Hou Yifan blunders in a king endgame vs Anish Giri

Hou Yifan was about to make a draw against Anish Giri in Round 1 of the 2018 Tata Steel Masters, but suddenly....

Let’s stay in touch!

Man, if even GMs can't do this, how the hell should we normies ever manage to play a situation like this right?!

Excellent analysis, thank you for the video. Studying endgames is so important, and even top GM’s frequently struggle with them.

Can't see how not finding the right move in this position qualifies for the definition "huge blunder" Are all loosing moved huge blunders?

I was wondering how she lost that game. It was drawish the entire way.

Calling this a huge blunder when you have 1 or 2 minutes on a clock is just unfair against Yifan. Of course, if engine is showing us moves it's a nice example and endgame study but how many of even GMs, including the one commenting, could spot the line thus know Kc6 is lost and Kd6 is draw?

What's with the bubbles or is it machine gun fire, ratatatatatatatatatata! 🤣

[webfatigue]

Anish needs a blunder to win anything these days.

i can win with black easily whoever the opponent except engine lol

[hanspeters]

why do you keep calling those endgames king or king and pawn endgame, is it needed to mention that there is a king on the board? just call it pawn ending like everyone else does.
