      I'm not even that impressed. Not every 900 has the same set of skills. Sometimes you get a low elo just by playing with bad focus/consistency or just being totally naive strategically, but still spot some pretty good tactical patterns. I think he noticed the king and the queen were in a fork and he started thinking about how to remove the defenders of f3. That's not so rare even in low elo games.

    17:54 As a fan of knight forks I don't get why Levy is so surprised at this tactic. It's pretty common and is only a few moves. When I have a knight and see a queen near a king I look for forks even if it means sacking to gain more material after. I'm guessing he moved his knight there for that reason.

    Can any high level players explain why taking the bishop at 3:10 is good. I know Gotham explained a little bit but I thought that the knight planted on c5 would be more advantageous than taking a bishop that has is locked up by its pawns. Is it like Gotham said just better because it gives white a target? I’m about 1300 rapid just trying to understand positional middle games a bit better. Thanks

    • @jrd33
      @jrd33 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Bishops are generally worth slightly more than knights. In this position black's bishop is poor, but once white removes it, his own(currently poor) white squared bishop becomes really good. After Ba4, black's knight on c6 is pinned to his queen and can't be defended by a pawn, and black can't remove white's excellent bishop on a4.

    17:12 To be fair I made a very similar queen sacrifice two days ago (September 27th) and I was rated as a 659 at the time (I started playing chess around a month ago). Well also to be fair I was playing a 30 minute game and spent around a minute and a half on that move which is a very different situation then blitz. My sacrifice was also simpler in that I didn't have to lure the enemy queen there I just had to remove the enemy bishop from defending the c2 square so that I could fork the king and queen with my knight. I can post the link to the game if anyone thinks I'm lying btw.

    I can kinda see how those crazy moves happened. He brings his room over planning to take the knight, takes, but oh no the queen takes his rook. So he looks for a potential attack and sees "Oh, this spot is guarded by the knight, so I can move my queen there to attack!" Then pawn takes queen and he's like "Aha! I can get a check!" He checks the opponent, the king moves, and he's just like "what else can I take... Oh look at that my knight can take the queen! Yay!" And he takes the queen. Totally luck.

    That might be an interesting concept for a video... you see a move and have to guess if it's a random 900 elo weird move or if it's an actual crazy engine move on 35 depth or something

  • @SparkDragon42
    @SparkDragon42 2 ปีที่แล้ว +10

    My theory for the brilliant move is that the Queen sacrifice doesn't seem that hard to see after the capture of the rook so I think the sub thought they blundered a rook but then they realised they could get the queen back with the knight fork while capturing the bishop :)

    17:49, honestly all I could think about was that fork. As soon as the knight blocked the queen, I was just waiting to see if there would be the perfect moment to fork someone. (Albeit, without sacking the queen)

    There's many times where I'll go into a game after having done some puzzles and that kind of thinking leads me into some beautiful tactics. I expect that's what the 900 had done.

    Mr. Rozman, On rook-queen sack, I suspect this is what occurred. 1. Sub blunders rook. Then the Sub sought ways to recover. Sub saw the knight fork possibility. Then the Sub saw the queen sack. I would be interested to see the move times. Best wishes, Mark Pullen

  • @Somerandom1922
    @Somerandom1922 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Yeah I could absolutely see that in a chess puzzle, but not a chance would I catch that in a game. As soon as he took the knight with the castle I paused and realised what was happening but I'd never see that when actually playing unless it was like a daily game and I was very committed to winning
