    Man, watching your channel REALLY makes me think more about my playing. No one I know wants to play me in chess because I win all the time, but I've also played since I was 6 and had strategies engraved in my brain. You look at the game completely differently than I do! It's really interesting, and i find myself fighting to stay awake to understand your reasoning and forethought rather than ACTUALLY falling asleep LOL

    This chess computer is quite impressive, but it is not the strongest version of Mephisto. This version has a tested elo that is around the 1780 level when set to the max. It also costed around $225 when it first landed on store shelves in 1989

    Idk if I see the board correctly but, instead of taking the knight with your pawn, and then the computer taking your knight back with its pawn, couldn’t you have just taken the pawn on h2 with your bishop, and if the pawn took the knight you take the pawn on g2 with your bishop, and if the king takes the bishop you move your rook to g6 and check? And the only move is to block with the white bishop?

  • @patrickcarney6171

    Id turn down the mic sensitivity a good bit. You have a fantastic natural deep voice which works very well for male asmr artists. The mic is picking up far too much breathing noises. Someone with your voice doesn't need to rely on the heavy breath whisper type voice, just talk naturally but softly and you will get a much clearer sound with fantastic asmr sounds as well. Great video mate, try out that adjustment and you will be surprised at how good it sounds.
