    Great video as always Jerry. I do have a question though -
    In your tale of the tape how are you getting an "accuracy %" in what looks to be the lichess SF analysis?

    I've been watching your videos for over a decade and ive never heard you use the term "boomerang" for that tactic. I think every chess player has their own name for it haha. Axel Smith calls it a lifeline tactic. I call it a "rope-a-dope."

  • @MoonBurn13
    @MoonBurn13 7 місяців тому +1

    I had a configuration exactly similar to the “boomerang” in this game come up a year or two ago, Jerry: The Queens were attacking each other with only my Knight interposing. I could have taken White’s KNP with my Knight, which would then still be in position to recover the material in case of QxQ. I missed it! And of course, saw it only moments after making my move.
    Maybe you should offer a chess neologism “boomerang” to the vocabulary, Jerry.

      Hi Steve. I’m not familiar enough with chessable to recommend any courses. Viewing slower chess content on UA-cam with rapid time controls can be very beneficial.

    Carlsen is the epitome of the Alekhin quote, you have to beat him three times: opening, middle game, and if you fail those two, there is the endgame.
