It's incredible to me that there are composers who dedicate themselves to creating beautiful studies like this. The world of chess is so vast.
If chess was a video game, the composers would've been called modders.
@@Moldylocks Hey... i like that :)
It was the Great Depression, there wasn't much else to do ;P
@@SamuelPearlman Mark Libiurkin lived and died in Russia/Soviet Union.
@@MrSyntheticSmile The great depression wasn't an American thing, it was worldwide. TYL!
Amazing. This is now my favorite chess position. Seeing this, though, just shows how far away I am from playing perfect(ish) end-games, even when they seem to simple.
Don’t worry, I don’t think top grandmasters would find these lines in a few minutes in a game.
There was one fascinating study by Mario Matous where at the end, the bishop had to stay in one diagonal only, so you had to figure out what square in the diagonal is the best. And it came down to zugzwang. You had literally 2 available squares and one loses the game like 6 moves later and the other one wins. It was truly amazing.
Mm⁰
Wow this study is beautiful, this really makes me smile knowing how beautiful our world of 64 squares really is
If somebody figure out this in a real game.. It would be a direct ticket to the hall of fame :)
Amazing.. beautiful and super tricky
Magnus surely can 😂
@@nabyly7283 any 2400+ ELOs can
Not sure they could, after an intense game, you think you have it wrapped up. A computer could do it though.
@@nabyly7283 even he can't
But black draws this game. At 11:25 bishop takes pawn, pxB, Kg6 and draw
Something that might be helpful for videos like this would be to post a lichess link to the opening position so players can easily try this for themselves vs the AI.
Aaron Smith: Of if you want to try it, you could just set up the board position and try it against any strong program or strong online AI. There are only 7 pieces, after all.
really a position like this you should just try and figure out and understand the concept then visualize to the end.
It's take under a minute to put this position
Lichess has a board editor where you can set up any position you want, after which you can analyse it or play against a friend or engine
Surely he can set the position but yt-uber providing link is more good
This is why endgames are my favourite part of chess. Every move has to be calculated with precision and a single wrong move can cost you the game.
Amazing explanation . If possible please make series of this end game
I agree! A very amazing study.
Quick reminder to say whose move it is before you start explaining 👍
Triangulation is so tricky like this. Most players dont have 5 minutes to use on one move when playing at rapid TCs. Despite having a consistent 2k+ rating I am somewhat weak because I avoid endgames.
@10:45 I couldn't figure out at first why the bishop would not just sack itself for e6 check, causing pawn captures bishop and the black king would always be in the square to stop the pawns. But then I realized you could just move to e7 and you'd have all the time in the world to wait for your own king to come give backup. The king can never capture the f6 pawn without allowing a queen.
@theejd013 if bishop takes we take back with the pawn, then the black king cannot stop promotion
Bxe6 f5xe6 | Kg6 e7 | Kxf6 e8 queen
@@1hpgaming235 Black king can stop promotion until the white king arrives by playing Kf7 instead of Kxf6.
@@RMF49 yeah true but ultimately the white pawn will promote because in any case the black king cannot take either of the pawns, one is protected by the other and taking the f6 pawn leads to promotion so in any case its a loss
theejd013: At first, just looking at the board (and not starting the video), I was looking at it as black to move and draw. So it was obvious black had to move the bishop to b3 where it could be protected by the pawn, and that forced black to keep the king within the square of the pawn. Then looking, I see that if the black king stays in front of the white pawn complex, white can't win. So that's too easy.
But with white to move first, once e6 is played, it's completely different. What a fantastic example of a "simple" endgame where you have to know a LOT to play it right!
@@1hpgaming235 you just repeat what op said
What is your point of you speaking here bro
You never brought up term for this type of strategy zugswang, where you keep putting opponent into position to have to make bad move. A simple example is when you have K and pawn against K and are able to maintain opposition with your K against opponent K, ultimately forcing him to move out of the way. Care must always be taken on each move to maintain the zugswang. One bad move on your part and the situation can be reversed.
I believe endgame studies are one of the best ways to really deep understanding of chess. Thanks for the video!
This video format should stay forever!
Thanks Nelson, these kinds of problems are perfect to study!
Brilliant! Please more videos about compositions.
Truly amazing. Thank you for sharing.
Super instructive!! Your a fantastic teacher
A very good puzzle 👌
I am improving small small calculations because of you
2:32 I assumed that the move was played for a Zugzwang but I didnt know the exact idea ( And I was right at 7:56)
At 8:46 I knew that c2 and b1 were right...
At 9:51 also I was right that we should stay near the pawn on the black diagnol...
I am so happy...
Great puzzle, you're a very good teacher, thank you.
Wow so cool! This is one of my favorite puzzles!
Indeed.
It’s super interesting.
Thanks again for sharing.
Thank you for another great video. This puzzle is fantastic!
Great video thanks :) wish more are coming
I do not really understand chess all that much, but the way he talks about the details makes it fascinating to watch his videos.
Thank you for your giving clear and flexible ideas.
I really enjoy these videos of weird and interesting endgames :)
First thing you showed that stumped me at first was this puzzle. Mark is excellent..
Beautiful study, most of these motifs can be found in the horde variant endgames.
Excellent...well thought composition 👌👍
The scary thing is how GMs realize these pitfall positions in a split second several moves ahead.
Very instructive. Thanks
Fantastic ! Also very realistic situation, not contrived
basically its all about zugzwang? amazing
This was probably the most fascinating endgame study I've ever seen.
