    For those, who wonder, when white messed up, ending in all those lines: Ng5 is bad (but still +0.5). Bg5 is also not the best move. If white plays the simple Nc3 in move 5, engine gives it +1.83 at depth 40-ish. 5. o-o is a close second best move.

      @@nonhlanhlangwenya5083 after 5...f5 6. Qh5+ forces ...g6, now one option to consider is 7. Bf7+ Kf8 8. Bxg6 hxg6 and while 9. Qxg6 maybe looks threatening, black can defend with Qe7 or even Qf6 white only has two attacking pieces its not enough to do anything u are down bishop for two pawns and black is ahead in development. alternatively 9. Qxh8 Qxg5 or a slightly better version is 9. Ne6+ dxe6 10. Qxh8, material wise white has a rook and pawn for the two pieces which isnt too bad however white has traded active pieces for passive pieces, the white queen on a8 isnt rly doing/threatening anything and is actually a bit awkward there, black has actively placed pieces and white is not prepared to defend with its undeveloped bishop knight rooks.
      if white doesnt play 7. Bf7+ then it has to move the queen (which is attacked by the g6 pawn), and going to any square other than h4 will quickly lose the knight on g4 [if Qg5 then ...d5, after white either moves the queen or plays Ne6 then black captures the bishop ...dxc4]. so 7. Qh4, then black has a very complicated line ...Be7 8. Bxf4 which i am struggling to follow but the computer gives it as pretty favorable to black, or just 7...h6 8. Bxg8 Rxg8 9. Qxh6 Bf8 10 Qh4 Qf6 threatening 11... Rh8 which will remove white's queen from defending the knight and the only way to avoid this is 11. Nf3 offering a trade of queens. black ofc doesnt have to accept but either way black is again way more active and much better position, and the pawn on f4 is continuing to keep white from developing effectively. (computer suggests that white give up the knight for the e and f pawns at least in some lines.) again black is generally just better

    and black responds with f5, I believe this is called the Alexandre gambit?

    I typically don't play 3...Bc5 as Black, preferring the Two Knights Defense; but, after seeing this video, I might give the Lucchini Gambit a try. It looks very interesting. I've never seen it before. And, I'm guessing, if I've never seen it, there are probably a lot of other players who have not seen it. It could be a great surprise weapon. The only problem is that it requires White to play 4.d3 which, I think, is a fairly rare move as most Italian players seem to prefer 4.c3.

    11:34 After Qg5, white can respond with g4. The queen defends this pawn and capturing en passant in either direction will either lose the queen or the rook. Not sure how you prevent f3 and the locking up of the king side. I don't think that passed h pawn will be enough for black.

    For 13:45, Qf7+ forces a queen trade and they're down a knight (for the pawn they captured earlier) which should be a bit better than a queen for a rook.

    What if white simply accepts the gambit and takes the pawn?

  • @UmarAlFarooq
    @UmarAlFarooq 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    2:09 Qh5!
    You are screwed big time.
    If you move your king left, checkmate. If you move your king up, check with queen again or N forks Q & R.
    If you block with the pawn, Bf7!
    Only choice left is a king move. Ke7, BxPg6 saving the queen and pinning Ph7, which he can lose to a knight attack the next turn.
    Alternatively, Bf5, attacking the Pd7. If King had moved previously to f8 then there is a checkmate threat, not to mention a N fork if white bishop takes d2.
    Overall this is a giant mess for black.
    After Q5!, white queen can also just move back to h4.
    I hope you read this comment and respond.

      @isaackarachunsky4829 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Black is winning in the line you describe. After Qh5 g6 Bf7+ Kf8 Bxg6, black can just take the bishop. If white plays Qxh8, black plays Qxg5 and has a winning advantage.

      I feel like the only two Italians that are played commonly are giuoco pianissimo with c3 before d3, knight attack and three knights. Cool gambit, but i will definitely forget everything about it by the time I see a d3 Italian

    Nice gambit, thanks a lot. At 8:01 I would prefer Bf4 over the promoting pawn at g1, since it forces a cheaper exchange against whites’ queen.

    Very nice video! One question: At minute 13:28, why can't the white knight capture the pawn on h7? If black captures the queen with the pawn on h5, then white knight can capture back the black queen and fork rook and king. It seems better for white to me... what did I miss?
