The analysis was not too sharp because I was going quickly over the game. but some of the moves and ideas are worthwhile to watch. hope you enjoy it.

Thanks,

Very nice, very original. A year ago I might have done the same (grab the pawn and RUNNNN :P), but somehow I wouldn't do that anymore. Surely white has very nice compensation, even untill he sacs that piece? Anyway, funny plan, nice game... and now back to mainline theory!

Interesting video.
When you asked where to place the Queen I thought of g6 but probaly you are right that after something like...Qg6 / Bd3 black shouldnt take on g2. When you moved it to e8 I had to figure out why not e7 / e6, which I thought would be aesthetical (rook to e8 later) sth like that. But indeed its pretty "obvious" to place it on e8 because on e7 the white knight might gain a tempo when going to d5 and Qe6 just blocks in the bishop (which doesnt want to go to d7 because the K needs the square, etc.)
Really an intersting video because I also like your approach of showing how memorizing/reproducing theory hems creativity.
