  1. 3:04 Why should the King take the pawn? Just sidestep the King, let the black pawn head down, you get with your own pawn a queen earlier and can deliver the checkmate.

  2. @3:06: Why would you take the pawn? Just move your king to e7 or g8 and it's mate in 3.

  3. 3:05 why not : not take the pawn and let our pawn become queen ?

  5. That's right, woodchuck-chuckers, it's GROUNDHOG DAY!
