I'm only half-way in, but I feel like your first move should be moving the king instead of pawns. That forces your opponent to play into your pawn line and gives you material without leaving pawns hanging so much? Besides, it makes it far better for later in the game, as your King can be on the safe side of the board while you attack with the other side.

What about 2 rows of bishops vs 5 queens? Or how every many you need to beat stockfish

That was neat how SF got the queen into the game each time, waiting for a pawn move that leaves another pawn undefended..

Technically all you need is 2 pawns, one at e6, and the other at either c6 or g6, for a mate in one. The only reason adding more pawns helped is because they are placed right in front of black's pieces in a way that causes an instant mate. Filling the 1st rank with 7 pawns does not even increase white's advantage.

Pretty sure you could just win by maintaining a better Phalanx structure and moving everything up together. You keep losing Pawns 2x1 in the early going because you leave a secondary pawn undefended after an initial capture. After 2-3 instances of that, you wind up with too much of a hole to defend easily. You exacerbate the problem by not switching sides as well. A & H file pawns also suffer from the same problem, as they're harder to defend. You're better off pushing B/C & F/G. EDIT: You learned the Phalanx issue in the game @ 6:30, but kept pushing A/H & committing to your ragged side. ~ 8:30 You stopped pushing A/H, but are still allowing too many 2x1 and tunneling on your weak files.

I just wanted to say if you're playing with maximum bot. That's not stockfish its komodo. But the evaluation is definetly stockfish.

Nice video thanks. One question about your last game: Just before stockfish played queen E3, have you considered pawn C5?

You could try experimenting with the number of kings. Slowly replacing stockfish’s pieces with kings. They’re powerful pieces, but you’d have more mating opportunities.

I would check how many pawns stockfish needs to beat you. That way you could checkmate stockfish many times and get some happy feelings. For example start with stockfish having only 16 pawns, then add the amount you think makes sense based on how easy it was to win.

@Sneeit

Жыл бұрын

I think 32 is at least. I realized that 2 pawns can be traded for a piece in my vid so 32+ is the only way to win. But we will try the reverse game next time.

At the end of the video I realized that I could beat stockfish with five pawns. Give black the starting position and place white pawns on g6, g5, f6, f5 and e5. I could even mate stockfish with two pawns. One on e6 and the other on g6.

Me: uncomfortable playing with doubled pawns. This guy:

16:50 technically you won here if stalemate wasn’t a thing if the black king was obligated to move (that rule about not moving in check not existing) then you definitely won

Surely you don't need all those pawns in that last scenario that was mate in four. What's the minimum number of pawns to force that end?

@danielyuan9862

Жыл бұрын

For that specific mate, you needed 6 pawns, one to break in to f7, one to play g6, one to take on g6, one more to defend g6 after the other pawn takes, one to defend the pawn on f6, and the f6 pawn to play the final mating move. But in reality, you only need two pawns: one on e6 and one on g6.

how do you play like this? I want to play against stockfish while seeing the evaluation as well. That would be SO helpful! Please someone explain :) Google won't give me anything here.

I think you should be able to win with just the 32 pawns, if you are careful. In any case, you have a guaranteed draw if you want it. I believe Hikaru showed that there is a bug in the program. if it thinks it is winning, it may sacrifice material before allowing 3-fold repetition, or the 50 move draw.
