get rid of my bad bishop that light square bishop was no good to me okay regroup man regroup they had a what am i trying to say i'm still trying to recover from the last game to be honest i need a breather give me a breather man time out for breather there should be a breather button where's the breather button oh i thought i thought a chess network was playing in this tournament no he's taking a breather oh get out of there queen shoo shoo go away oh man maybe they'll revisit this square [Laughter] might as well try it a second time right never okay yeah i had a freebie queen a freebie queen and a freebie pawn could have captured the rook okay i still have control that's the big thing here i got control okay maybe now we could finally pick up a pawn uh let's take here the rook is pinned and let's just scoot up scoot up okay i'll grab a pawn and play here queen trade stopping that i'll go pac-man i'll go pac-man mode careful they only have 10 seconds queen trade i'm covering their flight square let's run with the pawn keep going queen trade three seconds queen trade there we go and then oh look at the trickiness look at the trickiness or was that a mouse slip back to tournament all right i'm on page two i'm all tangled up here with my audio okay here we go here we go here we go knight f3 c4 what's 97 about we're going to find out let's just go here i don't want to take and open up this uh door for the bishop so they're crazy to take this pun okay how does this knight get out how does he ever do anything exciting c5 is a good move maybe i should have replied with the d5 a night move with an attack against the queen it's just castle let's hang on to him a3 b4 is an idea and now just even to support my knight let's still go here or not hmm let's just get them moving all right how are they completing development um i guess we'll just double up oh that's such a bother okay a knight here and here pretty annoying oh my god my time you gotta be kidding you gotta be kidding i'm on the rook i should be jumping in here why have i not done that and queen here and it's the ball game no let's go here first and then try to make that night move move night you know you want to move we got mate jeez where did my time go with that one what was i thinking about i don't know i just don't know where my time went with that one okay ultimate have not played this guy before it's a scary account scary account okay let's see what we get against the ultimate gamer pick up my light square bishop i don't care about him knight takes pawn look at the sneakiness oh try this next breakdown f4 let's do it uh okay let's go here key in on these squares oh this challenge that night it's a good piece i'm gonna push yeah hmm [Music] how do i make progress running the corner this really isn't the the greatest way forward i'm uh gonna get smashed let's try this i'm gonna hop into c3 ah bishop takes pawn okay queen you have a big task huh my rook needs to help oh boy uncle uncle i'm defending b1 i get some trades here do i have everything covered though oh where's my time oh no it's a scary time it's a very scary time good job knight you're just barely doing the trick i just want to get rid of that it's a losing idea i need to rely on a silly night now it's not going to work it's not working not even close oh i'm so down on time oh their bishop on g2 was a beast and a half oh man he did it all that bishop on g2 killer killer defender killer attacker what was he not doing okay i'm threatening to win material okay yeah i could take first i'm winning a pawn here though holy cow the guy in first has 17. all right knight has to block and i could just take him i'm winning a piece um i don't know here that seems like a square black really wants so let's take it away grab some space threatening a fork got it and they don't even get my knife back bishop on c3 let's get this knight doing something else take away b4 and i guess just here and push the pawn let's do it and get the rook at the end oh let's just push this guy i guess we'll hang on to the bishop for a moment that night isn't going to bother me no stalemates no stalemates right here and then here i'll do the trick all right back to tournament where do we stand page two i have 10 15 minutes left 111 in here holy cow again all right he's throwing a different uh he's going with the queen side fiend keto okay gotta pick up this the pace for sure and uh yeah skill pace and skill i guess we'll go here first and then here alrighty are we ready to get some exchanges let's try for it let's get one rook off uh i could still go here hmm see if they take that pun why not why not okay don't know if i'll be able to hold this one i'm gonna try though um let's go here see what kind of progress they could make down a pound but i have the better bishop i want to keep the bishop behind maybe that's a pawn i could target now let's see control that square give a check i could take this pawn if their king goes too far i'll step up with the king can i get up on i got a pawn now if anyone could win it's me uh probably a draw yeah i'll accept a draw i'm down on time okay um well that's really gonna hurt for trying to get uh podium lands but yeah this is the probably just the best that i could do with that game okay do i have to go for cheap tricks i might need to start uh going for some cheap tricks are they called for here maybe maybe [Laughter] i'm just gonna get just gonna get forked playing like that that's all that's gonna happen get rid of that guy let's go here and then here good commentary good commentary that's what you're here for let's go here and then here i'm going to try that who's saying i'm going to try that man okay let's play d5 send the queen back all right going all in i get here can't stop me um still gonna jump in do i get the g to the g file faster i think i do my knight's pretty sweet on that f5 score i gotta say i'm loving the knight f5 uh i gotta take here and i win some material no i love seeing the queen and king on the same file oh i'll still go here though give up the exchange i know i should just kept it simpler mine i can move and pick up the queen no matter where she goes i love that i love that discover check doesn't matter where the queenie goes she's gone pick your favorite where do you want to go night on a dark square moves and attacks a dark square boom pins double attack let's take care my bishop's even there to cover now we sweep over sneak in and then go here no matter what boom back to tournament land i'm still on page 2 or 13 i see queen master and 11th who's in first not me somebody with 26 armin guy played in round one is having a good tournament all right i need to get another game in fourser where are the fours i got no fours one four far too many far too few fours all right here we go throw that bad guy outside the pawn chain trades more trades uh we're gonna shoot him away and jump in here no we're not we're gonna run it like this here all right i'll take your bad bishop i'm gonna fight for control of this file see how you deal with that let's hit the queen first and i'll even go and save the bishop i like him okay backward development i still need a flight square i guess we have to go here and you're going to superglue your knight in there okay i have to break up these pawns let's do it let's take here put pressure on this guy i need a flight square i need a flight square um i guess this is the flight square my rook is having a blast over here let me tell you a blast blockading this pawn not really gotta take at this point or do i hmm oh i think i have to do this and then go here tough date the office for me oh slipping around slipping around take there i have to be slippery i don't want it to i don't want them to be able to pre-move so easily i get there i need a time burn my way no not there no you sneaky guy oh where's the fire man where's the fire eight minutes left i got 14. oh man a sneak artist ah sneak artist he nabbed my rook before his time fell ah sneaky guy man sneaky guy so slippery man so slippery unbelievably slippery you're exaggerating again okay let's put a pawn in the center how about you afraid to put a pawn in the center every once in a while how about two two is better than one you gonna sacrifice here no you're gonna go there all right how can i oh i'll take that knight where's the bishop move with check there's none careful careful i just did tactics shortly uh just a little a little while ago and there was some fanciness like this fanciness um [Music] i got two pieces on this where are you going wow i wonder if i can move a little slower can we move a little slower oh i got that covered two bishops two bishops where's the mate where are you going king check let's go here set up a discover check that's not stalemate hang out this one they're resigning back to tournament where am i at 19th with 16. oh i just want a four i

let's get some space on the queen side i guess my knight's gonna drift over here and how about a queen let's see if they take here all right now now we're breaking stuff down we're taking here run pawns do some damage push oh just give this pawn back queenside castle let's just take him out push what's that about queen here mate i'll still go here why not oh give another check keep going pawns
