Great game by 1700 i myself have 1 win against Im Nm Fm i am 1740 on lichess 😂😂😂😂

This game was honestly the most instructive when Nelson played f5 because the game was at this point already heading towards a race of creating a passed pawn and the thread of pawn promotion. Apex was more concerned of an attack on his king but that is not Nelson's plan in that position since he has it easier to mobilize his pawn majority of 3-2 compared to 4-3 on the other side where Apex had the pawn majority. And as Nelson said around minute 42 trades benefit him because passed pawns become more dangerous when more pieces fall of the board. This was definitely one of the best games in terms of endgame lessons and strategy so far.

my favorite chess series right now

He's a good player. He could probably beat Nelson once in a blue moon It would not surprise me if he eventually got his rating over 2000

Elo was made for chess and it is actually just a number that tries to give a objective chance on the likelihood of you beating another players. If they played 100 games it would probably heavy on wins for Nelson, a few dozen draws and possibly some wins, yes. He plays well for sure.

This series is as instructive as anything chess-related on YT. Nelson got Apex on superior endgame understanding, but IMO it seemed pretty even for most of the game.

Yeah it was pretty even and had my endgame knowledge been better then the game wouldve been a draw. I'm just now getting to the point that my games are coming down to equal endgame play (getting to where I am now games usually end in the middle game to a tactic or blunder) so I haven't had as much experience in these types of positions:)

Well played Apex. Thanks lots of classes there, brilliant game.

I typically enjoy your content but this series specifically has to be the most helpful videos I've ever seen in chess. Long form talking out of positions from different perspectives has to be the best way to learn passively. Truly hope this becomes a regular occurrence, and I'm sure there is no shortage of youtubers who would appreciate a Nelson bump

As a 1700 myself from my perspective, opening was hundred percent equal, but in the middle game better positional understanding and play of the black prevailed. I also like how black came up with the plan very early - 3 pawns on 2, sticked to it and won. Also I didn't like some of the white's passive moves and in 1 scenario I am certain he's blundered. Overall very useful and instructive game to watch, thanks

Incredibly strong 1700 player

You two should rematch!!!!

It was cool to to finally see a game where both players are stronger than me (at my peak, I'd probably lose 300-400 rating if I started playing now) especially with the exact dynamic of 1 player is just a bit better and the other significantly and just how the difference in general endgame understanding plays even though neither extensively studied it. My feeling is the game got much harder after he traded the bishop for knight going into a pure rook ending.

@20:00 neither of you considered pawn to g4 for white, is there something wrong with this move that I'm not seeing? I think that's what I would have picked in this position.

min 36:35 instead of moving the King, how about Knight to f3 = attacking his Rook and his Bishop(discovered attack) at the same time? Or am I missing something?

This wasnt high stake tournament game Nelson didnt need to force early queen trade for slight advantage

Agreed

Can u also upload the video from your perspective only

Shows how valuable pawns can be. Many a game is won by having just one extra pawn.

It's amazing that there's c4 in a game this old

I had studied Vienna gambit a month ago but when I saw it again now, understood that it's really scary for the black. Nice video

You should play again Kamryn that would be interesting.

Very instructive! There were several times the 1700 said "I forgot about ...." -- oops! And he never considered that the pawn majority would win, whereas the NM was playing for that early on.

nice game there

White has Rg2+ and then moves his bishop.

29:33 I was thinking Bc5 putting pressure on the rook and just trade dark squared bishops. Plugged it into an engine and it says black should take the knight in that situation and if white takes the rook it’s -7 absolutely crazy

@JimBalter

3 ай бұрын

You gave up 2 pieces for the rook, gave black a passed pawn, and white's king is trapped, so what did you expect? But for me Stockfish only reads -2.25 at depth 33. BxR is fishy as hell ... take the bishop for an even game.

Can’t believe he gave up the bishop pair. I would’ve taken with the Knight first at e4.

The difference was the ”wasted moves” when he moved his bishop and and the king back to it’s original square after long castle

They are purely reading the opponent's next move and evaluating the position. However, their accuracy is very high.

We play against the board so our opponent is black or white, rather than a person with a gender, and we refer to that abstract opponent as "they".

Good content Watch both chess streamers to try improve

Mr. Beast????

Am I crazy? I felt there were a lot of positional mistakes and oversights by the 1700. Not seeing g5, not using his knight, moving the bishop multiple times, not thinking about the endgame, unnecessary tempo wasting moves like h3, not trying to see any tactic or trying to attack. I feel I play better people at 1400-1500.

To respond to you im going to do it by sharing with you an homologous case (im 2200 just in case u call me a 300 who has no idea about chess). I play rocket league (a videogame) and im plat (maybe in terms of elo that would be like 1000-1200). I tend to think that people in my rank are much better than in diamond (the next rank) and more often than not when watching KZread videos of this other rank will say that i deserve to be there, because they make such obvious mistakes that I would NEVEEEERRRR do. The reality is that I do make them. Watching a video and finding the mistakes of the player once they are commented on does not mean that the player who made the mistake is a bad player. He's not, and we all do mistakes. The only difference is that he makes less mistakes and of a less order than magnitude than you, and that's why he's 1700 and you are 1400-1500 and im plat and not diamond unfortunately.

This game was completely balanced until move 31 and then after that he gave me another drawing chance in which my endgame knowledge failed me. Not seeing g5 was a huge oversight but it happens to the best of us, there wasn't really any tactics to see and its hard to attack with such little pieces. I definitely should have thought about the endgame more than I did however but that's part of the learning experience:) h3 was definitely a wasted move but I guess I wasn't so sure how to proceed. I think as someone else mentioned in the comments here, the biggest difference between a player 1400-1500 and 1700 is just how often they make mistakes. I was 1500 just like 2 months ago and I believe the only thing that changed is I started paying attention to my opponents threats more and making less blunders
