In this position, this is often the cause of major frustration with my students because there are weaknesses.
The last move ready to destroy us in this position.
That's what makes this kind of tricky.
If we move the night here, we've got a weakness of loss.
We lose the queen.
This is really unfortunate.
If we take on ESX, you know, we go into this pin.
It seems as though there might be nothing here because if we take, then they take our queen or isn't.
And if we take on G7, then they just take her.
And what have we achieved?
If we now take they don't have to take the night to go into this mighty Folke.
Sure.
If they sorry if they took the bishop with the night then there's a mighty fork in his.
But what if they just played this.
We've just blown the peace.
It seems we're liable in all of these free variations that we're kind of inhibited by our own instead
of the last move.
But in one of the paths there is something interesting.
Which one of those free paths was the something super interesting?
I'll make it easier for you.
It's in Bishop ESX, so it looks as though we're going straight into a kind of soft pen against the
queen that it's not his pen.
But have we got any forcing moves if we prioritize forcing those?
What can we come up with in this position if I give you five seconds, pause video?
OK, it turns out we can actually undermine the opponent's position, which rotates G7, this G7 bishop,
as a supporting kind of piece of --.
So we've kind of weakened Eighty-six.
So we're gaining access to key squares through this process of removal of the defender, as it's sometimes
called, any removal of the defender or just moving the defender via the flash and gives us access to
squares which we didn't have before.
So it's a bit like waiting until the last vote.
It's a bit like telecom and squares access the squares generally wins you games.
So here we've got access to ASX.
Now this is bad news for black.
If King takes then 1986, we're -- king and queen and we've undermined each sex.
So the thing is, if nighttimes.
Yeah, we just take on eighty-six and then here has to resign.
I hope you can spot why we've got a common Schoenman, age seven now, which coordinate, you know,
the night in Queena coordinated with Queen Me.
The night also stopped the escape of the black king.
So this is a nice chat, mate, to be aware of.
In fact, if you get situations where any pawns of the opponents cancelled King and chips away, you
should be on even greater lookout generally for checkmates ideas and forcing your way through to a checkmate.
So anyway, yeah, yeah, the initial position is like we're kind of hamstrung.
We're stuck because of our weaknesses of the last move.
That weapon is a two edged weapon.
We can use it against the opponent.
Well, if we can play our cards right in situations which look tricky like this, we can inflict kind
of weaknesses on the opponents taking out G7 at the right time of the bishops.
I guess this is the right time to take out G7.
It just breaks the opponent's position down.
That's just how we've undermined age sex.
So, yeah, this this example, I just want to emphasize again, this is really about the processes.
So sometimes you get situations like this, which is that really cause frustration.
It's like there's tons of weaknesses.
The last move which set traps for us.
But we need to turn that weapon around, you know, to inflict it on the opponent, get them to have
weaknesses of the last move.
Gaining access to key sensitive squares.
Crush your opponent with those squares that you've won access to.
OK, so much.
