| Jan 2, 2021 at 1:47 | comment | added | vsz | @ChristianH.Kuhn : the part of "and pressed the clock" is intentional. The sole reason you are not allowed to use two hands in a move is that by doing so, you could cheat on time by pressing the clock and completing the move simultaneously, and then your opponent's clock is already running while your other hand still covers part of the board! So this cheating would buy you more time. But in case of a checkmate the game is already over, so there is no time to be cheated away, and no opponent to be prevented from seeing the board because you didn't remove your hand quickly enough. | |

You think that 6.2.1.1 is ruled by not mentioning 4.1 in 5.1.1. What about 6.2.1.2? You play a promotion with both hands and do not press the clock, the opponent answers, and you play your next move, press the clock and complete the both-handed promotion. No illegal move? | |

Kuhn | There seem to be reasons to have doubt about the cleverness of the rules commission :-) But your argument that 4.1 is “only” a procedural rule and therefore is excluded intentionally from 5.1.1, 5.2.1, and 5.2.2 is worth to be considered. | |
