In every international toournament they follow the same rule as lichess. Makes no sense for me why US chess would that to themselves, it's confusing for their own players..
I was also confused when I lost a game similar to this due to time. I think I had a pawn and the opponent a knight. My logic was that, if the king can't make any moves, then he can be killed by the other piece regardless (imagine white king and rook doesn't move at all and black have infinite moves, he can of course kill the king with the knight). Guess I was wrong.
You are incorrect, white does have sufficient material to checkmate. That is the important distinction, whether it is possible for white to win. Time to delete my Ccom account after I verify this.
I never understood the Lichess ruleset logic. If your time runs out that means theoretically you're not allowed to move anymore right? So how can you then (as in this case) move your king and rook into the exact positions needed to deliver checkmate with only the knight? Makes little sense to me
Lichess one makes more sense tbh. If you're going to get all nuanced and not just have timeouts always being a win, you gotta do it right. If a mate is possible, regardless of how bad the play would have to be to lead to it, it should be taken into account.
Ok, ok, so using miles, pounds and Fahrenheit wasn't enough for the US… they also have their own chess subtleties that aren't considered internationally.

Why do Americans have to change everything, it's really silly and there are absolutely zero good reasons…
Lichess Ruleee
A self mate could happen you canβt consider that the best moves are always played
Cus with that same logic all the worst moves could be played
Do you coach I need help but I canβt spend $100 an hour
so when hikaru protested the 2 knights vs king and game was he in the right?

Thanks π I prefer lichess because it's easier to sign up and user friendly π
you DO CAN checkmate with Knight+King vs Rook and King!
Lichess the best
Would rather play international rules than US rules tbh.
I remember this happened to levy where he had 2 knights in the end and chesscom gave draw π
oh so thats why
Wow i play chess for 6 years and i didnt know this π
Why does America have its own rules ?

Yeah have you not seen the legendary tantrum lol
I'm tired of the US changing the rules of every game.
Knowing the rules
Black should have sac'd his rook to secure the draw if he was about to lose on time
Horde is a great game, is it even on other sites?
I donβt understand. What do you mean by flagging the pieces?
It s funnier with king bishop vs king bishop of opposite colors π
Viva france
As a bullet enjoer it is really frustrating for me, when I don't get a win on Chess com, with a single knight/bishop. So much halfpoints were missed…

That's pretty interesting!
White can get a checkmate. So it was a win
The rule should be in-between both of them. It should be a win, but instead of 1-0 it's 0.75-0.25
Recently, Firouzja lost a game by clock when Carlsen only had the King and one bishop because of the same logic explained here of Lichess.
ok lmao
Sorry what does it mean to have a piece flagged?
Place pieces on:
Black – Kh8 Rg8
White – Kh6 Nf7#
With that smile you look like a rat. Awful
In rapid about 400 points.

Why you look like Daniel Thrasher
what does flag your opponent mean?
A new example of the Us not following what everybody does just because.
Lichess one makes more sense tbh. If you're going to get all nuanced and not just have timeouts always being a win, you gotta do it right. If a mate is possible, regardless of how bad the play would have to be to lead to it, it should be taken into account.
I wonder if someone has ever managed to mate someone with a knight against a rook like in the example at 0:24
Fide good, uscf bad
If you got flagged you should be be considered in the worst possible position so lichens rules are better
Miles, pounds, millions, stupid chess rules
Lichess is not a company, its a NPO.
Interesting
I still don't get it, what does "flagged their opponent's pieces" mean?
Yet another reason lichess is better to play on.
Thx

I got flagged with pawn vs knight in lichess, thought it was a draw and got mad when I lost
