Why they're in this position, it is why playing black is attacking our queen and also is threatening

00:10.620 --> 00:16.170
potentially nasty series of checks supported by that bishop on the five.

00:16.480 --> 00:22.830
So ideally, when you're in such a situation, it's good to run your attack or with checks, not to

00:22.830 --> 00:26.470
give the opponent time, an opportunity to do anything bad to you.

00:26.490 --> 00:29.760
So here, I wonder if you can spot why it plays.

00:29.760 --> 00:34.980
If I give you five seconds, pause the video so I won't play and force a checkmate.

00:36.090 --> 00:40.290
And it's a kind of it's the Lolly's checkmates.

00:41.640 --> 00:43.140
Not quite easily.

00:43.170 --> 00:49.650
There's a player called Lollie, but also I like to consider it as one of the features of a form --,

00:49.650 --> 00:56.580
a sort of go hand --, which essentially like a go go hang on like in European football, which is

00:56.580 --> 00:59.130
not lounds actually by European football rules.

00:59.130 --> 01:02.310
Yeah, it's generally offside.

01:02.310 --> 01:09.070
If your attackers are way past, you have to use their systematically build up rather than just go hang.

01:09.420 --> 01:14.780
But in chess you are allowed to have a go hanging -- and it really helps score the goal like me.

01:15.180 --> 01:15.780
But here.

01:15.810 --> 01:17.760
OK, so Waitz playing checkmate.

01:17.940 --> 01:18.960
What would you play here?

01:19.410 --> 01:20.340
Jackel Chiang's.

01:22.870 --> 01:25.400
OK, I hope you spotted the way to do this.

01:25.420 --> 01:32.470
It's actually Rook ain't check, not Rook G-7, because the king could go here, for example, and it

01:32.470 --> 01:33.390
gets a little bit tricky.

01:33.730 --> 01:35.370
You don't want it tricky when want clear.

01:35.890 --> 01:41.020
So Rook eight check very limited reply's.

01:43.910 --> 01:46.760
And now Queen 86 check.

01:48.970 --> 01:54.190
King G eight and now Queen G7 is checkmate.

01:54.690 --> 01:59.760
So, yeah, the form Putin supports this checkmate.

02:00.990 --> 02:05.970
And fundamentally, if your opponent is weak on dance class, you want to be looking out for Checkmates

02:05.970 --> 02:06.430
like this.

02:07.800 --> 02:14.310
OK, so yes, it's an important meeting to know that the Queen can just be assisted by a former pawn.

02:14.820 --> 02:20.450
The queen is like the top scorer on the chessboard to repeat the European football analogy.

02:20.940 --> 02:23.460
So having a go hang out to support the queen.

02:23.490 --> 02:28.080
It does make sense even from a football analysis perspective.

02:28.470 --> 02:36.120
So rule change a check and then we score the goal or checkmate like this Lolly's Chameides or from Pawn

02:36.120 --> 02:39.620
Checkmate, as I prefer personally to think about it.

02:40.290 --> 02:47.130
OK, quite often it's worth investing to get a dangerous form home and then get, you know, your queen

02:47.490 --> 02:48.900
to sensitive squares like this.

02:49.200 --> 02:54.150
Sometimes it's worth sacrificing, of course, to get these type of positions because checkmate ends

02:54.150 --> 02:56.880
the game OK and so much.
