Hey great video Matt, I have a question, when you were going over the game Mongraydian vs. Medley, why did Mongraydian play Nge7, why didn’t he play Qd7? or he could have just offered the trade and would have to move his rook…

After Nh6 whites plays Bxh6 and since black cant recapture because of mate he will be down a piece.

Right. A knight on h6 is a rather shady character, not someone I would trust to defend Black’s most vulnerable square (f7)

Near the end, you said that the queen has perpetual check on blacks king. Why would black not just move his knight to h6 rather then block with his bishop?

what i like to do against the Ruy Lopez is after Bb5, either f5 where exf5, and e4, where the knight has to move back to it’s starting position. Also, u can play Bc5 which you can comment back if you’d like to know this trap.
