He was actually winning almost the whole game, he just moved fast when he needed to just think a little before he did.

[@biggenius5322]

I have one critisism from an eyes of a strong player. I am around 1700 fide OTB and Mike just plays Fast in critical moments. I had the same issue too though. After nemo pushed C3 i saw in less then a second Rc2 i was screaming the move. But when he just blitzed D5 with no calculation i was frustrated. I was rooting for Mike. She was strategicly Lost in like 20 moves of the opening. She had a backwards pawn on C7. Sadge i was rooting for Mike.

[@ilevitatecs2]

He thinks more of winning Than of shooting - And the need to win Drains him of power.

8:56 confuses me. How was she able to take it with her pawn?

[@alancio1]

En passant, special pawn capture.

[@TexasSean]

I’m wondering the same thing

[@erikm9768]

Its called "en passant" , "in passing" and its because when they introduced the pawn can take two steps rule they also made it possible to capture it on the first square

[@gaignunkukai9461]

I can withdrawal my comment about that but after reading about it that is such a bizarre move gets to capture because the pawn moved two squares instead of one ugh not a fan of that move at all.

[@jessiedoggie1]

He lost when he pushed his pawn to D5 instead of blocking her passed pawn by playing his rook to C2. After blundering with the D5 move he had to sacrifice his rook to prevent the pawn from queening.

[@MrDeerbomb]

I think it's similar when we are used to playing online games, typically moba. It's kinda easy to remember when did the turning point happen and our opponent suddenly losing from a winning position

[@thor3203]

Finally the battle I've been waiting for lol shout out the nemo for keeping it real and having fun :)

[@XaeroDegreaz]

@ 6:06 - Can someone explain this move to me? She moved her pawn two spaces forward adjacent to enemy pawn, but he took her pawn and moved diagonal. I feel like there is some esoteric chess move that I'm ignorant to. I mean, according to touch-chess her pawn only moved one space so that pawn take would have been legal, but per the introduction instructions they are playing timer chess, which I would assume means that your turn is only committed once you press your timer. Again @8:52 - I feel like I'm losing my mind; how are they taking adjacent pawns like that? Edit: After a little research I learned of a rule called "En passant" whereby a pawn passing through another pawn's capture zone is allowed to be taken by an opponent's pawn. The two timestamps in question both had pawns that used a double move forward to pass through another pawn's capture zone, so they are allowed to capture. Interesting rule!

Hey Coffee Chess, not sure what camera you guys shoot on, but if you shoot on a DSLR, i'd reccomend getting a 15-25mm lens so that way you can get the whole board, as well as some of the crowd, and you won't have the problem with some of the board being cut off. Plus it'll give you plenty of space to have the virtual board in the corner or above the players.
