I've been feeling the urge to play chess again and I tricked myself into thinking I'm better than I am. Let's see what sort of damage we can do on Chess.com again!

That first game was so painful. The knight just came into his base and killed all his dudes while he sat and watched.
Bruh. That was so horrible to watch. Multiple opportunities too to get rid of that knight too
As a a sub 1000 player... seeing that fork coming and seeing a 1400-1500 player double and triple down on his error gives me hope
That was so confusing
Upon engine analysis, 24 ...b5 is not even that bad, nor is 25... bxc4. His main mistake is to play 26... cxb3 instead of Rxd8, and 27... bxc2 instead of bxa2 which would have let him threaten promotion
I barely even play chess and I laughed so hard.
That knight was in the base killing the dudes and NL was completely unfazed
I miss the oft game analyzations. Either when he wins or loses its fun to watch him have a conversation with the computer.
i dont know why but i love him trying to find the best moves! chess is so pogged
I also miss the longer games but happy to get any chess I can get!
loving the "resign chess"series NL! quite the weird game mode , with all the resigning and stuff , but still fun to watch.
early in the video "i don't think [resigning a lot] breeds a bad habit, necessarily"
later in the very same video "the worst part about resigning a bunch, is that now, anytime i get into a slightly bad position, i'm like 'oh, i'll just resign.'"
lol
This perfectly summarized what NLs content is all about. Preaching advice and wisdom while simultaneously doing the exact thing he advised against. Never change Ennele
"What would you do if you suffer the slightest setback in a chess match?"
NL: "I think I would probably just punch my own ticket…"
All NL chess content is pog but I do prefer the 5-10 min + analysis games.
“Okay, I see the problem here”
-Man who does not see the problem here
The best part of chess videos have to be the scream "Aaaaaaaahhhhhhh" when NL blunders, absolutely goated moments
He gets youtubed in this one doesn't he
That last guy just said "I don't even know why I come to this website anymore." Then got up and walked out of his bedroom.
That little involuntary sound he makes at 13:00 when he realized he blundered a rook 😂
"AAAHH!! I resign" is ingrained into my brain at this point.
NL, you are much better than the average Joe at Chess. As a person who only knows the rules but loves your content, you got me into it and I feel like I've learned a bit from you. I'd kinda like to see you go over more of your losses since I also go, "maybe he coulda done this here?". And you know I'm usually wrong but it's still neat to see how accurate you were and what moves fumbled. :)
Deciding to stop being lazy and immediately dominating the guy was satisfying. Pogged chess
I absolutely love this era of chess. The 90/10 split of mostly "I'm just here to have fun playing chess" with just a dash of tryharding and chess theory now and then is just the perfect vibe. And even though you've said your goal is just to have fun without focusing so much on improving, I do think you're getting better. Or maybe I'm just getting worse. But either way, you keep finding good moves I didn't see. You also find a lot of blunders I didn't see but that's part of the beauty of it as well. Thanks for the content as always NL
3:21 rook to D1 check resolves the fork without losing a rook for nothing.
"This feels rather draw-ish" is the ultimate "I'm saying something but not really saying anything" remark. Perfect amount of snark.
The opening on 4:20 was a clear attempt at Stafford gambit which NL luckily missed, though it would have been a great content.
The best thing about myself sucking ass at chess is that I can never judge NL for making mistakes as I know for fact I'd make them too and realise waaaaay later than him, I'm honestly just pogged to watch him play, win or lose!
I think the "for fun chess" can also just be "bad chess" Lol bro you really just let that knight kill your dudes.
9:00 says resigning so much doesn't create a bad habit. A couple videos ago he resigned down 1 point of material and down 2 according to the engine in the mid game lol
The title of this video should be more like: I resign.
Back from vacation ready to catch up on the absolute ridiculous amount of Pog chess and rumble verse
These morning Chess videos lift my soul
Holy crap that first game almost gave me an aneurysm. I just kept yelling "WHAT ARE YOU DOING??" at my screen after he failed to take the knight after the initial fork
-Hey, we're out of eggs
+This is resignable
Your chess videos always come out right when I get home, thank you
These videos should be titled “I resign.”
As always, some truly insane chess today. Loving the avant garde playstyle, even if it does occasionally backfire
I’d love a pogchamps tournament right about now
Chess has become my go-to lunchtime video to watch, and I couldn't be more pogged for it
Always love the chess! Resign when you want, play the time control you want, analyze the games you want.
first game, move 11, what do y'all make of Bb4+, Kd1 Be7? the bishop check is safe because their knight is pinned to the queen; given elo and time controls there's a chance white overlooks this and blunders, and otherwise you've prevented them from castling and can still bring the bishop back to stymie their attack.
Yeah, it's not a bad idea. NL was hyperfocused on not losing his pawn on f6, so the tactic just passed him by
This chess is truly insaneo style.
Hi NL, I originally discovered your channel through GothamChess, and now my wife and I can't get enough of your react court series! I'm just here to say that I enjoy your chess content whether you win, lose, resign, get TH-camd, or go sicko mode--so as long as you're enjoying playing, I'm sure there are plenty like me who will continue watching 😊
dooode the promoted pawn at the end of the first game rip
That first game 🤣🤣
- blundering all the pieces
- 1 (one) good game
- yasser seirawan mentioned
Yep, it's chessin time
NL, you should really take a look at the Danish Gambit and Levy's black gambit repertoire. You're gonna have much more fun with minimal effort
3:35
Never change, my favorite Egg.
