It works, guys!! I applied all these tips into my games and lost every time!
Good job ! You did better than me, i lost only one game ☹
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@tonyanimations5377 You did better than me, i didn't lose any game.
Im too good i need a nerf that’s why I’m here. Greetings in 400 elo
Same, didnt wanna make magnus cry 😂
@@apersunthathasaridiculousl1890you’re a good person
@@apersunthathasaridiculousl1890Same, I never lost to Magnus
I was 900 elo and haven’t played in a year and just started today. Now I’m 200
@@Mike-we3rbWas there matches where you lost more than 20 elo points in one go? I've beaten equal rated opponents and sometimes see their elo drop by 50 points or even 100.
Honestly, number 10 is important for gaming in general. Tilt just ruins your skill, and more importantly, any improvement you can gain from playing.
i find it easier to not get tilted when playing for fun, always been so carefree but for the first time ever, when i was just on the door of becoming 1000 elo, and had set my mind to get it, any set back was really really crushing, usually no other game manages to make me feel like that, but chess has done it
oh also after achieving 1000, i reprogrammed my mindset to be playing for fun, i went back down to 930, but then the next few days jumped up to 1100!!
Agreed this can be applied to gaming, in general.
Oh. Now I know why I keep losing AND I FAILED in many games, that's why I can't upload any games cos I can't get a good game😢
I would even dare to say that tilt can ruin pretty much anything in your life, not only gaming. Plus, in other contexts, one may speak of being triggered rather than of being tilted - seems to me that being tilted and being triggered are not so far away from each other.
# 10 is really important! Overcoming tilt is really difficult for me. Losing a game feels very personal and makes me angry. I really need to work on that.
Personal tip (it may not work with everyone), the goal is to use your frustration to your advantage:
When you get angry after losing, close your eyes and think deeply about that anger, you need to feel it through your body, as a punishment. Then next time you play (whether it's the same day or not), close your eyes and think about all the happiness that you get when you win, think deeply. Now open your eyes and play for that happiness, don't think about the points, think about the happiness you get by winning.
Consistently practicing this technique will train your brain to maximize its efforts for winning.
But really, don't forget to do the five-five rule he talked about in the video before playing again.
That’s gonna lead to toxicity to yourself and others win or lose it’s not worth it
This resonates with me. You believe you're smarter and better than you are. From my experience, just go into the game and have fun, and remember this, losing is part of the fun.
I'm glad I have experienced ego death couple of times, so losing any game doesn't feel almost anything. Of course I want to win, but I'm not upset at all if I lose in chess or in any other game.
Also I think of losing a game (or doing anything wrong in real life) as a learning experience. In chess with computer analysis learning from mistakes is very easy practically.
@@tonyanimations5377honestly doesn't help at all, cause if I lose I know I played like shit. And if I win it's because my opponent played like shit. So even when I win I'm still mad because I won even though I didn't deserve.
Playing on tilt is one of the profoundest! Ideas I have heard. Not just for chess but for life. Work, relationships, what else? Put it out to the broader world Nelson. I can't think of anything more satisfying than being able to help millions of people feel happier and probably saving lives.
Something similar to 5-5-5 rule that i do is to go to game review and check 3 things i did right, 3 things i could have done differently. Then flip the board and pretend i am the opponent. It gives me time to cool off and also dismantle things
I've heard of "tilt" in poker, but never knew what it meant.
Turns out I've been living life itself on full tilt for the last 45 years.
I _really_ need to look into that.
Point 10 is why I NEVER do rematches.
Point 10 is why I rematch players who are obviously tilting 😈
I’m not the best at chess, but I have been playing 30 minute games and when I warm up I go to 10 minute games, I have went from 400 elo to 600 elo pretty quick.
Take your time, slow down, don’t worry about winning every game is another thing, use your games as learning points and gather that knowledge to over all win more.
It is this kind of advice that makes you more useful than some others who encourage one to attempt traps that rarely work. I was especially drawn to your advice about "tilt." I am guilty of that and have lost many a game while playing in that poor mental state. I will follow your advice.
