00:00And maybe we can start using tactics, in this case, many variations of skewer, to win the material.

00:08So the first move, and I think you can guess it now, we attack.

00:14Rook attacks, queen.

00:16Now suddenly the powerful queen, imagine powerful queen, the piece that can move everywhere, you know, right, left, the center.

00:26Suddenly it's under attack and there are not so many options.

00:28If queen takes to rook, then first skewer, bishop a3 check, queen is lost.

00:39Now if queen goes to e6, then another skewer, rook a6 check, queen is lost.

00:46Queen goes on d5, another skewer, bishop a3, actually it's a pin, but it's just, you know, we may call it, you know, a variation of skewer.

00:54Queen goes on c4, skewer from the other side.

01:01And if queen goes on h7, then suddenly it's trapped.

01:06It's bishop g6, queen takes, and then we have this skewer, rook a6 check.

01:10So black has no more options but to take on a2.

01:18But the rook is still pursuing this queen.

01:21Rook takes a4.

01:22Now if black takes this rook, nasty rook, then bishop e8, another skewer.

01:31So black has no other way but to go back on g8, but then rook attacks again.

01:36And no more a2 square is available.

01:38The only square left is queen h7.

01:40And then we finish the game with another blow, bishop g6.

01:46So it just shows you geometry, which is a very important element.

01:51Somehow it's difficult for humans to appreciate the way geometry works.

01:57But as I already said...

01:59...

02:00.
