How To Checkmate With A Rook And King?

[@colemagee230]

Anybody else here after drawing this position because they couldn't mate :,)

[@bigt2910]

Im so saad i was winning 😭

[@johnclemence6566]

Yes I've been playing for years but havnt had a rook king end game for a long time and forgot how to do it lol

[@Goku-sj5sm]

yes lmao

[@allasar]

Only a total noob would not be able to mate this way... so, yes I am :(.

[@jadensiewrattan5556]

Im here bc im in the middle of a game, i have 2 pawns, we both have 1 rook. Just preparing for the future. lol

[@joebermuda6452]

Those are easily the most frustrating checkmates especially on time control

[@rife133]

not really

[@Sajid009]

I just missed the win cuz of 50 move rule 😂

[@Ducky_WCUE_1]

I checkmated my friend once with a rook and my king when she had her 2 rooks, she made the mistake of giving me a free turn without check and moving her king into the corner

[@chessscape]

ouch 😅

[@staliczeno]

Keyword she anyways

[@milzex2082]

Rookie mistake

Fantastic video!!!! To the point, not long drawn out video. Thanks!!

[@OmarKhatib-p5z]

Who else rushed to their laptop to watch this video when they had 2 minutes left

[@potxtoe]

that is literally cheating lol, dont make it a habit.

[@secretman1395]

I had 2 queen, 1 bishop, 1 rook and i still lost to a fking king bruh 😂😂😂

[@1kaz1]

Essential skill, thank you!

[@Omegazelll]

Just fucking blundered this end game at the last move causing a stalemate so had to google it. I hope this will make me remember it forever

[@danielc.6644]

Best tutorial I have found about this, maybe I am stupid(I am, probably) but the others tutorials were pretty confusing and I couldnt quite do it. Thanks mate.

[@loudpack4393]

Had 2 mins on the clock ran straight here after this position. And with 1.4 SECOND REMAINING I was able to checkmate in perfect position

[@rhyanvalk7897]

You can also use the checkmqte trick to push the king to the edge

[@chessscape]

👌🏻

[@tryrestartingit]

I am a 1600 blitz player. For some reason, I refused to learn this for so long. I must have lost like 14 games from not knowing how to do it. Finally took time to learn it today lmao.

[@rahulkadiyan332]

How come u made it to 1600 blitz, without knowing this…this is frequent occurrence

[@vilainkikinou9951]

Short and clear. thanks!!!

[@samgriffin6013]

thank you bro just won a game after watching. Saved me from almost losing on time

[@Dedlmaohahah]

LMAOOO THIS IS ME. I WAS PLAYING A 15|10 AND WAS WITH JUST A ROOK AND KING AND I BADLY DIDN'T WANT TO DRAW. I WATCHED THIS VIDEO ON ANOTHER DEVICE AND WON LESSGO

[@astra8203]

Thanks. I literally went and looked at this midgame to make sure I didn'T screw up. What a man

[@nihadzulcic4120]

I just lost because I didnt know how to do it... learned it!!! thank you

[@Shallow7]

I watched this while in a match ty

[@ber9ou930]

i magically saved a game with the rook and a king checkmate i was so low on time. i came running to check the right way to do it lmao.

[@ostrados]

What if he repeats moves and in the last row not going to corner?

[@mattizgir]

Gave a like for the mini explosion lol

[@MeetTheMacieek]

thank you bro

[@nilimadhore5742]

Thanks. I just drawed a game rn becuz I could not bring the king to the corner

[@jhoewin]

I've just played my last opponent and my opponent just abandoned the game because i forgot how to to do this😂

[@HyperMusic13]

😂😂

[@angelmihaylov6888]

Thanks, Leclerc

[@jagi7976]

Thanks. Just drew to a guy 300 Elo above me because I didn’t know I could checkmate with a rook and king vs a king. Ended up drawing bc of the 50 move rule lol

[@ambrose7196]

And here I am, not able to checkmate with rook and bishop against a lone king

[@GregTurismo]

I know this and still couldn't confidently do it in under 20 seconds. I guess I gotta practice this more.

