What makes your channel so good is that you actually take lower elo games serious, clearly you're way better but still you go through these matches slowly and explain a lot. Very nice content
10 minute is the perfect time format to allow you to explain your thinking while not being too slow like a classic 30 minute where it gets a tad boring. Love how you think out loud and methodically go through the options and throw in some general advice here and there. You’re an amazing teacher! Thanks!

I’m loving this series. Very educational. I would like to suggest that you game review/analyze the game briefly after the game is over. Think that would also help players. If that makes the video to long though then I completely understand.
I believe he should choose one of the games and analyse it after. But o like this fast pace games.
bro this comment is exactly what I was thinking its a great way to learn and I've went up bc of this guy and the analysis at least 1 game would be nice
The sadness and the disappointment in Nelson's voice after crunching that critical position only for the opponent to blunder the queen and rook... very quiet sads talking for the rest of that game. Big sads 😢
Great Series! Explaining the reasons for move during a game is extremely beneficial. Keep up the good work. Brilliant
This series is helping me a LOT. You are tue best at explaining the thought process. I just won 4 matches in a roll using principles, controlling files and discovered attacks are gaining me a lot of pieces
I watch a lot of chess channels but yours is my favorite. I'm scanning the board and kind of playing along and it has been super educational. Thanks for making this series. Well done!
Great thumbnail, keep it up Nelson!
Great videos. Your instinct at 42:00 to fork the Q and B w/ N to d4, leads to an overwhelming advantage: Nd5 Qd6 , Bxc6 bxc6 , Nxb4 Qxb4 , Bxh6 gxh6
Of course, having your opponent give you their queen works pretty well also.
Thank you so much for this series! I'm learning A TON from this. Your videos are a delight to watch. You explain well and have a very calming and nice voice to listen to. Appreciation from Iceland.
Love these videos. Thank you for explaining the positions in such detail.
Nice thinking Nelson ! Your way of thinking are simply great !! 🙌🏼
Very nice play! I like this one as it illustrates a lot of tactics. Thanks!
As a beginner I have just discovered your channel. Love the pacing and level of explanation of alternative moves without all the extra fluff on some other channels, makes it really easy to concentrate on learning why moves are taken.
Game 1: Pile up on the Pined Piece, Don't play Hope-Chess (Hoping your opponent plays a specific move).
Game 2: Try to have multiple game plans and decide for the best based on the opponent move.
Game 3: If your opponent weakens their King, look for tactics that involve a check, Rooks on the Seventh rank are very powerful midgame, lastly plans are not set in stone, as the game evolve better ideas might show up.
Game 4: Don't cramp up your positions with your own bishops.
Game 5: Take your time on critical positions.
Game 6: If you made a successful early attack, remember to go back and develop the rest of your pieces.
53:03 Bxh4 = free piece for Black?
NO!
Bxh4 = free checkmate for White!
Killer move g4!!
Ke4 only move for Black.
Queen d5 is mate.
When the “Free” piece looks obvious, Don’t take it!
You should know in your heart strong chess players never give anything for free.
Your falling into 1 of the most devastating tricks in all of chess.
You might not understand or know how your falling into their trap, but rest assured they have one.
Very rarely do strong players make outrageous blunders.
That Knight has poison written all over it.
@@XPLAYERJX You say "Ke4 only move for Black", but black gets mated in 1 move that way with Qd5 (as happened in the video).
Your "Killer move g4!!" is not mate in one (black still has Ke4), so taking the knight seems strictly better than your suggestion, right..?
I agree Black will be mated regardless, but fight back as much as possible.
@@MatroidX
You misunderstood what I wrote.
Your statement was:
“Bxh4 = free piece for Black?”
My response to you was No.
It’s a checkmate.
I gave the checkmating moves.
- Bxh4
- g4+
- Ke4
- Qd5#
If you don’t take Knight, it is mate in 1.
If you do take the Knight, it is mate in 2.
No matter what move you play as Black.
The Knight h4 move will not be considered a free piece.
It’s a Knight Sacrifice designed to hunt down and checkmate the King.
Usually, A Free piece is a piece which your opponent gives you by way of a blunder.
Once, you capture the Free piece, your opponent has no compensation or justification for the loss of the piece.
Their is justification for White to play Nh4+.
The move is part of a grand plan to checkmate the enemy King which is unavoidable.
