@@Aadi-q3s Quite the opposite. If you check with the Queen, the knight would move to d7 to block the check, so it would allow black to save the knight.
At 3:15 you can pin the night to blacks queen or back it up. I like to pin the knight to the queen then if they chase you with pawns you end up on G3 anyway and they will trade the bishop and open up your rook but you enduce pawn weaknesses where black will castle. This works often at the 1000 up to 1200 range in 5 minute games. someone at 2200 isn't going to weaken their pawns chasing a biship though unless they are going to win it.
I really love these thought process videos you are making Nelson. I would love to see the same thing but you vs a GM. When you’re showing your thought process you seem like a genius, it would be interesting to see it picked apart too! Keep up the great content.
VERY interesting! I. too. play the London and am about the very low 4 digit rating, but usually play the N before the light squared B-seems to create a different structure, I also recall c4 being a move that you considered as being the best. Thanks to both of you
Honestly props to your opponent for not resigning even when he knew it was lost. Many people around 1000 will blunder even in winning positions and you can turn the game around. Obviously less of a chance Nelson will blunder than a 1000, but still a good habit
@@vloggerkanxo14 I'm assuming you mean Nb4 (as the king cannot possibly go to b4) which loses the rook on c3. The pawn on b2 cannot recapture, because it's pinned to the king.
I think he should have taken that bishop at the beginning. Immediately he saw that his London was uncomfortable for him. My advice to him is to play alot of London games against the computer. And analyse them. Maybe a good excersize for him would be to remove a piece from the computer and play the London against it. And try to win. Then, every time he loses, he should analyse the game, then go back remove another piece from the computer and repeat the whole process.
Definitely was winning after the bishop-rook exchange, not sure how many moves back it would have to go to avoid it, as a pawn was hanging on the other side.
Hey there Nelson. I can't seem to find the video where you link the survey for what people would like to see taught next on the channel, so I'll just leave it here: I never quite seem to know what to do with my bishops in the opening. Knights you just chuck forward and they always seem Ok. As for bishops, just moving them one space always feels weird as nothing really changes other than you release the back rank. Moving them 4 spaces seems super easy to kick out by just advancing pawns, and moving them 2/3 spaces just jams them with pawns and knights in the center of the board. Fianchettoing them feels even worse as they end up with nowhere to go, it's just pawns blocking as far as the eye can see. It's like you're doing a presentation and you never know what to do with your hands, everything is weird or clunky or awkward lol I always end up moving them semi randomly and pretty much every time without fail it's an inaccuracy or worse when looking at the review. So yeah
Having played the London as white, that was just painful to watch. White should consider trading the bishop and opening up the h file as an opportunity. Next time try sliding the Queen to c2. If Black castles King side, you have immediate pressure on h7. And, if Black castles Queen side, you are already lined up with Black's king on the c file. This also defends against the popular attack against the pawn on b2. Best of all, this move does not interfere with any of your normal London development.
The first obviously stupid move was Bg3, losing a tempo and doubling the pawns. Why not just play Bxd6? The 1000 player didn't even consider it. Then he worries about where black's queen will move after f4 while making no effort to figure it out. Then it takes him just a few minutes to completely forget that his rook is under attack. And this guy isn't helping himself or anyone else by repeating over and over how terrified he is. Jeez, just play chess.
Every opponent in this series: (repeatedly) "I'm really nervous that he's a NM... " Approach: 1. Think through 60 secs of many different options of moves, including some good ones 2. Play some other random (avg quality) move after literally 3 seconds of thought
Late reply. But Im A Peak 2040 elo. Fluctuating between 1800-1950. And fyi. The difference between 1300 and 1800 is MUCH SMALLER than the difference between 2000-2200. So 1900 is Still not strong for an NM like Nelson. But they do have small winning chances no lies.
@@MelloRoadToMaster i'm peak 1930 elo and i get what you're saying, but i would love to see "richer" ideas from opponents. Smaller rated players try to keep everything solid and it's boring to watch
@@MrBabadis I get it. Look at the GM games and their positions are very unorthodox. Even lots of titled players have no unorthodox games like that. We aint looking for rich plans for now. Our goal is to play as solid as possible to the point where we can break the rules when we know when to and make the "rich plan" Though I dont know your exact definition of rich plan.
@@MelloRoadToMaster no need for a "rich plan" just in general, rich ideas. haven't seen anyone considering a sack strat. that one guy just wanted to fight for a pawn and the game for him was basically revolving around that pawn, you know
@@JimBalterthank you for being so invested in the video that you comment on every rude comment that im a fish. It really emphasizes how nice of a guy you are. Btw this fish is over a 1000 now 🤷🏽♂️ 🎉😂. Thanks for watching!
I personally dont like the videos like this where you have someone else present their POV and thoughts. For me its just double thoughts and one is lot less wisdom than you, so I fast forward through his explanations and its not ideal. Love your other videos though.
I hate this game....nothing makes me angrier than this game..I constantly get opponents that just take as many pieces as they can with their queen with no tactics or strategy...just steal anything and everything... I literally cannot learn or get better playing people with childish gameplay
It was a pleasure getting to meet you and I had a blast playing chess against you! Thank you Nelson! 😊
Dude you were so funny really enjoyed you featured on the channel
@@Tietous❤thank you!🙏
Bro u missed an amazing move at 18:14 you could check the king and take the knight . Well it's fine you played good, enjoyed it 😅😄
GG ! You verbalized everything I'm feeling when in the same position 😅 Keep playing ✅
@@Aadi-q3s Quite the opposite. If you check with the Queen, the knight would move to d7 to block the check, so it would allow black to save the knight.
difference between
"ok, so he played"
and
"oh god, he played"
I appreciate that Nelson and opponent verbalize their thought processes. This format has been the most helpful in my chess game.
28:15 This moment 😂
Yeah he was soo onto himself.. that he forgot about the fork lol.

