    • @lucasmatsuoca
      @lucasmatsuoca Рік тому +8

      my day was ruined when i checked the engine and it says it is a bad sac because white plays Kh1 and survives with a winning position, black can't checkmate because the queen is glued to the rook on e8, if it moves without check, white's queen takes on e8 mate

    • @lucasmatsuoca
      @lucasmatsuoca Рік тому +2

      If norms were possible to obtain from blitz OTB tournaments, he would be a GM, but classical format is just totally different. You need some next level of chess understanding to pull out some GM performances for the norm. I already defeated a WGM, and got a draw with an IM, and I’m often playing FMs and CMs, but all on blitz online, I would be obliterated from the opening on classical format
