Nelson I love your channel. You have helped me cross the 800 mark. Currently trying to reach 1000. I watch all your videos fully. Your way of explaining is easy to understand. Best chess teacher.
Hey nelson I would really love to see a game involving the Vienna opening, maybe the Vienna gambit as well? Thanks for the instructive video as always.
The Vienna Gambit is probably my favorite opening for white, I love how as soon as the opponent accepts it’s a big mistake and after castling your rook is ready to go with no pawn in the way, super fun and aggressive opening :)
Exactly. Nelson has the ability to slow the time down. When I think like he does, I suddenly spend 7 minutes making a single move. And in my brain I am fast as a rocket and smart as Pia Cramling. The reality disagrees though.
But doing what he does helps me significantly, with careful consideration. Although my brain is not as good as his when it comes to calculating every good move, especially in the middle game, I spend much more time than my opponent apparently. As a result, I usually make fewer blunders than my opponent. Still, I do have to adjust my strategy a bit due to time pressure, often simplifying after gaining a material advantage and playing for an advantageous endgame.
Hey Nelson. Watching you play on my lunch break has not only boosted my rating by at least 200 points but its a relaxing escape from my stressful job. It is a important part of my daily routine. Keep making great content
That last game 🤯 Well played, even with a mouse slip. You and Eric Rosen had a very similar reactions, haha. He mouse slipped in one of his recent speed runs. Such a heart dropping moment!
Thank you for including the game with a mouse slip. It can be so frustrating to have that happen, but you handled it with patience and grace. Great games.
I posted last episode that the guy changed his name, and additionally they closed their account almost immediately after the video was released last week!
I'm new to the channel and I have been through all your rating climbs over the last two weeks! For me, these kinds of videos are a valuable way to enhance my chess playing. Thank you so much for doing that. Can I suggest the English opening? I don't think I've seen it anywhere on your channel.
18:36 if ne6 then then bxe6 if black captures with the f pawn then we have qh5 and if black captures with the d pawn then qxd8 kxd8 and then nxf7 forking the king and the rook
love your content, I wish I could take my time a bit more to keep a better overview. (then I get in time issues near the end) I guess keep on practicing ;-) it's fun to watch you play and give clear info on what to watch out for, not like in 5 steps, but stay calm and look at what is happening right now... just wait for the blunder 👏
Thanks for another instructive video , interesting that " Johnathan Langley " ( got tired of autocorrect 😤) was rated 100 points above average joe ! Quite unusual at that rating level !! Good job he's really a NM 😂
Great videos man, thanks a lot. Voting for Nimzo Indian defence and Karo-kann until you play m :D These are the first two openings I learned for black, one against E4 and one against D4 so you can basicly always play one of these as black (that was my thought)
The Nxe4 tactic is the reason I eventually gave up 4-knights games, usually I'll prefer placing bishop on c4, and I don't like the fact that black can force a knight trade
Hi Nelson, In the first game, you could have gone with the three knights petrov as well. I would have loved to see that. And I even more would have loved to see a (more) classical variety of the Petrov defense as I am now howevering around 800 elo and virtually nobody plays the classical, but they all turn it into the three knights game, Urusov gambit, Paulsen attack, Cozio, French attack or Cochrane gambit.
Nex5 is really fun and strong because after ...Ne6 we play Bxe6 and depending on the recapture were either checking Qh5+ or QxQ and then the knight fork
Maybe I should add Busch Gass gambit, Traxler Variation to the list to force you to play Nf6 when opponent declines Busch Gass with Italian? Yes it’s not a very good move but any opponent in this rating range accepting it would get slaughtered.
i know you don't like the French defense, but i would love a video on it. I usually play it (not very well) instinctually, as black, but not great playing against it as white. I'm only 889 blitz, so anything from you would help!
Hi Nelson next time an opponent starts with e4 (and follows with d4 and Nc3) can you try the Czech Pirc Defence please? That's the d6, Nf6, c6, Qa5 variation.
If anyone is curious the bishop coming out at first is not actually a mistake if you play it right. After black jumps in and takes your pawn with his knight you take his knight wth yours, he plays the pawn fork, you drop your bishop back to defend your knight and when pawn takes knight bishop takes pawn and you've both lost a pawn and a knight but you have a knight and bishop out while he has a pawn and knight out. Is it perfect? No you still want to avoid this just because it's even you don't want to be even with black but you lose no material
When a game ends there is an initial screen showing mistakes, blunders, etc. However the game review screen often differs, Many times the 1st screen shows mistakes that are not not on the second
Your rating is higher to 1100 plus isn’t it Nelson you seem like a 1900 or better type player ? But ok i understand these are instructional games where you are sharing your thought processes during a game thanks I find them interesting good judgement in move selection that you choose looking for good moves but also finding them and looking to see if there are any better thanks for the games
See the Chess Vibes video from a year ago (Aug 2023) called "we need to talk about this" about an email sent by the friend of a suspected cheater, why Nelson had suspicions of cheating, and how he doesn't want his viewers to harass suspected cheaters.
I imagine they saw that they got caught. Changed their username so they can use it ona different account later and then closed the cheater acc before they got taken down and ip banned
Too bad you didn’t get a do over like Agadmator did today in his game he moved his Queen one short of where he wanted to go to avoid the knight taking it but he moved it right into the fork his opponent let him do over it was an honest mistake
Man who’s really good at chess beats man who’s terrible at chess. Next video I’m going to watch is Novak Djokovic playing a rank amateur tennis player and explaining how his opponent can’t return 120mph serves.
and to add on to the other comment: average joe is a speedrun account given by the website, meaning anyone that loses to it gets their points right back and you can see the owner of the account (in this case nelson) listed on its page.
About the cheater: Maybe they saw your video? Maybe your fans made their life difficult for them? Strange anyway! Still hoping for Dutch Leningrad, btw ;-)
Please for the love of all that's holy finally realise that the mistake count at the end of the game is combined YOU AND YOUR OPPONENTS. Why they are never there when you check your individual list. Im sorry I've just been waiting like 10 episodes for this to be realised.

