@gianttree - can you expand further on the best way to respond to 6. ...Ng4!? I haven't found much info online on how best to play against this move.
-
Why does everyone post the same line when we can clearly see gianttree's, posted two years ago, at the top? lol
-
After 10. f3, Ne3 11. Qd2, Bxd4, white is in a lot of trouble.
-
Just one mistake.
Instead of Ng4-e5? Better continuation is Ng4- e3. Qd1-d2 or Qd1-d3, THen you go Bxd4, Qxd4?, Nxc2+, winning a queen.
-
I like it!
-
Ne3 is winning, if the queen moves then Bxd4, wins a piece since if white recaptures then Nc2+ winning the queen!
-
"After f3 the game is not important?. That pretty much misses the point. This is a nice game in that it highlights a number of key themes that black uses in different sicilians. Also, ne3 doesn't appear to be "winning" as white just moves the queen up a square, retakes with the rook and castles long. Not great, but white doesn't do that well in the actual continuation either.

Very high quality of play here on a blitz game, I enjoyed the video and thanks for it.

Hi,
I know this 6. ...Ng4!?line quite well and therefore I want to give a comment:
The ending is quite nice, but considering the fact that your opponent made the horrible mistake 10. f3 (??) the game is not important.
Your 10. ...Ne5 (??) is again a huge mistake,
10. ...Ne3! is simply winning. 11. Qd2 Bxd4 and white will not be happy any more.
12. Qxd4 fails to 12. ...Nxc2+, winning the Queen, and otherwise white's position is also desperate.
Next time you can punish 10.f3 easier ;-)