The ultimate "no u" puzzle
9:10 “this one is a little bit tricky so be careful” 😄 thank you for always taking care of us Maestro 😄
beautiful video!! now seriously thank you for your teaching and asking us to pause the video to decide the move I know I said this before but this not only makes us part of the video but helps us improve even more 😉
Just amazing!!...I wonder if we're struggling to solve this even after knowing this is a probelm and it has a solution..then what would it have taken for the composer to create this beauty..
Super super the way you explained it !!! 👌👌👌👏👏👏👏👏
I love these endgame studies
Incredible! King moves are often the hardest one to find.
very interesting study, thank you
Brilliant study about the importance of "whose turn is it".
Just these few pieces got my head hurting
Very nice, thanks!
Fantastic. Thanks.
The theme of this scenario is, as Aaron Burr would say, "Wait for it."
I was struggling to understand why, @ 10:45 the bishop couldn't just sacrifice itself and then let the king finish the pawns.
There is no way for the pawns to advance without being taken out by black's king.
Then I realised white can leave the pawns side-by-side after taking the bishop and instead move the king up to support the pawns.
I played a blinded ultrabullet against Stockfish once and I had that position! I intuitively avoided the white squares with my king because I felt that the white Bishop could be dangerous and I won
New favorite endgame position. holy crap that was mindbending fun
No one
Stockfish:ah yes my favourite simple position
Amazing find
Completely mind blowing
At 11:27 forward, isn’t it still a draw. Black has Bxe6, Fxe6, Kg6 and from there both pawns can be taken leading to a draw.
White can just play e7 then move its king close.
Thanks, e and f pawn triad, remebered it ;)
After the king takes the black pawn, why can’t the king move up to deal with that bishop that eas going to go back and forth?
I just started looking into chess, it's interesting how much parity tempo comes up.
The position relies on Zugzwang! Now that's cool
Wonderful tricks
This is fascinating.
Once found the idea one can create wonderful situations.
It's an amazing result!!!
Great puzzle
Very cool puzzle.
fascinating !!
great puzzle
out of the world thinking 🤯
Amazing indeed.
Excellent!
Really incredible.
OMG... crazy position... amazing
endgames are extremely tricky, 1 wrong move and you lose a winning game
8:52
The most amazing thing about this puzzle is the king sacrifice on b2.
Sometimes the greatest complexities occur in the simplest of positions.
Thanks for featuring my comment! And what an amazing position!
Thanks for pointing out Liburkin, been loving his studies!
This makes a classic zugzwang example.
At 10:45 black can force a draw by Bxe6 then pxB and the king can catch the other pawn by Kg6
I think white can just push 1 pawn up. Black king cannot take the backward pawn because that would allow the other pawn to promote, and the front pawn is already protected by backward pawn so it can’t be taken. So white king just needs to make their way up to promote the pawn
At time, 10:00, I think the white king can take the pawn because when the black bishop pull back from h7 to g8, the white could simply push the white pawn from f6 to f7 instead of the other pawn from e6 to e7. The would force the black bishop to either back off from g8 back to h7 again or force it to trade the bishop with the pawn. Either way, the white pawn will become the queen. In fact, I believe this the quicker way to end the game than your suggested route.
I think u confused which side’s turn it was. The black bishop was already on g8 before the white king captured pawn. If the white king captures the pawn at that time, then the bishop will move to h7.
Hey Nelson. In your honest opinion, do you think someone like Magnus would have been able to figure this out in game? How much time would it have taken for him? Obviously you don’t know for sure but what is your opinion?
This kind of deceptive, seemingly-simple situation reminds me why I hate chess...and love it, too.
Mind-blowing
Still 4:58 was an interesting position
If Black king eat pawn at Kf6, the pawn at E7 can promoted to queen
At 10:31 black can try Kg5, result no pawn move work again
Instead of taking the pawn, just leave your king in the corner, put the bishop in check and ouala you have a queen
This is pretty awesome
incredible!!
At about 7 minutes in, you're discussing why King to C1 wouldn't work, because after King B1, Bishop H7, you still can't push the pawns. What if you were to go King A2? Avoiding Bishop taking on F5 with check. If bishop back to G8, king takes A pawn. I'm not good at chess at all, just curious why it wouldn't work.
Extraordinary!
More!!
Cant black do bishop takes e6. pawn takes bishop. king g8. Pawn f7 check. king f8. pawn e7 check. Kings takes either pawn. pawn promotes. king takes (draw.)
After pawn f7 check, king f8. White starts moving their king over there to help escort the pawns. Black king cannot take e6 pawn because that would allow f7 pawn to promote, and f7 pawn is defended by e6 pawn so it can’t be taken either, allowing white to have time to move their king over.
I wouldn’t have worked that out 😮
That's amazing.
Actually, at 3:20, they would not capture the pawn as not to lose bishop. They could play bishop H7, which allows the pawn through to create a Queen and checkmate.
But in puzzles, the opponent will always make the best move. Playing Bh7 is a blunder as it’ll allow us to promote the pawn easily. Black would rather sacrifice the bishop to prevent all your other pawns from promoting than to save a bishop and let you get a queen. This would allow black to get a draw instead of losing
Wonderful!
You should have start with who's turn it is.
Those turn wasting moves are for the best players.
what about white pawn to E7..?
Beautiful
Strong NM never heard about famous chess composer.
Amazing !
