    The last pause-the-video moment was surprisingly easy. I spent so much time thinking "wait, why is Rxa1 and Rd8 not just winning on the spot? GM material? Do I need to switch the move order or something?"
    But no, the straightforward answer is indeed the best answer.

    • @indianfan1029

      He paused at the wrong moment. Rxa1 was so obvious. He should have paused after bishop recaptures.

      @TheDannytaz 2 месяца назад

      ​@johnjameson6751 Same as well, but I sumirsed if Rb8 is winning (which it looked) then Rxa1 must as well. If he doesn't recapture and goes g7, I'm up a rook can't complain😂

    • @petewest3122
      @petewest3122 2 месяца назад

      Pause the video moments have two components: 1. Simply find the winning move. 2. Calculate through to that point from much earlier in the line. GM tier calculation probably starts from the move .e6. It's not a forced line but in order to play e6 you need to see that the following combination leads to a queen trade with the pawn on f7. You also then need to see the see the power of getting the bishop to b5. Without that, it's a completely drawn endgame.

Dardha's grandfather, Bardhyl Dardha, coached the Tomori chess club in Berat, Albania as well as his son. At age 82, he was still active in online chess.

  • @dougrife8827
    @dougrife8827 2 месяца назад

    One of the best games ever!. The last pause the video was by far the easiest starting with Rd8, not Rxa1 which is obvious to avoid a check to the white king. The first two pause the video moments were much harder because there were many pieces on the board and the lines were more than a few moves ahead. I found Rd8 in a couple of minutes but then realized that the rooks on the first rank must first be exchanged. I was unable to solve the first two pause the video moments because of there were too many possible lines to calculate with sufficient depth to determine which one was the strongest.

Missed the first pause the video (went the boring usual route, although i had the right move as an option - beautiful combo after - that's why I hate d4 when i play black - I got so much punishment when I played d5, i just stopped using d5 as black). Second pause the video moment also missed that. But I did get the last one, both moves, but not the third...go figure. Great show, thank you and thank you to the players. Still Kirill held it as much as he could, some would consider it game over particularly as he did not have the bishop move that could have kept him with a chance. Daniel was prepared as in probably had went through the same painful experience of the "pleasures" of the queens opening as many others have, when facing it as black.
