Beating 2500+ GM In Just 15 Moves With A Queen Sacrifice Is Awesome

In this video I am covering a game played between Russian chess Grandmaster Igor Kurnosov and Uzbekistani chess Grandmaster Marat Dzhumaev. In the opening (Pirc defense) Uzbekistani player is making a mistake and Kurnosov is managing to exploit that mistake successfully by going for several sacrifices! First he is sacrificing his rook on e6 square and then is offering is queen thus quickly forcing his opponent to resign on move 15! Pirc defense goes down very quickly! In the end of the video as usual you can solve the daily puzzle!
