Check out Ben's Chessable courses here! www.chessable.com/author/BenF... GM Ben Finegold lectures on chess blunders made by famous grandmasters.
This lecture was recorded on July 28, 2021, at the Chess Club and Scholastic Center of Atlanta (CCSCATL) in Roswell, Georgia. Why am I posting this now? It's for channel consolidation and Ben is busy at the World Open. It was originally posted on the CCSCATL channel on August 4th, 2021. Now it's here. Suspicious.

Not resigning is so true. You know how many games I won after blundering my queen? Often when you blunder your queen at the 1,000 level your opponent gets so comfortable that there is a very real chance they’ll blunder their own queen away in a couple of moves. Another thing that happens often is they win your queen and then they think “oh boy this means I can checkmate” and they think waaaay too long trying to find some mate and you still win the game on time.

@KeystoneHeavy58 Жыл бұрын

That Bacrot blunder is something else. First, he didn't even take a pawn or anything, it's just 9 points of material down the drain in one move. Second, its not even a move that forces black to pause and wonder if there is some tactic, because he made that move with check and black only has 4 legal moves to consider. It's not a check with your opponents only legal move being to deliver mate in 1, but it's as perfect a blunder as you'll ever see in a GM game.

I think genuinely this is a position where (up to about 1600ish) the stronger you are as a player, the harder it is to find the very simple fork Moving the queen back to it's starting square is so counter-intuitive positionally that your chess-brain just filters it out as a possibility I think :)

@@MrFrazerz when you develop strategic play, you're more likely to focus on other things, especially when opponents don't often hang pieces. Having loose pieces should alert to tactical likelihoods, but "gifts" need that change of thought process or they often are spurned
