This is very good teaching with the main ideas, how strong and tricky the Knight is in making forks and how there is always a trade-off, because the King or Pawn move seemingly improving your position will turn out to be fatal after ten moves. I am very lazy in calculations, and this is a great practice for that. Thank you!
Welcome to the world of modern endgame studies! This is a very nice study and most likely rather recent. I don't have it in my database but will update with the source as soon as I can get it. This kind of small apparently insgnficant differences between two lines where one piece (the black king in this case) ends up placed in a different position which changes everything but only at the very end are called "logical tries" and are quite "en vogue" in modern study composition. Edit, source : Sergey Didukh, 9th-10th prize, WCCT 2016 Didukh is one of the most brilliant study composer of the last two decades. WCCT is the world chess composition tournament. Didukh (and his teacher Oleg Pervakov) are famous especially for their work in logical tries, which this study illustrates perfectly. Logical tries were actually the required theme for studies in the WCCT10 (2016) : "A logical study with the foresight theme. In a win or a draw study, there is at least one logical try. In this try a critical position B occurs that is very similar to a critical position A in the solution, except for a small difference. Studies in which the critical positions are based on a reciprocal zugzwang (i.e. the difference is that position A has BTM and position B has WTM) are non-thematic. Further, studies that only feature the 7th WCCT theme as the foresight theme (passive removal of a white piece as a Vorplan and returning to the position and executing the main plan) are also non-thematic."
The real genius is not only the one who solves the study, but the composer himself. According to my database, the author is Ukrainian chess player Serhiy Didukh (2016). If we already think we've solved the problem, let's find a hidden defense! Fantastic! National champion Nelson Lopez really has the best videos to be seen on TH-cam in my opinion!
Thing is in the modern day composers have access to engines. They can ask the computer what the best line is, and see what happens in every other line. OTOH it's generally bad form to use an engine to solve a chess puzzle and claim you solved it.
@@Person01234 Your comment, however, is not about the author. He has to invent the study in the first place. The actual solution will usually be solved by the computer, but 1/ it will 'tell' you how, not why; 2/ there are quite a few studies in which the engine fails. These are mostly strength positions. To give a FEN of a primitive example 8/2r1k1r1/3p1b2/2pPp3/1pPp1p/pP3PpP/P2K2P1/8 w - - 0 1 Even a smart 7 year old can understand that the position is a tie while the computer is still groping in the dark. Conclusion: there really is no 'artificial intelligence'. And it's not just a philosophical definition of intelligence: self-awareness. We are not in a science fiction Terminator :-)
Black can take pawn on f5 with check with knight, white moves Kf4 trying to stop the knight, black moves Nh6 blockading your h pawn and king from moving any closer. Then it turns into a race between the white king to capture blacks a pawn before it promotes where the white king wins the race, but gives the black king enough time to capture whites f pawn making his f pawn a past pawn and manages to protect and promote the f pawn. Black wins White loses in this variation
I did not like chess problems until I got into your channel. Amazing, Nelson! I take it you understand Spanish - from your family name - Bravo, Nelson, la berraquera!
No hay necesidad de sacrificar el alfil, si lo movemos a a7, el caballo negro necesariamente tendrá que ir a d7. Explicación: si el negro corona, nosotros movemos el rey a g6.

