00:01.020 --> 00:06.270
Why they're in this position, you are playing the role of Mecca Hotel, the magician from Riga, a

00:06.270 --> 00:07.540
former world chess champion.

00:07.920 --> 00:09.620
Now, what would you like to play?

00:09.840 --> 00:10.890
Would you like to play a chank?

00:10.900 --> 00:11.820
Would you like to be a pawn?

00:12.060 --> 00:14.690
Or is there something even more powerful that you can do here?

00:15.540 --> 00:21.420
Clue it's a decoy style tactic, a decoy when you kind of drag and drop one of your opponent's pieces

00:21.690 --> 00:25.350
to a specific square, which you can then exploit.

00:25.620 --> 00:32.700
So you're really interested in where that piece goes, unlike like a deflection, the difference between

00:32.700 --> 00:35.460
a deflection and decoy and the deflection.

00:35.820 --> 00:43.620
You're taking a defender away from a particular square or defensive task and a decoy.

00:43.800 --> 00:50.880
You're moving one of the opponent's pieces to a particular square so you can actually exploit it on

00:50.880 --> 00:51.520
that square.

00:51.750 --> 00:56.970
So is there such a decoy move in this position if I give you five seconds for the video?

00:59.150 --> 01:06.140
Can you see a decoy storm, so you're interested in kind of dragging and dropping one of your opponent's

01:06.140 --> 01:10.890
pieces onto a particular square and then you can exploit that piece on that square?

01:12.080 --> 01:20.510
OK, I hope you also use the middle game processes of chacal checks as well, because there's an outrageous

01:20.510 --> 01:21.220
looking check.

01:21.420 --> 01:28.130
Look, one check, but it's actually a decoy by sacrificing on that square, you actually specifically

01:28.130 --> 01:30.560
saying the queen comes EF1 square.

01:30.830 --> 01:38.480
And now, look, the pieces are in alignment when pieces of their lines, they can fall off to the dreaded

01:38.480 --> 01:39.220
skewer.

01:40.220 --> 01:45.170
So here we're scouring because the more valuable piece is then the less valuable is there.

01:45.590 --> 01:48.320
And then we're winning the queen, which actually resigned.

01:48.800 --> 01:52.010
That queen would be lost, say her queen AF1.

01:52.400 --> 01:53.620
That's hopelessly lost.

01:54.020 --> 01:59.790
So the skua tactic, you're very, very interested in a particular piece going to a particular square.

02:00.320 --> 02:03.050
So, yes, a bit distinct from the fractions.

02:03.050 --> 02:07.560
You should know the difference between deflection and decoy.

02:08.570 --> 02:13.770
OK, so the flexion eyepiece is moving away from a defensive task force.

02:13.790 --> 02:14.750
Quite decoy.

02:14.850 --> 02:19.850
It's moving to a defensive to a particular square.

02:20.490 --> 02:28.310
OK, Brooke, AF1, Jack Queen, I want to ask how you got that bad so much.
