Hi there.

00:02.520 --> 00:09.660
In this lecture, do we have a kind of removal of the gods defender or undermining style tactic, which

00:09.660 --> 00:10.590
could be useful?

00:10.650 --> 00:14.910
So I'll give you 5 seconds to pause the video and try and work it out to the end.

00:15.810 --> 00:21.390
So the clue is, is you're going to make use of an undermining style tactic.

00:22.080 --> 00:22.920
Okay.

00:25.130 --> 00:28.580
So this was from a Garry, a game of Garry Kasparov.

00:29.270 --> 00:35.810
Kasparov was playing black against Vitali Chef Koski and played Actually, the Undermining Rook takes

00:35.810 --> 00:36.350
F two.

00:36.380 --> 00:41.780
It undermines the g free square that have to pawn was controlling G3.

00:41.870 --> 00:43.700
And this is pretty devastating.

00:43.730 --> 00:54.800
White played rook takes F2 and now with that newly one g free square of pounces into that we have Queen

00:54.800 --> 01:02.270
G2 and Alex is able to take the rook on F2 camp one.

01:02.600 --> 01:05.660
And now actually this is also a really clever move.

01:05.660 --> 01:12.770
So this is a away from our famous this is a really clever move now that some squares have been weakened

01:12.770 --> 01:17.480
because probably two steps away with Queen E5 and white is in big trouble.

01:17.720 --> 01:19.550
So Bishop F4 was tried.

01:20.360 --> 01:24.950
If Queen takes F2, then we can actually pin the queen to the king.

01:25.340 --> 01:26.750
So that would be really vicious.

01:26.750 --> 01:32.570
So the king is kind of exposed and the likelihood of Pence has increased dramatically.

01:32.660 --> 01:39.710
And if King takes F2, then Rook have a check and then the queen can come in and yeah, there's another

01:39.710 --> 01:40.280
pin here.

01:40.430 --> 01:46.070
When the king is exposed like this after an undermining on F2, you know, quite often look out for

01:46.070 --> 01:46.700
pins.

01:46.880 --> 01:57.000
But in the game actually Bishop F4 was played which has a kind of major downside here because part of

01:57.060 --> 02:04.040
just took on F4 off the queen takes F2 can you spot the final move which ended the game okay so a puzzle

02:04.040 --> 02:04.610
within the puzzle.

02:04.610 --> 02:11.120
Again, if you look for the theoretical downside to the opponent's position, there's actually an unprotected

02:11.120 --> 02:16.100
piece, a classic theoretical downside, but also just the process of looking forward to the position.

02:16.100 --> 02:18.760
Check all checks, prioritize the forcing moves.

02:18.770 --> 02:20.480
I hope you can find the final move.

02:21.440 --> 02:22.640
It's Queen C for Shaq.

02:22.640 --> 02:23.930
Yeah, it picks up that night.

02:24.080 --> 02:32.540
So quite crushing sequence of events from Brooke takes F2 so kind of undermining G three once that King

02:32.540 --> 02:39.500
was exposed lots of tactical implications especially pins a bouncer on that file.

02:39.830 --> 02:42.830
Well yeah, it's just quite an amazing combination.

02:42.980 --> 02:50.420
So I hope you got some points from this example and reinforce your undermining concepts kind of removal

02:50.420 --> 02:51.260
of the defender.

02:51.800 --> 02:53.960
Okay, that's a much.
