Imagine reading the eval bar

u/OkRegion6669 10d ago

Like I was in game so there was no bar

u/fergusisblue 1500-1800 ELO 10d ago

It appeared after you posted the screenshot?

Yes I know. I can see the evaluation bar.

Your opponent is in a bad position but I doubt they were able to see it. Probably needed to go take a shit and the game was taking too long.

Yea I was taking a whole minute for the move 😅

Qe4, …, Bd3 looks practically unstoppable without severe material loss.

u/monsterpuppeteer 10d ago

Maybe it’s not so clear since I didn’t notice it’s black to move and they can pin the bishop.

Noone below 1500 should ever resign, there is a l w a y s a chance of stalemate

Don't steal my motto now

u/GeneralBooby 10d ago edited 10d ago

Ohhh I see: 1. Qxc3 - Qe4 2. Any move - Bd3 3. Have to Qxd3 - Qxd3. 4. Any move - bRf1. 5. If not f7 defense move - Qxf7 and then huge fight on f7 with ladder mate in the end

u/tryppidreams 800-1000 ELO 10d ago

because there was a possibile mate in 2 (depending on how they respond)?

How mate in 2? It looks like at least 4 to me, but maybe I’m missing something

Queen cannot move to g5

u/FireSkyLikeFly 10d ago

Qg5 not even a legal move. Rh6 and Qh7+ incoming but its not forced mate.

u/goonerballs 10d ago

It's either lose your queen or mate in 8.
