WEBVTT 00:00.930 --> 00:09.330 Hi there in episode six, Batfish shown an amazing study or composition, so these are actually composed 00:09.330 --> 00:17.190 by composers and they follow quite strict rules of composition and they vary in in their theme here. 00:17.200 --> 00:20.910 It's actually just a in free so white player. 00:20.910 --> 00:24.330 Mating phrases are often very, very hard to work out. 00:24.870 --> 00:29.180 So Baff looked at this and did actually find the mating fray here. 00:29.730 --> 00:33.480 So can you work it out for whites mate in free. 00:35.400 --> 00:39.300 So Whitfeld Move will be delivering the checkmates. 00:43.310 --> 00:47.330 So if I give you five cents for the video, I wonder if you can work it out. 00:52.880 --> 00:56.940 OK, the first move is King the Seven. 00:57.140 --> 01:02.510 Yeah, it's really, really tricky, the studies sometimes they're just a jumble of pieces like I try 01:02.510 --> 01:05.870 and stay away from them, but I hear it's not such a jumble of pieces. 01:05.870 --> 01:09.830 And Black has very, very limited responses here. 01:10.130 --> 01:11.900 There's only a king move or bishop move. 01:11.900 --> 01:12.470 It seems. 01:13.040 --> 01:21.620 So if Bishop G7 learned two moves now away from meeting the key move here, you might want to pause 01:21.620 --> 01:22.400 the video again. 01:22.670 --> 01:23.930 I'll give you pause there. 01:23.960 --> 01:26.480 What is the key move where you think? 01:28.230 --> 01:34.920 So it's actually literally like a mating two now, so it's actually night desex, so the Kings vacated 01:34.920 --> 01:41.870 that desex when it comes to these things and it doesn't really matter what black plays now, it's checkmate. 01:41.880 --> 01:49.020 On the next move, there are three different moves with the best shot, for example, and they all end 01:49.020 --> 01:49.950 up in checkmate. 01:50.850 --> 01:55.080 So, for example, Bishop 86, we have 98. 01:55.080 --> 01:55.560 Checkmate. 01:55.560 --> 01:57.940 The knight is controlling the G7 square. 01:59.610 --> 02:00.720 So if we go back here. 02:00.810 --> 02:03.780 So that's the beautiful thing about these studies here. 02:03.840 --> 02:08.370 98, the kings are controlling G7 bishop. 02:08.950 --> 02:11.070 The again is checkmating. 02:13.380 --> 02:22.230 And quite often in these studies like Pure Checkmates, that it's like there's no duplication of squares 02:22.230 --> 02:26.360 covered by the attacking pieces that are weaving the Masina. 02:26.820 --> 02:29.100 So you see they're all kind of complementary. 02:31.260 --> 02:35.640 So like the bishop is controlling she sex the distance controlling F7. 02:35.970 --> 02:42.720 It's nice looking at the color code at this point, looking at those green squares, this one, these 02:42.720 --> 02:47.250 two, Monju, the Kings also looking, he says maybe it's not that pure. 02:48.500 --> 02:54.000 So anyway, yeah, it's quite an interesting study if we look at this again. 02:54.000 --> 02:54.240 Yeah. 02:54.240 --> 02:58.410 It's just an absolute, you know, amazing free of the kingdom. 02:59.430 --> 02:59.700 Yeah. 02:59.700 --> 03:02.670 There's a whole number of this is a whole new world of chess. 03:02.670 --> 03:05.790 In fact, you know, composition's world. 03:06.090 --> 03:09.780 And there's actually tolerance for solving these studies. 03:10.260 --> 03:14.660 The British grandmaster, John Donne, he's a world class problem solver. 03:15.540 --> 03:18.210 So, yeah, they're very, very interesting. 03:19.020 --> 03:31.410 So King King D7 is meeting F King G7 then actually here again, you know, ninety and here F King and 03:31.920 --> 03:33.900 then there's nine takes a five. 03:34.140 --> 03:35.520 And that's checkmate here. 03:36.930 --> 03:43.360 Also if you can fight then it's actually this nine which delivers the checkmate. 03:43.360 --> 03:43.970 So that's cute. 03:43.980 --> 03:47.370 So it's either night depending on where the king goes. 03:47.820 --> 03:54.660 So on eight cents it's notates and five nice mechanics behind this and have Cepheid then it's this one. 03:54.960 --> 04:00.060 You can start to see some of the beauties of these compositions, OK. 04:02.090 --> 04:09.710 So, yeah, well done, you know, you know, a thousand points if you found this King seven, OK, 04:10.290 --> 04:10.870 and so much.
