    Playing like a 1900 without knowing elementary king pawn endgames❤

    It's endgames again Patrick. It was completely won for you. This position - is 20:08 - is a classic endgame. Your king has to stay on g7 and h7. The check is not a problem if you are on one of these two squares. Meanwhile, you can bring your bishop around to win their b7 pawn. You need to play Be2 and Ba6. But, as often is the case, you are moving your king forward thinking about how you can attack when the biggest threat is that b7 pawn and you should be 100% concerned with how to get rid of it.
    And even at 20:53, you shouldn't lose this. But your focus is on what you can do (attacking the rook) completely ignoring what they can do (and not noticing that they can take your bishop).
    But it turns out that white is as bad as you at endgames. First they hang their rook and then at 21:56 it is a solid draw if white knows how to play K+p v K. Sadly, they don't, Looking forward to the review of this one.
    But you are over 1450 which is great news.

      Yes he seemed blissfully unaware that he was headed for a draw and not a win, had opponent not blundered at the very end. I'll admit that a small part of me was looking forward to the "oh nooooo" reaction.

      This is very helpful. Hopefully, Patrick feels the same way. It'd be great to see him break 1600 before the end of the year.

    21.53 I WON .. NO its a 100% easy draw just your opponent does not understand opposition , neither unfortunately do you, what's even more unfortunate is even in the analysis where the computer is telling you its a draw you think you `figured it out` rather than he blundered, you can`t learn from analysing a game if you don`t even read what its telling you in black and white.

    Prediction for the Dec. 1 big change coming. I'll guess that Patrick is going to do something totally different, put chess on the shelf for a while. Some other game or activity, maybe create a new ID and see how big he can grow his channel.

    End games are nearly always the weakest part of the 1400 to 1600 players. You have to be able to negotiate these well to climb any higher

    Opponent had the draw until the mistake at the end, so "yay I won" was a bit premature. Am I a bad person for hoping for one last surprised "oh noooo"?

    Wow. “…and that’s why you always leave a note…er, umm…you never resign at this level…”. I think I quoted Arrested Development correctly….😂
    I really had it in my head that you had forced checkmate in 2 at one point when their king was wedged in the left side.

    Blunders happens at this rating range. But an opponent with a 1500 rating who plays Bxh7 and don’t know that that bishop must be retreated immediately? And who doesn’t know the opposition rules with the king in that endgame? It stays remarkable 🤔

    I stumbled on this channel and enjoy it a lot. My opinion you didn't ask for - I'm probably no better a player than you Patrick, but from binge-watching your videos recently I think you spend too much time on tactics instead of having a plan and trying to implement that, and only looking for combinations when the plan is working. You're way ahead of me at spotting tactics but you often play weird moves when there is a natural alternative. You would probably see a huge bump in your ELO if you engaged a coach.
