I fell asleep watching this video and dreamt that you were a veterinarian/band teacher, both jobs taking place in the same building weirdly enough, and you were giving me a tour of your classroom/veterinarian office
Dear chess people. Position at timestamp 39:03, after white plays c3. Imagine Eric plays Nf4 check Rxf4 Now the bishop is still pinned. My question is can the king now take the rook? Or is it still defended by the pinned bishop? Because technically, the white bishop is immobilised. This would mean however that the black rook is also 'tied down'. My guess would be the answer is no, the king cannot take.
I don’t know what I would do without the extra channel providing me lullabies 🙏🏼 all hail Eric “IM” Rosen 👼
Don't take this the wrong way, but Rosen's content is my go-to for insomnia 😀
@@waltergildersleeve7890 me too but I still can’t stop myself from putting him on at night before I go to bed 😭
Been falling asleep to his content for 2 years now lol
Eric's smile is everything. This thumbnail makes me all warm and fuzzy. Thanks for this video. Have a good day Eric ❤

your guess is correct
Correct, the king can't move into a threatened square, even if it only threatened by a pinned piece.

Yoko Ono my queen! Sounds like you could technically get away with moving your opponent's pieces on that board.
