Silman's imbalances

This guy is really cool! He uses two diagrams from Silman's "How to reassess your chess" 4th ed. to show how imbalances can be used to win a game. It's interesting that in the second display, he could have checkmated black's king. He wanted the king to resign but he went on to obtain 6 queens playing against a computer with rating 2500.

Thanks for posting this link.  I watched it last night and I think it really helped give me a better understanding of Silman's books.
