00:00And also, we will be finding ways of winning against a stronger piece.
00:10Now, let's investigate.
00:12New position, it's worth always taking time.
00:18In theory, if we ignore the concrete aspects of the position, black has an advantage.
00:25It's queen versus rook and bishop.
00:26But as we could see, you know, black queen is slightly awkwardly placed there.
00:31And maybe we can start using tactics.
00:34In this case, many variations of skewer to win the material.
00:40So, the first move, and I think you can guess it now, we attack.
00:45Rook attacks queen.
00:47Now, suddenly, the powerful queen, imagine powerful queen.
00:52The piece that can move everywhere, you know.
00:55Right, left, the center.
00:57Suddenly, it's under attack, and there are not so many options.
01:00If queen takes the rook, then first skewer.
01:06Bishop a3 check.
01:08Queen is lost.
01:08Now, if queen goes to e6, then another skewer, rook a6 check, queen is lost.
01:17Queen goes on d5, another skewer, bishop a3.
01:21Actually, it's a pin, but it's just, you know, we may call it, you know, a variation of skewer.
01:26Queen goes on c4, skewer from the other side.
01:31And if queen goes on h7, then suddenly it's trapped.
01:37It's bishop g6, queen takes, and then we have this skewer, rook a6 check.
01:42So, black has no more options but to take on a2.
01:47But the rook is still pursuing this queen.
01:53Rook takes a4.
01:55Now, if black takes this rook, nasty rook, then b4.
