An Old 14th variation that leads to a fantastic finish!

Hello Ryan... Great analysis as always.. I want to share a game with you today.. It is a natural loss in the single corner opening and i have seen players of every class fall for this natural gameplay trap. White will start 11-15 and red will reply 22-18 (natural loss for red)
After the exchanges follows 8-11, 29-25, 4-8, 25-22, 12-16, 24-20(common gameplay), 8-12, 27-24, 10-14, 24-19, 7-10, 28-24 (32-27 is much better, not natural to many), 3-7, 32-28(threatening a 2 for 1), 9-13, 18-9 5-14, 22-18, 13-17, 18-9 6-13, 21-14 10-17, 26-22, 17-26 31-22, red is now very weak, 7-10, 30-25, 2-6, 25-21, 1-5, 22-28, 6-9. From here it is a losing position for red.
I will provide the much better 32-27 variation ( for red)

Am learning a lot from your video, but the problem is that, in my country we are playing with flying king, that is where problems arises but from the start to midgame I learned from you , and for end game is big problem to me

a six piece jump would come close to destroying me ,it would make you want to quit checkers for a few days. great to see you posting again.

Killer shot, that's what I call these! Beside the depth, I think they are even harder to do, because you have to accurately see a position in which there will be five or more enemy pieces, and you need them at the exact right places since you are going to blast them all with a single final super jump. Any miscalculation, and the whole thing turns against you. This is the kind of stuff that blows people's minds, and jaws drop as they witness the true magic of checkers. I wish European players saw this. Checkers is probably the best style in the entire draughts family.

Ryan do you know where we can find updates on the Missouri tournament?

Thank you!

More fire, bring to us

Tnx

That was sweet

Nice stuff Ryan.
