Featured is a crushing chess game between LeelaKnightOdds and Grandmaster Awonder Liang (A-Liang on lichess). Playing White without a king knight, Leela enters a Queen’s Gambit Declined, Exchange Variation. After several kingside pawn advances, it becomes clear that Leela’s king will find safety on the queenside. Liang anticipates this and quickly opens that wing. With opposite-side castling, the game turns into a sharp race. Liang defends precisely, then launches a devastating queenside attack, delivering checkmate in just 30 moves!

I’m a self-taught National Master in chess out of Pennsylvania, USA who was introduced to the game by my father in 1988 at the age of 8. The purpose of this channel is to share my knowledge of chess to help others improve their game. I enjoy continuing to improve my understanding of this great game, albeit slowly.
