    5:56 Rxb4!!! If black takes back with his pawn, your queen will capture his rook on a8. If black tries to capture with his queen, it will lose the defender of c6 square and you will play Qxc6+ forking the king and the rook and your position is crushing!

      @@GMIgorSmirnov The Anti-Najdorf videos that uploaded many years ago is really helpful and easy to learn. I had hard time facing Najdorf before although I learned some lines as White like main line, English Attack and classical one but didn't score very well for me especially against player who play Najdorf a lot. But after I learned the one from here, it took them out of theory.

    I played Chess steadily in the early 80's, and I wish you had been around to teach us such beautiful tactics. I can see why Yasser Seirawan's high school chess team dominated our state for so many years.

  • @raymondmcyeetface6850
    @raymondmcyeetface6850 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I think it's Bishop A3 because once we take their bishop, if they recapture with their pawn, our queen can take their rook. Sorry I don't have proper notation memorized.

    Move the bishop at c1 to a3.
    Is that the stronger move rather than putting the pawn at a3?

  • @GigachadMann
    @GigachadMann ปีที่แล้ว

    Would Knd4 also work? The idea is we capture the pawn on c6 with either the queen or the knight, and then we have a positional advantage on black. Better with the queen, because it's also a check (5:55)

  • @mcwolfbeast
    @mcwolfbeast ปีที่แล้ว

    So, what if black pushes the pawn forward further at 04:15 ? vacate that highly-attacked square, gain a temp attacking the knight on e2... would that allow for something better?

    • @sureshpala8204
      @sureshpala8204 ปีที่แล้ว

      If d3, then Nf4 attacks the pawn twice

  • @saiesasrikarkommaraju736
    @saiesasrikarkommaraju736 ปีที่แล้ว

    the move is rxb4 if black takes with the queen we will capture the c6 pawn forking the king and the rook in the corner and also guarding our e5 pawn and if he capture with the pawn we will directly capture his rook in the corner.

    can you make video about queen indian all variations

  • @frederik1567
    @frederik1567 ปีที่แล้ว

    I guess the move is Rxb4 when pawn takes back you capture the rook when queen takes ,ou capture on c6 to firk the rook anyways

  • @frankbeerbaum5593
    @frankbeerbaum5593 ปีที่แล้ว

    Rxb4! If a5xb4 QxRa1 and white has won a bishop. If Qxb4, then Qxc6+ and afterwards QxRa1

  • @hansanaliyanarachchi1716
    @hansanaliyanarachchi1716 ปีที่แล้ว

    Rxb4 then the only move is Qxb4 , then Qxc6 + then we can easily cut the rook

  • @justahuman5342
    @justahuman5342 ปีที่แล้ว

    9. Rxb4 axb4 10. Qxa8 ... White is up a bishop and infiltrating with the queen
    Black calculated this and tries to avoid this variation, by capturing with 9...Qxb4 instead, but this move loses to 10. Qxc6+, forking the king and rook in the corner.

    Rook takes Bishop
    If they capture with the a5 pawn we take the rook
    And if they capture with the queen then queen takes c6 pawn with a check and win the rook on the next move

    It is very sad that as a GM you misleading people with such hyped-up titles. People play all their life and still cannot find a line to equalize and you make people believe that in 6 minute they can learn to destroy someone after a solid chess opening like 1.e4?? Please be honest and find alternate ways to increase your viewership on TH-cam.

    • @menace202
      @menace202 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I disagree. I appreciate how instructive these videos are and use them to improve my openings. The title doesn't matter because I'm getting useful information for free. If you came here with the expectation to destroy someone after one move, then you're simply new to chess and should be watching the content anyways to improve.

    • @yzfool6639
      @yzfool6639 ปีที่แล้ว

      If you don't use hyped-up titles on TH-cam, no one clicks, so this is a TH-cam issue, not a GM issue. If anyone suggests an opening line that wins more than 2 times out of 3 against your amateur peers in practice and leaves you with no significant disadvantage against the engine line, there is nothing misleading about such hyped-up titles. Only if players generally play the engine line and you gain a disadvantage when they do so, would such a title be misleading. Mr. Smirnov used to suggest such lines, but recently he has shown us the lines we can expect from our peers and often gives suggestions on the best engine line as well. If he doesn't, we can all look up the best move and decide whether it was misleading,. Then, I suggest we protest constructively by argument instead of by stipulation by leaving that line in the comments to protect us from the "hype".

    • @GMIgorSmirnov
      @GMIgorSmirnov  ปีที่แล้ว +4

      We did not have such "hype" titles in the past and our videos performed worse even with good content. We have to click bait a little with the title and provide valuable information.
