BEST move ever!

Brilliant! Best Move ever!

Brilliant, Very possibly the best move ever, shocking his grandmaster opponent!

Out of the French opening the game advances, until rook takes d5 exploiting this nasty pin on the rook. Horsey hop, prodding the queen. Queen h5, hungrily eyeing the rook, however the rook has a deceptively understated escape, and black is already in a lot of trouble. Rook move.

But Black isn’t just playing for a win, he’s playing for enough style points to last a century.
Rook h6 bullying the queen, she ducks. And now the jarring Rook takes bishop, pivoting on this royal fork, if the rook is captured… so instead rook attacks queenie. And now the brilliant, best move ever… Queen g3.

What?! you can take her in 3 different ways! but white just resigns.

You see, black is threatening mate so white MUST address it,
If he takes with the a pawn, he has opened the file to the rooks control, so pony e2 is mate immediately.
If he takes with the f pawn, horsey again steals the show, frightening the king away from his bodyguard, who is surprisingly fragile on his own. Checkmate.
And finally, queen takes, knight check, king over, knight takes queen check, and again both pawns are pinned, this one to the king, and this one to the rook and mate, so king back, check again freeing the knight, and escaping up a clean stallion in the endgame.

Game of Frank Marshall.

Next time before you make a YouTube chess video, take Ritalin or Prozac, sit quietly with yourself by the sea.
Take a deep breath.
Clear yourself of all the craziness and madness and fast talk while screaming.
Be focused.
Come to us, the sane and normal people.
Then, film a new video.

"You can take her in 3 different ways"

[diaboli]

Ah, I I've seen so many shorts on this game and gotham chess' video on it, I've been able to identify the game every single time.

[stopwatcher]

This video came out when pauses between sentences had to be invented yet.

[janyozenith]

Don't mind the comments telling you to slow down. I absolutely love your stile, excitement and "craziness"!
Keep up with the good content.

[Fidnnfu]

Eminem been real quiet since this dropped

[acursedhope]

I love how you call the knight "pony" 😅

[uno-theofficialcardgamebyMatel]

I disagree on that last move tho, for an engine sure it's fine, but as a human playing I think its better to take the rook with the knight instead of repetition because if he takes the knight you win the H pawn and if he takes the rook he has stacked H pawns and after knight to d2 there's no way to stop black from taking the f2 pawn after the fork on e4

[StyBekka]

The knight got demoted again. Brilliant 😂

[viciousscythe]

This man can call the knight a pony or stallion but when I call it a horse people crucify me at the stake

[matejkrause]

Why is this guy talking like Biggus Dickus from Monty Python.

[BCS-IshtiyakAhmadKhan]

That should be brilliant move but stockfish showing it just excellent move.

[justananimeguy]

I’ve seen this before lol and I felt so proud! Love your positivity and energy dude

[sebastianbartolic]

"desceptively understated escape." *Moves 1 square to the left.*

[ahmedrahman]

It's exactly like the Marshal scarifice

[MustardGuy]

Bro's if that's only "best" according to the computer I'm starting to doubt every brilliant I ever got

[dinobonaciclosic]

I got everything except the last part because i can't make out what he says exactly, and why black's rook moving away is such a bad outcome for white

[boyka]

But.. why didn't the rook take the pawn infront of the white rook in the first place.. it was a quick mate?

[Horror_Narrated]

before rook h6 wpuldnt rook takes pawn on f2 be a good move bc then if rook takes back, queen a1 is mate?? idk if im overlooking smth im just a begginer

[haseeb]

Can I just say.. that "what?" Was beautiful😂
