I heard last year that your rating will suddenly go up if you have not been playing consistently for a while. Dina (Naroditsky's gf) addressed this in one of her videos.
Most likely new players joining the platform are worse and bring down the average elo - making it easier for a player of stable skill to increase their skill. Or it's cheater refunds
I see a lot of fianchettos going bad because pieces are being developed onto weak squares where they spend the whole game staring at pawns. That also cost Eric a 150+ winning streak.
The game played around 40th minute of the video was awesome. When I saw those two knights threatened at the same time, I thought "oh man, one of them is gone." But Nelson's brillant move saved the day. Way to go!
@trapfanthom8538 I hope my sarcasm was obvious too. O:-) I was really surprised it took Nelson this long to figure it out. I guess since they weren't recent, he just discarded the option.
At 2:06:58 another way to break his position (which I saw during the game) was with Qxc5+, forcing him to block in front of his immobilized King with Qe7, then hops Nd7+ to force his King away from the Queen to Kg7, so we grab his Queen with Qxe7 and he gets the bishop Kxg6 but is already severely busted.
Ilovetheamazon, the "suspicious" NM played about 100 Rapid games during his rating climb in December and only about a dozen Rapid games in the months leading up to December. Perhaps he improved overall and then focused on Rapid as of late. Or maybe he's a rice cooker. Hard to say?
He always watches for when Nelson plays so he can play him. Guy could be stream sniping so in order for Nelson to give commentary, he has to play people who likely aren’t watching the stream.
Nelson needs to block players he has played repeatedly before, so he gets different players. He can take those players off the banned list after a while
Common theme with games he lost: ignoring basic opening principles, not developing minor pieces onto good squares, not castling, multiple moves by same piece, not competing for the center, an early gambit that works great against low rated players like me but these are 2400s...
Hey Nelson you forgot to report 2 people you lost to. Maybe you can report magnus carlson too, for being too good! 🙄. Oh yeah and keep running from Alex crafter... Jeez, is your training focused on how to be a chicken?
The second game against BadTheory was a good lesson why you should kill the game when you have oportunity. No need to play fancy
I think you need to take a short break after a loss… you seem to carry the frustration into the next game and it affects how you play.
Your games seem like they go on forever... you have time to explain, think, etc... I play a 10 minute match, and it flies by
Tell me about it 🤣 seen him do it in 3m games too 🙈
Yeah so true. When playing I was like let me think about this and reason out like Nelson does. Not there yet 😂
Nelson played 11 cheaters in December. Wow.
Rc1 & or Nc8 and white is up big. That game was definitely a gut punch!
Appreciate your courage & fortitude…

Nelson got up to cook some rice in that one game and still came back to win haha! Good games!
“Sorry I just had to take a Quick Look at my rice cooker.”
He would win if he did "cook rice" 😂
Game 1: fabulous pawn chain while your pieces are getting massacred.

I feel so smart that I knew it was cheater refunds all the time...
it was obvious

If your mouse slips a lot maybe you should get a new mouse, sometimes the buttons can get faulty over time
Happy New Year, Nelson. I was thinking when you first mentioned ratings discrepancy that cheater points had been restored. 😊👍
I did see that video Nelson. It was awesome! I had my own just a couple days ago. Two brilliant knight moves in a row.
Interesting to watch but sure do wish you would go back to teaching us about end game theory.
Happy New Year Nelson!!! Wishing you a good year filled with health and happiness.
You should challenge Hikari Nakamuro sometime.
Yeah would love to see that
I love Nelson, but he would get crushed. It wouldn't even be close.
I'm Just Happy😂 cracked me up so now I'm Happy 🤣
He cramped your position with center control. You knew that. But he made it seem easy with wide open reign
At 2:06:58 another way to break his position (which I saw during the game) was with Qxc5+, forcing him to block in front of his immobilized King with Qe7, then hops Nd7+ to force his King away from the Queen to Kg7, so we grab his Queen with Qxe7 and he gets the bishop Kxg6 but is already severely busted.
Why doesn’t bishop attack Queen.? In the early moves.
I kind of feel bad for that badtheory guy. It sounds like he wanted to befriend you lol.
44:55 Another mating pattern for us to note well.
Did you get points credit from fair play reimbursement?
points added on after rice or cheaters
check with bishop 34:23
Maybe they found a rice cooker
The opponent was the first one to play a subpar move 2:59:38 out of the opening. So if anyone's play was "interesting" here it'd be Nelson's 😕
I think you got rating points added to you after confirming you lost points to a cheater
Some weird games for sure, but not dull. That one guy that played the Holloween gambit perfectly, hmmmmm.
1:20:14 he spent over a minute on that move that wasn't great and then went onto play losing moves. nothing suspicious.
I know my rating is low, but I can't still offer chess advice.
Don't play tilted.
Kng g4 trap queen bishop f5.

Knight tates d5
Just plays so damn slow. Just fast forward to the last min then it gets exciting.
What happened with Alexcrafter
He always watches for when Nelson plays so he can play him. Guy could be stream sniping so in order for Nelson to give commentary, he has to play people who likely aren’t watching the stream.
@drewfenton866 oh i see, thanks
2455 ?? stockfish is cooking rice ! 😅

As much i love to see you play you kill me with more of the bad moves you make

man thinks he is nelson
Obligatory TH-cam algorithm comment.
Number 2 is a blunder?🙂 If Be6 was number 2 how is it a blunder 🙂
The one thing I hate about his video is that he believes that he is unbeatable. Therefore, if you beat him, you are cheating.
Hi 😅😅😅
badtheory1 game was your too win keep attacking but overthinking too much you deserve that lost
Tf is that supposed to mean?? Speak english
Hey Nelson you forgot to report 2 people you lost to. Maybe you can report magnus carlson too, for being too good! 🙄. Oh yeah and keep running from Alex crafter... Jeez, is your training focused on how to be a chicken?
Show us on the doll where Nelson hurt you little buddy.
Found Alex Crafters alt
Alex watches all of Nelson's livestreams and then cheats ....
Your brain might be damaged😅
U r vey much welcome to find a TH-camr upto yr liking and leave , Block Nelson forever.
