Explaining why pros do what they do is just gold
I am new to this channel, I just wanna say your explanations are super clear for such a newbie such as myself. I understand 100% of what you say. You explain slowly and nicely.
I have been on this channel for a while. You are at the right place, my guy.
Yes me too my 600 ass can follow the explanations.
that's exactly meee, i met him 18 minutes ago and became a new subscriber
He’s really, really good. 👍🏻
I can follow what he’s saying, but there’s no way I’m seeing any of those tactics in a game 😢
This was such a masterclass. I'd love more examples of these transitions between middlegame and endgame...I often cannot capitalize on the advantages I have!
Nothing about that was simple. Every move had about 5 lines of thought behind it.
@6:46 I probably just had my best ever calculation of a position here. Im so stoked. I saw the whole sequence of queen sac up to the 2 possible rook & bishop mate lines. (Missed the rook sac idea in the third line), but as a 1300 I've never really calculated this deep with this kind of accuracy. This series is really helping my game, so huge thanks to you.
The problem is also time. Many players in blitz have to make a move by now and going deep is simply impossible. In a way I think blitz is a bane.
its best to play mostly rapid until 1750 then once youre good enough you can play more blitz as you think faster
proceeds to show these complicated moves, I never, in a million years, would've thought of ->"chess can really be simple, if you think about it"
I recognized that "complicated" checkmate, but in a real game i would have never seen it.
That book should be considered top 5 in history. It helped me think of chess moves in a different way instead of "if he moves here i move there" with no ideas.
Nelson, I cannot tell you what an incredible educator you are. I have been methodically going through your ratings climb videos (AverageJoe up to 1100 now) and just absorbing your thought process has raised my level from what was likely 300ish to . . . . well according to my puzzles rating 882 (and climbing). I just defeated 2 1100-ranked players (bots) my last two games, albeit not really great quality. I had one win over a 500 bot that had me at 88% accuracy but my last 2 wins over the 1100 bots were 67 and 61, so not great quality, though I'm improving. I love your channel. It teaches me so much.
I played OTB with a friend the other day. In the endgame we both had a pawn 2 squares away from queening on opposite sides of the board. His was blocked by my knight and mine was blocked by my own rook. As he maneuvered his rook to take my knight, I maneuvered my king to guard the only 2-move path for his rook to my queening square. I let him take my knight, then sacked my own rook with check. Now my pawn was only 2 moves from queening, his rook was 3 moves away from taking it, and his own pawn was now 3 moves away from queening because his rook was blocking it. Proud moment for my 1000-elo brain.
11:37 Why doesn't black take with the Queen Qc4? It's not defended by the rook, because after rook takes c4, it's rook takes d1 checkmate after also taking the queen?
Came here to say this.
I was wondering the same thing
That blunders Rxd8+ Rxd8 Rxd8#
I just noticed Chess Vibes now has more views than there are kilometres to the Sun. Pretty cool.
Because his rating is more than the Sun and Moon's rating.
The sun isn't that far away. Its about the same size and distance away as the moon.
@@alexthurman6808 So 400x farther and 400x larger means "about the same size and distance" to you? Also, you do know what the distance between earth and moon looks like in scale, right?
There is a reason why we refer to such huge numbers as "astronomical"
@@enderyu nah roughly same size and distance. Also the moon isn't that far away either.
@@alexthurman6808why don’t they hit at an eclipse 😂 sorry, your bait is too entertaining
for those wondering the course cost $279
Great job explaining all the lines in this game. I feel like I’m really learning!
Thank you for the videos Nelson.
another great logical chess series, Nelson! 👏👏
Thanks for the video! I've started chess two months ago and your videos help me out, a lot!
Thanks again , must be starting to see a bit more as I did spot the final tactic ! Your videos are most definitely helping me , thanks again
Well done. That was fun.
"Yes there were some complicated tactics but it’s really not that complicated”
Thanks, I really like the way you explain games and all tricks to gain the game. Merci again.
extremely tense battle. Quite the complexity and knowing who’s controlling the squares.
Hey nelson i would really appreciate if you could make a video on how to identify tactics in the endgame
10:54 i definitely fall for it
Thanks, Nelsi! Great video. Is that the book bij Irving Chernev? I read it 20 years ago and really liked it, but mine has another book cover.
Simple ideas but Capablanca had godlike understanding of tactics to pull them off. Nice analysis
Capablanca is simply outstanding. Your narration is insightful as usual. And this book idea is 👍.
I have actually studied this book with an FM who was my coach. So brought back memories.
But I don’t think I am fit to play anywhere more than 1300 fide as for one the competition is too tough, and I am very inconsistent and tend to lose key games by either attacking prematurely or getting over defensive. But still that apart I am a big fan of your work. You are so meticulous and put together fine ideas while presenting memorable games like this one.