This is why you can’t say Bxh4 is free piece for Black.
-----------
In regard to your other statement:
“I agree Black will be mated, but fight back as much as possible.”
Is fighting to the bitter end with Black better vs. not fighting?
It depends on your chess ranking.
At low chess level, it is considered good to fight on.
The reason why is because most low level players make several errors through out the game.
If you fight on, you give yourself the best chance to make a come back.
At high chess level, it is considered bad to fight on.
The reason why is because most high level players believe their opponent is capable of converting a win.
Fighting on could be considered Rude!
A National Master facing a Grand Master.
The Grand Master up 1 minor piece.
Should the National Master fight on to the bitter end?
He certainly has the right to do it, but should he do it?
Some might say Yes.
Some might say No
Some might say fighting on when he knows he is lost is being rude/jerk.
Do you think the Grand Master can’t convert a minor piece advantage against you?
Do you think the Grand Master is going to Blunder away the win?
Obviously, it is a highly talked about topic.
People can argue all day over this.
-----------
My stance on the issue is the following:
I will fight on if I believe I have chance.
I will not fight on if I believe I have no chance.
When you become a strong player in chess, you can sort of know if you have chances or not.
Sometimes, I might be down knight, but I managed to get 2 or 3 pawns in process.
It can be losing position, but the position could have compensation.
Their is clearly a difference between having nothing vs. having something.
If I feel like, I have something.
I might continue.
If not, I will simply resign.
This is definitely my favorite series. I also like the chest adventure channel.
I stink so bad at chess, so thank you for these videos I find them to help someone like me that isn't great at remembering moves and overlooks things frequently. Can't wait to buy a shirt and sweater to help support your channel bro.
The series that always fun to watch for me 😂. Keep up the contents sir!
It's amazing how calmly you play with your opponents! Simple and easy.
Watching this series has given me such a better understanding of when and how to attack. I’m winning lots of games and my games are a lot more fun
Awesome!
Super helpful thank you
13:52 if black plays b6 their knight on c6 is no longer defended and you can take it with your queen. And if they take yout knight it's a knight trade, but it allows you to infiltrate their position with re5 and Bb3+.
Outstanding 'splaining and playing!
Thanks you .this video is helpful
I also noticed that generally throughout your chess development you'll encounter some hops the first one for me was getting over 800 the second one was to get to 1000 then up until 1250 it was gradual ,now i'm stuck , i think i meed to adopt different kinds of playstyles and thinking patterns , once i break that barrier i will advance rapidly for a while only to meet another barrier
I remember being stuck here but it was actually one of your videos that helped me. The 15 minute italian.
Thanks! Second to none in educating through a game!
That tank top though... Well you are one the best chess youtubers that I have found recently, that's certain! I just wish that your course was cheaper... Keep it up, I'll try and get the most out of your videos-lessons!
I love that you play at 10 minutes. I usually play this time format because it let me think enough without making it too boring. I dont like too large matches and I hate bullets/rapids
Excellent 👌🏾
You are a very good teacher
Hi Nelson. Quick question, at 53:05, after you moved the knight to h4, why weren't you concerned about black capturing the bishop?
Good question. I honestly didn't even see the bishop at d8 at first. There is a chance that maybe even Nelson overlooked it. Anyway, you made me think and I found the soulution. It's a mating net! After Bxh4 there is g4+! and Black's only escape square is e4. After that it's just a mate: Qd5#
at game one, around one minute mark in video, instead of developing bishops you would move queen a5 and check to prevent opponent castling? I'm total noob in chess so i can't see where it would lead but i just got curious and wanted to know if someone could help me, could that be viable strategy?
Bd3 would also be checkmate on that last game, with extra style points for double check!
I love how i just watched a Gotham clip and this immediately popped up next in autoplay
Same here
17:24 I just realized that Rc6 would have been a better play because the opponent could play Rd5 and block the check with their own rook
It’s not better.
Nelson played the better move.
Now this channel is only 50k away from 400k subs
Nelson is on the roll
Against PartyMullis, there was a potential double check with the rook and bishop
I like this new series.
2:00 maybe Nxf3+ gxf3 Bxh3 Re1 is good idea
Thank you Nelson I’ve gained 250 elo by learning from your Smurf videos. Then watched some hikaru smurfing to get better but I’ve dropped back to 650 elo.
44:00 isn't it better to move the queen to g4 and then go to g7 for checkmate?