"he played that kind of fast; I wonder what mistake I made" -- you just took his piece; of course he's going to take right back.

That was a joy to watch. I wish there was a view after to show what was the main errors, and full credit to the 1000 rated player.
At 42:12 Rg1+ Ka2 Rc1 wins the knight by force. Both of white's defensive resources that stopped the idea in the past no longer work
in that case there is very easy kb4 move as rook is saved by b2 pawn
@@vloggerkanxo14 I'm assuming you mean Nb4 (as the king cannot possibly go to b4) which loses the rook on c3. The pawn on b2 cannot recapture, because it's pinned to the king.
These videos are very instructive.
They are very helpful.
Thank you. Please keep making these videos
Gotta respect his stream titled journey to 1.2k rather than sth clickbaity like road to GM
This was awesome! Great content.
loving this series
@28:15 I mean it's either A-pawn for Kings safety or your rook to get away from the bishop threat!
I was thinking Rh5 Qxa2 Qb5+ and fight on down a pawn but very active. For instance if black isn't careful then Qe5 next can fork some pawns
Nice. Still loving this series.

Yes, obviously, but he didn't even consider it. Bg3 was a ridiculous move.

I love this format!!
oh man... it hurt my heart when he blundered that rook
Simply play c5 the reverse queen‘s gambit
27:14 What about Rh5 ?
Nelson would still take the pawn on a2.
it's still a better continuation though, as white gets a lot of activity after a queen check
@@lethalty6055 Rh5 Qxa2 Qb5+ gives white tons of counterplay and maybe even wins.
The opponent was a pretty cool guy
It would be great if you play against heigher rated opponent than you so that we can get their thinking process also. Btw nice content
It's kinda crazy that he's never castled queenside in the London.
1000 i learnt are like robots in positional play
Great videos lately nelson, My rating is up 2x :D
Nothing like bishop hitting your rock ...feel ya great game
It took him a minute to forget that his rook was under attack. Doomed to forever be a fish.
I like playing G4 in this structure to threaten the knight
🤣😂🤣😂 good job! Great game considering your rating.

BG3 is a text book line. It allows you to open a file for your rook.
