    Wow. Stockfish will never understand the absolute beauty of letting your bishop hang for 5 moves just to hop your knight INTO a pawn fork between that knight and bishop. 700 Elo chess truly is the ultimate form of chess.

      It's a briliant use of Asinus Buridani paradox. You present your opponent with two exqually good choices (in this case hanging knight and bishop) therefore removing your opponents ability to make one rational choice of what to take. As you can see, it works every time.

    • @BMLBiz
      @BMLBiz ปีที่แล้ว

      @An Enigma ladder mate is done with rooks so part of its principles include sending a rook the the other side of the board to be safe from the king.
      If he was trying to ladder mate and knew what he was doing he'd have moved the queen to c1 instead of hanging it on a8.
      For my money I'm gonna say he was trying to rub it in that he won.... sacrificing a queen knowing he could make another.
      Clearly dude didn't know how to use two queens otherwise he'd have went Qb7 for mate instead of hanging it on a8... actually I take back my earlier statement... I think he just couldn't comprehend that the king could take his queen..... clearly dude was scared of his early mistake and is why he ended up giving a stalemate... probably didn't even know it was a thing.

    At the top of my thoughts immediately following my viewing of this game, a single, comforting thought has come to me: it was a mis-click, right? Naturally, your mousepad is a little dirty, you want to move on to the next game, you flick your mouse over to the left side of the board and it snags. Before realizing, you depress the left button on your mouse, sliding your digital queen across the board into a position so delicately crafted as to equally divide the glory of victory and the sting of defeat.
    And yet, somewhere deeper in my heart, I understand it was no mistake. In recent moves, when white also had 2 queens, they made similar moves lining up the queens on the same file, like a twisted waltz designed to play at the human heartstrings. Alas, the powers of human habit prevailed over reason on this dreaded day. We have witnessed the lack of distinction between a king against the side of the board and lying open in the middle. In their haste, our protagonist did not adequately consider the consequences of their actions before they were made.
    Truly, the game of chess played perfectly, no matter between the brainchildren of the greatest minds in computer science or the half-brained timewasting of those blessed with boredom, ends in a draw.

    I see your "never play F6" and raise you a "still theory." Also, this video reminds me of the Finegold story where he was moderating a kids tournament and one kid declared stalemate and was proud of it.

    That looks like the kind of chess I play. I am proud of myself if I manage to think and plan one move in advance. Mostly I just do something because of tunnel vision and then I am surprised by what I missed.

    Hey levy, is there a reason you haven’t been doing recaps of the tournaments recently? I love every video you post, but I’d love to see recaps. I don’t watch matches live, so it’s nice to keep up with the pro scene via you.
