@8:02 39. Rxd1, Qxd1 40. Qf1 (prevents checkmate) and it's two Queens vs a Queen & Bishop ending.
Great video though keep em coming. I really like your decision to trade down instead of moving f4 and exposing yourself when you didn't need to. I learned from that. Plus I like watching the trumposwski even though I haven't figured out how to play it myself. Maybe on day.
It's surprising he never played c5 which would have been strong for him since the white d4 pawn was pinned. I wanted to see your response to that. Instead he eventually played d5? and just created a very weak backward pawn that could be easily exploited. I'm no where near 1975 and even I could see that d5 for black was not good :}
@7777Ralph Yes no idea why he didn't go for this. Seemed obvious enough :)
