Bad white opening... Kasparov would've killed Lasker for that dubious idea!

@duffmasterofpuppets I don't see why resigning means decency and honor. I think anyone should play until the end and hope for a chance. I was playing my brother earlier today and I had a great advantage in material and my pieces were placed much better. At that point, a professional probably would have resigned, but he ended up coming back and winning.

cool video thanks for sharing

@Zergrushing WOW. Chess at this level rarely comes to a checkmate. Most players have the decency and honor to resign when they're defeated, and at this point in the game, black simply has no chance.

Poor explanation, white seems ahead, however is not assured a victory.

@Zergrushing at what point is white not assured a victory?

@wwwChesscom White does not have checkmate, from what I have read thats how you win in chess. From what I can see, white will have a positional and a material advantage, but will not have a definate checkmate, allowing black a chance. Its somewhat bothersome that in a video that you are explaining a particular style, the viewer is forced to analyze all the positions you have shown to understand your point.

@Zergrushing chess is a very complex game with many facets. the goal of this video was to explain some ideas about building an attack against your opponent's castled king, and the two bishop sacrifice. to explain how to win with an extra queen is the subject for a different video, which i can do if you are interested. btw very few chess games end in checkmate: players will usually resign when they are behind significant material, as in the final position of this game.
