4:02 ... Hello! I play this variation on a regular basis and do a bit of theory on this variation. But in practice, I recently encountered that strong players (IM, FM) in the variation 1.e4 e6 2.Nf3 d5 3.e5 c5 4.b4 cxb4 5.a3 bxa3 6.d4 Nc6 7.c3 Bd7 8.Bd3 8...b5!? (with the idea of further b4, undermining the base of the pawn chain and threatening the light-squared bishop with an exchange after Nb4) and if 9.Bxb5?! , then after 9...Nxe5! White gets a dubious (bad) position with no compensation for the pawn, as there are further exchanges of important pieces for White. 8...b5 9.Ng5 - doubtful because of 9...b4!. Maybe 8.Nxa3!? avoiding b5 right away?
I play wing gambit regular on serious games too. In your variation 8...b5 there are like three moves: 9.Bxb5/Nxa3/0-0. All of then are ok. My favorite is 9.Bxb5 Nxe5 10.Nxe5! Bxb5 11.c4! with the idea 11...dc 12.0-0 f.e. Nf6 13.Nxa3 is now with tempo on bb5
Hey i used to see your videos in 2014 i guess Colorado gambit series I must say your voice us the same. I never knew how you looked like.. such a pleasure to know you still make videos on chess . GJ you’re awesome! I left chess though..
If Black plays Qa5 instead of ba, it never comes down to these desperate ends. Like Bd2 Bd7 Bd3 Qb6...White has good compensation, but no direct attack
Around the 7 minute mark, it looks like you're missing the the best move for black, Nf6 which the engine says allows black to hold the position and maybe have an advantage?
c3. one line like: 1.e4 e6 2.Nf3 d5 3.e5 c5 4.b4 c4 5.c3 a5 6.b5 a4 (to prevent whites a4 and to isolate pb5) 7.d3 (or d4) cd 8.Bxd3 Bc5 9.Nd4 you have a strong knight on d4. Its very positional, slowly attacking play
@@GJChess It's the same mating attack, basically. White's dark-squared Bishop fights on Kingside just by sitting there, and the stinger in the tail is the long-postponed capture on a3.
Thanks!

After qa5 is bd3 mainline. Yeah, bd2 is good to and i beat with bd2 an fm otb

Amazing video. Thank you!
Great commentary as usual!
I love the sound affects ! 😂
Nice work again 👍🏻
Sir when you play b4 if black plays c4 then?
Very nice
Sir in French wing variation if black replies c4 then?

At 6;56... I'm apparently blind tonight....why can't black play K:g6?? I might need more caffeine.

I’m confused at 9:20. How is Nd6 effective if blacks dark squared bishop still controls F8 🤔
It's a check so the king has to move, if it does then then the f7 pawn is very weak so Bxd6 is forced
@@vidhursabareesh8917 no the king does not have to move…black can take with Bxd6…
@@nigelstanford4then we have those tactics regarding Bh6 or Ba3
@@vidhursabareesh8917 how when the Queen is covering all of that?? 🤔

I tried this once and after 1.e4 e6 2.Nf3 d5 3.e5 then ...Bd7, which I found very annoying.
a3 then. I love, if the people play 3...Bd7
@@stolensoul2355 Yup that's a decent retort!
Danke!
This is kinda similar to Sicilian wing gambit , thanks now I’m gonna use this 😊
A very pretty reason not to play the French.
