    what an absolute master piece of a game and then to top it off the 200th win. Congrats Eric!

    I've been dipping in and out of this series since its inception, but from around 2000 elo I've found myself almost impatiently awaiting each video! I'm finding it incredibly helpful for my own chess to follow along with Eric's thought process, he has a special talent for communicating these things so clearly.
    I'll be looking forward to the next video in the speed run, but do make take your time Eric and don't overwork yourself!

    I was literally going to complain that we have not seen a speedrun for almost 2 weeks now, but I will no longer be doing that.

    smothered mate was awesome !!! what a 200 game.. epic one. Milestone

  • @jamesduggan7200

    Yes, lovely attack there. In my humble opinion, expert level players always under-estimate the risks involved with pawn to h3. In fact, I've seen several masters make the error against GMs. Really a very very pretty attack - great way to reach 200

    On 6:33 there was a nice opportunity to win a minor piece: ...Qxf2 bxf2 e3 attacking the white's dark square bishop. If white doesn't take but moves the bishop away e2 forks whites light square bishop and rook. Rook to e1 doesn't stop black from taking on exf1, promoting to a rook or queen pinning whites rook with it's king preventing it from rxe8#. Thanks for the great content, really enjoying the speedrun series!

      That final pin is chef's kiss

    • @matt_main
      @matt_main Годину тому

      Isn’t the flaw with this idea that after e3 attacking the dark square bishop, white plays Rde1, immediately making the pin against the pawn and threatening Rxe8#?? Or am I missing something. Your assumption is that the rook will wait until e2 to make the move to e1, but as you correctly say, it will then have pinned itself to its king once the pawn captures with promotion. But an immediate pin after e3 kiboshes the whole idea.

    When I saw the title I assumed it was going to be a Scandi like the Peruvian immortal game. It was a pretty mate.

    It's only considered a sacrifice if you win. If you lose, it's called "blundering" and "moronic."

    7:14 wouldn’t Qa2+, Kc1, QxQf2, BxQf2, E3, Bg1 (just an example because it doesn’t mater where the bishop goes), E2 be a fork on the white bishop and rook ?

    • @arnoudh6203
      @arnoudh6203 2 години тому

      Don't think DSB would move, instead Re1 would pin and win the pawn. (Hanging rook/checkmate threat on e8)