Thanks for the tilt advice i went on a 8 game losing streak when i mouse slipped, should have just walked away. But i also have the opposite issue, where when i play reallly well and make maybe 1 mistake I dont want to ruin my mood.
1.not controlling the center
2.not developing pieces- knights and bishops -All 4
3.too many pawn moves - leaves behinds weak squares
4.bringing queen out too early
5.not castling b4 move 10
6.blocking your own pieces from developing
7.not doing proper blunder check - every single time opponent make moves , you should be asking what are they threatening and how I need to respond
8.playing too fast
9.neglecting your king’s safety
10.playing on tilt - upset angry annoyed - frustrated.
Solution -> 5-5-5 rule. Set timer for 5 minutes - 5 jumping jack - get your blood flow . Go to front door - fresh air - 5 deep breath.
always love your instructional and chess tips videos! Learned so much!
The 5-5-5 rule is the best one. The biggest problem is tunnel vision when a person doesn't accept the loss and start to be nervous more and more and more. For some game I don't even try to play again if I find this to me..
Other good thing about 5-5-5, that even Magnus does this.
That last one really hit home. For about a week I had felt like my brain was broken because I kept making really dumb mistakes, getting frustrated, playing more aggressively, which led to more dumb mistakes and frustration. Taking a break, even if it’s a whole day, to reset and chill out is really good advice (which is what I did to fix my slump).
FASCINATINGLY to me: this relates to how Bobby Knight explained his Coaching Style: His Style was NOT to tell his players What To DO but rather What NOT to do....
Love the content. Thanks for the tips. Still early in my chess journey but I’m finding basic techniques like these really help.
Losing or sensing am about to lose a game builds a frustration in me that I need to learn how to handle, sometimes I play my favorite music to improve mood. Besides tilt, poor internet and sudden network cuts in the African country am in has cost me valuable points.
I also knew that playing on tilt is bad but I didn't knew what to do next thank you nelsi❤
Hi Nelson. I have checked all of your 3 videos related to Evan's gambit. Could you make a video on the lines for Fontaine Counter Gambit where black plays b5?
Moves:
1. e4 e5 2. Nf3 Nc6 3. Bc4 Bc5 4. b4 b5
genshin impact reference
jokes aside the best move is to play Bxf7 when king takes you take their bishop
Thanks! I needed that advice, especially the anti-blunder and tilt parts!!
Playing tilted is my biggest problem! I've lost over 100 rating multiple times in a single day lol. I'll try out your method next time I start slipping into the snowball effects of tilt
When i was playing on tilt, i lost like 200 rating points in just a week and gave up on chess for a few months. I came back when i noticed that i was refunded like 40 points because some of the people i played against were cheating and i kept rematching the cheater for a few times
I like the King's Fianchetto opening, myself. It combines several principles--it quickly develops my bishop to an active diagonal, it hits two of the center squares, and it can hamper an opponent's development. It paves the way for early castling, and I believe the King is more secure with that structure than without.
Your last advice was a great surprise for me. The best one I've heard since I don't know how far in time watching chess videos. Also, since an undetermined time ago I got conscienceness of how hard this mood "degradation" may have been affecting me on my chess games, specially when I've been doing a bunch in a row without any rest. I feel that your advice is an important key for anyone who's about to start a new game, no matter your level or knowledge.
Thanks a lot for sharing it 🙌
1000 videos! Congratulations 🎉
Great video. Thanks for the tips!
Great video! Great tips. Thanks a lot. 👍👍
Thanks for the advice!!
love it! great advices
#4 is important - I have frequently defeated opponents who get the queen out too early. I chase it around the board with minor pieces and pawns and sometimes the opponent blunders it away. Recently one queen took a rook in the left corner but I swiveled a knight into position to trap the queen.
Solid advice on the tilt
Thanks 🙏 Nelson! Awesome 👏 tips !
Great video. I learned that I hate the expression tilt/tilted!
Another BRILLIANT video!
I love all your 'number' videos.
5-5-5 is great!
Thanks you Nelson. You are the best teacher !
