The Deadly KID Pawn

What makes a chess combination beautiful? It can be many things, and the combination executed in this game from 1997 contains lots! Czech Grandmaster Lubomir Ftacnik, playing white, and Yugoslavian Grandmaster Ognjen Cvitan enter the highly theorized Mar del Plata variation of the King's Indian Defense (KID). The typical Mar del Plata race culminates with a beautifully coordinated combination involving a queen, bishop, 2 knights, and 1 deadly pawn.

I'm a self-taught National Master in chess out of Pennsylvania, USA who was introduced to the game by my father in 1988 at the age of 8. The purpose of this channel is to share my knowledge of chess to help others improve their game. I enjoy continuing to improve my understanding of this great game, albeit slowly.
