WEBVTT 00:00.950 --> 00:10.290 Hi there in this ingame example, I want to highlight something to you, sometimes there's a race between 00:10.290 --> 00:15.990 passports, so here Black has a passport and black as Kasparov. 00:16.020 --> 00:16.770 Garry Kasparov. 00:17.220 --> 00:20.550 And why is the American champion Jazzar, so on. 00:21.150 --> 00:26.850 And someone just played this move, which is an attempt to make this a very dangerous pass pawn. 00:26.850 --> 00:33.260 If it takes Kasparov plays up an ingenious move, the correct move. 00:33.930 --> 00:38.390 Now, there is a way of going badly wrong in this position. 00:39.090 --> 00:41.360 So let me test you here. 00:41.370 --> 00:43.740 What would you play in this position? 00:43.920 --> 00:46.680 You might want to pause the video playing hard. 00:48.000 --> 00:53.490 And if you get it painfully wrong, hopefully you'll remember this lesson for real games. 00:55.620 --> 00:59.820 The more pain, sometimes more gain, because you think about this a bit more carefully. 01:00.070 --> 01:01.500 It looks as though there's a race. 01:02.100 --> 01:06.660 When we say that there's a race, it conjures up the idea that you've got to run as quickly as possible 01:06.660 --> 01:16.010 in a race, however, you have sensitive cargo here, so factor that as well. 01:16.260 --> 01:17.910 What does black play here, you think? 01:17.910 --> 01:20.010 Which ends the game? 01:23.620 --> 01:28.720 OK, so I've played a fantastic move in this position. 01:31.160 --> 01:32.360 Which is king a free. 01:34.130 --> 01:40.450 The thing is, the -- is going to be queening will check in any case, that's going to be a tempo. 01:41.270 --> 01:44.520 So it looks as though or hold on. 01:44.540 --> 01:49.550 Why didn't we just push the -- minus a thousand points about pushing the --? 01:49.910 --> 01:56.090 The problem is sometimes the opponents king can come and totally blockade your -- king, too. 01:56.720 --> 02:05.180 And here, although we have the threat of King A2 and B1, the white king would totally extinguish that 02:05.180 --> 02:06.230 with King BE1. 02:06.830 --> 02:08.620 And this is extremely cruel. 02:09.380 --> 02:13.910 Your -- has now been it has been nullified. 02:14.630 --> 02:16.040 It's been totally nullified. 02:17.510 --> 02:25.580 Leaving White with a winning pass -- here of the Forsakes White just runs away with their past -- 02:25.700 --> 02:27.470 winning and winning. 02:27.890 --> 02:34.340 So the key point here, the way Xbox played it with King, a fray is very, very different. 02:35.960 --> 02:43.070 Now, for example, he takes off sex two and it's going to be with Chac. 02:43.430 --> 02:44.490 That's the key point. 02:45.110 --> 02:51.830 So even though it looks as though, you know, why it's -- is making progress, it's will check. 02:52.430 --> 02:57.350 And then where is the winning off that we can take this out and take everything out? 02:59.990 --> 03:08.540 So the moral of the story here, this attempt to blockade because we play free, we can shepherd our 03:08.540 --> 03:08.950 king. 03:09.530 --> 03:12.770 I personally like to think of the king as a shepherd. 03:13.410 --> 03:21.170 It's a way of safely taking your stock or your cargo, your passport to the queening squares without 03:21.170 --> 03:23.800 being cruelly blockaded. 03:24.560 --> 03:31.760 So here it's still going to be with check if they play F7 and we're going to rescue the whole situation, 03:31.760 --> 03:33.310 taking out all the pawns. 03:34.760 --> 03:42.800 So, yeah, the crucial point here is even though it seems as though there's a passport race and that 03:42.800 --> 03:50.990 conjures up you have to be very, very quick, actually, the more fundamental point is you have to 03:50.990 --> 03:53.180 be effective. 03:56.240 --> 04:02.600 And by effective, you know, not letting your palm be completely blockaded, so Kihei free a key move 04:03.380 --> 04:07.460 from Al, arguably one of the greatest chess players of all time, Garry Kasparov. 04:08.750 --> 04:13.120 And this assures that Black is easily winning this in-game position. 04:14.480 --> 04:20.230 So these scenarios with passports, they have their own finances to really respect. 04:20.960 --> 04:24.620 And there's a real beauty in these in-game positions. 04:25.190 --> 04:29.940 They're not as dry and boring as you might have conceived. 04:30.340 --> 04:36.860 Now, actually, if you play them correctly and find out these finesses, they have a very, very high 04:36.860 --> 04:38.260 stakes beauty to them. 04:38.270 --> 04:43.920 That one wrong move could spell the difference between losing or winning. 04:44.740 --> 04:47.020 OK, have you got some points? 04:47.930 --> 04:48.560 That's how much.
