Chessworld.net presents: Evolution of Style #67 Reti vs Capablanca

[boomali92]

@kingscrusher- On the knockout play you mentioned. If the rook takes the knight on e3, and the pawn takes capa's queen after, can capa's rook create a threat to the white queen on b3 after? Can black sacrifice his queen for a knight and a rook while creating pressure towards white's position?

[KevinByrne2]

12:32 -- The title of Réti's book was "Die neuen Ideen im Schachspiel" (Dee noy-en ee-day-en im shock-sh'peel) -- The New Ideas in the Game of Chess.

[partypianoplayer]

why cant you just show the fucking game as it was played? your really not that important...

[GlorifiedTruth]

@partypianoplayer - Watch it with the language... it's one of KingCrusher's pet peeves. Use a casual swear word on his site (like b_tch, for example) during a game against a friend and you run the risk of being expelled. :- (

Kingscrusher secretly hates cats.

[5y89sdfih]

There was the possibility of an early tactical shot for Reti, Nxe5 to win a pawn

[haine920]

I dont know if i missed something but i think KC didnt mention that the queen has to go on c5 ( at 20:27 ) because of the threat Nf3 to d2.

[ofpfury]

Great vid KC. Thanks :)

[BigSlivs7]

@haarpbeam UnRealistic : (

[deathbringerdk]

KC it is always nice to watch your videos... Clearly you take your time to prepare well... thanks for this.

[guitarfella581]

reti opening=my favorite opening and you mention jrobi the first chess commentator i ever watched

[AbacusRiver]

KC, your trolls are so adorable, I think you should celebrate them by providing links to plush troll dolls wearing a little "I H8 KC" around their neck!

If you google "troll doll" and look at images, you may find one with 20 in the photo.

[JoeyLieber]

woops never mind, then knight has a discovered attack while threatening mate 1 XD

[JoeyLieber]

25:18 why cant black play Rook takes knight on e3, and then queen takes the hanging rook on D1?

[enochdm]

@JoeyLieber Back to chess, nice vid. It's cool that at 25:20 the little tactic ...Rxe3 fxe3 Qxd1 isn't possible because of the devastating Nf5! Quote "mattoita"

[mrteoh123]

First off, let me declare my utmost adulation for KC and his channel. I just wonder if anyone else out there prefers the older videos of 10 minutes or so. They slot in more easily to smaller pockets of idle time, plus I think the shorter time forces the scripting to be tighter, which makes for a better viewing experience. But maybe that's just me.

[KevinByrne2]

@mrteoh123 -- I agree -- although some games require a longer treatment, so either you get multi-part videos about the same game or one long video.

[Chronofugit1]

Great Video!



[parazitu10]

thouse who are giving thumbs down are thouse stupid jrobychess fans:)),Who can't understand shit from this chess enthuziast and Nm Kingcrusher:)

[Tange013]

Fantastic video! I really appreciate them all

[geollnyz]

Thumbs up for Reti's streak breaking talent.

[ivBeats]

i really lol'd when you said "skinning the metaphorical cat"

[KNOCKEMout]

HEHE nice little plug for Jrobichess, woot woot!

Another nice video, i do enjoy. Thanks KC Thumbs up!!

[thepoisonwhisky]

Hi all!! - for game analysis

Mmm Ok - for blitz games (unless first game, where it tje all mighty "Hi all"!!

Love it!!

lol

[crazyim5]

Thumbs up if you feel the video is too long!

[victav]

THANK YOU for continuing this series!!!!!!!

[ShotDownInFlames2]

37 people lost control of their center.

Great game, thanks.

[GoGoAqua928]

at 25:23 ...doesnt 1. ...Rxe3 win a piece??

[ggaeta91]

@GoGoAqua928 I agree, why was it not played?

[enochdm]

@GoGoAqua928 Back to chess, nice vid. It's cool that at 25:20 the little tactic ...Rxe3 fxe3 Qxd1 isn't possible because of the devastating Nf5! Quote "mattoita"

[GoGoAqua928]

@enochdm why is Nf5 an exclam? 2 knights an isolated kings pawn and structural damage around the white king, in exchange for a rook....

theres clearly enough compensation

and after Qxf5...there is no trapping the queen

[enochdm]

@GoGoAqua928 you might have misunderstood me. After Rxe3,fxe3 then Qxd1 is not a check as the king is on g2 now, Meaning Nf5 attacks the queen wit hteh rook and also threatens mate on g7 with Queen and Knight. If the knight is taken, rook takes queen will result 2 knights for the queen. Clear win for white.also after Rxe3 fxe3, if the queen doesnt take the rook, white is just clear exchange up.