Y si mantiene la dama en la columna movemos la torre a e2 y en la siguiente jugadas podemos dar mate en h2 con la torre. La única manera en que el negro puede evitar eso es moviendo el caballo a e2.
Knight c1 u cant stop black sp forst bishop moves right then u get knight c1 if the rook comes down u promote to queen as its blockig but if the bishop takes then the pawn can capture promotong and check on the queen soooo
2:51 play Qh1 forking the king and queen then the has has to either go to f2 or d2 and when you take the queen trade you can push either the f3 or d3 pawn and it allows 1 of them to make a queen and it would be an easy make 2 pawns queen?
awesome video! that was a great breakdown. just one small request. could you please show the full sequence (from the start) to the checkmate after your analysis? it would be nice to see the game without all the possibilities. your video breakdown is perfect. it would just be super helpful to see how it all unfolds move by move. could be a nice way to end your videos ya
If I set this up on Lichess board editor and play as White then, after White's Rook move at 4:25 in the video, Stockfish (default level 8) curiously under-promotes the pawn to a Rook. Why should this be?
I quickly saw that Bd2 followed by Re1+ was the plan, however, I didn't see everything that followed. I would have had to set it up on a board and play through to see all of that, and I probably would have missed some of it even then.
Yes but when the knight is on f7 "stopping" from qeening, can't I just bring king over to him and scare him off that square, get my qeen and win the game?
I agree with isakolsson & user-ms7, chasing the knight to the corner, you would still win on tempo. If he moves off to D8 check, you can take another pawn Kxf6, isn't it over?
So i Paused the Video on 0:34 to share my idea. I looked at the Puzzle in the Beginning for about 5 minutes and the Only Winning Move i see is Bf2. Let me Explain: The Pawn on b2 is one square away from Queening so we need a Strat to let it not happen. The Bishop blocks the Way for our Rook. If we move the Bishop to f2 the Rook has the entire e-File to came back and stop the Pawn from Queening. With Bf2 the e1-Square is protected by the Bishop and if the Pawn Queens we have simply Re1 with a Royal Fork with check and we trade our Rook for the Queen. If the Pawn doesnt promote and the King moves to g2 to capture the Bishop we play Re1 anyway to cover the b1 square. If the King takes on f2 we play Rb1 and win the Pawn and have a winnig Rook Endgame. I hope it was right. Edit: I was completly wrong, didnt see the move Nc1. But bruh, seeing 18 Moves into the future with all these Tactics? its nearly Impossible to see^^ I think even Magnus Carlsen didnt see this xD
One final trick in the position with Nf4, white pawn on f5 and pawn on d6: 1. ... d5+. We cannot go Kc5 or Kb4 due to Nxd3 check. So 2.Kb5, 2.Kb3 and 2.Kc3 ( 2. ... d4+ 3. Kb3 ) are avoiding last trick.
15:05 What if, instead of ...Nxf4, Black plays ...Ng5? That prevents h7, and it would take White 6 moves to support that Pawn. A little aside: Can anyone actually analyze all these Knight moves in their head? 😳😱
Okay I saw the initial sacrifice to stop the queen but how much adoral did it take to follow that convolution of knight, pawn, king cat and mouse… holy moly
what about king to g3? he gets the queen then bishop to f2. he cant check or move his queen bc of the checkmate threat and whatever he does rook e1 is coming and its bishop vs knight
@@GreenBowYT 'Its still mate after you take the knight though' What are you taking the knight with? 'or you get a knight vs bishop and that's better than ponds vs knight' Again, you get a queen vs a bishop. After Re1, there is no way for you to take the queen.
@@thetaomegatheta white king to g3, assuming black will promote, you go bishop to f2 then you said knight to d2? (if he moves his queen he lost by mate) after knight to d2 we go rook e1 to check his king and fork the queen. if knight to f1 you take with the rook (protected by the bishop) and its still check forking the queen and after you take its bishop vs knight
@@GreenBowYT 'if knight to f1 you take with the rook (protected by the bishop)' How does a dark-squared bishop on f2 protect the light square f1? What do you do after black queen just takes your rook?
After watching all of Nelson’s videos I’m starting to thing that you should give away your pieces and seemingly not get anything until you checkmate your opponent 267582649291846472736584827 moves later. 😂
Why not Ba7? If the object of the 1st move is to allow the rook to get to e1, then that move accomplishes the same thing, takes a pawn and saves the bishop.
It does allow the rook to go to e1. But, the rook would not be protected like it would be if the bishop was on d2. So if we took the pawn on a7, black could just promote. And if we try to check on e1 the black queen can just take our rook.
Whenever you do these sort of puzzles, with end In a "this will lead into white winning", it would be interesting to sometimes see how you would achieve that victory. Maybe try to play against Stockfish from such a position, to show how would achieve that victory.
I am no genius but I have the feeling that I can just use my king to drive away the knight's defense on the queening square, I am talking about that final move on this study.
Chess Vibes Love your video, I have one question for you, After playing Bishop to D2, What happens if the Knight on B3 doesn’t take the Bishop on D2. Instead moves King to G2
THe cool thing is I got all of the moves that he asked for, but some moves he just played and I thought in my head "I would never find that in my life"
Very fun puzzle, it was 500 elo level at the beggining but the end with manupulating the opponent to block their pieces with their own was pretty fun to watch and try to solve
I was looking at that too I think, if you are talking about when the king was at c5 during the "get out of Dodge" proposed wrong move. The trouble is it would take 4 moves for the white king to capture the knight, plus one move to queen it. By that time black would also have 5 moves to queens the a file pawn. White would have the advantage of being able to attack with a queen first but a draw is likely. Best move is to take away any possibility of the knight stopping the h file pawn from queening. Tough puzzle.
guess im a genius, some of the black moves werent top engine (played against stockfish 15.1 in chessbase to solve this) so I had to do them 1 at a time along the video
This right here illustrates why humans will never equal the top tier chess bots. I'm pretty damn sure even Magnus could never have seen the G2 idea so far ahead. But Stockfish could.
At 14:34 you forgot to mention that the reason this is losing is actually because even if the king goes to e6 to threaten to take the knight, it will just go to g5 with a fork on king and pawn.
@@IvoB1987 You mean if King goes to c6, right? Then black will push the A pawn for promotion then nh8 once white king goes to e7 to further delay white. If white tries to chase the A pawn before taking the knight then black will have time to mobilize its king.
My first guess was Kg3, and if b1=Q Bf2 seems to win the Q without losing the B, with a 1-0 ending. I see a Greek gentlemen suggested this a month ago. Any refutation?
After 2. Bf2, Black has 2… Nd2!, and if 3.Re1+ forking king and queen, then 3… Nf1+! (with check so we can't take the queen), and after the king moves, Black can save the queen and win the gane
Thank You for those WONDERFUL 16 minutes in my Life. You guide us thru a beautiful ride in a brilliant labyrinth. I am not a great Player, and I don’t intend to be. I simply LOVE Chess, and your Videos are a great GIFT for me! Regards from Brazil, from a big Fan!

