Hi, my name is Rebecca Taxman. I'm with Chess NYC, and I'm going to talk to you today about pawn structures. While there are multiple pawn structures that are very important to know, there are five basics that are "need-to-know".
So, let's start off with the pawn chain. To begin, we have what's called a pawn chain: we have a diagonal set of pawns; each pawn in this pawn chain is protecting one another. This is extremely important in terms of creating an attack. You always want to have your pawn chain directed towards the king. If the king is castled over on this side of the board, this is where you want your pawn structure going, instead of having your pawn chain running off the side of the board. Not so happy. Additionally, the top pawn is the strongest pawn in the pawn chain, the bottom is the weakest. If you're playing on black, you want to attack the bottom of the pawn chain. The idea behind the pawn chain is that it controls a lot of space and it's going toward the king, creating an attack.
Another important pawn structure that is a need-to-know is called "double pawns". Double pawns have both good and bad elements to them. One element that is very good about double pawns is they control a lot of space. Double pawns can control up to five squares - one, two, three, four, five. In chess, we want to control space. Double pawns can control a lot of space. However, there is a weakness to double pawns. This pawn right back here is not protected by any other pawns, therefore this pawn is considered weak. Additionally, this pawn is also considered "stuck in traffic," meaning it can't move unless the pawn in front of it moves first.
Another important pawn structure that we need to know is called the "isolated pawn", or "lonely pawn". This is not a favorable pawn structure. This pawn is sitting all by itself. When we have a pawn that's like this sometimes we have to have a queen or another, bigger piece defending and babysitting this pawn. I don't want my queen babysitting an isolated pawn. I want my pieces going ahead and making checkmate, and not defending an isolated pawn. This pawn is considered a weakness, and it is easy for black to attack.
An even more unfavorable pawn position is "double isolated pawns". Additionally, these two pawns are extremely weak. Neither one of them can protect one another. This pawn is also considered stuck in traffic. It cannot move forward unless the pawn in front of it moves forward, and these are relatively hard to defend. A bishop cannot defend both of these pawns at the same time. A knight can also not defend both of these pawns at the same time. It's also hard, unless a rook is in between them, to defend them at the same time. We have to use a queen or a king to defend the two pawns at the same time.
However, the last pawn structure I want to talk about is called a "passed pawn". Passed pawn is one of the most important pawn structures that we need to know, because this pawn is on its way to becoming a queen. A passed pawn is a pawn that has passed all of your enemy's pawns and is on its way to becoming a queen - by getting to the end of the board - or any other piece that you choose. When you have passed pawn, it is very important to sit and babysit this pawn. So therefore you can get it to the end of the board and it can become a queen or any other piece that you choose.
And that is all I have to tell you about important pawn structures.

Learned a couple of things I didn't know about pawns. Especially the pawn chain directed towards the enemy king side.
If the king castles long (queenside) than you'd reverse the pawn chain. The beautiful thing about chess is that it is ALL situational.. Usually after around the 10th move; the chess piece positions have never been played before so all rules become more like guidelines.
Nice video: You got in quickly, without the usual, lengthy graphics and title “overhead.” You gave us the info, and then you got out. Thank you! Very fine video!
This is a great tutorial. The pawn chain pointing towards the king side is an amazing way to set up the board so you can move your major pieces into positions for a good mate.
Good, straightforward, well-designed explanation, thanks.
no it wasn't
Yes it was
@@milothedinosaur2911 yes it was
I have been looking for a video EXACTLY like this: all of the other pawn structure videos reference esoteric openings that I don't understand. Also she has a wicked cool voice.
I like her chess teaching. She keeps it simple, straight forward and tells you why. It's also nice to see women taking an interest. I often feel like the lone geek.
I already know all about chess basics, but I'm watching these videos over and over again because these videos are fun to watch.
These videos are so helpful. I haven't heard of these pawn structure and that's just the thing I was looking for.
I love when they knock A piece down!!!😂
Simple but effective instruction. Thanks for uploading.
double pawns in the center can be very advantageous, as it adds more power to the center squares.
Very good ideas. I have been playing for a long time and have not been familiar with these principles. You explained them well.
I have seen so many end games which result in complex pawn structure. Top players resign I don't understand why they resign. They have the ability to calculate and come up with moves which result in a mate.
A very simple and yet effective explanation of the basics of common pawn structures. Good content :)
The complexity comes in seeing things that are not ebvious, and being able to combine the different elements of play.
Very useful and informative video. Btw, were I'm from, we call a pawn on its own an "island." Thanks for the video. I've learned some useful things.
Learned to baby sit a passed pawn, excellent. Thank You
I always thought that doubled pawns were to be avoided?
It's okay to have doubled pawns if you can later use it to take enemy's pawn.
me too but I have seen computer has no problem to make double pawn as long as they are in the center of the board.
That was great . This video will help me mitigate my own positional weaknesses and exploit those of my
opponents
You can also do that in chess.

