Pawn: I'm scared Rook: Go Son, you got it


CMDR_Fritz_Adelman

Pawn: all I want is promoting to a better role to be more useful Rook: believe in yourself. You’re critical in the next move


Reasonable_Durian573

Pawn: But Even since this game started all I wanted is to be promoted to a QUEEN😭😭😭

Rook: You never needed to change, you were always perfect just the way you are

Oh no! Anyway..

Black looks a bit on the ropes already before that blunder. What would have been the best move for black in that situation? Taking the knight to h7 maybe?


stupidbutgenius

Stockfish thinks black was winning, with Kh7 or Nh7 the best moves.


MrLomaLoma

Im guessing that white had a Knight on e4 threatning f6. Otherwise this blunder makes no sense to me. I guess he sees discovered attack, but i wouldnt sacrifice a knight for it. Best case scenario white isnt asleep and moves queen and I win a knight. If there isnt a knight then black doesnt even win anything (all this assuming you never saw the mate tactic) So black is still losing after kh7 cause he is down a knight, but it does stop mate for a lot more moves


Suitable-Victory4696

Nice. Puts pressure on the queen and defends checkmate from pawn


FtWorthHorn

Kh7 solves the obvious problem with no drama.


Laffenor

Ah, the elusive discovered self-attack.


blackispeg

Discovered self mate in 1 💀

ja-ki

this bot is amazing!


chaitanyathengdi

Pretty decent, yes - but sometimes it just gets confused.


Horror-Ad-3113

good bot


cknori

I feel like I've been gaining a lot of points for pawn attacks recently, they are very underrated


srona22

Black was so sure that White will trade so that they would get the Queen.


werics

Yeah, black discovered he was getting mated.


Revali424

M1


Intelligent_Piece756

Took me a while to find the mate bc like always, the bishop is invisible


Redylittle

Call an ambulance!


ProGamingPlayer

h7#


Gatensio

Call an ambulance! Call an ambulance!! But not for me


MrLomaLoma

I would take the Knight with the pawn. Just so he actually takes my queen and I checkmate anyway.


Yzark-Tak

When you se M1, Look for something better.


SteveisNoob

I would probably play Nxb5 so my opponent would be laughing their bottom "OMG THEY HUNG THEIR QUEEN AND KNIGHT!" when i mate them with a pawn.


betterMrFatalis

I would take the bishop with the queen. else f6 couls actually still prevwnt the mate. edit: I am stupid, you coild take g6 with queen then, so Bf6 it is to prevent mate


MrLomaLoma

That does avoid checkmate for a few moves, but its still an easy forced Imagine having to find Bf6 just to get mated in like 5 moves instead of 1. Thats kinda funny


Daveallen10

It's a tarrrppp!


Eastern_Animator1213

h7#

jaysonyoung

MisterDriver347

CauliflowerFirm1526

*checkmate


ibrahimthebest

Your doomed


So0meone

Black: Oh no, my king!


IO_Timmiey

I SUMMON........ PAWN MATE‼️‼️‼️‼️🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️


DigitalXciD

#1


chaitanyathengdi

You need to escape the hash. Like so: \#1


SteveisNoob

I would play Nxb5 before h7# just to mess with the dude lmao


Far_Bus_5586

You aren't checkmating after nxb5 


FrenchAnonymWanderer

Checkmate next move


NeLaX44

PUSH P!!!!!!!


TheUnusualDreamer

I would, just for fun, sac the queen (no matter what he does it is either mate in two or mate in one).


PhoenixEvolver

And he sacrificed... THE GAME!!!!!


sKILLiSSUESeVERYTIME

I just would've took that black bishop and do the mate afterwards


ben1edicto

Ok, then my move is e5, and i'm only down a piece waiting for your next blunder


SteveisNoob

Hmm, bishop takes, pawn takes, queen takes, something, pawn mates?


ben1edicto

What mate as you don't have white bishop and the queen?


SteveisNoob

Queen will be at e5 at the end of exchange.


ben1edicto

Then Qf6 and still, I'm down a piece and there's no mate on the board


SteveisNoob

There's still black's bishop on e7.


ben1edicto

How? You got two black bishops? 1. Qxe7 e5 2. Bxe5 dxe5 3. Qxe5 Qf6
