Featured is a sharp chess miniature between Grandmaster Arseniy Nesterov and LeelaKnightOdds. Playing Black without the king’s knight, LeelaKnightOdds chooses the Sicilian Kan, Wing Attack, in this 3+2 blitz game. Remarkably, Leela begins with nine consecutive pawn moves! At that early stage, it’s already clear the Grandmaster’s extra knight exists but does not truly live.

I’m a self-taught National Master in chess out of Pennsylvania, USA who was introduced to the game by my father in 1988 at the age of 8. The purpose of this channel is to share my knowledge of chess to help others improve their game. I enjoy continuing to improve my understanding of this great game, albeit slowly.
