Episode Summary:
The PinkHamster leads off with a puzzle for you, the viewer! This puzzle is a "homework assignment" for all kids on ChessKid. The first few kids who can solve it before the week is over will get a prize!
After going over a beautiful Stalemate Puzzle, the PinkHamster focuses again on Your Games Analyzed, looking at four games all played by the ChessKid user, Ruban. After getting his own king chased in the first game, Ruban changes roles from the hunted to the hunter, and hounds enemy kings all over the board throughout several exciting and instructive games.
Finally, the PinkHamster faces off against FlakyBird, in a fast-paced 5 minute game to end the show! But when FlakyBird holds his own throughout the opening and the middlegame, the Hamster is painfully reminded what happens when you push for too much in an equal endgame...
