This video series focuses on Grandmaster level chess blunders. Even at the top levels of chess mistakes are made, which helps keep the game exciting!

This particular video features a line played in a game between Nigel Short and Peter Nielson in the 2008 Olympiad. The full game PGN is available on my blog at http://www.jrobichess.com

  • when is the next vid of this series?

  • If the queen captures the knight, it is Qb8 checkmate (forced in one). If the queen captures the knight, it is Qh7 checkmate. What is this 'devastating check on H7?' you can just mate the guy lol

  • boring video, takes extremely long time to get to the point. make this guy shut up.

  • Blunder

  • @oneadamtwelve86 He's referring to the forced checkmate of Qb8.

  • 10 secs here <---Hobby player...hehe

  • not even 4 seconds and i got it!

  • @chupaconcha2 if you were gonna say the same thing then your the one that doesnt know shit. h7 is not checkmate

  • @MilitaryMan006 i know your comment is like 6 months old, but Qh7 is not checkmate. the king can move to f8.

  • @chupaconcha2

    Jrobi makes plenty of amateurish mistakes, but he very clearly states that Qh7+ was not the best move and proceeds down the Qb8 line. I'm not sure what the confusion is.

  • @MilitaryMan006 i was gonna say the same... i thumbed up your comment so people can see.. with all respect its seems this guy doesnt know shit...
