Glad to see a vid w/the speedrun...previous one was a while ago.
Love these speedrun videos!! Thank you!!
in the nimzowitsch defence you ran into the greek gift but a version that doesn't work. Nxd6, Qxd6, Bxh7, Kxh7, Ng5+, Kg6! but if Kg8 then black is lost. how do you know this position is ok for black? i'm always paranoid when white has this piece configuration and there is not some obvious defence like a knight being able to come to f6 to guard the mate or a bishop being able to guard the h7 square at the end of the line. also, some of the positions with Kg6 are winning for white and some are winning for black. i guess the only way to know is too look at concrete variations. as white i think its easier if you a pawn on e5 or have not castled so you can start throwing the h-pawn down the board.
Tbh in this case I did not even consider the possibility. Like you said, if you can guard h7 with for example a knight on f6 or bishop on f5, that usually refutes it easily. Otherwise you just have to calculate. One factor that makes Black's chances of survival better in this position is White is lacking development and can't really use any pieces besides the queen in the attack.