Return of the tank top gambit!
More of a mental note for me: Move 11 of game 1, white could have played c3 which pushes black’s knight back.
at 15:41 - would .. d5 work? The idea, to Chace the knight on c6 away, opening the tactics to take the night at f4 (and if exf4 then we take the queen with the rook, but now the queen is not protected because the d5 that chased the knight in the beginning)
21:57 :- could have played knight d5.
Black Queen takes d5
White queen takes F6 .
Eventually queen escapes with a good lead
Black doesn’t have to take Knight on d5 with his Queen.
Black can take Knight on d5 with his Knight.
Than White loses a piece for a pawn.
Well it might be 2 pawns, but still not worth it.
Should a beginner like myslef play blitz or rapid??
Me feeling proud of myself for instantly seeing Nd2 when he asked where to move it.
Also me feeling kind of dumb when pointed out Nf4 could be mate in 2. Totally didn’t see that.
You should play the Englund Gambit to show how you can easily get tricked by it in low elo.
@ChessVibes what if he would have forked your queen and bishop with his knight in the 2nd game?
At 7:10 you mentioned if QF3 check, king goes up, that would be checkmate. Can you tell us the moves to checkmate? I can't figure it out 😅
Queen takes the Knight on e3 with check.
King moves to d1.
Rook delivers checkmate on f1.
My problem is not with knowing what to do. Its with moving too fast, not looking for the best move and being too absorbed in my own attack while not noticing my opponent’s attack.
17:27 You will only win a rook, not the queen, with the move Rd5. Blocks the bishop check and intervenes the rook from taking the queen.
That square is still covered by 3 white pieces with another potential discovery after the white rook capture. All that being said I would’ve moved the rook to the other suggested square. Good thought. I’m likely missing a good black followup being a Patzer myself.
White's Rc6 instead would have captured the Queen for sure, right?
You are incorrect!
If Black blocks with Rd5, White takes the Rook with his Rook on d5. Than White has the same discovery as before. Black can’t move his Queen out of Danger.
Any square Black Queen goes to the White Rook will follow with same tactic.
Black needs to play 2 moves in this position. Black needs to move his King & move his Queen both out of Danger. The problem is the rules of chess only allow 1 move to be played at a time.
Unfortunately, in this position, the Black Queen is lost no matter what Black does.
The only thing Black can do is get the most value he can out of the Queen Sacrifice.
Nelson played the better Rook move. Rc6 isn’t as good as the move Nelson played.
If Rc6, Black will play Qd5.
It blocks the Check with Queen.
It’s still losing for Black, but the goal for Black is to get as much material as he can in the process.
After watching your videos, I was finally able to win my first chess match!
20:20 Nelson illustrates the queen being trapped after Nf6 with Bg7, despite the fact that the bishop would be pinned.
Nelson was illustrating how the Queen could get trapped and was making a mental note to think about it.
The Queen can get trapped in this position after a few series of moves if White isn’t careful.
Nelson was telling people the starting move and the finishing move in the sequence of moves.
- Nf6
- Kf7
- Nc6
- Bg7
Nelson is a strong chess player and strong chess players often do the above as a short hand.
Other strong players will know what they are saying, but I can see why you was confused.
Nelson should have explained the whole thing out so beginners players could understand.
It is a video dedicated to teaching beginners so they might not understand a short hand analysis.
You and @AlexBanzea are so helpful that I’m about to get flagged for cheating.
Because I’ve gone from like a 70% accuracy to a 92% accuracy in a week because of you guys
52:25 I think Qe5 is almost mate (net includes 2 black pawns) and you win a bishop and rook quickly.
There is mating net with Qe5+ force Ke7 it's discover check available Ng7+ follow with Rxe8#
15:58 the cat tho
Bookmark : 8:20
Here we go again! In that last game, you traded your 'good' bishop for black's knight, leaving you with a very bad, light squared bishop. This move was in no way forced. So we have another example of basic positional ideas being thrown in the dustbin [ sorry, trashcan....I'm a Brit] by a master level player who, himself, has made videos about the very subject of 'good' and 'bad' bishops. Its no wonder that dorks like me get so confused about the finer points is this frustrating game!
Jeez it's no wonder no one likes you.
Jeez it's no wonder no one likes you.
Master Ooooog
19:25 Kd1 is the move
4:53 free queen.
