      Tbh its not that hard to find, removing the King from the strong dark bishop. For a 900 though its not trivial at all

    • @matan999rr
      @matan999rr 4 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      I wouldn't say its a move a human wouldn't see, just a move even a high rated human probably wouldn't favor doing at that particular point over a more active one

    • @robertofortunato6647
      @robertofortunato6647 4 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Kh1 followed by f4, why a human can't see it? (even a 900 player) He removed the king from diagonal because that f pawn was pinned and so after Kh1 he can play f4

    Thank you for playing my great great grandfather's opening. Yes, he would be very happy to see his brilliancy coming back to life again. It is a legacy in our family to keep on playing chess and spread this masterpiece around. I am currently around 1400 and hopefully I will make my way to 1500 with the family legacy. Thanks again for exposing such an exquisite gambit.

    Respect for him for not accusing him of cheating early on, EVERY gm when put in that game against a 900 will know he's cheating, but he didn't want to say that until he knew for sure.

    When you "lose the thread" in the endgame there are 3 options: 1) you're playing against a complete newbie, 2) you're playing against an engine, 3) you're playing against Magnus :P
