Spectator room
- glbert
go ysgwydd! - glbert
i think the e5 pawn might have fallen if it was attacked around move 14/15 or so. - glbert
tranzoo, are you streaming? - Red_Pandaz
(22.Rfc1) i guess Rfc1, trade the rooks off and play the bishop vs knight endgam - Tranzoo
no glbert - Tranzoo
tomorrow, my game - Tranzoo
I am just obsercving - Red_Pandaz
(26.f4) now this becomes extremly difficult - Red_Pandaz
(27...Ke6) maybe black is just winning - Red_Pandaz
(27...Ke6) but i cant calculate this - Red_Pandaz
(28.Ke3) or can white stop him from flanking - Red_Pandaz
(29.g3) was fxg5 hxg5 and Kd4 not better - Red_Pandaz
(29...b6) they playing this so fast - Red_Pandaz
(29...b6) white can play fxg5 hxg5 Kd4 still - Red_Pandaz
(29...b6) that looks winning for white instead - Red_Pandaz
(30...f6) ex kx fx hx kd4 ke5 and white creates the passer on the kingside to win - glbert
way too fast - Tranzoo
so is f6 just a mistake? - Red_Pandaz
(30...f6) I think they both blundered it back and forth - Red_Pandaz
(30...f6) but white is winning here for sure - Red_Pandaz
(30...f6) the previous positions were really unclear to me tho - Tranzoo
yeah this feels now that even I can see the problems :-D - Hesperian
He can still just take here Kd4 and he has f5 no? - glbert
wow - Tranzoo
nevermind then - Red_Pandaz
(32...a5) now you have to calculate the tempo very carefully - glbert
a5 has to be a mistake. - Hesperian
g4!!! - Tranzoo
I mean endgames are hard - Hesperian
Yes! - Red_Pandaz
(33.g4) king and pawn endgames are really hard - glbert
endgames are hard, especially if you play them without thinking. - Red_Pandaz
(33.g4) needs really deep calculation - Tranzoo
well with endgames I sometimes feel like thinking doesnt help me - Tranzoo
but maybe thats just my laziness - Tranzoo
anyway, what now? - Red_Pandaz
(33.g4) so I think white still wins here because black will have to step away from the d pawn - glbert
i think endgames are the only phase of the game where thinking helps me. - Hesperian
Black apparently thinks this is blitz because hes about to lose a drawn endgame with 50 mins to spare - Red_Pandaz
(33.g4) or no wait - Red_Pandaz
(33.g4) yes - glbert
maybe black can play b5. - Red_Pandaz
(33.g4) b5 i had thought a4 but black has c4, so instead - Red_Pandaz
(33.g4) b5 a3 - Tranzoo
but jut a3, right? - Tranzoo
yeah - glbert
yeah, a3. - Red_Pandaz
(33...b5) i think a3 has to be played - Tranzoo
and you will be the one zuged - Tranzoo
will they play it? - Tranzoo
guess the move anyone? - glbert
plausible, it's the only move that makes any sense. - glbert
well, maybe they will play a4 instead. - Tranzoo
Kc5 - Red_Pandaz
(33...b5) only if they spend some damn time - Tranzoo
I am guessing Kc5 - Red_Pandaz
(33...b5) Kc5 loses ha - glbert
kc5 is bonkers. - Tranzoo
I know - Red_Pandaz
(33...b5) lol - Tranzoo
I am just trying to think how I could lose the game if I have that kind of day - Tranzoo
Kc5 it is - glbert
but that is the beauty of guess the move. - Red_Pandaz
(33...b5) Still unsure if black had a win before, will have to check engine - glbert
no, my money is on a3. it's not that hard to see and they spend time. - Tranzoo
realistically what other move is there to look at though, here we go - Tranzoo
nice - glbert
and glbert wins again. - Tranzoo
ok and one more move - Tranzoo
still can go wrong - glbert
ax :D - Red_Pandaz
(34...b4) now make sure its a4 and not ax haha - Tranzoo
glbert is that your guess? - Tranzoo
ax? - glbert
it's my hope. - Hesperian
He takes doubtless - Tranzoo
I think a4 now - Tranzoo
this one is too obvious now - glbert
i think a4 too. - Tranzoo
just one move ahead - glbert
a3 makes no sense otherwise. - glbert
you don't play a3 and then ax. - Hesperian
A4 is objectively worse no? - Tranzoo
nice - glbert
good game, well played. - Tranzoo
a4 wins hespe we think - Hesperian
How is a4 better than takes? - Tranzoo
because the king is zuged - glbert
takes loses. - Tranzoo
and d pawn falls - Tranzoo
and thats ballgame - glbert
a4 wins. - Tranzoo
if takes takes white is zuged probably, right? - Hesperian
Oh right its whites move lol - Hesperian
Im stupid - Tranzoo
gg - Red_Pandaz
yep like 5 blunders in a row ha - Red_Pandaz
shits hard, harder when not using the time - ysgwydd
Not a great performance. - glbert
lol at sf saying 34...h5 was best. - Red_Pandaz
h5 is ineed a hard find, but instructive - ysgwydd
Maybe I would have been able to save it if I used more time, but pawn endgames is a bit of a mystery to me - glbert
30...h5 is a hard find. - glbert
34...h5 is dumb. - glbert
it may take longer for white to mate there according to sf, but the win is even easier to see, there's literally nothing white can do wrong - WhiteRiceMatters
I almost played takes at the end without thinking assuming it was the samebecause I assumed it was the same good thing I double checked - glbert
34...b4 at least gave white the chance to take and throw the game away - Red_Pandaz
i dont think h5 is a wild computer move tho - Red_Pandaz
looking to freeze the pawns - glbert
34...h4? but nobody will allow you to freeze those pawns. the first thing white will look at is taking. - glbert
*34...h5 - Red_Pandaz
ahhh it makes my f6 idea work - Red_Pandaz
because if you go f6 without h5 then exf6 gxf6 and g4 - Red_Pandaz
but h5 stops g4 in that line so white needs h3 to prepare g4. But, h3 fails to h4 - Red_Pandaz
making the draw is very hard - Red_Pandaz
for black - ysgwydd
At move 15 and 21 I had some opportunity to put some pressure by attacking some pawns. But sadly I played to passively - WhiteRiceMatters
29 g3 was silly I had the time to think it just felt right in my mind and for some reason I was feeling a bit impulsive - WhiteRiceMatters
if I just looked at fxg5 I would have seen how promising it looks