Consistently the best chess tutor out there. Nelson is an expert and undoubtedly has the skills and experience but most importantly, he just feels like your pal who's sitting down beside you, imparting knowledge in a way that is always friendly and encouraging.
No.8 "Playing too fast" I have a different solution from Nelson's. If time isn't enough for you, change a mode. I merely play 15+10, and time is not a problem. I hardly ever play blitz or 10min rapid without time increment because I know I would lose on time.
Amazing! I loved this, thank you
Love the 555 technique. I have won a bunch of times playing against someone on tilt but I have also struggled when I go on tilt. It works for all sports.
5:51 when we block like that, cant the bishop fiancheto? But oh that also wastes a move to bring out the bishop by moving a pawn
The idea on "tilt" and what to do about it is just a great idea - makes me think how often I'm doing internet in general "on tilt", not just chess.
I used to play poker for several years. Tilt is such a huuuuuge factor in poker people have no idea. Mainly because you can lose even when you have a 99% chance of winning and did nothing wrong. I actually quit poker due to tilting and losing my bankroll. Thanks to this experience I only tilted and lost a lot elo in chess once.
Great video as always Nelson
The last one was so relatable. Once i had lost a game on time because the mouse was not working and i remember i was pounding the mouse on the table for one minute continuously
You are fantastic.
I think tilting and playing too fast is what ruin my chess performance.
I was almost 800 one week ago and now dropped below 650 due to compulsive playing after losses.
I will definitely follow your suggestions.
Many thanks !!!
0:15 Not Controlling the center
0:53 Not developing your pieces
1:48 Too many pawn moves
3:30 Don't bring your queen out too early
4:33 Not castling before move 10
5:31 Blocking your own pieces from developing
7:15 Not doing a proper blunder check
10:19 Playing too fast
11:42 Neglecting your king's safety
14:42 Playing on tilt
I love that you also care about mentality when it comes to chess because I always lose games and get really insecure at chess so thank you ❤️
10:00 Best move for black is Knight takes h2!! Because when the knight takes it forks both rooks and if you take one or get it to safety, the other dies and black wins by this knight sacrifice.
2 pieces better than rook just saying you lose knight and bishop and almost all top players say that, and if you put that position on computer and do the moves you said it makes it go from black having very tiny advantage to white winning
Indeed, very helpful tips!
1500 but I watched it anyways 🙃
Would love to see a video detailing what things each level need to focus on to progress. Been stuck at 1500 for a while.
That tip about tilting is god tier. I have gone from dominating to some crazy losing streaks on pvp games in the past because of tilt.
You are an amazing teacher Nelson.
The only thing I wanted to learn is to get rid of tilt.
Thanks Nelson,I already take care of winning to not lose.
# 1 and 3 is why I quit playing chess a long time ago. The whole point is to control the center, so it takes away from the game, knowing I can't move or even start out moving certain pawns. In most games, all your pawns will still be in the same starting place for most of the game. Sure you can start out moving any pawn you want, but you will lose most of the time if it's not the center pawns.
I’ll add that anytime I feel tilted, I try to take a break and work on puzzles. Sometimes just helps me refocus and sharpen back up but the key is knowing when to take that break lol
Same about the 10th point: Minding the tilt
I've never heard of the 555 technique going to use it as soon as I have problems.
Thank a lot Nelson
Can they invent a 555 timer chip to help with this?
Magnus must have watched this ahead of his game against Kramnik, and used it as a guide.
Thanks for this list. I have done all of them particularly #10. Good common sense advice.
2 Qh5 is solid. The reason it can work is because opponents often dont see beyond scholars mate. The position is -.5 same as Kings Gambit, Evans Gambit, and a few other well known "bad" positions. A huge part of the game is taking your opponent away from what they might know.
Losing a game definitely sucks. All those points are valid but the last one, finished like a chess player. Strong and profound. I'm currently suffering from tilt and boy, it messes you up more than you can imagine. From 907 ELO to 831 ELO today alone. Glad I actually found a solution. Thanks mate.
Brilliant, Nelson!
