    "Black is forced to sacrafice"... that's what we non-gms call "losing a piece"

    Great game! Thanks Simon for choosing the French Defence! (More please :P)
    (At 23:56 if white plays Re2, it doesn't work because of Qd5)

    Simon! This is a fantastic game and very exciting to watch! Quick question for you or anyone reading this, at 10:44 after Na5, can white fork the knights on this move and play b4 here?

    • @DucktailsBartendingBH
      @DucktailsBartendingBH 6 років тому +1

      Ben Pickup if this was played now black has nice attack with Nc4 and Qxc5. White idea was simplifying and forcing black to play Nc6 instead of Nc4 after the fork. As Simon said the game shouldve ended with perpetual check.

    • @nofanfelani6924
      @nofanfelani6924 6 років тому +2

      not only an attack, black can also regain the piece by after Nc4 if white take the knight on c5, black will retake with the pawn on b6 hitting the knight and followed by d4! forking the knight and bishop

    • @BenPickup
      @BenPickup 6 років тому

      Ah! Gotcha, thanks :) i guess Nxe6 could be played after black recaptures on c5 with the pawn but it all looks better for black anyway. Good spot

    I hope you're really considering making that short DVD about the French. I already have the old one and it's very instructive.

    17:40 I thought 32. Qf8 looked very effective. It threatens mate in 1! It looks impossible to escape unless white can find a checkmate or perpetual.
    The only problem is that the pawn on f5 ends up being loose and black can take it after a few checks - that's why Qd5, Qd7 and f6 are better moves. I also thought 32. Qa3 would be a decent try but it gives black time to use the knight and put on more pressure.

    Simon, I have a genuine suggestion: I wouldn't refer to your instructional courses/products as "DVD's" as this is an antiquated format that, in my opinion, sounds quite peculiar nowadays, especially in the UA-cam-sphere. That is unless, of course, they are only available in DVD format (but I believe they're also available as downloadable mp4's?).

    Hou Yifan's rating is currently 2680, not 2618, I think, or was that her rating at the time of this match?

    • @IaKhanic
      @IaKhanic 6 років тому

      After B4, Kc4, pxC5, pxC5 and the black king is super exposed and black queen would simply go to b6, then the back rank.

    I don't understand why people want to compare Hou Yifan with Judith Polgar... If she was in the same league she would have already been 2750+elo 8 years ago (considering the current elo inflation compared to the time she was playing). The only thing they have in common is that they are women... Other than that Judith was a top super GM, Hou Yifan "just" a top GM, who can eventually have a good performance here and there vs the top10/15 but no reason to believe that suddenly she'd become as good as them.

    • @PhilNPrice
      @PhilNPrice 6 років тому

      Judit Polgar is one of my four favorite players of all time (Morphy, Tal, Fischer are the others) so on the one hand I see what you're saying. But based on the games I've seen, Hou Yifan does have something in common with all of these, including Polgar: she is a relentless attacker. Sac, sac, mate...or be mated. It's a really exciting way to play and there don't seem to be that many players at her level (or above) who play that way. I like to think it's how Simon would play if he were even better than he is. Have you seen Hou's queen sac game from a year or so ago? It really does look like something Polgar would do.

    • @warnaoh
      @warnaoh 6 років тому

      Yes i've seen it and sorry but i wasnt that impressed for two reasons : she was against an IM (compared to Kasparov sacking a queen vs Kramnik it's pretty lackluster), plus nowadays with the computers players actually don't take risk when they do that, they already "know" it's ok. Btw the second reason is also why Caruana vs Nakamura didn't impress me that much : someone in Caruana's team "discovered" thanks to the engine that 2 knights on the center were actually strong enough to justify the queen sacrifice.
      In short: when Tal sacrificed a queen he was taking risks and the idea came from his own brain, nothing in common with today.

    Simon please pronounce Hou different, it genuinely sounds like "hoe" and I dont think she wants to be called like that :D I think most commentators pronounce her name like the word "who".
