    There was a set up on 7:47. Black could have played r to d7.
    White can't take rook because then black can take the knight and get mate and you can't take with the queen either.
    You jeopardize your queen though if white goes kt to b1 but you get 2 rooks for a queen.

    "I am experimenting". You are getting a good, solid, unpredictable understanding of the game IMO. You are the kind of rare person who wants to not only know the history of play, but develop/invent your own game. When you bring your own game to a big tournament, even the best do not know what to do, (they learn quick though, so don't flaunt it, and you won't have to start over as often.). Big pressure, not knowing what to do. That tests the cracking point of any human being IMO. The fact that you have more experience with "the experiment" does tip the probably of success in your favor IMO. You are doing what we are suppose to do,--"Think". I dig that. :)

    I don't understand the disclaimer (of rules) near the beginning of the vid. "Playing clock move, (---), & OK to take the King to win the game."
    How else do you win? Taking the King is the object of the game that decides the winner.
    Are you guys feeling OK?

    • @cadefreeman5848
      @cadefreeman5848 Před 6 měsíci

      Because it's not the objective of the game? The objective is checkmate, which doesn't involve taking the king...
      The rules normally also actively prevent taking the king...
      Allowance of taking the king is a special exception, usually seen in blitz--hence their disclaimer.
      Are you feeling ok? If you're going to be condescending, at least try to be correct when you do so...
