    Thank you so much! When I attack, I always get attacked myself. These puzzle will be in my tool box and they will be useful on my later games. This is why I love your contents.

    @@shreyaskumar9175 Yeah, Levy isn't passive aggressive. He's pretty upfront when roasting others. The Andrea Botez _is_ the meaning of loud. If you were referring to Alex, then yeah, she isn't loud. It's not about Hikaru being a GM when he draws lines, it's that his lines aren't meant to be instructive, but rather, him trying to explain something that's simply too hard to explain in a live game. And Hikaru is a streamer _and_ a youtuber. Chess Vibes has a lot of instructive videos (and they're good), which is probably what the original commenter really meant about him being #1.

    Nelson, have you any videos talking about what moves or what kind of game you'd like to play, as opposed to what an engine would say is optimal? For example some e4 openings lead to exchange of pieces and I might prefer to have more choice what pieces to keep. Your video on playing (or not) the Fried Liver as black was an example of choosing what kind of game one is comfortable with. Are there more?

    I’m a bit confused about third puzzle because after all that they still could play nf3 preventing qh4. After you play qh8, white can play g3 giving space for the king to run. You can’t play rook to h2 because the knight is protecting that square. Plying rook to h3 doesn’t help either because the white king can go to g2 and protect the pawn and get an escape route. If you play Queen to g8 now, it’s already too late. The king has an escape route and white can threaten winning the bishop by playing rook to b1 then pawn to b4.

    3:57 why the white do not sacrifice the queen with take the black rook pieces in h6?.so,the black didn't have a big threat to white position and lost most important attacker and the white Will have very good chance attacking,position and have many pieces ready to attack black king and defend white king?.

    They can but white loses their queen and the position is losing for white. The rook on f1 is stuck defending f2 because there’s a threat of Qxf2+ if it’s undefended and blacks attack is better because of open h file

  • @NoHandle689x
    @NoHandle689x Жыл бұрын

    I always end up on the defensive end of these situations and get checkmated from way downtown, usually due to a battery attacking my castled king with three pawns on the 7th rank, and perhaps even the castled rook next to the king. There is one principle that says castle before move 10, there is probably a 36th principle which dictates when is the best time to dismantle the castle structure. I cannot find a reference (video or other) for that. Nelson or anyone ?

    In puzzle 2 it's completely winning but white would likely not attack your king. They would take the rook for their queen and hope you slip up in a more complicated state.