[@kirankrathod9071]

1:20 how is that checkmate??

[@appl3thegr3at64]

because the kind cannot move and is in check

[@WackyWinner338]

Kings cant touch

[@zakiyamariyam-nq4ko]

first you learn what is checkmate

[@MartikWas5912]

Actually, I use the technique you use at the end also to bring him to the edge. I also use it with the Queen. Daruukh techniques are always the bests.😄

[@Zynthzl]

the thumbnail 💀

[@chessscape]

i agree. Working on this

[@six-2519]

Please tell how to get this chess

[@someone-ln4cf]

But what if the opponent never get in the line with our king, and never gets in the corner?

[@ai_akamidori1919]

It has to do at least one of those eventually

[@philstallard2408]

You can move your rook to 'waste' a move. Then their King will have to get opposite you.

[@OkoYT]

thanks for the vid, is this your voice or a voice changer?

[@WestCoastR1der]

I was 4 seconds away from running out of time

[@spidyplayz3841]

Rook checkmate is one of the easiest if you know what you are doing.

[@bernardthefourth]

Ah just lost on time trying to figure this out thanks.

[@قناةالليقمجاوي]

He always dosent leave a chance for me to tighten when hes trapped in 3 squeares when i move my king up he goes sideweys when i move my king sideway he goes up

[@rizanaakther5528]

Thx I was playing chess and i have only rook and my opponent lost all of his pieces but i don't know how to place checkmate with rook Then i minimize the app and watched your video and boom checkmate 😂😂😂

[@Neversr82]

I stalemated cuz I thought the king and queen mate would work with the room instead of the queen

[@onedragoon]

I one rook end game i have to premove

[@Ken_710]

I came here when there was 30 seconds left in the match and now it's a draw. :(

[@ianjohnson171]

This only works if your opponent doesn't know what they're doing and puts their king in front of yours

[@andrewcrane5105]

Very cool, I like things that make me cooler 😎

[@mncdssctn9110]

When time is not a factor, I almost prefer to use a rook rather than a queen. I don’t trust myself to not walk into a stalemate.

[@hyemster2274]

when using queen, just make sure when king is on the edge of the board, the queen is not placed in knight position

[@EitanV1]

thanks. never gonna draw because in this situation again 😅

[@yashu1703]

Bro please tell me where i can practice theses moves like in this video, because in real game it is rare to get same situation...i mean is there any app or something where in can practice them just by only keeping both king and rook in the board and deleting other pieces 😢

[@shreejitparmar339]

There is an app called Leeches .. you can create your own game and play vs a friend or computer

[@yashu1703]

Bro make your Channel name easier like - Chess escapes, or anything better because channel is not shown in search feed untill correct spelling is written

if you type chesscape it doesnt show the channel at all?

[@Sajid009]

I just missed win in a match cuz of the 50 move rule cuz I didn't know to mate with rook

[@ACTINGSTAR77]

Why king can't cancel the rook diagonally

[@appl3thegr3at64]

king protects rook

[@BloxyBaconNoob]

What if the king never goes in the corner

[@appl3thegr3at64]

it's checkmate

[@crazyguyhaha7209]

What happens if the king doesn't meet your king and instead he just moves right and left

[@calm_2123]

Make waiting move with rook

[@chessscape]

you just play a waiting move with your king until you can move the rook to make the box tighter

[@crazyguyhaha7209]

@@chessscape ohhh okayyy ty

[@Learningwithabhinav]

Reply with "❤️" on this comment chessscape to prove that you actually read your comments

[@chessscape]

i real all comments my friend 😉

[@plazima]

As a blind person I think you should say where they are moving to more often ❤️

[@chessscape]

the reason why i dont give the coordinates more often is because i feel most people dont know them so they get lost with them. I will definitely try my best to explain better so you can follow 🙏🏼

[@plazima]

👍 thank you

[@joshtrd]

@plazima just curious do you envision the board in your head or play via the coordinates?
