As to my post of the engine lines, yes there is a lot there indigestible in total, but informative in that it provides 5 candidate moves to play through. Also instructive is how Be5 13. f4 causes a collapse as all 5 lines at +6 or better. This is pretty clear conclusion, the reasoning takes some effort and by partially playing out the lines one would see how the open lines and un-castled king along with being behind in development leads to a fierce attach.
The easiest takeaway from the avalanche of information is a cursory look at:
- the eval numbers that provide general picture
- the 5 five lines that provide the some of best candidate moves. One should ask themselves
o Did I even consider that move?
o If I didn't and it is not a blitz game then trying to see what makes it one of the 5 presented would be instructive and then one might consider it next time.
o If I did what was my take and why did I reject it.
These same questions can be considered when replaying Key Moments from the Analysis Report.
First, I know I'm not good and made a myriad of mistakes, so take that as a given.
I just want to know why in my latest game vs. DanielServenti, my (black) move 12, that it's telling me that was a blunder. I know I could have gotten a "free" bishop if I did its suggested move of taking on a3. But white could have responded with Knight c7 taking a pawn, forking my king and rook. My bishop move to e5 saved my bishop while preventing this fork. Should I really have taken and allowed the fork? Why?
I would have been +3 from the bishop, he'd have been +1 and then +5 from the rook. So even if I somehow trapped the knight and took it without losing another piece, it would have been roughly even but with a worse pawn structure.
Be5 is a blunder because white has f4 which basically deflects your bishop from the diagonal and allows white to play Nxc7+ winning the exchange. The only way to avoid it is to play c6 after f4 but even then fxe5 cxd5 Bxd5 Nh6 is forced, restricting one of your pieces, stopping you from castling while white can play many moves
