I'm playing on Chess.com -- these aren't sponsored videos but the site seems pretty cool.
Chess has been having a resurgence in popularity this year so I have finally acquiesced to semi-popular demand and started to play a bit. First, let's hone our skills and get a little more warmed up and then let's conquer chess dot com one board gamer at a time.

At 8:00, I would take the horse with my dark square bishop. If he recaptures with queen great! Mate in 2, capture d5 pawn with queen, black queen blocks, queen takes queen, and its mate. If he takes with bishop, just move light square bishop to d7 to block the queen. Queen won’t take because bishop is defended by the knight. Hoping that c pawn doesn’t move forward to protect d pawn, in the next turn you capture d pawn with queen and it’s mate (unless two pawns in front of king moves to make breathing room, in which case it’s just a check, but istill like the position)
@Rumpael 3 жыл бұрын
If you're up material in a position, try not to think 5 minutes on a complicated variation to try to figure out the best move in the position when you have a simple, but still good move that ensures you your (material) advantage that you already have. Your clock won't burn and you're gonna have less blunders --> less losses

(I'm probably a worse rated player than NL): 21. Nxe7+ Bxe7 22. Qxd5+ Qf7 23. Qxa8+ Bf8 24. Bb3 Qxb3 25. cxb3 Edit: okay never mind, I kept watching the video and yeah that's the move haha.
