Hi, my name is Gauri. I'm a chess master from Chicago, United States. When I was a kid, I made my first chess account grandmastergauri because it has been my lifelong goal since I was 6 years old. My goal of this channel is to share my knowledge and passion for chess with like minded fans!
Thank you for supporting me on this journey and hope to see you soon!

At 1:20 I forgot to mention a key variation. If black moves the rook anywhere on the d-file like Rd1, White can mate by playing Re2 check, Kd8, Bg5 check, Kc8, Re8!!
Spoiler for the end: If the king doesn't take and instead promotes the pawn, you have Nd2+ forking the king and queen. If the king doesn't take and moves the king, you have Nc3 preventing the promotion of the black pawn. Nice puzzle and presentation.
