  • at 2:44 is that a stalemate?

  • No it's checkmate.

  • Awesome videos! Really helped me :)

  • Thanks for checking it out!

  • Why are you ranked so low? You seem to know what you are talking about.

  • My ranking goes along with the videos - kind of like a time line I guess. Thanks for checking out the vid!

  • A useful technique. I remember it as follows.

    Push the middle pawn then make a square, of four pawns, on your next move.

    It is easy to remember and is equivalent to the explanation in the video.

  • :DDDDDD

    i'm sorry but this screams "J-ro-bitchess" :D

  • this iis not going to happen in a real game

  • This is exactly what I looking for and I found it! The way to solve this dilemma is very counterintuitive and I suspect many players lose games by not forcing a passed pawn here.

  • very good

  • That was a GREAT explanation of that technique! I remember that from before and your explanation really cleared it up for me! THANKS

  • Liked this video very much, well done. Keep up the good work, really enjoy all your chess lessons sir.

    Its the exact same sequence of moves. First black moves the center pawn up once. White has to capture and then black pushes the other pawn up just like white does in this video.

    Grab your chess set and try it out :)

    No, The en passant move is only a legal move when the opposite color pawn moves 2 squares at once. So when the H-pawn moves from h2 to h4 and the black pawn would be on g4 only then is en passant legal.

    I recommend just looking at the en passant rules on wikipedia that will explain it more clearly.

  • To sum things up: 3v3 pawn, first person to move their pawn up wins pawn-right-of-way. =D
