I love the Not So Instructive... series.

[Leventi1]

That's a very strange draw :)

[unclemeatster]

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

[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.

[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.

[OntologicalQuandary]

im pretty sure he could smash you

[barcdl]

his Elo is 2129.

[EpicRoze]
