@Stink Wrinkles actually any half decent club level player can play that out instantly under time pressure.....it's why chess coaches/teachers/club leaders spend so much time teaching new players the basic mates, at lower levels you'll often have to break it down with time pressure...Mike was confused by trying to do it the "correct way" which is of course the best if you know it, but there's a simpler, easier to pull off method that takes more moves, but can be done with almost no thought so many people can do that faster...
Rook and king isn’t even about cornering. It’s the most basic opposition technique taught in chess. It’s literally the first thing I teach my kindergarten students after how the pieces move.
Hey man, I just wanted to say thank you for taking the time to make these videos, I know it must be a lot of work to make them consistently! Keep at it, you are improving the cohesiveness of a community and helping thousands of people enjoy the small things in life.
At 14:31 when asked how to finish the game off blacks king is restricted to 9 square so the most efficient strategy is to move King E5 forcing white to move to one of 3 square - whichever is picked white can reduce black to 6 square, and subsequent moves will rapidly push black into a forced mate (considerably quicker than the example provided).
This is a really great channel; you make great videos with diverse strategies and a really great collection of players, and your aims are really good. Where I am, pretty much everyone plays chess, but this really is a dying art and more people need to know about it. #CoffeeChess
Important alternative move that wasn't covered at the end: 5:25 Qc8+ Kh7 Qc2+ forces the Queen trade quite a bit earlier. With that much time left (2:30) and less advanced pawns that should have been enough to net Mike the win.
I discovered your channel today, I'm a noobi at chess (guetting destroyed by AI lvl 10 on chess.com). but It's a really incredible game I love it, as a decent Dota2 player I found alot of similitude between the 2 games. after watching around 20 of your vids I have to say I love those 2 guys especially Mike, he always look so angry and mad but at the end he's always smilling winning or losing. It is so nice to see someone being 200% into something he loves.
clearly he's not reading about endgames; specifically king/rook versus lone king....... I believe that's covered in chapter one of Silman's endgame course LOL
5:25 Qc8 looks great, then Qc2 forcing a queen trade. At this point in the game he's just playing around with a won game. Still, these sort of simplifying moves are important in blitz, IMO
At first, Mike seems like the jerk who's just naturally talented at chess by the way he trash talks and finds tactics, but then once he's up, he starts playing braindead moves LOL and then you feel bad for him hahaha that's awesome
He messed up on 4:23 when he moved queen he should’ve ate the room then if pawn eats queen he could use rook to trade queens and still have a chance EDIT: didn’t see ending lmao thought about it in the beginning of video
Bro I gotta be honest This is more exciting and entertaining the same time It's just like making golf a soccer game reaction Best chess content in this channel bruh
"Brutal Trash Talk" has no comparison to how these 15 year old pro fortnite players brutally trash talk each other. This was very well classed. loved it and I'm awful at chess!
Beat someone today using this king rook combo! Love the videos. I don't get to play people in person so the trash talk is not familiar to me. Will have to prep for it.
The personalities that chess brings to the table is just great.
1:10 is that xqc talking
bing! bang! boom!
J U I C E R
BING BANG BOOM. MY JUICER
L_?
all of us xqc viewers are everywhere on the chess channels. I played for the first time too its fun.
1:09 XQC's dad
Bing bam boom bang lethal
That rook is hanging... is Carlini handicapping himself?
9:13 rook h1 is checkmate so Mike should’ve won. It was still his turn before he moved Re1.
it wast checkmate, the king would have g3
Einsamer Denker no, go 2 moves before that. White had mate in 1 (Rh1#)
@@augustosasso3455 yes it was after Kh5 Rh1 was mate
@@blueskyautumn you're right, my bad
Mike also had a win at 3:30 if I'm not mistaking, queen sac, queen takes rook, if pawn takes back, rook f8 delivers checkmate
8:32 -check -ohoh - check -ohoh
Looks like Mike can find an invisible fork easily but struggles to with simple cornering of opp king.

I cant corner an opp king if I tried
Death Metal Alchemist why don’t you call him and educate him
well he did miss mate in 1

Poor Mike,
It isn't easy to focus on a chess game when a big jacket is trying to eat you.
“Check! You’re a rook up. How can you mess this up?” 😂😂😂
Any opponent : makes a move
Mike : ALRIGHT THEN IMMA GO HERE COUGH UP THE CAKE NOW!