How bout a triple pass isolated pawn
HOWEVER
2:18 babysitting this pawn 😂😂😂😂
There are also connected pawns and backward pawn
So i take it pawn structures are better at being potential pawn structures that can come together if you really need them at some point at the game
Nice pawns
She forgot the most important of all... the drunk pawn = the pawn that is constantly falling over by tripping over the players fingers!!!😂😂😂
Can anyone give an analogy of a construction 🚧 worker's approach to chess? How would I apply the knowledge of hanging drywall to chess?
Ew
@@ClaudiaRodriguez-sk1km ?
@@ClaudiaRodriguez-sk1km ??????????
The framing is your pawn set up. The movement of your power pieces is the hanging, and finishing
I heard from many people that two pans in column is a not good configuration. There are no golden rules in chess. If there are golden rules there is nothing challenging. In some configurations two pans in a column may be helpful to win the game.
why does double pawns have 3 pawns?
Also the one like zigzags cuz it protects all of the pawns
The man is better in explanation
But hes not better in tit
pig

Sexist
she is a woman?
Super video, I did not know this.
I think I'm in love a wee bit
Pawn Chain
Double Pawn
Isolated Pawn
Double Isolated Pawn
Passed Pawn
Is it considered worse or better is the isolated pawn in at the edge of the board.
Lady chess, you did a good job with just a few minutes on the clock.
Its easy to moved up the pawn chain but hard to keep it when you take
Thanks a lot
How is it that the rook has a trouble with defending both isolated pawns at the same time?
Very useful info Rebecca, thnx..
no it wasn't useful.
What about a pawn thing? (Idk the name) in a zig-zag pattern
There is nothing particularly good or important about them, however, they can control a lot of space.
link to the board/mat??? Where can it be purchased for europeans?
Seems reasonable and legit to me
What about the jagged pawn structure like a WWW
What about triple isolated pawns? I heard from someone that those are pretty bad to
Just be careful with a pawn chain, because the opposite colour bishop can slide through them.
Love her New York accent
Did anybody else notice that she sounds exactly like Meg (Family Guy) ??
When presenting a chess lecture, it is critical to have a drum machine on the soundtrack.
This move would been better if you had the black chess pieces defending. I never seen a chess game where the other side is stationary
they say if you defend an isolated pawn it can turn in 2
things at once
no words about a zic-zac structure?
Should have emphasized more that double pawns are pretty much never ideal but otherwise good.
I love chess after seeing this video
where or how to buy this chess board?
Awesome
Good game 🙂😊
Nice
Or another bigger piece. You mean the bishop!!!
She sounds like Mila Kunis lol Great video for beginners!
"The taap poawrn, and the baat'm poawrn"
Can you have two queens same color on the board?
yes, by promoting
You can have 9 queens of the same color on the board
Intelligence and beauty in one
no just no
Double negative means yes Milo.
Imagine if you had to roll a dice to see how far you move a piece
Quality info for a newb like myself lol
I like her
0:26 "Each pawn in this pawn chain is protecting one another" Technically not accurate.

Here is a primer on idea complexity and why sometimes a simplified phrase is more effective in communicating an idea.
Subtítulos en español please!
Cris M why
I actually won once using an isolated pawn
You didn't told the connected pawn structure.
are those coins made of wood or plastic ?
Plastic
+Popplio Protector sure ?

Jude Jacinto .
coins????
Pawn are the least important piece so you don’t need to protect the pawn because it does not give anything good

Man, pawn chains are the worst, they are so hard to deal with.
Wow
En passant!
