Wyllie's Invincible: a winning formula for a losing move
Vložit
- čas přidán 3. 06. 2023
- Most professional checkers players do not play weak or losing moves and expect a positive result. The legendary James Wyllie, however, would often confuse his opponents with unusual moves that sometimes were weak and / or losing. But he got results and his status around the world grew as a pioneer and grandmaster in the game.
One of Wyllie's many innovations came in the Second Double Corner opening (11-15, 24-19). He would score a number of wins with a weak and probably losing 29-25 (the Invincible) in the mid game. In the first world championship match in 1847, Wyllie would try this move (29-25) against his opponent Andrew Anderson. However, Anderson was prepared and unleashed an innovation of his own to counter and defeat the Invincible. - Jak na to + styl
Checkers, a game of infinite surprises! Very beautiful combinations here, thank you Ryan! I loved the new board by the way, and the new visual style seen in this video, excellent work.
THE MAN THE MYTH THE LEGENDDDD Ryan Pronk is back!!!!!
You are back 👌🏻
Good analysis
I love your videos mate...very informative...please do make more...especially classic games from champions...
Beautiful visual, great to see you are back Ryan.
Really enjoyed this video. I need to play more frequently to see the possibilities a little better.
Thank you! Patience is key -- there is always something new to learn in the game. Even the best players miss possibilities!
Glad to see you back, mate.
Nice to see you again sensei!
Yeah 🎉 your back
Welcome Back ! Boss
Great video az. I have ended up in some of these landings before as red and always struggle
Yes, it's not easy at all. One false move and the advantage immediately swings from one side to the other. 7-10 looks to be a much safer move than the actual winning 7-11. It makes sense why so many have faltered at that point in the game!
Good job🤝💯💯
Hi Mr. Ryan .. Nice to see you back. Hope you are doing good.
Welcome back bro
😌Mr Pronk is back.
I normally play white pieces, kindly take me though 22- 17 which is best move as compared to losing move 29-25
It's on the list! Videos will be published regularly this summer.

Is this an english checker opening?
Did George die (checkercycle)
No, George is alive. There was talk of him creating videos again a while back, but unfortunately that hasn't come to fruition.
@@azcheckers Very glad to hear that he is well. When no videos appeared for a while, I assumed the worst.
I thought the man from the Checkercycle Channel had died. They said that in the comments.
@@williamjherbst7384 You are not alone in thinking this! But yes, he is alive and doing OK!
@@thomasengel1459 Correct!
