Aren't you afraid of me?
:20:15
No. Why?
:20:18
We all destroy ourselves
in one way or another.

:20:20
What's important is
to enjoy oneself in the process.

:20:29
How will he open?
:20:33
I'm not asking for advice.
I'm proposing a wager.

:20:36
$500.
:20:38
$500.
:20:43
Your opponent plays
a somewhat primitive game.

:20:46
He withstood
your favorite opening move.

:20:51
Now he'll want to beat you
at your favorite defense.

:20:56
So he'll use an English opening,
confident you'll transpose.

:20:59
But you won't transpose.
:21:01
You'll surprise him
with a rarely used variation...

:21:06
and a damned effective one!
:21:19
I'm going to use the English opening
tomorrow. He's never beat me on that one.

:21:24
Liebskind doesn't play
the classic English opening.

:21:27
He'll transpose...
:21:29
and you'll end up facing
the Tartakower variation...

:21:33
with the Queen's Gambit,
his favorite defense.

:21:35
Exactly.
:21:37
Then I'll castle queenside.
:21:42
After that...
:21:45
G4, H4...
:21:48
and boom!
