:16.510
I know this is one of my favorite little games.

03:16.520 --> 03:20.540
I'll show you from the stock, because it's one of my it's such a short little game.

03:20.990 --> 03:26.870
It's a kind of trap, a kind of rare trap, actually, for the French defense player unsuspecting.

03:26.870 --> 03:28.400
You played this all looking queen.

03:28.400 --> 03:32.780
Differe, a black kind of is tempted to try and open up the bishop.

03:34.580 --> 03:42.050
You take her and it's as if you're allowing this knights be pinned, but then you just castle queen

03:42.050 --> 03:42.560
side.

03:44.650 --> 03:52.750
And if the queen had taken, by the way, he wanted the queen to the king, so 96 was played, but yeah,

03:53.350 --> 03:54.730
Queen the eight check.

03:58.310 --> 04:01.720
Isn't just brutal and beautiful at the same time.

04:05.960 --> 04:07.600
It's one of my favorites.

04:07.760 --> 04:10.980
I hope you like it to see the cuteness of it.

04:11.660 --> 04:18.170
I think it's super cute myself and it's always a pleasure to play for it and to be reminded, even though

04:18.170 --> 04:23.860
I've seen it loads of times before, it's just the mechanics of chess sometimes so beautiful.

04:25.580 --> 04:32.420
Especially with these discovered checks and double checks and severely limiting the power supply and

04:32.480 --> 04:38.000
you end up creating Telecom Square as you can start to see the absolute beauty and passion of chess

04:38.000 --> 04:40.820
that takes a passion within a passion of chess.

04:41.090 --> 04:42.830
OK, that's so much.
