WEBVTT 00:00.840 --> 00:01.510 Hi there. 00:02.070 --> 00:09.930 In this election, we look at the ratings mate's pattern, and it's actually from a game which is nicknamed 00:10.590 --> 00:18.120 Suckerpunch by chess games Chom, which I recommend, it's free to use chess Gamescom and to look up 00:18.270 --> 00:19.050 most games. 00:19.560 --> 00:26.130 So there's a game they called Suckerpunch Black just took on efore here for me, this is one of the 00:26.130 --> 00:30.120 more magical miniature games in existence than I've ever seen. 00:32.010 --> 00:38.330 And I even rave about this game to complete non chess players sometimes to show them the beauty of chess. 00:38.880 --> 00:40.240 So here won't play. 00:40.290 --> 00:42.180 What does white play if I give you five seconds. 00:42.180 --> 00:42.870 Pause Viniar. 00:48.740 --> 00:52.010 OK, White actually plays. 00:53.920 --> 01:02.740 Queen, the Achak, the very limited replies black now we play all the time, protect, which severely 01:02.740 --> 01:08.140 limits replies because it's a double check from both the rook and the bishop. 01:08.140 --> 01:13.370 Black is forced to move the king now in the game, which gives rise to this mating pattern. 01:13.900 --> 01:16.980 The king went to see seven and the final move. 01:16.990 --> 01:17.670 Can you spot it? 01:17.690 --> 01:22.690 Telecom and squares at work bishop to his. 01:23.620 --> 01:26.820 So this configuration fundamentally evolves. 01:26.890 --> 01:31.750 So impressed by this game, they call it the rat is male pattern that fundamentally escapes. 01:31.750 --> 01:35.710 Queens are taken up by four of the opponent's pieces. 01:36.190 --> 01:41.140 Fundamentally, there's a rock that is supporting a bishop for this checkmate. 01:42.190 --> 01:49.060 So if he can get the Razzies mate, you're essentially celebrating this Suckerpunch game. 01:49.690 --> 01:51.940 Yeah, quite a cultural reference indeed. 01:52.690 --> 02:01.720 If the king had gone to Aetate, then this is more opera meets style, as in the opera game, which 02:01.720 --> 02:06.420 is another cultural classic epic game to check out the opera game. 02:07.480 --> 02:14.740 So on this occasion, so Richard Rati playing against Anscar plays Bishop the HMG. 02:15.100 --> 02:23.980 Both of these players are among the leading modernists around this time 1910, who introduced a lot 02:23.980 --> 02:26.470 of interesting ideas to extend the theory of chess. 02:26.470 --> 02:31.960 They found what I'd call useful exceptions to the established theory. 02:31.960 --> 02:40.810 So they extended theory with this investigation and they were all pretty good tactically to be able 02:40.810 --> 02:42.460 to prove their theories. 02:42.850 --> 02:45.700 They proved that at the board with opponents. 02:46.030 --> 02:51.700 Richard Ratti, for example, became blanker with one referee saying you don't need to always occupy 02:51.700 --> 02:53.080 the center in your first move. 02:53.650 --> 02:59.770 So the Ratti opening was theoretically surveille Tasco, a brilliant character, fantastic quotations, 03:00.220 --> 03:06.490 which you need to check out some point, a lot of witty quotations that the winner winner of the game 03:06.490 --> 03:09.040 is the one which makes the last part one mistake. 03:09.790 --> 03:12.940 Chess is a fairy tale of the blunders, etc.. 03:13.300 --> 03:17.350 So anyway, these two have modernists played this amazing game. 03:17.980 --> 03:24.370 This amazing pattern is a link to that culture and this epic game. 03:24.760 --> 03:26.500 OK, and so much.
