The bishop sacrifice on h7 is one of the most commonly seen sacrifices in chess and it's very important to know when to use it and also when not to use it. If you are familiar with the setup you will always be ready if the opportunity arises.

  • "Stop second guessing me and my videos" lmao I almost chocked on my drink when you said that :D Good for you Jerry tell those noobs to stop their nonsense :) Nice vid, hopefully we see more vids of more complicated sacrifices, maybe also with creative ways to defend against hack attacks when you're the one on the receiving end ;)

  • He got mad for a second, "Stop second guessing me in my videos." LOL!

  • LOL stop second guessing me in my videos! hahahhaha

  • @Immortalassassin1 That's Kevin. You should know this because when the video starts he's like "Hey everyone, this is KEVIN from blah blah blah and today we're gonna be going over blah blah blah".

  • If after b x h7 if he doesnt take bishop you do not retreat bishop you play q h5 with the threat of bg6 check then qh7 mate this is also known as the greek gift sacrifice

  • KEVIN THE KING HAS 12 MOVES YOU DIDN'T COVER THEM ALL!

  • It would be EPIC for us chess fans if we could see a battle like

    Kevin x Jerry

  • I started with the giocco piano, or really the italian game, and have learned the majority of what i know from these videos. Primarily kevin and chesswebsite videos, but its good to watch as many as you can. I dont know how people can second guess these moves, since youll find that the theme behind them is whats important. Not memorization, but concepts. Um..In other words, thanks :)

  • your videos are the best i can find thankyou very much!

  • Greek gift ftw.

  • 5:34 HE CALLED THE QUEEN A HE :O!
