Thank you. Ever time I end up in this starting position, I ended up with a stalemate. :) To me, this is my problem with many chess tutorials. I am never in the same position after the opening moves as any example. To me, that is why concepts of movement are more important than memorizing positions. Even with a really good player who memorizes positions, any concept out of his memorization of knowledge throws them for a loop. I think the best chess players are also inventive, (like Bobby Fischer was), in this game of unlimited possibilities.
Beautiful. Really starting to appreciate knights. Didn't solve it completely but had “a concept of a plan” ….. Right idea just poor execution. Thanks for another great puzzle.
This one was actually a good testing puzzle for many. Whenever I saw your different video (not all) they were kinda simple and relatively easier. (You may be doing but still I will say that) you should cover puzzles composed by former players/experts in history. Alexei Trotsky and Sam Loyd are among the top greatest composers in chess.
I have experimented a bit with, (and won with), moving the rook paws up the board as fast as i can for the opening, to free the rooks early in the game. I think it has possibilities for new play because the rooks are very strong, but never used early in the game. You may give up a castle move, (but maybe not), but if somebody develops the early rook release,---------------nobody would know how to defend against it. Now that would be a Historical way to win a big tournament with the last game, (if you put in the time for development homework perfectly).
Bishop B8 and king takes. Then white advances king. The white knight is three steps away from protecting the pawn. If the black king starts getting close to the white pawn, activate the knight. It is, however, important to keep advancing the white king when the white pawn is not in trouble.
@@ChessFinalzero The effective move I saw you do was getting the knight asap in the position to make the King take extra moves to get the pawn, (covering the c6 square). I did not see it until you did it.
White has to sacrifice bishop at b8 to avoid statemate draw. B to b8, K x B ( but now black king can move betn a8 and b8 only, it cant scape ) Now white to move knight as well as king to protect white pawn and take black pawn and get a new Queen.

another great Video , Thanks
Thanks 😍
Great stuff!
Glad you enjoy it
Very nice

0:45 First move can only be Bb8. Any other move is stalemate.
yes
If it's White's move then what was black's last move to get in that position?
King could have moved from a7 to a8 if White's previous move was pawn to b7.
Black: b6+, white: Ka8
@@CramcrumBrewbringer No, he'd just take with the king. Some other piece taking on h2 is much more logical, then the bishop takes back and we get to the position here.
White: Na8 (from c7), black: K:a8 (from b8).
@@t.oguzunluerler4804in that case it would be Black to move. Ka7-a8 is the only possible move. Taking the White pawn should be losing.
Absolutely very nice, Thanks.
Our pleasure!

cool
I saw three moves to, but not the move that protects the pawn.

Nice...
Glad you enjoyed it
It's obvious that first the Bishop then the Knight must be offered as a scrifice allowing the pawn to queen.
correct
Good.
Thank you! Cheers!

Oh, you also covered square d7 at the same time, which was more of the key. My question is, "How come i did not see that?". :)
Tricky knight!
yea

you said if you try to move your bishop anywhere it will be a stalemate, THICK!
Muchas gracias
To avoid stalemate there is only 1 legal move by white so the start is kinda forced :)
yea
and he sacrified, THE BISHOPPPPPPPP
😂
White gave the check with Pb6 and black did not take it
B b 8