Hey man, I just wanted to say thank you for taking the time to make these videos, I know it must be a lot of work to make them consistently! Keep at it, you are improving the cohesiveness of a community and helping thousands of people enjoy the small things in life.
Sycophant. I hate people.
Don't mention it
The most hilarious game ever seen! I coughed up my coffee during the last moments, literally, guys.
Imagine if Mike will have a match with Magnus Lmao
Ok mr clean
“Okay fancy pants that was a good move”
He would say "¡You and your weak moves!"
“Wow, what an incredibly strong move!”
Now what?
4:00 "You know, some people don't pay attention to this game" (let the fun begin!!!!)
lol
Yeah some people really dont, They really dont. AHAHA
Funny, as he's saying that he missed Qxc4
Boston Mike is improving fast!
His secret tactic is to talk mad shit just so he gets better players who want to shut him up.
Rekt_Yer_Nan_Darding _ I feel like you’re definitely onto something..
@@Adolesence I agree I think he is gonna be the next Shawn dawnson
Damn Mike that endgame technique 😂😂😂
These two are brutal! Loved it. Both are very cool and entertaining.
Epic Trash Talkers Man! Rolling On Floor Laughing. This game rules them all. Great video.
"The easiest game to win is a won game" Mike had Carlini, gotta focus on the end game Mike, Great game havent laughed this hard in a long time.

When I'm home alone playing chess I yell at the computer, "Cough up the Cake!!!"
And it *always* works.
You must have such bond to trash talk like this to still be friend and come back for the next match
This is a really great channel; you make great videos with diverse strategies and a really great collection of players, and your aims are really good. Where I am, pretty much everyone plays chess, but this really is a dying art and more people need to know about it. #CoffeeChess
and where is it you live where everyone plays chess
at 9:12 mike missed mate in 1, but he was under time pressure so respect lol
4:13 you know some people dont pay attention to the game haha
Important alternative move that wasn't covered at the end: 5:25 Qc8+ Kh7 Qc2+ forces the Queen trade quite a bit earlier.
With that much time left (2:30) and less advanced pawns that should have been enough to net Mike the win.
Carlini's end game is incredible
1:08 Carl didn’t take Mikes rook for a challenge 😂
Nah because then Mike plays Bb7 and wins Carls rook too while having the better pawn structure
I love it when Brooklyn Dave yells, “Mike, you can’t win with rook and king!”
For me, it's a win for Boston Mike. 🤷🏿♂️
Mike flagged, but Carlini had insufficient mating material, so I call it a draw.
@@RemyWillard yes I get it but that's generally, but knowing both players, Boston Mike wins; does it make sense to you? 😂
@@omarabouelella4854
Doesn't really make sense to me because of the flag, but I'm not opposed to adding a W to Mike's record. XD
You only win if you can finish.
@@omarabouelella4854 the timer is as much a part of the game as the pieces on the board. so no mike didnt win.

At 4:20 actually White's trap fails after Qxc4 and black ends up with decisive advantage in the endgame. Black fails to spot it though.
“Cough up the cake” I’m definitely stealing this line 😂
Dam mike hes reading books these days for sure😂😂
I know right! His theory is on point this game
Not books about chess theory thats for sure.
Verbal Ästhet this time he has my man
clearly he's not reading about endgames; specifically king/rook versus lone king....... I believe that's covered in chapter one of Silman's endgame course LOL
You are my second favorite channel, i hope you won't stop uploading.
never in my life have i watched a match this hilarious.
Cough up the cake lol 😂😂😂
keep uploading videos man... these are so fun to watch
Holy crap! This and the 2 queens escape! Respect!
5:14 I'm sure I'm missing something, but isn't Rb1 instantly winning for white? At best, Black is forced to trade Queen for Rook?
Seung Nam true
@@nagini4296 f5?
@@WingsZX if F5 then Qa8+ once again winning the Queen for a Rook
This is the most entertaining battle of chess I watched ever!
9:22 that check killed me lmao
The table at 11:44, black queen should’ve taken the white room at A1
9:20 rook to g4 : "check!"
😂😂😂
Yep
"You know, some people just don't pay attention" as he blunders his rook. Good thing his opponent didn't see it lol
10:02 "Are you freakin kidding me?!" 🤣
"Quasi modo, Quasi !" 😂 or "I am going to flush you like a toilet bowl."