NL, I have only started playing chess as a result of your videos and know nothing; therefore, you are a chess genius in my mind. Epic games king
😅
Still loving the chess vids!
Would always appreciate some more analysis after thr games, but love the chess content no matter what you do with it
Thanks for coming back to chess it’s (weird as it is to say) really helping me get through a bad place rn
Hope you make it out of Detroit soon, brother.
I just love the half hour of madness that chess is, you never know if he is gonna be a genius or just blunder everything away
"I will not push my C pawn to protect my king because it hangs my B pawn"
moves king so he can't castle
immediately pushes C pawn for literally no reason
"oh no my B pawn!"
I like that NL is getting back to the roots of playing like a 700. sneaking him into Guess the Elo would break levy
the beautiful game at its finest
thanks for the company
It's like NLs evil twin got access to his passwords.
NL thriving while having abandonment issues. He's turning into Little Orphan Annie.
I don’t have a problem with resigning if the game is already lost and it isn’t interesting anymore. If you can do something fun while down and maybe make it close i always enjoy that over trying to win a end game with just pushing pawns down to try and promote or earn a piece.
“Once a game reaches its scatalogical conclusion, it’s time to resign”
8:55 That's the one thing (besides the basics, which you are quite good at) I don't think anyone could complain about. Playing a lost game just to be stubborn is no fun.
Resign all you want, but please check the analysis to let us see where things went wrong :)
It's pretty obvious where things go wrong. It's the massive blunder that usually loses a piece right before he clicks the resign button.
You could try to implement a rule where you gotta do game analysis on the games you resign, so the comments get the game analysis and you get to save face😂
The 2nd game is even more painful with that alekhine's gun set up for 3 moves not being used to get the easiest checkmate ever.
Black played h6 super early and NL only had a dark square bishop. Even trading off both rooks, black's king is pretty safe
Fun to watch! Love the chess content
It Hurts Daddy 😭
It Hurts 😭
Resign meta is big snooze energy
The Resign Arc was hard viewing, but it was worth it for the rage quit
Maybe the mixed emotions we get from psycho chess is bringing us back all the time. Lazy chess mixed with accidental genius
I want whatever NL was on during that first game. Dude had a massacre occurring in his base and he was just blissfully numb to it all.
Hilarious chess as ever bossman! Love it!
"I think you learn more when you're not just fighting back from a losing position."
You really learn more by doing more analysis on the games you lose not just the games you win to POG to your good plays too, but who's counting 😉
If you can’t handle me when I resign,
You don’t deserve me at my brilliance
doing my part to pog out the algorithm
this dude is obsessed with pawn structure. while blundering 500 elo tactics
the length of time that NL's opponent's e4 pawn was hanging in the third game gave me anxiety
Loving the chess (chess)
Ryan "I resign" Letourneau
Horsey boy do be schmooving
first game was pretty great. even before the pawn take, oh man that c6 woulda slapped.
Yoo against the queens gambit make sure to defend your d pawn with a pawn (c6 for a Slav defense or e6 for queens gambit declined). Very important, white had an advantage from the very beginning of the first game because you defended your d pawn with the knight
umm .. not the best chess this time, but who gives a shit I'm here for it. Keep em up NL
If you’re wanting to analyze more, try longer time controls! Maybe even just going up to 5 minutes would help
Instead of playing knight f3 or knight c3 you should try more openings where you push the f and c pawns to get some more interesting positions out of the opening
It's the Great Resignation arc!
NL, I agree about stalling out but at least it's 40 seconds. People stall me out in Rapid all the time when they have 7 minutes on the clock 😂 It's an embarrassing way to play the game imo. Great games though and as always I love the chess content!
I play way worse when chess feels like a chore. After taking a couple days of a break I'm doing well again.
"Don't abandon the game though." _looks at video title_
Chess is good. I approve this video.
Great content ma dude
I'm lovin' it.
God is good. He blesses us with chess 😎
Chess content Huzzah!
Video posted 10 seconds ago. Pog
Youre my joint and chess ritual
That first game dude 😂
Okay, it’s at least the first three games…it happens man
Fuck all the other comments, this chess gameplay is Pog 10/10.
They do be entertaining games though
It’s time
I spent most of this video wondering how he could possibly be playing literally without even thinking for a moment what would happen after every move - and then I realised he's been telling me the entire time. He actually plays on instinct. I thought he just meant having good heuristics, but no. I'm still flabbergasted how that even works. No wonder he only analyses his good plays, and resigns the rest: he only means to refine his instinct. You can actually see what happens when he says he's actually thinking it through and it takes him 10+ seconds to work out a simple trade - he really doesn't normally do this. In chess. He plays on instinct in chess. I didn't think that would even be possible. My entire worldview is in pieces thanks to this man.
> 2 minutes ago
hell yes!
As usual, it was super pog. Don't forget to answer on "Was this player a good sport?" on people who rage quit and people who don't
play some 10 min chess please
Sometimes losing is winning. Content is better at least :D
I want to see @gothamchess review these games.
Yes
i like this!
“I resign”
awsome stuff keep it up
We want more😂
