WEBVTT 00:01.140 --> 00:08.370 Why they're in this thing is his to play and win, what do you think is a fantastic move in this position? 00:08.370 --> 00:12.120 And follow up, if I give you five seconds to pause the video. 00:18.810 --> 00:25.860 OK, this is really remarkable use of a pen, if I say so myself, yes, it excites me. 00:25.860 --> 00:31.680 These these tactical positions, even if I've seen them before, there is a level of excitement given 00:31.680 --> 00:32.130 to them. 00:32.730 --> 00:37.260 And in this case, the key move is actually broke. 00:37.270 --> 00:43.020 The seven pinning that bishop with the idea to the bishop's immobilized. 00:43.030 --> 00:48.570 And the idea is actually on this occasion, just to totally eliminate it, take it out of the picture, 00:49.050 --> 00:55.890 which rotates the sex to sent up this move without any defensive capability at all for the opponents 00:56.070 --> 00:57.920 because that bishop could have been a hero. 00:58.320 --> 01:04.770 So we kind of used a pen to remove a potential hero because here there's a beautifully crushing move 01:04.770 --> 01:07.110 which actually demonstrates some other tactical ideas. 01:07.860 --> 01:09.090 I wonder if you can spot it. 01:09.120 --> 01:12.360 It's absolutely wonderful forcing move. 01:13.260 --> 01:20.850 So when you prioritise forcing moves, look for checks, captures and France of one or two, no matter 01:20.850 --> 01:23.310 how outrageous looking. 01:28.130 --> 01:34.280 This next move is a kind of blockade pen, I'd call it, as well, look out for these kind of blockade 01:34.280 --> 01:40.970 pens where pawns, you know, they don't necessarily need to need to be pinned to be immobilized. 01:40.970 --> 01:42.600 They can actually be blockaded as well. 01:42.890 --> 01:45.670 So in a way, it's a kind of Sundsvall blockade pen move. 01:46.280 --> 01:47.530 I hope you can spot it. 01:47.900 --> 01:49.250 It's so beautiful. 01:51.780 --> 01:59.190 OK, it's actually queen of sex, so we're actually fretting outrageously this battery are mates with 01:59.190 --> 02:01.490 Queen 67 mate. 02:02.250 --> 02:06.200 So as an example, you know, if they took their queen, she's having a chat, mate. 02:06.960 --> 02:08.490 And here's another example. 02:10.290 --> 02:10.910 Gee, thanks. 02:10.920 --> 02:15.780 We play rock for check, forcing the K into a corner, which is kind of bad news generally. 02:16.140 --> 02:17.670 Bishop says checkmate. 02:18.180 --> 02:21.990 You might wonder why on earth was all this necessary? 02:22.470 --> 02:29.220 And couldn't we have also, you know, played this well that -- is not immobilized here like it is 02:29.220 --> 02:34.410 with queen of sex, you know, black and play f sex as an example and gets play on, OK? 02:34.440 --> 02:38.700 I mean, yeah, but, you know, basically gets to play on in that position. 02:40.410 --> 02:46.700 So it's an immobilizing kind of type of pain as well, in effect, because we're mobilizing the airport. 02:47.190 --> 02:48.350 You might want to hold on. 02:49.020 --> 02:50.700 What did you have to start with? 02:50.880 --> 02:57.660 The seven when the Queen of sex, can you see a snag with queen of sex her, which we've actually we've 02:57.660 --> 02:59.610 removed the potential of position. 03:02.130 --> 03:08.490 Because for sure, if you know Tasya, then we're back to that meit's idea, but black in this position 03:08.490 --> 03:10.500 would have an extra resource. 03:11.070 --> 03:14.700 Bishop takes E5 just defending against Maiffret. 03:17.210 --> 03:23.600 And that would be fine, you know, blacks living to tell the tale, so by actually making use of a 03:23.600 --> 03:26.710 pen from the outset, we've removed the defensive potential hero. 03:27.650 --> 03:29.210 And there's another kind of pen. 03:29.210 --> 03:35.720 In a way, some of the more brilliant moves in chess are these kind of blockade to move pin, you know, 03:35.720 --> 03:36.800 tying down the pawn. 03:36.800 --> 03:40.460 It's immobilizing the same kind of fundamental facts that we're looking for. 03:40.460 --> 03:44.290 Immobilisation is the broader goal of Penns. 03:45.230 --> 03:50.600 That's why, you know, the great writer acronyms vetch in my system categorisations not just a tactical 03:50.600 --> 03:54.080 thing, but a strategic thing, the immobilisation aspect. 03:54.500 --> 03:57.250 And that's why I also potentially like celebrating Penns. 03:57.260 --> 03:58.700 It might be over a number of moves. 03:58.850 --> 04:06.500 You might have immobilized some part of the opponent's position and that's in the broader schemes of 04:06.500 --> 04:07.610 the war. 04:07.640 --> 04:12.050 If you can immobilize part of the opponent's army, you're kind of putting yourself beyond the feet 04:12.050 --> 04:13.270 before going on the attack. 04:13.610 --> 04:16.460 So there's a lot of war principal going on as well. 04:16.770 --> 04:22.940 The experienced fighters will try and immobilize the opponents and then attack. 04:24.320 --> 04:30.440 But we've actually literally taken out in this example, which is really fantastic in my view. 04:31.220 --> 04:38.630 We've taken out that defensive hero to make Queen safe sex, which is a stunning move in its own right, 04:39.140 --> 04:41.070 because it blocks the form as well. 04:41.090 --> 04:45.410 There's no defense, you know, desex 27, rookie Maru's 27. 04:46.040 --> 04:46.690 It's going to be made. 04:47.540 --> 04:51.650 Yeah, this this really is a juicy, beautiful, you know, combination's for me. 04:51.650 --> 04:56.660 I hope you appreciate the beauty as well of what's happened here and this particular story. 04:59.410 --> 04:59.980 OK. 05:02.220 --> 05:07.890 One of those staffers that wrote these seven starts off the action, taking out a potential defensive 05:07.890 --> 05:12.000 hero, the bishop, on these things and so much.