[yourBALDneighbor]

lol at 18:27 longest sentence ever

[jessicafischerqueen]

Added to "Capablanca by KINGSCRUSHER" playlist- nice to see a Richard Reti game analyzed.

[alinc2]

Great game, great video, I like stuff like that much more than your blitz-games, please continue your unpayable work

[Amanultra]

Thx for another great vid kc.

[GarrBear314]

yaay more evolution! probably my favorite series

[biernico]

I didn't analyze the game, but when the black queen occupied the c5 square seems to me that square should be for the e-knight instead... is there some major flaw with that... , so Qc7 Nc5 plan, instead of Qc5, in fact I will try to analyze this with the computer, I'm curious on what I'm missing

[biernico]

LOL "the skinning a cat , its just an expression" just cracked me up :P ...

so to be sure, you do not kill birds or skin cats :D

[chessparrotify]

Tartakower was not a hypermodern surely?

[AlThe1Buddha]

What about rxe3 at 25:18 with the idea of removing the defender because the queen is on d1

[mattoita]

@AlThe1Buddha loses the Queen after fxe3 Qxd1 Nf5!!

[TheBombojombo]

Reti's books Modern Ideas In Chess and Masters Of The Chess Board mentioned by KC are both one of my favorite chess books. Well written and his points and ideas are easy to understand. Recommended.

[anyfekinnamewilldo]

Another fantastic video. Thanks KC!

[1Abcplayer]

I have a question KC...slightly off topic tho. Any news from FatAndMad Chess? I Liked his Videos.

[AlanWattParrot]

@haarpbeam just watched yr battle with kc - you did allright, got a nice style

[maxsagibgareev]

Thanks for the upload! Great comments to the game. When you will become a master? Best!

[13oliparadox]

21 people got there kings crushed by none other than KC

[mattoita]

Stop caring about the dislikes. This guy(s?) will eventually get bored of this dull activity.

Back to chess, nice vid. It's cool that at 25:20 the little tactic ...Rxe3 fxe3 Qxd1 isn't possible because of the devastating Nf5!

[MrPeak111]

@mattoita That will never happen. They're too busy white knighting for just about the dumbest thing ever. 'Oh noes someone clicked dislike!' You are right, though. Who cares. On the other hand it is pretty funny watching all of them throw a fit about it. Or even bring it up at all. Day after day. They still haven't figured out that their little fits are the whole reason those guy(s?) click dislike so much. And never will. Especially when the maker keeps commenting about it.

[TheBigGuppy]

Capablanca was amazing. He played safe simple opening schemes letting his opponent easily equalize then would proceed to annihilate them. :D

[Nilgard]

How 'bout we all make multiple accounts like the haters and show the Like button some love?

[AlanWattParrot]

great series - useful insights, natural style of presentation, really enjoyed this one

thumped! (= thumbed up)

[MrPeak111]

Also, I like this video. Reminds me of my old chessmaster game commentaries ^.^

[MrPeak111]

Are there people that have been complaining about you using similes lately? You keep saying 'i dont shoot birds' and 'i dont skin cats'. Are there PETA members sending you angry PMs or something? Don't worry about what people think about what you say so much. Too many people these days just looking for a reason to be offended. ><

[scottie55901]

It is these games that make it look so simple!! There is the tight rope of center control early in the game but after that it becomes a demonstration of just do this, this and that and your winning! Love it!

[omari1555]

i dont get why people would dislike these videos. if they are not your cup of tea dont drink it

[Robinpostal2]

finally evolution of chess style!

[yp06407012]

the 28 likes is now 40 likes.

[justinphilm]

thumbs up if you check every day for new kc videos.

always good to see new stuff from you kc, gratefull for every video you post

[Solonil]

@justinphilm I check it several times a day.

[lemaire90]

@justinphilm Totally !

[Elkhwind]

I do like watching your videos.

[foryoublue100]

I don't understand, why would anyone dislike this? What joy could they get from doing that?

[apd09]

Do you think all the people hitting dislike are the ones you are filming and doing live analysis of games on? I can imagine when you are in tournaments and there are a bunch of 1700 and 1800 range ranked players for them to see you at 2200-2300+ they must be angry and then on top of that how you are doing the commentary and posting their losses.

[kingscrusher]

I don't feel there has been a good likes/dislikes "tug-of-war" until there have been at least 28 dislikes totally obliterated. Come on dislikers - can't you get it up to 28 today already?!

[kriss456]

@kingscrusher

It is just some guy with multiple youtube accounts. Don't even bother about it. Keep doing what you are, and we will keep loving it, apart from that one guy. So even better, keep these videos coming, just to annoy him even more :D

[Minkar]

@kingscrusher added one per your request.

[Curtains1337]

i liked the video :)

[clavidor12121]

Great vid. Looking forward to more 5min ICC's and more of these longer analyses.
