    In this video, IM Alex Astaneh is sharing with you the concept of weak squares. A weak square is a square, where one side has far greater control over that square than the other player. That difference in the level of control can mean that the side who has greater control is able to use it for his or her advantage. Alex will show you how weak squares can be identified and what needs to be considered about them.
    Knowing the principle of weak squares will help you to improve your chess play and to find the right moves and squares.

    I love that you guys are using real boards. It's so much better, maybe it's just me.

    Thanks. I'm less weak and stronger because of you, dear IM Astaneh. And the thing with putting a real chessboard is great. Thanks for your time and sharing. AMIVVB1-12/11/2023.

    nice video !
    but 6:58 , if black exchanges queens then do not see any advantage for white (white will gain two pawns - yes but that's not because of pawn structure but more because his rook being blocked by king , otherwise rook could have easily be brought in to defend pawns) .. would have been great had that path also been covered...

    19:35 what if, Rxh7, followed by Rh8+Mate?

  • @trex576
    @trex576 4 роки тому +1

    19:07 What about 1...Bxf6 exf6 2.gxh5? Isn't black winning a rook?

    • @Chessfactor
      @Chessfactor  4 роки тому

      We are not sure if we understood you correctly. After 1...Bxf6 2.exf6 gxh5 black is not winning a rook because white's pawn on f6 makes it possible to checkmate the black king with 3. Qg5+ Kf8 4.Qg7 mate.

    Is there a difference between weak square and outpost?

      @antonsteinhart3398 3 роки тому

      An outpost can be a weak square but a weak square isn't an outpost ;)

    18:51 Rather than 1.Qh4 , isn't 1.Qh6 is more powerful move (threatening mate on g7) if 1...Bf8 then 2.Qxh7#
    If 1.Qh6 Bxf6 then 2.exf6 (threatening Qg7# also Qxh7+ then Qh8#)
