Hi there.
In this lecture, we see the so-called Chinese Immortal game.
So this is Leo Wednesday against Jan Heinz Donna in 1978, the Olympiad, round eight.
So E four from Wednesday we have the six D full of sex and night c3g sex.
So the pits defense the thing Kenzo does in its own overheads the dance my weaknesses could become a
liability if this is exchanged off.
In general, we have an aggressive move G four blank plays.
h6h3 we have c5d5 black consoles and now very, very direct play H for going for the checkmate.
It seems in this game, not even castling queenside First, just without further ado, h four we have
E6 and now g five black here helps y activate the rook on h one black played h thanks g five.
This makes things slightly worse than perhaps they needed to be 9h7 offering a pawn here.
If the poll isn't taken?
No.
Of H five there's no tax g five and actually black might actually be okay here with equality.
So let's assume G takes h six Bishop st C free B tanks, Queen F six.
This position is still in its favour, however.
So in the game though, this does make things a lot worse.
It creates the potential for very concrete mating threats and manoeuvres such as Queen D free to H free
potentially, when the bishop isn't looking to just make on H seven.
We have 98 Queen D free.
So the clear and imminent danger of Queen h3e takes D five.
So covering H three right now won't place her in 1965.
An alternative which is aggressive is Queen G French.
Then just making a pawn sac here.
If f5g tanks, nine tanks, queen tanks.
G thinks this is actually in its favour.
Queen could park on G two her keeping that pin on the G7 Bishop and for example here every night takes
E4 has a very promising position here with this G phone.
So for example, point G five.
It's just very scary stuff.
Coast in Queensland is even possible.
Bishop takes G7, takes away any threat there.
Queen 65 The Queen 81 is homeless because of King Veto.
So this position is just points to zero up.
So that is a way of playing it.
To play Queen for a major thing about 1965 is played.
We have 96 and now Queen Jeffrey hair.
Bishop e thinks if f6 in this position might have three five.
There's no change for what is to care about the G6 pawn.
This is very difficult to defend.
If takes 19th G6 this position, Queen H four is quite vicious attack in its own right.
For example, Bishop takes the five queen H seven shank.
King of seven.
Can you see how if we have this position, how we proceed?
Get more team players into the attack.
Not just Queen and knights.
How can we do that?
How can we introduce another team member?
Teamwork.
We're covering some escape squads.
So we play rook for try and get a piece involves another piece involved.
97, another piece involved.
Look at this teamwork check.
And all of a sudden black is going to be collapsing off to sea for if E-4 drops, that looks horrendous.
If Bishop seven in fact, here there's another point here we don't have to even take on E5.
That's a great tactical point we can make here.
Which is 95.
If Knight takes E5, Rook takes F7 and things are falling apart.
Now Queen size, G8, shank, Queen size, G7, and we end up being material up.
It's just a vicious continuation, just a fictional continuation.
Just to show you some of the resources, how we can pull the team into the attack in these situations,
especially if G6 goes.
But anyway, Bishop E6 was played and we have now Queen H four with the direct threats of Checkmate
F five to give the King a seven.
But now yeah, Y actually welcomes that Queen H seven King f7.
So what is the point?
Hey, you think there's actually a beautiful combination here that exists?
Which makes this an immortal game.
So a chuckle tracks even the most outrageous ones.
So, okay, the the attacking build up, you could say, well, hold on, these guys were even news.
This one's even blocked.
So this isn't a full team effort.
Sometimes you get attacking games where there's a full team effort, but these guys are asleep, yet
one has enough hair.
There are pieces which can influence the opponent's king safety.
So what is the most outrageous track you can think of?
And it's probably the solution here.
So I'm about to show for 200 points.
Queen size G6 check.
Vicious.
So King thinks otherwise.
Essex will drop it.
King goes back, for example.
So King cites Bishop H5 five, Jack King, 87.
And now we want to take away escaped squares like gates.
So.
Bishop A7 check Bishop sex.
And now the clever point Black's given G seven is at the end of the story.
Then.
Hang on, have we fluffed our attack If we play Rook takes H6?
Isn't the King G7 and isn't the opponent laughing?
Not for too long.
So we've got another choice here.
A choice of checks.
Sometimes we've got to get the right checks.
Absolutely Got to get the right checks.
There's a clear blue sky check.
Clear winner.
What check is that check?
All the checks.
Be discerning about the checks.
Okay.
Bout to reveal G6 check.
And actually, this member of the team is being employed now.
It's only this guy that has been asleep all throughout this King G7.
But on the other hand, you could say, well, the opponent's rook, the counterpart Queen's rook,
is also asleep.
Anyway, Bishop takes age six, check ends the game.
If the king goes to H eight, Bishop takes F ain't check.
Queen H four is the only legal move rotates h4 is checkmate.
Yeah.
Okay.
You could also say this guy wasn't involved.
But anyway.
Yeah.
So end of game off to Bishop.
Thanks h sex.
So a very direct attacking game.
It shows you can have a lot of fun winning on the chessboard.
If you're going to spend a whole day playing chess, isn't it nice not just to get a point on the scoreboard,
but also create a beautiful game that you can show friends and relatives share on social media nowadays.
So maybe that makes, you know, the the one day chess format.
It gives you maximum chance to see if you can get away with sacrificing a few pieces spectacularly.
The time investments to create beautiful games to share is.
My enjoyment of chess is largely linked to attacking chess.
What a game.
I hope you enjoyed this as much as me.
That's very much.