All of these guys make my day complete
Boston Mike is my favourite chess trash talker. Greetings from Argentina Mike and the boys!
1:10 rare footage of xqc mastering his chess skills
My favorite of all of these games. Classic.
5:25 Qc8 looks great, then Qc2 forcing a queen trade. At this point in the game he's just playing around with a won game. Still, these sort of simplifying moves are important in blitz, IMO
I like it when he doesn't forget the simple explainations for novice players like me.
1:09 Mike can take down the Knight but he just being Mike
At first, Mike seems like the jerk who's just naturally talented at chess by the way he trash talks and finds tactics, but then once he's up, he starts playing braindead moves LOL and then you feel bad for him hahaha that's awesome
I love these videos man. keep them coming in 2021!
“Read a book”😂
Can't Blame Mike... I Probably Would Never Have Found The Death Stroke!!!
"The Hardest Game To Win... Is A Won Game!!!" 😁😁😁😁
The game is legendary
These guys make chess fun. LOL
Another epic game.
could watch this everyday, good lesson
"Learn the game!" ahahahah
He messed up on 4:23 when he moved queen he should’ve ate the room then if pawn eats queen he could use rook to trade queens and still have a chance
EDIT: didn’t see ending lmao thought about it in the beginning of video
1:07:
Is it on purpose Carl doesn't take the rook ?
Pascal Minette I think he let it go, because Mike is not a strong player
@@kyokitagawa7977 mm, not sure. Mike is able to win.
You didn't see Mike bishop on e5, he can also take carlini rook
cuz mike can take the pawn and rook on the other side too
@@spectrum9092 right, guys, thanks !
Its classic trash talks 🤣🤣🤣🤣
after watching xqc chess and hikaru, now I'm getting recommended to these?
Yep, as you can see, these two are slightly better than xQc. But not much.
2:27: QUIET YOU!!
cmon give carlini some cred!! he made me laugh so hard when he said QUASI!! quasimoto hahahaha
At the 3:25 mark in the video, Qxd5. If pawn takes queen, rook to e8, check-mate. Is there something I'm missing?
4:24 Oh the pc thought that was the shittiest move
mike seems to be like gilgamesh from the fate series,basicaly trash talks opponents and then winds up loosing somehow...
张照春 Mike’s basically the Saturday night villain of chess 😆
@@Tempusverum yeah xD
At the opening game 1:10 Qe5xa1, 1:48 Qa5xa2, easy score
5:24 Qc8+ leads to Qc2+ forcing the exchange.
No one:
Boston Mike: cogh up the cake
keep up them vids man love them
Man, this game was so funny 😂
One of the best CC games ever! Cough up the Cake is the best coin.
4:20 what was the play for black?
That was fun and instructive, thanks.
This game so hilarious!!! Haha Trash talk make the chess interesting
no. hare that shit
Bro I gotta be honest
This is more exciting and entertaining the same time
It's just like making golf a soccer game reaction
Best chess content in this channel bruh
what a crazy friendship :D
Hahaha.😅😅😅. Boston Mike is serious when it comes to the great Carlini. Love the guy Mike, hes alive to watch.
4:23, Move the upper rook to d3, best move for black.
Mike: imma go here cause i like u
Me: imma go here cause ill take that pawn
Bruvvvv that was just INSANE like WHAAAA? 😂😂
Great game guys! I need to get whatever book Mike's reading. He's been on fire lately!
3:15 Is there anything sacred with these guys! 😂
Before : apologize
Now : 🍰🍰🍰
8:32
Cheheck
Ohoo
Cheheeck
Wohoo 😂😂😂
Great game. I could feel the panic at the end.
"Brutal Trash Talk" has no comparison to how these 15 year old pro fortnite players brutally trash talk each other. This was very well classed. loved it and I'm awful at chess!
lmaooo, I need to see this kinda trash talk on siege or fortnite
9:12 rook to h1 checkmate
you are right but it was funnier as it was
I'm walking here
I dont play much chess, but this was fun!
Funniest game ever 😂 LMFAO...watched it twice
7:13 took check and queen h8 checkmate
I just started playing and I wonder, at 6:03, would it be a mistake to take on F7 ?
mike looks like someone who would run the prison yet at the same time someone that would buy a crying kid another ice cream if he dropped it
Beat someone today using this king rook combo! Love the videos. I don't get to play people in person so the trash talk is not familiar to me. Will have to prep for it.