Loved this one. I missed most of the moves, but nailed f6 at the end with a huge grin on my face.

Great video Nelson, love your style. cheers man
I couldn't see the king behind the time on the thumbnail. Had a little crisis trying to figure out any solution.
at 2:55 why not ck black instead of taking queen?
This is a phenomenal puzzle. I love ones that I have no hope of ever solving like this 😂
I thought from the thumbnail that the puzzle was literally just figuring out which way the pawns are going
I swear if im ever in a possition like this and somehow make it to the end and get a queen, im somehow gonna lose the queen and still lose the match.

At 9:59 why dont you just take the knight with d2 check when he chooses to get the queen?
King just goes to the bottom row, and if the rook follows, it gets taken by the queen. So, in your variation, black has a queen.
can u make a video about the Dunst Opening?
Chess Vibes
Love your video, I have one question for you,
After playing Bishop to D2,
What happens if the Knight on B3 doesn’t take the Bishop on D2. Instead moves King to G2
We play Re1 anyway and black has to play Nxd2 to stop Rb1, so it transposes into the solution.
a5 to protect knight next move (if rook think about... you know). pawn can comfortable transform... you know
Is it also winning if black goes for the other pawns and keep his Knight and pawns. Is it easily to stop the pawns with only Q+K?
I don't get why we don't just move the bishop away to some other random spot than Bd2. Why not, say, Bxa7.
duck chess at the back😂
THe cool thing is I got all of the moves that he asked for, but some moves he just played and I thought in my head "I would never find that in my life"

Thank You for those WONDERFUL 16 minutes in my Life. You guide us thru a beautiful ride in a brilliant labyrinth. I am not a great Player, and I don’t intend to be. I simply LOVE Chess, and your Videos are a great GIFT for me! Regards from Brazil, from a big Fan!
This make's me think knight and a bishop are equal
Anyone noticing the duck chess game in the background
That was awesome!
This video fully proved n confirmed I’m NO genius 😂😂😂😂😂
AMAZING!!
"... now X is in the way!"
How can anyone come up with such a brilliancy? In fact, Sergiy Didukh only got the shared 9/10th price for that at the 10th World Chess Composition Tournament! Shame on you, price judges!
