    The brutal thing about chess is that, sometimes, an apparently stupid, desperate attack can actually be a brilliant move, and a move that looks perfectly logical can blunder *all* of your pieces, as well as your car, your house and whatever remaining sanity you may have.

      In low ELO chess you have a pretty decent chance to come back from even a queen hang. The higher you go the less likely it is but anywhere below 1500 I'd say you're still in within a reasonable chance of turning it around. And even higher there's a tiny but still there chance.

    I resent the statement that if you see someone moving their king up like that you should report them. Just yesterday I was playing a game (I'm also 1100) and I was losing so bad after a blunder I just started running my king up mid like I was throwing a league of legends game. Id be so mad if I got banned for accidentally playing like an engine when I was actually just trying to throw LMAO

      Even when you casually look for king moves during a middle game, there are some tantalizing options to make your position more versatile- if there are no immediate refutations, then if you transition to an endgame your odds of winning can increase drastically. Cheeky maneuver, but it works pretty well in closed/ semi closed positions

      @jonm8895 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      When they ban an account they don’t just look at one game. If one game you found and played an engine move that’s just great insight by you. If you’re winning 90% of your games with a constant accuracy at 90 or above they’re going to look more closely. One game and one move is not going to get you banned even if you were reported.

      Calculations are really easy, seeing 6 moves ahead isn't that impressive because it's forced mate, and most likely every move came with a check, but still gj. I can play chess in my head so maybe I'm just used to calculating and it's actually impressive for a 1500.

    2. Youth Champions series, Covering worlds up and coming youth, their life stories, and their play styles.
    3. Secret troll account, black out your username so the troll username doesn't leak out and just chat with people in online chat to try to mess with them and get content.
    4. Guess the Elo variant, play random subs but black out their rating, after beating them guess their rating
    5. Updates on the charities and videos of the kids you've helped
    6. Shallow selfish plug, I'm around 1800-1900 on the online chess sites, I know we're minority on the channel but any vids directed on where we make mistakes and how we could improve would be cool if you ever get time around to that

    The gunslinger strode confidently toward the artist, their disparate appearances and backgrounds highlighting the unlikely nature of their encounter. Despite the outward differences between them, a subtle kinship was beginning to take shape. As they stood face to face, the gunslinger's weathered features softened slightly, and the artist couldn't help but notice the glimmer of respect in their eyes. It was as if they recognized in each other a shared sense of purpose, a deep-seated desire to create and shape the world around them. In that moment, the gunslinger and the artist became more than just two strangers passing in the night - they became kindred spirits, bound together by the power of their respective crafts.

    @wendydelisse9778 ปีที่แล้ว

    One of the basic themes of chess is the theme of king and pawn offering protection to each other. Keeping one's king adjacent to one or two or three friendly pawns is a way to do so.
    One case in point is at 15:51 when it is said, "Appearently black had to take with the h pawn... so the pawns needed to stay near the king." Two pawns adjacent to one's king often gives your king more protection than just one pawn adjacent to one's king, as turned out to be the case in this game.
    When one player had only one pawn remaining, a second case in point is the scenario at 16:42 where it is said "[I]f you are checked here, the engine wants you to move your king out to h4." The h4 move was the only legal move to keep the king adjacent to his last remaining friendly pawn. Having one's king stay adjacent to his last friendly pawn is generally a good idea, unless there is a clear disadvantage to doing so. The computer engine judged keeping the king adjacent to the last friendly pawn to be good in this particular case, but keeping one's king adjacent to his last remaining pawn is often good practice whether or not a computer engine is used.
    Both players in this game paid too little attention to an overall theme in chess of having king and pawn offering protection to each other. King and pawn sometimes make a surprisingly robust team, but many players ignore too much the potential for teamwork between king and pawn, and end up losing chess matches as a result.
