    At 16:25 he says "I don't even want to look at Nxf4... I can guarantee you this is not a very good move" and I was just so confused because I couldn't see why... looks like a free pawn without a ton of downside.
    I plugged it into an analysis board and the computer says it's the best move. Maybe it's an engine thing, but I wonder what looks so bad about it. If anyone wants to let me know feel free.
    Anyway, still my favorite chess content creator.

    @KianOntong13 4 місяці тому +1

    at 32:52 im not sure if you address it later in the video in the analysis but your recommendation always used to be c4 and then to develop the BKnight to C3 to give black the option of bishop F5 before developing your g knight so that black cannot pin it immediately, and then if they wish to pin it they would lose a tempo. I remember the first fantasy game with Nf6 going something like this one but then you discovered going c4 and playing it like a better alekhine is simply better for white?

    • @faznaz7455
      @faznaz7455 4 місяці тому

      True, there’s 2 different setups that white can use, usually for blitz anything with quick development is much easier to play.

It's exceptionally popular, it's more popular than the 4 knights even on lichess. Even though it's not completely sound you've done plenty of really amazing vids on unsound openings like the Englund, would love to see one for the Center Fork Trick

    I don't know if you read the comments, but how do you decide if a pawn is worth losing? Often in the games you'll let go of a pawn or two while attacking, which could result in a really bad endgame if the attack fails.

    Since the gap in player quality is this big, I think Danya could be a little less harsh in his comments on questionable moves sometimes haha.
