Great video.... i am currently studing my Endgames... i have a book and its got some great material in it.... But, like you said it suxs to loose rating points on a easy mistake like that.... Love the commentary.... i have some chess vid's check them out it you get a chance... Thanks...
Don't worry about rating. It's easy to regain and worth losing if you learn from it. Plus your opponent was 89 points higher than you so it's not a big loss. During the game you didn't have to sack a pawn to get a past pawn due to the irregular pawn structure. You could have made him trade evenly, leaving you with a past pawn. Also, if you know the king is about to take your pawn, you should push it and make him further from the action. But it didn't matter due to your knowledge of Trébuchet.TY
At 6:04 White has a much quicker win, he can play f5-f6 undermining the support of the pawn at h6. White is threatening to play fxg7 so Black must play gxf6. Then White just plays gxh6 and queens the outside pawn.
Will do! I had another game today that was interesting, so I'll try to remember to record it with commentary this week. I'm analyzing it now to look for tactics. Already found a way my opponent could have forced a draw. I actually saw it in game, but took a risk that he wouldn't see it, and it paid off.
I'm really not sure. It's gotta be thousands on each video, I'm sure. I've got hundreds on every vid, and over 10k on one of them, but that's not good enough, I guess.

at 5:18 I think g5 followed by f5 is better then h5. good game up to the blunder. I've thrown away my fair share of won games too.

That's true. Too bad I didn't give myself the chance to play this variation over the board.

They post the time limit as 10 min but it is actually 11 min. I don't have any special account and can post videos up to 10:59. Try it out.

Probably not. They frown upon copyrighted material. If you asked, they would end up removing your content, I imagine.

most of my stuff is underground and even supported by some of the artists. the more well known stuff does get removed, though.