Great idea. Vienna Gambit and Rousseau Gambit (which is kind of a reversed Vienna).
Same
The Vienna Gambit is probably my favorite opening for white, I love how as soon as the opponent accepts it’s a big mistake and after castling your rook is ready to go with no pawn in the way, super fun and aggressive opening :)
My favourite opening for white too
@@AndyDavisTechnicalDiving
He calculates in a 10-minute game as if he's playing a 30-minute game, while my 10-minute games feel like bullet! 😂

exactly how I feel 😄
It all comes with practice, not immediately

46:19 - Nelson: "I have a more powerfull move. Do you see it guys what is is ?"
me: pawn f6, avoiding back rank check mate 😅
Lol
The cheater from last time found his username going viral, and fell on his sword. It happened almost immediately after you posted the video.

Yeah, i saw that one too. Nelson got lucky though, Eric's slip was fatal.
Thank you for including the game with a mouse slip. It can be so frustrating to have that happen, but you handled it with patience and grace. Great games.
Nervous the whole video for the mouse slip 😂
I was paranoid of him accidentally moving a random piece while he was commenting on the back rank mate threat
Nelson: "game review is down ? I want to see my blunder" 🤣
in your place I didn't wanted to see it 😅

They were probably getting harassed by viewers if they changed their name then closed their account.
i like this. he explains fully what could happen. and it's like irl chess. unlike just showing a Tactic/opening.
Nelson these videos are amazing they are as good as Danyas speedruns thank you

The reason why you didn't see a mistake in the first game is because in the recap it counts those made by both players, so the mistake was his
Wait, seriously? Is it really implemented this way?! Seems ridiculous

5:44 i would haave pushed the pawn to e4. and he would not castle anymore ;))
@17:57 I need to come back and study this opening. I've had this numerous times and always forget to sac my bish😅 😢
sacking your bishop isn’t the best move according to the fish, though it’s close; the best move is actually just to capture on e5
@@alexwangombe8534 but what's the fun in that 🤔 I like that he goes for the fun moves. We are here for the drama

