Wow it´s the best video on the topic. I am 2150 elo rated but one of my younger students asked me if I could do it, I confidently claimed I could it took me way too long because I never actually studied it and so I wanted to learn it in an organized matter and found that your video was explaining it by far the best !

[@patrickarmer937]

You explained this very well. The other videos I saw showed more of an ideal situation rather than a full proof system, thanks so much I can nail the mate every time now

How to check mate with only 1bishop and 1knight

[@dhruvramani28]

It's possible. It's a very specific method. The way to win is to push your opponent king to the corner of the board the same colour as your bishop. Example, if you have a light squared bishop, push your opponent king to either H1 side or A8 side.

[@Smeric]

yep since the first video ;)

[@everstanding400]

if you end up with a bishop & a king against a king, then it's an automatic draw (insufficient material) because neither player has enough material to deliver checkmate. and if you end up with 2 knights & a king against a king, it's possible to checkmate your opponent but there is no way to force it, so if he plays correctly with his king he will get a draw (by 50 moves rule)

[@holgerjurjo4282]

@@everstanding400 you can mate with the knight and bishop

[@unicornbunny6190]

Smeric : One bishop and king against king...impossible to checkmate. Result draw. A bishop n a Knight plus king against king difficult most likely A draw. 2 KNIGHT n a king against king...Result draw.
