In today's chess video, we'll look at some of the most amazing chess puzzles/problems I've ever seen. We also have some interesting chess stories to go along. This involves a lot of chess thinking in terms of strategy, tactics, moves & ideas so, try solving these chess problems if you are a Genius and if you do manage to find the solutions, let me know in the comments. Chess Challenge - We'll be looking at the solutions as well, but you should try it on your own to test your chess skills & talent. These exercises will help beginners to improve & get better at finding the best moves in different positions on the chessboard. These are some of the best chess stories, which show the different perspectives of chess players (Chess Story #1) & also the results of cheating by using chess engines (Chess Story #2). I also have an interesting chess puzzle at the end of this video (by Paul Morphy), let's see if you can solve that.

Puzzle ans - ra6 if pawn takes then pawn to b7 is checkmate and if it does not take then there is no legal move for black except to move his bishop hence rook to a7 is checkmate

@Farfous1 Жыл бұрын

the answer of the puzzle is Ra6 if he moves his bishop then Rxa7 is a checkmate; and if bxa6 we play b7 checkmate it was one of paul morphy studies

Watched the first half. Excellent rollercoaster. I had thought of Rook to the back rank, but I did not see that a stale mate was possible. My guess is people tend to over look stalemates. The only time I look for a stalemate is when I feel like I'm lost.

@NightcastBlitz Жыл бұрын

Yeah, I play chess often and currently go to a chess clinic to sharpen my skills. When I am winning, I either make concise moves and mate them quickly or play with them for a while while not making blunders. But if I'm losing, then I go for stalemate.

White -Ra6 Black has 2 options 1st Black -Move the bishop anywhere But, White will finish the game by R×a7 checkmate Rook is supported by the pawn and B8 is covered by the king Black pawn is blocking b7 , white king is also covering it 2nd Black -B×a6 ( B = pawn) and ( a6 =Rook ) and ( × = captures ) But, more toxic way White -B7 check mate with the pawn (pawn 1step forward) As a7 is blocked by Black pawn Pawn is supported by the king Black Bishop is blocking b8 ya, white king is also covering it

If you haven't done so already, you might want to find one of Blathy's monsters (100+ move mates). Generally, they're solved by using some sequence of moves that gives White a free move; then White repeats that sequence all over, and White makes another free move, etc., and eventually wins. (That's what I was expecting here.)