Here again, guessing right all the "pause the video" stuff but still blundering my queen on 4th move
Hey Nelsi! I am 14 year old and I am honestly a fan of your channel and muscles and It's been some time watching your videos , around 3 years and I have learnt a lot from watching you , you have helped me improve in such a way that I thought I couldn't reach but thanks to you, I was able to perform better. I really really want to play with you Nelsi, I really do, please see this.
I'll keep on supporting you.
Another great video 📹 ! Well done 👏 ❤Nelson
At 12:45 why not Queen take pawn? It's check so the Exchange of Queen Is obbligated, then you capture with the rook, so you can at the same time defend the pawn at a2 and Attack the pawn at a7.
I'm waiting on that book to come in for me at the library!
One pawn and a ton of sills is all you need, would be a slightly more accurate title
my dumbass woulda taken that queen fr
Great advice!
At 11:27 HE TOOOOK THE ROOOOOOOOOK..!!!!!!
Very easy brilliance
Hey Nelson, I’m from Nepal and I follow your videos regularly. I missed your $100 discount offer on breaking 1500 course because I was traveling to the rural areas of the country during this period. And now it ended. Do you plan to open up the offer in the future too?
White is not "Won" from the starting position. They are just "Better". Engine says the advantage is only 0.5. Black can defend this a lot of the time and they are not even truly down a pawn. They have an extra king side pawn.
Chess Vibes how do you get your board to look like that?
How can I join breaking 1500 course?
Great channel!!
HOLY THIS IS SUCH A GOOD VIDEO
Nice analysis
Very interesting lesson! Thank you
Hey what is going on with the website, I cannot seem to get into our course 😢
This is brilliant.
Ah. The good ol' Pillsbury Knight
But how do you keep them from using the pawn majority on the king side?
You said link in the description, but where is it ?
Always good, often exceptional.
Awesome!
Wooooooow
Natural pure talent ❤
Follow the principles and the tactics will appear.
11:40 couldn't black instead of playing rxd4 play qxc4? Because if white tries to recapture with rxc4, then black plays rxd1+, white has to play qe1 and then rxe1# is checkmate?
If Black plays Qxc4, he abandons the defense of the black rook on d8 and White can simply play Rxd8+ and checkmate will follow soon
Oh you are right, I'm stupid 😂
Gorgeous play…….
Anyone else watching this in 2024?
That simple I can play like Capablaca after watching this video 😂
Vienna next rating climb?
bro said BAD BISHIP hahahaha
IM nelson when?
12:45 Why not Rxc5?
Thank you dr checkmate
Did he say chess is simple?
well... It is, I myself am extremely proficient in chess rules.
All you need is pawn... pawn is all you need
Attention is all you need
12:10 he could have just played c5 because if his opponent tries to win a "free pawn" then Rd8 Checkmate
But the position starts to get stuck when you have an isolated pawn and there are enemy pieces in front of it
And people say chess players were bad 100 years ago.
No one said they were bad. They are saying that, on average, today players are stronger.
Which they are because old players had talent + hard work, while current players have talent + hard work + computer analisys + all the theory invented by the previous players.
@@ACSMEX I've heard people say the strongest players 100 years ago couldn't compete with average GM's today. Which I don't think is true.
Like Capablanca for instance.
@@alexthurman6808
Capablanca was good and a really talented, strong player, although today's GM have a major advantage
@@King1Z7 Maybe until they run out of book.
Most games the player is on their own within like the first 10 to 15 moves.
@@alexthurman6808 If Capablanca manages to take them out of current theory, sure.
But the problem is that chess knowledge build upon itself.
Some people think this simple fact diminishes old monsters, but that's not true.
While tactics are different, if current GMs from today could not outplay a GM from 100 years ago it would mean chess was already solved (at the human level) in Capablanca's time.
That's not the case.
Also, even Capablanca managed to win... Well... He is Capablanca so maybe he could get into the right track in the middle game.
The problem here is that modern GMs would probably go for a drawish line as soon as the game goes south, which is something they would be able to do thanks to superior theory.
Gold
Was Capalanca a rice cooker?
did anyone see the new hack/bug where your opponent has 2 kings? this is soooo unfair
I like your vidio Nelson
I LOVE THIS CHANNEL!! IM A SMALL CHANNEL MYSELF
I'm in Sri Lanka 🙋
Ha! I’ll bet Capablanca never got thrown out of a chess tournament for cheating with a cell phone! 😊
Wow
I, apparently, still suck
👍
Butt
This is wonderful to see but it is no help to intermediate level players. We can't see the ingenious tactics and tricks to make a plan like this work. So either give us feasible plans, that we can implement at our level or you really aren't helping. No offense.
Obligatory TH-cam algorithm comment
The algorithm thanks you
Not an obligatory TH-cam algorithm reply
From me, too!
Obligatory TH-cam bot.
Also, not, but so…
.....
Love the videos! Keep up the good work. Want to say, however, it is pronounced CAPA-BLAHN-KUH lol. Not BLANKUH
Even knowing these tricks ,he plays very bad in streams
