WEBVTT 00:01.200 --> 00:01.850 Hi there. 00:02.280 --> 00:04.830 In this lecture, we see a pain being exploited. 00:05.040 --> 00:11.100 Can you find the right move to exploit a pain in this position if I give you five seconds to pause the 00:11.100 --> 00:11.490 video? 00:13.920 --> 00:19.500 OK, the power of the pen, peaceful pawns illusionary, so hopefully you've identified that this pawn 00:19.500 --> 00:21.690 is actually penned absolutely. 00:22.020 --> 00:23.150 To the king. 00:24.030 --> 00:25.220 Can we make use of that? 00:25.980 --> 00:31.890 Can we celebrate those illusionary squares which the pawn is not really protecting? 00:32.880 --> 00:36.050 Because those are real, actual downsides of the opponent's position. 00:36.600 --> 00:43.180 For example, this square is not really being protected if something took that pawn off. 00:43.590 --> 00:45.840 This point is not going to be able to recapture. 00:46.890 --> 00:49.220 So I hope you've spotted the first move. 00:49.230 --> 00:50.880 It looks as though our Brooks attacks, though. 00:50.880 --> 00:53.820 Hold on our rogues attack that we want to move the rook. 00:58.340 --> 01:00.450 The thing is, if we take time to move the rug. 01:02.200 --> 01:05.680 Sometimes opponents can really ruin our plans. 01:07.770 --> 01:11.910 So there might be a strong move than actually addressing this France. 01:14.830 --> 01:19.840 And that stronger move is actually Quig says, yes, letting it hadn't even taken its high road buys 01:19.840 --> 01:22.420 us some time in effect. 01:23.170 --> 01:25.920 So they take our rook off the King G2. 01:26.650 --> 01:29.620 They can't really check us too much from here. 01:29.650 --> 01:36.370 They can only find Rody to check or maybe Jiwon equally pointless after King Jeoffrey, they're going 01:36.370 --> 01:37.300 to run out of checks. 01:38.170 --> 01:40.880 Their queen is on the line, square and blocked in. 01:41.740 --> 01:44.740 So what checks that I have either Ruchi 083. 01:45.640 --> 01:46.870 So let's say we're free. 01:46.870 --> 01:54.970 We just take with the pawn to leave our queen on six and how black actually handle this frat's of queen 01:54.970 --> 01:58.960 size six mating you might think. 01:58.970 --> 02:01.270 Oh well maybe it's not mating. 02:01.270 --> 02:03.940 Maybe you know the bishop moves. 02:03.940 --> 02:09.310 Yeah it's still actually chapei here because the pawn actually controls the escape square. 02:09.820 --> 02:10.750 That is checkmate. 02:13.180 --> 02:14.740 So you might want to hold on King's Cross. 02:14.770 --> 02:18.130 This is all a bit flash is in this all about flash? 02:19.090 --> 02:24.070 What if we just did move the rook wouldn't we've had time bronze thing. 02:25.150 --> 02:27.790 He is an uncrowned king of the game. 02:28.600 --> 02:30.550 He had a very close match against makeable. 02:30.820 --> 02:36.910 And he said quite often the player with the move is in a great position and that is a big advantage 02:36.910 --> 02:37.720 to have the move. 02:38.020 --> 02:43.450 If he has the move here, they can actually maybe cause some issues. 02:44.080 --> 02:47.530 If you give them the time to have a move, then Queen D7. 02:47.710 --> 02:53.430 This is why it's quite good to keep things forcing, limiting the opponents replies so queen D7. 02:53.440 --> 02:59.530 And now all of a sudden the hold on check and we've got complications here. 03:00.100 --> 03:02.950 If we play here, you know Bishop see five check. 03:03.880 --> 03:06.370 And is this so clear now. 03:07.090 --> 03:08.560 It's not entirely clear is it. 03:09.190 --> 03:10.150 We're going to be Penns. 03:11.110 --> 03:11.780 This isn't right. 03:11.780 --> 03:16.700 Clever Bishop takes effort to check and here they can even unbend. 03:16.700 --> 03:18.400 Now with Queen takes E5. 03:18.400 --> 03:20.200 What a total disaster. 03:21.010 --> 03:26.080 So yes, sometimes being flash is also being pragmatic. 03:26.620 --> 03:32.440 If you severely limit the opponent's replies that Queen's allowed to centralize in this position. 03:32.440 --> 03:39.370 If we move on Rook, you can see we could be swindells here when we had this delightful queen Gesang. 03:39.520 --> 03:44.170 Absolutely delightful with the Queen still asleep on C8. 03:45.310 --> 03:49.480 So these tactics, sometimes they're not just flash, they aren't actually essential. 03:50.790 --> 03:57.060 Rather than plain vanilla, we call them plain vanilla moves sometimes are inferior to flashy moves 03:57.300 --> 03:58.540 like leaving a rock hanging. 03:59.010 --> 04:00.860 It trades off a little bit of time. 04:01.770 --> 04:06.310 Time can be of the essence, especially if the Queens friends come and centralize and start checking 04:06.310 --> 04:06.510 you. 04:07.500 --> 04:11.660 So I hope you enjoyed this example and got some points from it so much.
