You could take his queen with your king in the end? ;p

@bohmana It would be stalemate.  Josh was playing for the win.

Alright so I got a little confused at 21 seconds in the video where the king plants his ass on the queen haha.

13:27 cant blame you for missing this. according to a tablebase your only win starts with Qc4 which is a win...in 76 moves. very tough to see that many moves with less than 2 minutes left.

29...Rxh7 is a horrible blunder

I guess it even happens ... to 2000+ players ;)

move 59... Kf6 60 Qh6+ (Qg2+ ... Qe5 61 Qb6 ... Kg5 no more checks) ... Kf6 and the same continuation happens ending in no more checks

I feel really sorry for him. He totally had to win this one. Very great match.

I love when you say "I need to be a little bit careful" as if that isn't always the case in chess.
