I disagree slightly. He gives kids 2 minutes to solve a puzzle, but then resolves it after barely one minute because one kid already found it. And at 19:27 he does not resolve the puzzle since the queen does not have to take on f8. He should do fewer puzzles, but do them properly.

Dude: I literally thought the teacher was kaparov. The title of the video literally says Kasparov! I was like: wow! they got Kasparov to teach the game of the famous queen gambit game played by himself, as the white! Plus, the teacher dude literally looks just how you would imagine Kasparov would have looked today.

+Hitendra Kishanchandani What I liked most about this particular lecture is that he actually patiently answers all of the kids' questions. Var even showed the possible winning idea for that game with 2 pieces up when I thought he was short on time and would excuse himself to move on to the next part of the lecture. To be honest, I always felt bad for a kid asking Ben Finegold a question and getting rejected with some harsh joke (big fan of GM Finegold otherwise)

about the last puzzle,what if u put rook c8 then he takes it and u take with bishop then put rook a8 and its inevitable checkmate with bishop f5 unless he puts rook a6 and then u take his rook then u have 2 rooks advantage which i think is better than the other alternatives cause in the first occasion he might just eat ur bishop with knight and then u can take his rook but only have 1 rook advantage.

At 21'28" I believe the best move for black is Rc8. If white plays everything right white will still win, but it will be delayed several moves, but there's a chance that white will blunder the game, such as KxB3.
