  • Hey Sean - What do you mean by 'He said in Post mortum that he wouldnt take the a7 pawn' ? Just wondering :-)

  • @SMCB285

    Hi Buddy! Post Mortem is when the players talk about the game after it's finished. Jack and I were discussing a few different courses the game could have taken - and he said he wouldn't have taken the a7 pawn with his queen. How's things going with Fritz, any luck analysing games?

  • Did you actually see any of these lines during the game, such as the Qxb6 line?? I fing that hard to believe

  • I saw to about Kf8 or thereabouts. My feeling was that there would be enough activity to generate good play, or at least big complications - and in the long, positional run I would have my centre pawns as a plan b. Led to an interesting one anyway! But as I sai din the video, whether we would have found the right moves or not is a whole other story, and pretty unlikely - Fritz is about 300 Elo points stronger than both Jack and me.

  • That's quite a can of worms you opened up with that rook sac.

  • Agreed, but thankfully it was me who caught the fish!

  • @SeanGGodley Ok cool :) And no, no luck :( The computer still isnt doing anything :( I think I might delete it and redownload it again. :-)

  • @SeanGGodley Fair enough. I would have mean amazed if you saw any of those sharp lines after Kf8 lol

  • Hi Buddy, thanks for your insightful comments - yes, you're 100% correct. Exchange sacs are lots of fun but they should be used with caution!

    Nostrovia,

    Sean

  • but I should have looked a bit further to Qc7.

    Very instructive!

  • I was hoping instinctively that you'd play that rook sac when you started analyzing the bishop or knight to c4 variations. I watch alot of Kingscrushers vids as well, and if you watch his vids, which I think you do, you know how much he loves his exchange sacs. But this vid makes a very good point that those exchange sacs, while flashy, and sometimes powerful, need to be made with deep consideration. I didn't calculate further than Nxe4, which I thought would be more than enough compensation
