Nice pfp

sacrificing the queen or mostly any piece for a checkmate is always a brilliant move

@@justsomeprofile4969 yup, but it wasn't like that ~2years ago and that's why people still think "brilliant move" is cool. it isn't anymore, at least not as much and it's pretty common ;/ i prefer the old "rules" of a brilliant move for sure. it actually had to be "brilliant", not just visually sacrifising a piece...

You just have to give up material (even for mate in 1) and it’ll say it’s brilliant. I think it’s to get beginners to buy premium by stroking their egos with it

I think after the line you saw, Bd3+ forces the king away from the defense of the bishop on f1?

@@ElijahStormblessed thanks!

He probably is expert on using the search functions. Like writing sequence bishop B1, queen C1 or something like that

@@jonnenne Yeah, good point. He also undoubtedly had a pretty insane chess memory, as most high level grandmasters seem to have.

he remembers the idea and recreates the sequence on a board after which chessbase engine gives you the games that have that setup.

wow thanks guys! @Jonnenne @Jim Smith @Aeradill

Just to elaborate a bit more...you can search a database in Chessbase by pretty much any criteria: names or dates, positions, material count or even specific moves. To find these examples he will have searched by position. You just place a king, bishop and queen in the final checkmate arrangement around the three fianchetto pawns and it returns all the games that featured such a position. You can tell it to include horizontal and vertical mirror images (ie: where the position occured on the opposite side of the board or with opposite colours) or even exclude games which featured some other specific criteria. I have a love/hate relationship with Chessbase - it's slow, clunky, unintuitive and horribly dated...but the search function and basic database management tools are brilliant.

e4 e5 is a landmine for black in general and that's why I don't play it. There are so many openings with so many dangerous sidelines in which you can get blown off the board. I am also 1800 btw

If black goes Ng6 then white can take with their e5 knight…even if they take with the bishop black can’t go from Kd6 to Kf6 in one move…and if he could it wouldn’t be a fork after bxg6 because the knight defends the bishop and the pawn defends the knight

yes can someone explain

Yeah, but the rook doesn't have to capture the pawn. It can go back to defend or the queen can capture the pawn instead (assuming you mean c6). Plus this way you get the passed a pawn.

It's good to do lots of easy puzzles to facilitate quick pattern recognition and there's no harm in having a timed/competitive element. If it feels more like a game than work that has to be a bonus. Of course, it's also crucial to solve more difficult puzzles and work on proper calculation/visualisation skills - I use chesstempo and books/studies for that - but I believe both types of puzzles are helpful.
