I Played Chess with a Frozen King... It Was a Nightmare

Tamara. Yes. It's so rare to face another woman. Okay, go easy on me, all right? I've been rusty. Okay, what's your rating? Currently, it's 19.19. You're so good. Oh, I have not played for a long time. Okay, so there we go. That's your advantage. Listen, I'm very tricky, especially in Blitz, but this thing is trickier. So you get a spin and it can land wherever, like, that is, I have to play without the queen, which would give me fairly enough no chance. Oh boy. So please spin kindly, okay? All right, all right. Go ahead. All right, let's just give a quick spin. Oh, what is that? Frozen king? So my king cannot move at all. At all? Whole entire game, you mean? For the entire game, meaning that if you kind of check and I cannot stop the check, I lose the game. Oh, that's interesting. Okay. Because it's checkmate, right? My king cannot move away. Okay. All right. This king is frozen here. Sure. Okay. All right. That's interesting. Let's see. Okay, let's go. All right. Boom. Okay. I'm trying to, you know, to get to your king. My king. All right. Let's see. Not sure what should I do because there's like a variety of things I can do, but it's been a while. Okay. Let's do this. Okay. Okay. French. Yep. I will go for the close. All right. Sounds good to me. At least if I keep the center close, the king should be less in danger. All right. Let's see. It's usually the case, right? There's like two variations I can do. I might say six right away, I guess. It's been a while. Okay. Let's do this. Okay. So my king cannot move, right? That's what she told me. It's good here. Do I do this? I don't know. Yeah. I can't move my king. Right. But I can cover. You can cover. At least for now. Sure. Sure. Sure. Sure. I usually don't play the advanced French, but I had to adapt. All right. Yeah. I'm not going to take en passant. No? No. No. The more I can keep the position close, the better I feel. So good. I guess that makes sense at some point. Sure. Yes, ma'am. Yes, ma'am. Okay. Let's get this bishop out. Very good. So since I can't castle, I need to find a different path for this rook. I know what you want. Just kidding. Why did you went back? You should stay and, you know, keep me company. I mean, you are coming forward, so you're chilling right now. You're absolutely doing fine. Look at this attacking player. Me? Of me? I don't know. What are you talking about? I mean, you go aggressive with your pawn. I left a free pawn, by the way. That's beautiful. Oh my God. You're so kind. I guess she doesn't want it. No, I don't. Unfortunately, I have other plans if it's going to work. I'm happy for you. Thank you. Thank you. Well, we're going to use this rook. I'm trying to checkmate you. Oh, I didn't know that. That's the only thing I can do. I want to suck. Do you think it's gonna be bad? Yes. Do it. Sacrifice everything. I won't accept your offer. I'm not interested. I have one goal. Tamara, this is very tricky what you're doing. It's interesting. It's very interesting. See, my problem is that I like to think a lot. Yeah, think, Tamara. Think. Think more. This is bad. That's mate, because I can't move it here. Good job. That knight sacrifice. Yeah, I was looking to do it earlier. I didn't have any more protection to my king. That was awesome. You did really punish me the way it should have been done. Good job. That was really good. Thank you, Tamara. You're welcome. Thank you. If you enjoyed this, you will love this game of spin chess. My grandmaster husband versus a prodigy kid. And after the spin, Noelle was left with just 60 seconds for the entire game. Very exciting. Check it out. See you next time.