51:54 - this could be another obtion for the magic wheel, when you play Martin bot 😂
41:28 nelson was so disappointed he didn’t see it 😂
even with the mouse slip, Nelson still won, & the score so far is _96_ , nice one! 👏👏
This "fried liver defense" is an "fried liver accelarator " you get something similar but with Queen and knight IT is more potent.
When a game ends there is an initial screen showing mistakes, blunders, etc. However the game review screen often differs, Many times the 1st screen shows mistakes that are not not on the second
Mouse slip gambit opening
My memory is bad, but I like watching your channel.
You explain well.
Thank you.
Lots of fun ! TY
..
Still new to the game so can not expect to be great player yet but what would be a great way to progress.
30:15 why not Bb6 ?.
Because you were playing a human that became the most tactically beautiful mouse slip I’ve ever seen.
15:45 I think you missed that the queen could’ve just taken the bishop
i've only done one mouse slip in my life and that was castling one spot instead of moving the king two
Ahhh man that mouse slip tho crazy stuff 😂
Hey! Awesome games.
Let's go Sicilian for white, then for Black
15:43 Nelson would have blundered his bishop. It's not a skewer as the white queen would take the bishop
I've mouse slipped with mate in 1 on the board. After that I switched to always clicking on the square I want to move to!
I hate the mouse slip, worse than not getting soup because we did it to ourselves.
Plzplay Caro kann
how about an instructional video on optimal play settings, (hint Move method->Drag pieces only😂)
Why in the first game he cant move the pawn on C3?
It could have been good to know how your oponnent should have punished the mouse slip.
15:40 not a skewer.... queen takes but the attack still looks deadly
is "offer them to play the evan's gambit" a possible request?
smart humer cooking some rice this morning
What does RICE mean?
31:22 Bc5 looks to me to be something of a checkmate in at least 5

can you do a goring gambit (2 pawn sacrifice line)
Hey Nelson! How about an obscure and passive defense that's totally not your style.
The Hedgehog!
Hippo defense
I think I found a Matt bei 13:58 with sack the Rock tx on F3 when Q tx the Rock on F3 and then Q to H3 Check and Matt
Nelson blundered so hard, the game review had to take a break
This was interesting - sad Nelson had to run to the toilet at the end.
You could turn on accept moves for instances like that mouse slip for these kind of videos
What is rice?
cheater count. the reason why it's called rice is because it's a reference to something that happened during his previous rating climb series.
See the Chess Vibes video from a year ago (Aug 2023) called "we need to talk about this" about an email sent by the friend of a suspected cheater, why Nelson had suspicions of cheating, and how he doesn't want his viewers to harass suspected cheaters.
Thank you

Rice means a cheater.
Why not bishop b6? 30:06
when in doubt, just castle. for me at least
17:51 pasgethi
Caro kann would be nice. ❤
Mouseslips suck. I have them often, concentrating more on the game than on my fingers.
Mouse slip? Again? That happened a year ago! :)

it's always the speedyrun

i mouse slipped and abandoned a losing game
hmmm, daym mouse slipped. just did that
do the kings gambit
I talk a lot of smack. They threaten to close my account all the time.
These opponents are not the toughest players Nelson yes you are doing pretty much best moves aren’t you higher rated than 1100 plus’s though ?
Man who’s really good at chess beats man who’s terrible at chess. Next video I’m going to watch is Novak Djokovic playing a rank amateur tennis player and explaining how his opponent can’t return 120mph serves.
But people can learn to become better chess players by watching Nelson. No one is going to get better at tennis watching Novak destroy a noob.
@@q45ij54q it’s the same principle. “Just blast a serve down at 130mph and you’ll win”. Yes very good, but we can’t all serve at 130mph.
Are you really only a 1200 level player?
Nelson is a national master with other 2300 elo in rapid
and to add on to the other comment: average joe is a speedrun account given by the website, meaning anyone that loses to it gets their points right back and you can see the owner of the account (in this case nelson) listed on its page.
Is a mouse slip worth a bowl of rice? 🤔