Worth watching just for tip 10. Never heard of the phrase 'playing on tilt', but I do it all the time, and find myself with a 5 game losing streak in a matter of minutes!
“Control the center”
Modern players:
Wow I didn't expect to learn a life lesson that is universally useful (to not just chess), near the end.
Nelson just casually throwing out real therapy there in #10.
These are the videos I needed to learn how to play chess. I hate when videos tell beginners to learn certain openings and play certain lines. I'm way behind that. I just need simple fundamentals and theory that can allow me to think through problems.
Thank you for the 5 5 tip Nelson!
Great video, even though I’m not a beginner, I realized a few of my weaknesses including nr. 10 🤷♂️😂
Funny how Magnus immediately the exception. He broke the first 3 in his recent match and still win.
It's exception because we aren't magnus :(
This video is great because I see myself making these mistakes so thanks!
8:09 knight captures e5 defending bishop and preparing fork on f2, otherwise they take biskop and now you have double stacked pawns.
I have made a puzzle for minor pieces coordination and converting the win.
8/4k2p/4p3/3pKp2/2p3p1/4B3/2N3B1/8 w - - 0 1
wanted to thank you for the 5-5-5 tip. Very useful.
Thanks Nelson for the videos
I went from 600 to 400 elo because of tilt , im so glad you helped me find that issue and i will do my best to work on it. Thank you so much ❤
Ahhh tilt. Losing at this game in particular angers me, luckily i can manage anger very well.
If i lose first game this is what typically stresses me, off to a bad start kinda thing.
If i have a few wins, then i lose, i quit playing for an hour or so, come back later.
This has especially helped since i learned that anger feeling of losing quickly dissapates.
Tip 10 was useful
My blitz literally fell from 960 all the way down to 918, but I still kept playing and it keeps going down to 881
I stopped for like a week, played one game yesterday and another game just now (with a brilliant move) and got it back up to 897
You’re my favorite chess channel!!
As a 1700 I can say that playing too fast and on tilt are mostly my problem...you really nailed it with these 2
#7 is one where I often fail to identify all threats.
Number is 10 is important in a lot of things. Most of the time when I play chess, it's not to win or to lose a game, but it's to take my mind off of another problem that I am having a difficulty solving. Just the brief respite will many times bring a solution to mind that I was just circling around.
I do many mistakes highlighted here. I could connect with this very well. Thanks for enlightenment
Thank you very much for this video. As a new player…this video is a boon of information that I needed to hear.
Nr. 9 also shows that you should never surrender too early. Give your oppoent a change tomake mistakes.
Nr 10 never was a real problem for me. In the end it is only a game of chess you lose. No need to feel frustration.
What about that bishop pin on the knight in kingside. How do you avoid the pin?
Definitely suffer from tilt. I lost about 200pts the other day and almost quit the game because I kept immediately doing another game to try and bounce back and get back in a groove or back in a winning streak.
Yes, number 10 is the big one for me. I start to play compulsory sometimes, with terrible results. The same happens to me in classical chess. I can win six games in a row and then, all of a sudden, I lose five games in s row. So I go up to 1900 ELO and then back to 1840 again.
Thanks Nelson for the tips, Tip 10 is I think the most important but for me after I win a game I lose twice in a row. Cheers 😊
Oh and I am struggling to get to 1200
In that position where was f4 group is blocking the knight find the pawn is attacking the queen
rule 5 only applies if the queens are on the board. ive won plenty of games without castling, even ones where queens were not traded.
Alexa - set a timer for 5 minutes
Alexa - do 5 jumping jacks for me
You just haven't seen a Gotham video 17 pawn moves in a raw. It was a real opening on the first 3 pawn pushes. And was pretty effective.
Making too many pawn moves early in the game is also the major reason the supposed bust of 1.e4 in Marseillais Chess, 1…d5 dxe4, isn’t actually so good.
Thank you!
When you're under pressure, that's the time to slow down, and keep calm.

I just came across this video after getting an 8 game losing streak yesterday, thinking what I did wrong, and now notice the importance on #10.
