If Black plays Qa5 instead of ba, it never comes down to these desperate ends. Like Bd2 Bd7 Bd3 Qb6...White has good compensation, but no direct attack
4:02 ... Hello! I play this variation on a regular basis and do a bit of theory on this variation. But in practice, I recently encountered that strong players (IM, FM) in the variation 1.e4 e6 2.Nf3 d5 3.e5 c5 4.b4 cxb4 5.a3 bxa3 6.d4 Nc6 7.c3 Bd7 8.Bd3 8...b5!? (with the idea of further b4, undermining the base of the pawn chain and threatening the light-squared bishop with an exchange after Nb4) and if 9.Bxb5?! , then after 9...Nxe5! White gets a dubious (bad) position with no compensation for the pawn, as there are further exchanges of important pieces for White. 8...b5 9.Ng5 - doubtful because of 9...b4!. Maybe 8.Nxa3!? avoiding b5 right away?
I play wing gambit regular on serious games too. In your variation 8...b5 there are like three moves: 9.Bxb5/Nxa3/0-0. All of then are ok. My favorite is 9.Bxb5 Nxe5 10.Nxe5! Bxb5 11.c4! with the idea 11...dc 12.0-0 f.e. Nf6 13.Nxa3 is now with tempo on bb5
Around the 7 minute mark, it looks like you're missing the the best move for black, Nf6 which the engine says allows black to hold the position and maybe have an advantage?
Hey i used to see your videos in 2014 i guess Colorado gambit series I must say your voice us the same. I never knew how you looked like.. such a pleasure to know you still make videos on chess . GJ you’re awesome! I left chess though..
c3. one line like: 1.e4 e6 2.Nf3 d5 3.e5 c5 4.b4 c4 5.c3 a5 6.b5 a4 (to prevent whites a4 and to isolate pb5) 7.d3 (or d4) cd 8.Bxd3 Bc5 9.Nd4 you have a strong knight on d4. Its very positional, slowly attacking play
@@GJChess It's the same mating attack, basically. White's dark-squared Bishop fights on Kingside just by sitting there, and the stinger in the tail is the long-postponed capture on a3.
