We are only one step away from promoting but it seems impossible to stop black from taking our pawn which leads to a draw. How do you play it out to win?

1:12 "... and if we just go up or down there will be a check on h1 and then Rg1" Really? 1. Kh3 Rh1+ 2. Kg2 stops the skewer. However, 2. ... Rh4 followed by 3. ... Rg4, which was covered later in the video in a different line, would save the game for black.

@AndrewB847 3 месяца назад

Or after 1.Kh3 Black can just play Rg1, and is actually winning.

@tykemorris 3 месяца назад

His statement wasn't correct, due to the Kh3 move you mentioned, but it still would have led to a loss or a draw at best. Bf8 would have saved an immediate loss but the g file pawn would be stuck by the g4 rook while black's f file pawn would be mutually protected by the rook until the black king arrives to escort it to promote. I see Kg3 as a loss for white.

Really beatiful, with such restricted material many bishop sacrifices. Also beatiful the battle King vs Rook, reminds Saavedra!

3:02 if Kg5 . . . Rg1. IF Pg8(Q) . . . Rxg3+ K-moves . . . Rxg8, winning the queen ELSE If Kf4 or (h4) . . . Rf1+ (h1+) and perpetual check

@emersonarriety 3 месяца назад

Kf4 and Kh4 are both winning for white. 1. Kh4... Rh1+ 2. Bh2... Rxh2+ 3. Kg2 and that line is shown in the video 1. Kf4... Rf1+ 2. Ke3 (Ke5) and black cannot stop the pawm from promoting

Brilliant tactical chess. Most people dont know that unless someone practice these on a daily basis, its really not possible to apply in real games. Because in real games, we will be under time pressure to see all the lines especially in blitz/rapid chess. One has to keep practicing these tactical variations on a daily basis. And of course, this channel is one of the best in practicing these. Thank you very much again and God bless you.

@MichaelHarrisIreland 3 месяца назад

There's a whole game of chess in this. Found the right Bishop move and Black lost. Didn't play the best moves for Black who would have lost anyway I hope.

@tykemorris 3 месяца назад

Good puzzle and I feel good that I fully solved it, and played out all variations. There are lot of ways that a kamikaze rook can foil your plans, but the Bishop sacrifice Was The big mainline answer.

@MrGyges 3 месяца назад

What !? Yet another puzzle? 😊

@faroncobb6040 3 месяца назад

A queen vs rook endgame is winnable, but what about a queen vs rook and pawn? It seems to me that black would have to be better off accepting the bishop sacrifice and then letting white get the queen rather than sacrificing his pawn just to get a few more checks in.

@tykemorris 3 месяца назад

Technically since you know black will lose by checking the king anyway, I suppose his better chance would be to preserve the pawn. Still, a queen and a king should easily beat a king with a rook and pawn, unless the pawn was on the verge of promoting maybe. Queens on an open board are powerful and a checkmate is imminent.

@kotowastaken 2 месяца назад

While there are fortresses with a rook and pawn vs queen, the king has to be able to defend the pawn. King too far

@Bhadrudu 2 месяца назад

After 1. Bd6 Rd4+ 2.Kh5 Rg4 3.Bf4+ RxB 4.g8(Q) can black draw as it has a pawn along with rook by trying to promote the pawn?

@broniuszibaitis7246 3 месяца назад

Excellent!

Bd2 check and win

@jojolo5451 2 месяца назад

But after Rh1 and Kg5, Rg1 threatens Rxg3 and after that taking the pawn and if we defend the bishop, he checks on h1 or f1

@Ahldor 3 месяца назад

2:59 After Kg5, if - Rg1 then white needs to defend his bishop and black could put him in check again and repeat the position. How does white stay out of draw by repetition here?

@landen99 3 месяца назад

my thoughts too. I'm seeing: Rg1 Kf4 Rf1 Ke3 pf4! and with black pawn sacrifice white can win but it seems tricky with: .. Ke4 Rg1 pg8 Rxg3. Because Bxf4 allows Rg1 attack to pawn, the black sacrifice is a fake sacrifice.

@AndrewB847 3 месяца назад

@@landen99 After Bxf4 Rg1, Kf2 is check and wins the rook. Ke4 Rg1, Kxf4 also wins.

@tykemorris 3 месяца назад

Rg1 by black at 2:59 which is results in Bd6 to Bg3 in this variation. The g file is blocked by a protected bishop and white is not in check at all, let alone perpetual check. If Black goes to Rh1+ then white sacrifices at Bh2, because white can't protect the Bishop or their pawn from g5. White needs to prevent black's rook from skewering his king on the g file. So the sacrifice gives the king a threat to the rook, a tempo loss by black and a way to escape to f file to avoid skewers and forks.