I've blundered too many queens to pass judgement. 😂
Can u make chatgpt play chess but this time give the NEF of the chess board and your move which will give chatgpt a less chance of giving illegal moves because chatgpt doesnt have good memory or use gpt4
PartyMullis played a solid game for the most part I have to say
At 17:40 you don’t necessarily get the Queen right? Couldn’t he sack his rook on the D column instead by blocking the check? It’s a free tool as you can take it either with the rook (which threaten but it can move) or your Bishop which puts the king back in check but doesn’t threaten the Queen. You could also take with the Queen which forces a Queen trade. In all scenarios you are looking good but it’s not the same as a free Queen?
Still very much winning for white after Rd5
2:15 Why did you take with the bishop instead of the knight? Taking with knight would win a pawn and get the bishop on a great square
Engine prefers what you suggested but only marginally. Both are winning moves.
man where do you find these people that actually resign 😂 so often in my 700 - 1000 elo games people will only resign if they blunder the queen in the opening
14:51 wait that's illegal
After watching this series I've dropped a lot in rating, I've gone from 1200 down to 1050. Paradoxically, this series is just making me worse and worse at chess. Quite frustrating because I enjoy the series a lot and as I watch I feel like I'm making a lot of the same decisions and reasoning as Nelson. Maybe the video is tricking me into thinking I'm making the decisions, but in reality Nelson just has way more knowledge about the game, so when it comes to the real game, I just flop.
stuck at 950 blitz now what
666!
17:46
You are my gaurdian angle...
Rook g8 7:00
He didn’t really address or talk about what was advertised in the thumbnail
let him cook
Nelsi why did you not level up your chess title? You enjoy making chess videos.
I am waiting for 1200 elo stuff 💋💋💋💋
Game 4 that user name lol.
I’m stuck at 500
Is this guy strong or GM? Why at 700 elo
Read the title
Me where?
Nah bro I'm stuck at 1000
The best thing to do at 1000 is literally just stop simple blunders and play solid. People are making blatant blunders till like 1200
Btw, Magnus Carlsen haven't won any game against me
First as usual
lift heavy for a few weeks. THEN wear a tank top
How can a human be 700 rated
Dude why are you playing like a 2000 rated player against 700. Make some mistakes, blunder a piece of two. See what happens. Make a random move and tell us why that random move is bad. What's the point of you playing as a high rated player against 700? The 700 rated viewers doesn't even understand what you mean when you play that way. Especially when you get a winning position from the start.
I disagree on this. I love the way Nelson is playing. I am stuck on 900 and really like the way Nelson is explaining what is going on in his head concerning the position and why he is playing a certain move.
@@maartenduits5381 I like the way he is explaining stuff too, but it's not helpful when he gets a winning position after 5 moves. Like no 900 plays like that. A lot of 900 still blunder and they won't play the most critical move. All I am saying that I think it would be nice if he played a bad move once in a while and explained why it's a bad move and how in the long run this move messed up the game, so that lower rated players can see the mistakes that they make. Also it gives the other opponent a fighting change which makes it more interesting. May be even outline the mistakes that the opponents make and what you should do in this moment. And trust me, it's gets boring very quick watching a high rated player destroy a low rated player. A lot of chess TH-camrs have these types of videos and they get boring.
The 700 rated players don’t understand what? The point is showing how to bring all these basic principles into play at this level and it’s extremely helpful to me. Teaching us how to avoid making blunders with a logical thought process. I’d much rather learn the right way to do things.
Wish you guys would stop creating smurfs for content. The smurfs are making people quit at low rating.
you getting the rating points back anyway. playing better people will also improve your chess more than beating 400s who blunder in the first 10 moves over and over.
21:30 isn’t your queen already trapped? The bishop on c8 is defended by blacks queen. So, Kf8 - Bg8 would win your queen, no?
At the end of game 2, could black have saved the queen with Rd5? It looks like they could have sacrificed the rook by blocking the check.
Yes but it still loses
@@vladimirbajkic8537 They'd definitely still be in a huge losing position, but that would be a bit better than losing the queen. I think that makes Rc6 better than Re5.
Yeah, that's what i said if he went Rc6+ he would win the queen
Hey Nelson, what about a no-best-move challenge? You always gotta do not the best move or you lose
Stock at 350 .. complete noob
Nelson, i found this study by troitzky when a bishop beats two queens, go check it out:
