Finally, a video about defending! Chess lessons about attacking have become cliche that it's refreshing to see the opposite to attacking!

Ya always about attacking very few people talk about defending
I find it heartening that these comebacks can happen even at the master level. I need to improve my mindset toward losing positions.

They definitely do, if you watch Hikaru play he is losing at some point in at least half of his games against other GMs but he defends and comes out on top

Honestly, I would find an engagement position as shown after 15:00 to be fascinating. Black is slightly up on overall material but White's king is in a slightly better position as well as having two passed pawns. Seeing how two players of Nelson's ability handling that would be very interesting, I think.
I somehow found all the moves Nelson played. I'm proud of myself.
Ngl, whenever you've asked to find the move, I always found the top stockfish choice :D I wish I could see that in my own games lul

it's funny that I also got most of them correctly quite fast, but I'm a mess when I play my own games... I think the most important takeaway from this is that I should not bother trying to find the best attacking move in any circumstance, sometimes it's easier to defend and let the opponent make the wrong move (at least at my beginner level, this should be a winning tactic).
At last! Defending topic is important for patzer or casual chess player like me. Thank you and hopefully this channel would have 500k subscribers soon!
Great advice and examples. Gotta fight till the end!
I get so excited when I see a move that Nelson missed. Of course I ignore the stress he felt due to time pressure, as well as the thousands of moves which he saw and I missed 😂😂😂
Thank you, Nelson! I think, it was most usefull tips for beginer like me!

Another great video. Thanks Nelson.
Needed this today! Just lost a game that I was hanging on by a thread for about a dozen moves. I just did not want to resign and this makes me feel better about my decision to keep defending and pressing.
1:30 found the best move ..yeayy

Thanks for the video very informative
Another great video. Whenever I watch your videos I always am impressed with how helpful they are for my improving in this game.
Very good lesson ! Thanks
bishop d8 was such a good move for so many rounds and i wondered why you still didnt play it
Very lovely and opaque, this will help me, thanks.
Great lesson here!
I have seen many videos about offense, this is a good one for defense. But what about moves that allow for development without committing to one plan/tactic/attack? A video on that would be nice
Fantastic! Defense can be huge and this video is helpful, especially as black.
The real problem in my opinion is to identify which rules/tips apply in what situation. Because they are at times contradictory. For example you say "if you have only one move, play it quickly, even if you don't want to play it", like Qb8 stepping into a pin. However, you also say "in chess, there is almost always a second alternative" with regards to Nf3+. So when you're defending from a bad position, you have to decide whether to play quickly and likely overlook the opportunities your opponent is giving you, or you play slowly in especially critical positions when you try to avoid an obviously bad move like stepping into a pin. In the end, the better you are at calculation and visualisation, the faster you can consider all your options and then know if there's really just one option that you play quickly, or whether you may want to spend some time. But "being better at calculation" is just not a good tip, that's like saying "just be better at chess". Which would help though...
Do you have videos on "tactics" because I hear that thrown around so often without knowing what it specifically means? Is it just pins and forks?
Nice instructive vid but I do want to add that the only reason why stockfish recommended not retreating your rook was because of b4 Qd5. The fact that the rooks are closed off isn’t sufficient enough reason to just willy nilly give your rooks away. Had white been able to defend against b4 stockfish wouldn’t have liked it.
@14:57 talk about double queen & rook sacrifice!
I seen the bd8 twice that makes me happy
I saw Bd8 right away and if checked, that'd give your king an opportunity to get to g8 and it has an escape square so no back rank checkmate.
yes i was down a queen but decided to continue. the opponent blundered and lost his queen . in lower elos it is always wise to continue playing on
nelson is like me, clinging on to dear life.
Crikey, I'm stockfish at 7:00 😱
DURING 8.33 YOU COULD ALSO HAVE PLAYED BISHUP TO D8 IT IS ALSO A GOOD MOVE IF YOU SEE
omg that was tough, I have lots to learn
3:00 Whoa, right on time.😗 Also, the Queen is defended by the Bishop.☝🏻 Every White Piece and Pawn except for the A Pawn.😉👍🏻
6:39 bd8 I found
Is the queen not defended by the white bishop at 3:00
I love your videos.
Eval bar please
Key takeaway: Play the position, not the opponent... unless you're flat out losing, in which case remember that you're playing against a human and humans make mistakes under time pressure. I've come to terms with needing to do this, but I never feel good after saving this kind of game.
How was the queen trapped at 9:40? Why couldn't it take the bishop?

Stop analyzing when you've only got one obvious move, just move it! Don't stop analyzing for tactics or you'll be mated!
The Best Opening for Defense is the Sicilian.👊🏻 That's why you should talk about Ahmed Adly.☝🏻 By the Sicilian Defense, he beaten Magnus Carlsen.👍🏻
Imagine if u could kill your own pieces in chess if u wanted
The thumbnail changed suddenly.🤨
How did I manage to find all the best move for both white and black. I am 1550 BTW.
I appreciate you showing your mistakes.
Which is why I hate Blitz games 😂 You can snatch defeat from the Jaws of victory, ridiculously easily 🙂

Because of NELSON my rating is 1800+ ❤ Love from 🇮🇳

The problem with chess is that the winner isn't necessarily the one who played better.

That is literally false. Its actually the one game where thr better player ussually wins and thr winner is always the player who made better moves.
Sorry, You didn't win, as much as your opponent lost. I don't feel satiated when I win like that. You are still. IMHO. the top streamer
