Can two Grandmasters beat the engine from a +2.5 position?

GM Vahap Sanal and GM Cem Kaan Gokerkan try to convert the position together against SnowPawnBot, discussing ideas, candidate moves, and mistakes along the way.

Fantastic concept to hear 2 GMs calculating complex position, love it! but please next time try drawing each position you discuss as it was difficult to follow sometimes

harika bir içerik olmuş. ingilizce olması da global için oldukça makul ben anlayabildiğim için çok keyif aldım ama vaktiniz olursa altyazı koymanız en azından şu an için takipçi kitlenizi oluşturan türklerin izlenmesiyle ivme kazandırır. lütfen devam et saydığın isimleri dört gözle bekliyoruz. yağızı da bu işe ikna edebilirsen tadından yenmez. başarılar adaş.

when i solve a puzzle i always continue the possition against engine... and most time i loss lol... but i am a very low level player

This feels like being able to use observation learning on "do the puzzle/skill under uncertainty of whether it's even present or not", while also showing how the GMs are summarizing it, and showing where their thought processes are similar/different in where they're pruning/not pruning calculation/strategizing. Honestly this might be one of the most valuable chess videos I've seen. The position is so basic but so difficult and I never know how to approach situations like it or if I'm doing it efficiently

I am a basic person. If I see CKG on a video, I watch it.

Açıkçası uzun zamandır satrançta böyle bir içerik bekliyordum. Ve bunu yaptığınız için her ikinize de teşekkürler. Keşke yökdil sınavından önce olsaydı 🥲 yabancı kanallarda ki kişileri ve kişiliklerini bilmediğim için takip edemiyordum ancak oyunu ve fikirlerinizi takip etmekte zorlanmadım. Nihayet video hakkında şunu da söylemek istiyorum; bir yerde pasif bir fikir bulduğunuz için göze ilk çarpan at hamlesini oynamadınız. İşte ben satrançta nerede olduğumu orada anladım😅 "hamle aynı anda bir çok şey yapıp, talepkar olmalı"
I guess that is all. I can't wait that next video.

by the way there is a connection in between figurative painting of our geography and two Gms playing
