Playing chess until I hit 2000: Day 220 

Take a look at 8:48, your King is trapped, you moved rook f4, but your opponent can position the other rook at b7, double trapping your king, then sacrifice the f6 pawn that you wanted to take, and checkmated you with rook A2, as the B column was guarded. He later made a mistake with A2 check (without covering the B column) and your king was free again. In Those complex cases, when you have two pawns more, just change one of the rooks, as it would be impossible for your opponent to find a trick or trap your king.

11:03 if we win we get 7 points of material 😂😂😂

Great game! I learned a few things about rook end games from watching this. It's incredible that you can calculate, deploy tactics and guess what the other player is going to do. Then explain it to everyone watching at the same time. Mental gymnastics 💪

look at the bright side... you could have very well have lost at 13:30

What a back and forth!! Nice try!

dont be sad, u got the next one, rook endgames are deceptively difficult

Feel for you buddy, to be fair your opponent defended well and time wasnt on your side. Tough one.

think of a draw as a free lesson - disappointing but now you have something to build on :)

what will u do after 2000 elo

excited

Owen, man, you had a two pawns advantage. You should have won this game...feel bad about this draw((

😖😳🤯 bro.

Owen! You consistently see these tactical moves/mistakes seconds after you play your move. You’re seeing things your opponents don’t see I know you can make it to 2000!!!!
