2:30 Would you rather trade Q (9) for a R and Q (14 points) or a Rook (5) for a Queen (9)...Re1+ is winning, but Qxc8+ is better. Also, when you are winning, it is better to trade/remove more material from the board usually. Love your videos GM Igor!!!

[@joelagee900]

You mean Qxc1+

[@JackBabu-x6h]

Re1 check so u must capture the rook then Bxd4

[@Akainu-es6ct]

[@baran-e9j]

You are a hero

2:50 This was Mate in 3 for black... by Rook Sac...Rxa2+ , Kxa2 , Qc2+ , Ka1 , Qb2##🙌

[@abhinavkushwaha7167]

After Qc2+, Kxa3 is the best move to avoid checkmate

[@henockpeterhp]

Ohh u are right.... I didn't see that....👍🏻👍🏻​@@abhinavkushwaha7167

[@craigbursch7011]

at 9:28, if white plays Qxh7, and then black plays Kf8, the queen is trapped is it not? Or am I missing a move for white here? I think Bxg6 needs to happen first. Or am I missing something??

[@nikolasioakimidis3003]

After Kf8, white plays Nxe8, attacking the black queen, if the black plays Rxh5 you capture their queen on c7 and you won a rook. If black decides to take the knight on e8 you slide the queen to g7 and you won the exchange and a pawn.

2:28 Re1 deflects the rook then Bxd4

[@zsombororovec645]

Re1+!! It's even better

[@ricardopinto2611]

In situations when i have no attacks and my opponent also has no attacks , sometimes you say to prepare an attack for the next move, sometimes you say to follow the rule of the least active piece. What idea should I prioritize? Or should I try to apply that two ideas at the same time? I am waiting for your answer. Thanks.

Make some video for black how to counter queen gambit

[@shadowmaster5709]

Either of the following:
1) ...Qxc1+, Rxc1 Bxd4. Now you have a bishop and 2 rooks against a rook and a bishop (+5)
OR
2) Re1+, Rxe1(Only move) Bxd4. Now you have a queen, rook and bishop against 2 rooks and a bishop.(+4)
I wrote this before watching the answer. I didn't know you'd announce the answer😭😭

[@frankbeerbaum5593]

Re1+ Rxe1 (is forced, deflects the Rook from attacking the Queen) Bxd4 wins a Queen for a Rook!

[@張謙-n3l]

The solution to the puzzle should be
... Re1+
forking the white king and rook. So white is forced to play
Rxe1
and then black can play Bxd4, winning a queen by sacrificing the rook

[@vedika_vedant_vaibhavjoshi3533]

I am your fan

[@stefanodemerich8085]

Igornation!

[@x3r0prime45]

Re1+, Rxe1 is forced, now Bxd4 wins the queen for a rook

[@sadiaafrin8450]

Re1.+,Rxe1
Bxd4

[@davidbatchelder85]

R e 1 Rxe1 Bxd4, winning
