You had the fork sooner, Qg7. But thank you for this, it was very instructive!

[@sabiancanez7627]

When?

[@joaopauloamorim6383]

Qg7 you lose your queen???

[@YY-mk4ti]

It's Qg8 not g7

[@TunaBagels]

He had Qg8+ with a fork, you can see he even draws the arrow. (Typo, not Qg7)

[@TunaBagels]

It's the second last move when he said "he can't go here" and even draws the arrow at the winning fork! He's too caught up in the pattern

[@GaryTheGray]

I've never had it explained to me before. That's beautiful!

[@gaurichess]

Thanks Gary!

This hurts me so bad. I should have watched this before getting that rook vs queen endgame with catspurrov bot and now I’m still beating myself up over that stupid idiotic stalemate that I managed to make.

[@manthespoon]

[@via-silence]

very nice you could have forked it in two ways either the way you did it or on the last move you check on g8 i think

[@comradelovespain5714]

Bro he went to g8

[@comradelovespain5714]

Since this is from black's perspective his queen was on g8 when he forked the king and rook wasn't it

[@via-silence]

​@@comradelovespain5714 either perspectives you can fork in 2 ways on g8 if you're watching as the bottom of the board is where white start's the game or on b1 if you're watching as the bottom is where black start's the game or just in the way he did it

[@mithril4912]

0:47 I don't understand... why can't you play Qg8 directly? Isn't that a clean fork that leads to mate in 3 with Qxh7 Qb7 Qb5# ?

[@gaurichess]

It’s the same thing as what i did. Im showing the full zigzag pattern for teaching purposes

[@mithril4912]

@@gaurichess ah gotchya!

[@omarmessi2730]

Why you said you can’t go to b2 wouldn’t it be the same fork?

That's g7

[@bullys1lent]

ends up in stalemate

[@Sjorezz]

“you can’t go here” haha this was the best move in that position (winning a Rook and consequently checkmate). You could have also said “this is the best move but I want to show you another move because i want to show you guys a pattern

[@sojufighter8451]

Just a note, when the white king was on the back rank and your queen was on the light squares, you could've gone and taken the rook earlier

[@imaadf2956]

no he couldnt

[@sojufighter8451]

@imaadf2956 couldn't check the king on the back rank on the light squares and taken the rook next turn? Watch it again because he draws the diag and says he can't but he can

[@honestpanda4933]

It's the same no way of moves

[@RuTream]

The white king zigged, when he should have zagged.

[@miauw8762]

Could have taken the rook a move earlier by checking the king. Thought he was going for that lol

[@gaurichess]

What i showed is the standard zig zag method that is written in all the chess books. And every move was a check so your comment didn’t specify anything

[@keeqho9528]

@@gaurichess He’s saying that you did an extra zig zag you didn’t have to do, after playing b3 to a2, you could of played a2 to h8, then take the rook.

[@espvp]

Why after Qa2+ he said he can't go Qg8+? I'm probably missing something, but it seems like a shorter route to win the rook.

[@raiikagaming]

i think so too

Slower mate, I think

​@@juanholad it's the same position after he takes the rook anyway?

​@@LostInSpace9Becuase he can then win after taking the rook? Unless you found an immediate checkmate, I'm sure taking the rook is a good idea? I know it's obvious, but stating that the obvious is wrong when it's right doesn't make you smart.
