  • This was originally live-streamed in March 2020 at / imrosen . In this video, I get to play two Reversed Halloween Gambits against titled players in the lichess.org's Titled Arena.
    Game 1vs ‪@SatrancTV‬: lichess.org/NK...
    Game 2 vs FM SergioMiguel: lichess.org/LW...
    Also, thanks to the ‪@chessbrah‬ for the raid during the first game! (I didn't get to acknowledge it as I was preoccupied with the time scramble)

    I don’t know if you noticed but you could have won your first game if you look on move 30 when he moved Ka2 you could have taken with rook which then would have been checkmate cause your bishop was watching B1 and queen was guarding rook
    Edit: nvm I just studied your board pawn on b2 would have taken Ra3

    • @MoiMagnus1er
      @MoiMagnus1er 3 роки тому

      It is legal because he is blocking the opponent's check by putting the rook between the queen and the king (while checking the opponent with a bishop at the same time, which mean that the opponent will not be able to move its queen and you will be able to capture it). The only rule is "you cannot end your turn in a position where your king is under check", but any move is legal (except castle) as long as you break opponent's check.
