    Tbf to White, they thought that promoting to a queen is only worthwhile if they get to keep it, so they didn't want to promote because they knew they would just lose it right away, without considering that it would be a massively good trade in their favour.

    I've gotten to the point now where I analyze my games as if I were writing a script for one of these videos (with help from the eval bar). It actually helps me figure out when/where I make stupid mistakes and how to recognize when I need to check myself and slow it down. Also, LMAO at the eval bar swinging 100 points in a SINGLE move. I'm pretty sure white didn't just promote the pawn because they either didn't know that king+rook vs king is a win, or just didn't know how to do it
