Allow me to remind you that you are a hero to so many children especially black children, you are their inspirations so... it requires great responsibility on your part not to let them down. Good luck on your chess and God Bless You.

  • @ 2:59 GM Maurice Ashley says "How can you do that?" because he wants to win a free pawn by playing 25. ..., Bxd4 because of the pinned bishop on e3. Incredibly though, even in bullet time controls, he spots the reason it can't be played: 26. Bxd4, Rxe1?? 27. Ra8+, Re8 28. Rxe8+, Kh7 29. Rh8# He realizes this after he has already picked up the bishop so the touch rule forces him to play the bishop anyway. He chooses 25. ..., Bf6.

    • At the timestamp it seems like he can take the pawn his bishop is attacking for free since the white bishop defending it is pinned (can't move without dropping the rook). In reality, if he takes the pawn and the rook immediately, he loses the game on the spot because it's a forced checkmate.

  • At 3:00 ..Rxa5 was a nice tactical shot as it seems Bishop can win pawn on d4 due to pin on rook on e1. Maurice even picks bishop but then realises that there is a nice tactical shot .. if Bxd4 then Bxd4 Rxe1 Ra8+ Kh7 followed by Rh8# is checkmate..he realises that, therefore puts the bishop back down and says "How can you do that"? Later at 3:40 however he does get the same Bxd4.

    @DLG444@DLG4443 жыл бұрын
  • There is a nice moment in this game : at 3:00 ...Bxd4 seems to win at least a crucial pawn for black since Bxd4 Rxe1 loses the rook...but then Ra8+ Kh7 Rh8# and white wins ! Maurice maybe wanted to play Bxd4 but after some calculations he placed his bishop back on g7 and played Bf6 instead.
