  • Join GM Simon Williams as he breaks down the best moves from GM Alireza Firouzja!
    Alireza Firouzja is an Iranian-born grandmaster, a world-class player and the youngest player in the world rated over 2700. He is a two-time Iranian champion and the reigning European Fischer Random champion. As of February 1, 2020 Firouzja is the only teenager ranked in the top 25 (ranked #23 with a rating of 2726).
    In late 2019 and early 2020, Firouzja electrified the chess world with his second place finish in the World Rapid Championship (one point behind World Champion Magnus Carlsen) and his amazing 5/7 start at the 2020 Tata Steel tournament.

      queen can be the rook and bishop, but not knight. Knight can capture the queen without exchange.

    • @italixgaming915
      @italixgaming915 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      3:20 You don't even need to capture the Queen right away. You can make something funny and beautiful there: Kh8 (only legal move) Bb2+ Qg7 (since Bd4 leads to Bxd4+ and Qf6 to Bxf6#) Qf4 (so now Qxb2 is impossible because you have Qf8+ Rxf8 exf8=Q#) and there White has a double threat: Qf8+ (with the idea of exf8=Q#) and Qf7 (with the idea of Qxg7# or Bxf7#). There is no defence against that. The King is trapped, the Queen can't move and the other pieces are completely useless. All the options fail: Nd7 defends only f8, Rxe7 and Nd6 defend only f7, and Bd4 or Bxf2+ only give one more move to Black (met by Bxd4 and Kxf2).
