at 6:52 what about ng5? the black knight prevents mate..

[KensOfficeUSA]

27.Ng5 is playable (focusing on the f7), but it really doesn't help in the attack (like Nh2 and Ng4). The might continue (with f7 in mind) 27. ...Rce8 28.Rcd1 Bc8 29.Re3 Rd7 30.Rxd7 Qxd7 31.Rf3 Ncd8 32.Nxe6 Nxe6 33.Qxe5 Bb7.

the idea is to attack the knight at e6 who defends the g7 square, could you check your lines, and plz explain which move was played at the video at 6:51(rcd1), by which move i mean 27th?

[SrbijaDavidp]

wait i got it but after 28.... bc8, how about 29.ng5 how is black defending the knight and defending the mate square on g7?

Maybe my comments were no clear. At 6:51 White makes its 27th move of Rcd1. You recommend 27.Ng5. And my comments for this are above (starting with "27.Ng5..."). I think your general comment is: how does Black defend the mate threat on g7 after Ng5. Let's say if 27.Ng5 (at 6:51 instead of Rcd1) Rce8 28.Nxe6, then 28. ...fxe6 and the rook on e7 guards g7.

I see, no complains now :)

what you always eat when you speak? It give some bad background sound. Otherwise, excellent video.

Thanks.

I think the mic is always a bit close to my mouth...so you hear everything. If I position it too far away, then the audio is hard to hear and I end up redoing the video. I just need a god (new) mic.

[SrbijaDavidp]

how about ng3 at 6:53 ?

[KensOfficeUSA]

Do you mean Ng5? If so, see my above comment.

27. Ng5 wins the game for white, black cannot prevent the mate.
