    Typical Botez Gambit Speedrun
    "Lets sac"
    "I need to clog the center"
    "I have terrible pawn structure"
    "This guy knows what he is doing"
    "I blundered, I am gonna lose the game"
    "I'm gonna need to move fast"
    "BUT NOW HE ALLOWS ME TO DO THIS"
    "Now I have 2 horseys and 2 bishops and 2 rooks for the queen"
    "I gonna win the game"

      @naphackDT 2 роки тому +10

      @@han-huo here is my limited chess knowledge:
      Trading for an active bishop at least gives some tempo compensation. Trading for an inactive rook in the corner leaves the active bishop in play while also putting the Queen on a strong diagonal.
      Usually, the reason for killing an undeveloped rook in the corner would be that you then proceed to trade material and transition into a winning endgame with a material advantage. But Hikaru wants to trade his queen. Material is irrelevant once you are down a queen, everything is about tempo and position.
