      @LyricsOfALifetime 5 років тому

      Excellent question! I'm not using an engine, so I'm not sure, but in my humble (and limited) opinion, it's because after Rook to A7, you're threatening both the bishop on B7 AND the pawn on F7, and there's no way to save both. You COULD capture the bishop with the knight right away with a discovered check, but as they say, sometimes the threat is greater than the execution. By capturing the bishop, you no longer have the Rook captures on F7 threat, and the knight would be slightly misplaced on B7.

      If you mean e5, then yes, that's also the move I came up with. I think Duda blundered in time trouble.

    He is arguably well deserved it, not only because of the point. But also because he able to defeat duda, whereas magnus only able to draw yesterday.

    If rook B3, why not play rock takes A6 and win the Bishop? If the knight on C5 recaptures your rook, then the rook on B3 is left undefended? I am a novice, am I missing a subtle tactic why this would not work?

    Amagador, i've been watching you a lot and your vids are great. One question why on 17:59 not a e5 from black - so blacks bishop protects f7? ( and if after white takes fxe5, Bxe5 pinnign the knight to the rook seems legit) :)
