0:51 Why not knight takes a5? Because then, if rook takes a5, then bishop takes f2 check, king takes f2, rook takes rook on a5 gaining a tempo because white has to defend the bishop, plus a strong attack on white king which has moved and cannot castle.
@gentlemantaste Maybe becouse blacks doesnt want to leave a7-g1 diagonal. Also several lines of evans gambit accepted gives to white nice options and unstoppable attack. If You want to learn more about opennings You can find great videos here (on YT).
it seems like the best move is always the most forcing move. pretty obvious what the continuation was. black was being very optimistic in his appraisal
