@fffffvegita8 haha

[@Threepwoot]

Jerry I can immagine how much time its costs to create those videos and therefore i wanna thank you even more for posting so frequently in the last time!
Good Job and greetings from Germany :)

[@joelxavier5446]

Agree, absolutely!

[@sotovo]

@VirtRaM The white rook is defended by the other white rook, so the knight will be captured back at the end of the variation. Capturing the knight is "free."
A knight is roughly worth 3 pawns. A rook 5.
If white were to capture the rook he would be giving two minor pieces for a rook. 6 pawns worth, as opposed to 5. (And losing central control, which is probably more important here.) Quantity and Quality loss. Hope this helps.

@VirtRaM
Hi, I think its here at the beginning:
white knight captures black knight Nxd5 is - 3:0
(not 3:3, black hasn't recaptured it yet and white is up a piece having made the first capture.)
black knight captures queen - 3:9
white knight captures queen - 12:9
black knight captures rook - 12:14
white rook captures knight - 15:14
I do like your move rook e2 though.

[@lordshifu]

Hey one little thing Jerry.. try to flip board towards bottom depend on which pieces won... for example you should have made the black pieces put in the bottom.. that way it makes it us a little closer to feel the ideas n understand it a better way... although its little but I dont know.. it just increases the proficiency that way

[@sava-lakicevic]

@sotovo
white knight captures black knight - 3:3
black knight captures queen - 3:9
white knight captures queen - 9:9
black knight captures rook - 9:14
white rook captures knight - 12:14
Afterwards, the black rook can land itself on E2 + a chance of doubling the rooks on the E file... Where am I wrong?

[@sava-lakicevic]

Dear Jerry, I just wanted to point something out. at 08:12, after the black knight captures the white queen, it could also capture the white rook instead of capturing the white knight. Can you explain to me why did you chose this variation? or you just didn't notice it?

[@elbay2]

@KeithCarunida Hey, you're right!.. I DOES make a big difference come to think of it!...
Good catch, I probably would have looked at the video wondering: "humm.... something's changed (for the more pleasant), but I can't quite put my finger on it..."

[@YtubeUserr]

i was thinking that black's dark Bishop is better placed at e7 than at c5/b6 but the game proved me wrong

[@xdragon2k]

I saw the Qg3 move, however, I didn't see the knight block defense. The rook entry was genius, trying to deflect the queen and attacking at the same time.

[@nrmz22]

very good example of attacking chess...And very entertaining as well. excellent commentary. Thank you for making my chess learning easier.

[@Oakley2256]

I'm going to start a list, Jerry's classic quotes: 'Spite checks'. Can you imagine the table talk. Ra8+, 'out of spite!'

[@nuklearwinter2892]

At 8mins in.. what if white goes F3 to G5? Doesn't that force black to go on defense more to protect the king?

[@nicocola1]

If Kh2, Ng4# also ;) Nice video and thanks man, you're the best, but please post less Ruy Lopez lol

[@76HabeasCorpus]

Another great vid, like many it seems, I spotted Q g3 but missed the deadly rook deflection. Nice.

[@Crooky0]

Wow, an amazing combination to finish the game. I wonder how early he actually saw that rook move.

Hi everyone This is Jerry..my girlfriend go mad when she hear it!

[@dumpnchase]

Great game. Thanks for the video. Top Notch Analysis.

[@kirdot2011]

I dont play the game of chess `cause its too racist !

[@Karjalol]

really really nice. Is this a blitz game ?..

[@nataschmidtt]

this why i love bishops more than knights :p

[@xDirectJABx]
