Letsplaychess.com entertaining game: King Evacuation! - French Defence Haldane Attack

[OrphanedBlood]

My poor rook...

:)

Awesome video!

[chrism216]

can anyone tell me if this is possible?

50. ... Rf4.

this serves the purpose very well in this position right? the white king cant leave the rook, and the white rook cant take the black rook because of promotion. black would have enough time to bring his king in and target that h2 pawn, right?

51. h4 would not work... just

51. ... Rxa4+

52. Kxa4, f4 and its gg

World class Kingscrusher.

I absolutely love your videos your a teacher first and a chess board shark second. love the expressions.

[EpicRoze]

he's a GM.

[barcdl]

his Elo is 2129.

[unclemeatster]

@EpicRoze A CM, actually, which is Candidate Master. It's the lowest FIDE title but still makes you a very strong player.

[samirhossain]

What is your title Kingscrusher ?

[OntologicalQuandary]

im pretty sure he could smash you

[sdbaets]

i'm shure about that too, and i realise my comment was stupid. Therefor i'll delete :0) I was having a bad day :p silly me.

[Robotman42]

I thought you could've stopped his king from catching up by centralizing your king, but maybe I'm wrong.

[oleedee]

wow

golders green

i live in archway. is there any low rated players that go there?

[RuudJH]

Interesting game. Thx.

I play French defence myself sometimes, and have had trouble with Qh5 too, even though it still seems too agressive to me.

Maybe black went wrong with g7-g6, weakening the kingside (allthough i'm not sure about any improvements. more study is required).

[xtreme1002003]

I think that maybe you should have marched your king, in the endgame, toward the center first and then toward his h pawn to try to shoulder white's king and prevent it from getting close to your g pawn.

Good as always!

[minorityattack]

no one would be complaining about too many draws if all of the draws were like this. entertaining, indeed.

[graauwww]

You show the beauty of the game!

[tenoclocknews]

There's only one Haldane.

[Leventi1]

That's a very strange draw :)

[bicyclethief]

I love the Not So Instructive... series.

[chessfanatic]
