      at 14:56 pawn takes pawn leads to bishop taking pawn. Free development for white. Also you allow them take a piece that you have moved twice by moving once.

    The pawn on C4 is not taken down right away as it would allow white to develop his bishop on a preferred spot in one move, so when the bishop moves and then the pawn is captured, it needs another move to occupy the position of desire, handing down the tempo to black

    14:48 we should only take the pawn after the light square bishop moves, that way the light square bishop would have to move again to capture back our pawn hence wasting 2 moves for the same piece and losing tempo.

  • @Koutn21
    @Koutn21 21 день тому

    The reason why you don't want to capture the pawn on c4 before he moves the bishop is that if you take it too early, white gains a tempo by developing his bishop while capturing the pawn. If he moves the bishop to let's say e2, if you capture the pawn on c4, he has to move the bishop a second time.
    Hope this helped!
