At 17:39 it looks like black might also try Bxg5 which stops Qxh7#, but there is still a mate on the board.

I agree the sound quality is not great.  Blackbeard's mate? Blackbird's mate?

Very instructional though... I just had to rewind a few times to catch what was being said.

I view lectures from various chess sites. That being said I would like to add that you are one of the main reasons I am a member of this site. I look forward to more lectures from you. Thanks

Most recording programs have what is called a compressor. This squeezes the volume of the audio all into one level, which can help a lot with any listening problems people may have. Another processing fix could be "normalizing," if your recording program has that. A good condensor microphone and a pop filter would also help a lot.

 

great video, thank you for the great info!

Extremely interesting, but the sound is horrible.  Please find out why and fix the problem for future lectures.  Otherwise good job!!

Excellent video, but the sound quality is sub-standard.  That needs to be fixed.

Right, what he said ;-)

The first one is Boden's mate, the second is Blackburne's mate.
