  1. 9:03 cant you just play Rh1+ Kg7 Rg1+ any King move and then RxRg8?

  2. Please don't inhale through your mouth, let the air pass through the filters of your nostrils. That way is healthier for you far less triggering.

  3. Wow my first road map was rook from b7 to d7 black plays Re4+ and I was thinking Kc3 because I thought blacks idea was Rd4 to keep I rook guarding the d pawn after 3. Kc3 Rc4+ 4. Kxd2 Rxd7+ 5. Rxd7 Ra4 6.a7 after which black can check on the a file till my king chases him away and I promote or he sacs on a7 totally mis evaluated the position

  4. 2:07 I think it's Rd7 either forcing a trade or getting the pawn

  5. Wow, that's a lucky person, getting you as a personal, personal coach, even if for a night! Good luck to you all, hope you find clever puzzles to bring to the channel :3 have fun

  6. White can force a draw no matter what essentially

  7. It really tricky! I thought it is a draw. Rook endgame is super hard and tricky!

  8. I didn't know Shia Lebouf was so good at chess

  9. This is a great puzzle because it's actually not unheard of to have a position like this. A lot of puzzles seem to be very unlikely positions.

  10. нарезки каналов с твича says:

    What do u think about move the rock from e8 to e7 it is win for Black?

  11. You know you did not got to the line where the black rook just takes the white rook which is not lined up to pawn …..Hence You embarrassed yourselve again

  12. Why can you not take the pawn at 5:39? You don't have to push the A-Pawn allone. You can Keep him nearby the King. So the King defends always the pawn. And even if the Black King tries to capture the Rook, you can easily move the Rook D line up and down. The Result is, atbthe end Black has to sacrifice their rook for the promoted A- pawn. After that, you can capture Blacks pawn and you are completly winning. To conlude: Capture the Black pawn with the King –> Black has to defend their pawn with their rook –> White King goes one up and still defends the white pawn –> Black King goes to the white rook –> white moves the rook on the D line –> Black is moving the king (no other Option, because blacks rook has to defend the Black pawn) –> white moves the King one up (still defending whites pawn)–> black moves their King –> white pushes the pawn –> blacks King goes to the white rook –>wihte promotes the pawn to a queen–> black has to sacrifice their rook for the queen –> white captures the rook with the king–> blacks king Tries to capture whites rook–>white captures the Black pawn with the rook and is winning. Please correct me, if i am wrong. 🙂 Thx for your Videos. I really learn from those. Keep doing it!! 🙂

  13. alternative solution: unli checks to flag the enemy off to oblivion

  14. So triggering for anyone who read the 7th rank chapter of My System by Aron Nimzowitsch

  15. I have a question that persistently bugs me.

    What should we look for first? King safety, or ensuring we have a proper grasp of what material is on the board?

    Intuitively I want to go straight for looking at king safety, but that reeks of not reading the question properly before starting to solve it.
    Equally, I don't want to overcomplicate things and break the natural flow of thought and intuition.

    If anyone is so kind as to give me helpful advice, you have my thanks!

  16. @ChessVibesOfficial at 7:10 black could also move rook f8

  17. even tho how much I love chess, I'll never be a GM

  18. "And then we have a king and rook, which should be a pretty easy win"

    laughs in 500 elo

  19. Why is it in all these chess puzzles it’s always white that wins? Can you not do any where black wins?

  20. Nice way to force a winning King and Pawn and Rook and Pawn and King endgame!

  21. Wow I saw the 9:45 position but didn't think about the black rook checking white king trick in between. It is not difficult to calculate though once you see that.

  22. It would be cool to see a puzzle where you must en passant to win

  23. Pro tip, white always wins or ties in these puzzles

  24. I haven't watched the video yet, but the fact that black has a pawn about to be promoted means that white wins, because that's chess puzzle logic.🤣

    (Promise I'll watch the whole thing though and give a like.)

    Edit: I was right but it got a lot more complex, very clever and very nice!

  25. BRILLIANT study! I saw up to … Kg8. I'm pretty good with studies too. 😏

  26. I would just keep checking and handshake this shit as white 😆 +if he plays f8 after rg7 he mates himself

  27. At 6:00, black can actually check us with the other rook Rb8+, you didn't cover that line 😉

  28. Why Black cannot play Rook d4 at 5:21 ?

    If Rxd4 Black could play Rxd4 and promote. If Rxd8 black could play Rxd8 and promote. If a7 Black could play Rd4xd7 followed by Rxd7, Ra8, Rxd2 Rxa7 Kxb5 and it's a draw. If a7 followed by Rd4xd7 Rh8+?? Ke7 Black is winning, i don't see How White can win after this move

  29. 0:33 why white don't move rook from a7 to h7?
    I think it will be checkmate

  30. 6-22 And what if we go forward with a pawn and not take a rook? There will be a draw here.

  31. great videos… very clear and well presented

  32. At 5:50 the king can escort white pawn before advancing the white pawn, saving the rook the defend the black pawn. So you can take black pawn on the b file

  33. This guy covers really complicated Chess Puzzles I have ever seen (I am 1700s in Random and I find these tough)

  34. didnt actually need to solve the puzzle to know whether white or black wins. white has a forced draw so kinda gave it away

  35. 6:15 In my opinion it is possible for black to win. Instead of taking the pawn he can move the other pawn forward.if he keepa pushing the point in he can promote either one of his pawns to queen.

  36. You can't win I have tried it with level 25 chess bot

  37. I might be really smart or really lucky because for the most part I calculated the correct moves even in the title when I saw the video I said white wins
