  • @BostonFenian
    @BostonFenian Před 3 lety

    Man that endgame in the first game was one of the most complicated I've ever seen (I guess it's technically not an endgame since both queens, all the rooks, and three minor pieces were still on the board, but it feels weird saying it's still the middlegame). I put the position where you began your breakthrough into the king's position into Stockfish and it was extremely difficult for white to win unless black makes a serious blunder, and all but impossible for anyone but a GM to win with only 2 minutes left on the clock, since the sequence of moves assuming perfect play is so long until white can mate black. You fared much better there than I would've, that's for sure. Really cool game, though!
