Notifying Kramlik the Procedure

Rc8, threatening Rc8-c1, then Rh1#. From what I can see, the only move that stops it is Rc7, after which Rxc7, Nxc7, KXc7 leaves black with only pawns. f3 is countered by h5, keeping the King trapped., and if the d pawn moves the king can capture at his leisure. Ra1 allows the capture of the a pawn, after which the rook on rank 2 or 3 traps the white king, and you can secure checkmate either by bringing the king or promoting the A pawn. Just keep the rook off rank 1 to avoid blundering into stalemate.

You are an awesome coach! I really enjoy your videos! Well done!

Thank you for putting that arrow in the thumbnail, I would have never noticed Bobby

@@sbuzulu3693 play solid, look for the best moves for you and the opponent,look for checks and captures, don't weaken your position, don't get greedy, evaluate the position create constant threats and finally make sure your opponent doesn't enter your half of the board especially don't let them infiltrate this I very important

Thanks for a very valuable insight!

I've watched a bunch of your videos, and I have to tell you this is the best and most helpful video you have made in my opinion. Thanks for your hard work!

Good examples with demonstration quite helpful, thanks.

One of your best videos Igor, thanks!!!

Igor, your video tutorials are so clear and helpful. Thank you for yet another excellent lesson.

Glad you like them!

Igor is teaching you guys how to go from intermediate to the next level but so many people in these comments dont want to learn the lessons hes teaching so they convince themselves they need to learn something else, like opening traps or harder tactics. Dont be a horse that wont drink. Take time and practice the things he’s saying. This doesnt not apply to you and you dont “know more what I need than he does”. Play slow, rethink moves with these fundamentals in mind. It’ll slow down then itll become second nature and youll get better.

I would love to see some of your games that you have played and you analyzing it explaining your mind set during the games! And why you made your moves

Thank you!

GOOD STUFF IT HELPED ME ALOT THANKS 👍😊

That example game featured an insane amount of counterattack on both sides! Both sides trying desperately to ignore each other!

10:49 for puzzle of the day black can play Rc8 and there is no way for white to stop black playing Rc1 without giving up material. If black manages to get the rook on c1 then mate is forced on h1

Rc8-c1?

I've been watching you 4 about 4 years now. You have really enlightened me. I'm gonna say, I wanna push the "g" pawn. It fits your hint of don't defend, but attack. The d5 pawn forking my pieces bites, but is not decisively damaging. So, cross the center, attack the Knight!!! Where's it gonna move! Hope I'm correct! On with the video P.S., I do hope to be able to $$$ someday sometime on a few of you instructive videos.

I guessed what the concept was going to be in the beginning of the video because Fischer was so aggressive and taught me the same thing.

Ok, did not see the move of R-c4, before the Queen exchange. Uggg, well, at least you taught me this far! Thank you

Thanks igor for this video❤

Rc8 starts checkmate attack after R8c1 and Rh1#. White can only stop that sacrifising Rook and Knight for the Rook, which means that white will win the game: The pawns f2, d5 and a2 get lost and after that it's an easy win with the a7-pawn to promote into a new Queen. Black only needs to check that he won't produce a stalemate

Thanks again, Igor.

1:25 Why not either rook to e8? I'd move the inactive rook from the h8 corner pinning the pawn to the queen. They can of course take the pawn, let you take the queen and it seems dangerous, because white's pawn is one square away fro. promotion, but the other rook guards the 8 rank.

How about Rg8 with the intention of going Rg5 and Rh5#? This would also guard against white’s Kc7 in future in case black king needs to take pawn on d5. After black’s Rg8, white loses a tempo if they try to capture either of the two pawns available. The only move to guard against mate is pf4 which opens up the white’s position to attack with two rooks.

After Qc5+, best move is not KxB but d6 attacking the Queen.

Best chess teacher!

For 10:51 I think 1...Rc8 to threaten 2...Rcc1 to threaten mate using the pawn's blockade over h3.

Great explanation of attacking rather than defending, a big problem here

At 17.25 minute can white just go for bishop takes rook then if knight take gueen bishop takes knight

Где ты научился так играть? Получается у тебя прям офигенно, чел, продолжай!))

Rc8/81looks a really hard to stop mate threat.

For the puzzle, I'll play Rc8, white will have to play Rc7 to give up the rook and knight for the c8 rook, otherwise Rc1 followed by Rh1# seems to be unstoppable

Thank you Igor I love your channel..... Are you sure doing it the American way which is just giving it money and hope it goes away is it the right way????

Can you make a video for advanced and master level players

@@Eobard_Thawne123 Yes but Igor's content is awesome and his rules are universal. I'm 2300 Blitz on cc and his tips such as 'to take is a mistake' are really helpful. I would love to see at least one video for advanced player one day (and I'm sure the audience will not be mad about one video :P )

Hanging two pieces is really the same as hanging one piece, so might as well counterattack

14:38 wait... so the girl on right (White) already lost on time, but then they keep playing and the one on the left (Black) resigns? What's going on here? Who did win this game? 😀😀

Well, I got to the Knight checking the white king. Gonna need more teaching to get past that(or a long nap before my 🧠 reactivates).

No way, I can't believe that was the answer.

After d5 I would play g4 thinking: hey he takes a minor piece, hence me too

I'm not very good, to put it mildly but, rook e7, blocking the rxf7.

Nxd4

Carlsen said he would do chess boxing for $10 million.

My brain hurts. I feel the 3rd best move is to move my Q to f4 , if their Q takes mine, I check with my knight for a fork on their Queen. Try for an end game. Ok, what's best

Ok, 2nd move, I'm thinking Nx d4...

Yep. Ain't no perk in the Pirc!

good

Was he the best of all time? No 1?

rook to c8 .

I don't like that fischer said women cant play chess. My gf crushes after three months playing a lot of 800 s in blitz 😂🎉 people who train since a longer time.
