    Moving the king back to d7 made me furious i had to admit
    Crooked Path sounds like an ancient order of warrior-monks, trained in both martial arts and chess.

    Really nice way to learn about the crooked path 👍🏼

    This chess puzzle was composed back in 1928 by Alexander and Kirill Sarychev (USSR). It's considered to be a variation of the famous Reti endgame study.

    This has been here before, i remember it, but it still amazes me(i remembered the first two moves, that’s how i know this isn’t new)

    Brilliant stuff. The white looked pretty helpless at first . It shows how important os not to commit too early to one plan.

  • @lonewolf42923
    @lonewolf42923 2 месяца назад +2

    It's a study from the Sarychev twin brothers, published in 1924, 3 years after Reti's study.
    I have a version where the king is on f3, I searched both FENs on your channel and didn't find the original post.
    Maybe you did it live streaming, while pausing the climb.
    I must say that the black king probably should be on f3.
    It prevents the alternative solution in the secondary line : 1. Kc8! b5 2. Kd7! b4 3. Ke6? (instead of Kd6) Ke4 : only available if king starts on f3.
    With the king on g3, 3. Ke6 works, 3. Ke6 Kf4 4. Kd5 draws.

    Wow, just wow! This must indeed be one of the most incredible chess puzzles of all times, it's similar to the famous Reti study, but even much crazier, who would have thought somthing like this to be even possible? Chess is indeed endlessly deep and never ceases to amaze!

    @marcc1 Месяц назад +1

    6:54 black can also move the king to g4 to protect the bishop so it wouldn't work

    Hi nelson, does playing chess improves nervous system? Or it just a pattern recognition game.

    The principle of one diagonal, you need to make sure the bishop cannot protect both pawns at once

    Like quantum mechanics, the king is in two places at the same time. Maybe the ranks are particles and the diagonals are waves.

  • @qazzaqstan

  • @user-uf6ph9dp3y
    @user-uf6ph9dp3y 2 месяца назад

    Kc8 is for me is unhuman move, who would think about moving the king back and chasing the pawn in critical way.
    Awesome puzzle and i enjoyed it.

    • @scion.
      @scion. 2 месяца назад +1

      After Kf4 white can just play Kc6, simultaneously threatening capturing Black's pawn or promoting without the risk of being skewered.

  • @sigmaoctantis5083
    @sigmaoctantis5083 2 месяца назад

    Too bad: 1.Kc8 was the second move I considered, but I also immediately discarded it, completely missing the crooked path trick. :-( That trick is of course shown at its best in Réti's most famous study (wh Kh8, Pc6 vs bl Ka6, Ph5), but the present puzzle, with the counterintuitive _vorplan_ 1.Kc8, is even more surprising.
