Using the Initiative Part 2

GM Mackenzie Molner brings us the second installment to his video series on the initiative today! Here we take our understanding to the next level by reviewing an exciting game between two Super-GMs. The most critical lesson from this game was the importance of creating threats, even at the potential cost of more material (especially if you've already sacrificed something to get the initiative you currently have). Enjoy!

Using the Initiative Part 3

GM Mackenzie Molner brings the first section of his video series to a close by reviewing a victory he had over GM Loek Van Wely! After an interesting variation of the Sicilian Kan develops, Mac highlights that his mind was set on keeping the initiative with attacking moves. Eventually, this approach paid off with a crushing attack... and who knew a former Super-GM would let himself get checkmated?
