  • @moneymakerforlife In case you're unable to figure this out for yourself, Qe7 means QUEEN e7, not KING e7. jrobi never mentioned the move; if he did, why don't you try and point out where? Fucking idiot. Clearly, you haven't watched the video at all. Or are you just trolling?

  • @moneymakerforlife It's ironic how you call favoredsongs an idiot, yet you seem lack the basic creativity to think for yourself. First of all, jrobi never "showed how Qe7 will just make things worse". He never even mentioned Qe7, as (I'm assuming) the move didn't occur to him at the time. And I love how, in spite of your obvious frustration, you still failed to come up with a single reason why Qe7 is a bad move. Keep grasping at straws, buddy. :)

  • @cheesehead1285 the bishop on c1 would win it for free and if black captures with the pawn then mate on f7

  • @GameOver647 ... Did you not just watch the video??? The whole idea was that black WOULD take the pawn

  • @iliginjaili The best your opponent can do is try to distract you by attacking the bishop on c4 with Nb2. No threat there, just move Bb2 and then capture the rook. Black hos no good counter play. All you have to be cautious of now is his passed pawn on c3, so just make sure he doesn't get a chance to promote it and you'll have an easy game, with a HUGE advantage ;)

  • @iliginjaili just recapture the bishop with Nxc3, and then after dxc3, Qc3, and he'll only be able to defend the pawn with Qf6, after which you'll play Bg5, attacking the queen, and the queen has nowhere to go other than g6. If he offers up a queen trade with either Nb4 or Ne5 then you'll accept the trade with Bxf6, and after Nxd3, then Bxg7, and he's gonna lose the rook: there's no escape for it xD

  • at 3:00 black can move knight to h6 to defend the f7 square without putting his king or queen in danger....

  • at 1:15, can you take the pawn with the knight??

  • yeah looking at around 2:57 why can't black move the queen to e7? looking at the top two comments I can see this would be a bad move, but can someone please tell me why?

  • Couldn't black play Qf6 at 3:02? Why would black play Ke2 when he has the option of moving the queen?
