I'm always frustrated when I find a mating net because it feels like I'm missing the tactic or mating pattern that will end the game. I hadn't thought about how much of an advantage mating nets offer by tying pieces down into defending the king. This is a good lesson in patience! Thanks for another thoughtful video.

I've seen a lot of youtube videos regarding chess... But most of the time they talk about only theories and stuffs that are hard to remember. But you're giving the general ideas of chess, like how to approach a solution, or how the thought process should be... That's what we, beginners/intermediate players really need - "THE GENERAL IDEAS" Thank you for all of these...

Its like you read my mind amit. Thats what I wanted to say too. He isnt giving us lines to memorize or positions. He is giving us general ideas to look out for when it comes to our games. He is the best in this regards.

This is new to me I always thought a mating net had to end in checkmate. Now I understand that it is more about restricting your opponents pieces and that most of the time there will be no checkmate, but a good advantage. Excellent video thanks for uploading it.

I feel like this is one of the best videos you've made. People already teach about mating patterns, but I've never seen anyone explain the difference between a mating pattern and a mating net. On top of that, I've never seen anyone except for only one other chess KZreadr explain what mating nets are. So thank for for making a video about these concepts. Also, it would seem that mating nets are the more useful skill, since a position has to be set up in a specific way to even allow an opportunity to use a certain type of mating pattern, but a position could allow an opportunity for a mating net so long as a player's king is vulnerable to being attacked by enemy pieces and not easily able to rally their own pieces to defend. So again, good video. 👍

Great lesson, very well explained.

We were hoping this was a different kind of mating net! (; But still a great video!

This is a great concept I never understood mating nets at this depth before and just knew it mainly as a vocabulary word. Thank you

Thanks for the video! Thinking about the restricted squares around the King helps to recognize the net and then build a plan for next moves.

The power of the mating net idea can be is that the threat is stronger than the execution Great video Love your channel looking forward to more of the position analysis style videos

Hello thanks for the vids as usual! Do you have any advice of how to actually see tactics in real games? I’m a beginner and I’ve improved quite a bit at seeing basic patterns in the puzzle context (forks, skewers, mate in twos and more) but actually applying that in real games is proving more difficult. I’ve heard masters talk about certain points in games where you should stop and think because there are likely tactics but maybe it’s just about playing more at this point and it’ll just click

@ChessVibesOfficial

3 жыл бұрын

Hmm... You're right it definitely comes with practice. But one big tip I can say is to look for certain features about a position, and then ask yourself what type of tactics could possible come about from that? Example: Your opponent's king is on e8 and his queen is on e7 right in front of it. Because they're lined up, I'm immediately going to look if I can bring my rook to e1 and create a pin on it. Now suppose there are some pawns blocking the e file. Can I make a capture first that opens it up for the rook? That's just one example, but there are lots of features you need to pay attention to, and a lot of times you can find tactics from there. Kind of like working backwards I guess. Hope that helps!

i thought i knew what a mating net was then i looked it up just to make sure and i learned some pretty good insight from this video. You don't necessarily need to get the net to force a mate for it to be useful in your strategy, in this video he shows that even without mating the king, you can still get strong control over the opponent's king which can help you have a much easier time in the end game. just the threat alone is enough to make them play differently and if they slip up and don't know about the concept then the mating net set ups can be lethal as well

Good followup video would be how to actually proceed, how to find a plan what to do

What's the ending music??

You are cool and instructive

9:50 I have a doubt.. Does Ng3 work with the idea of Rg2# and he cannot prevent mate, he can delay it with Rd2 but we capture it and Rg2 is coming next..?

Nice lesson... Mating Nets is used to avoid mosquitoes around...

How does this man place arrows everywhere. Seems useful 👍

i actually ended up getting a mating net today, it was soooo satisfying to do checkmate with a rook, bishop, knight and king same time.

At 9:58, why didn't you play Ng3 and then Rg2?

@tommym02n79

2 жыл бұрын

Most likely the bishop? Ng3 is not a check so white can go Bf2 blocking the rook and attacking the knight.

Knight to G3 then Rook to G2 would have been a check mate in 2 !!

Rook to d2 Can delay it So Its also Mate In 3 .

10:02 isn't NG3 m2?

I hate it when you see a potential mating net that's too deep to analyze with a time control but requires you to sacrifice a minor piece so it's almost a gamble at least for me.

I learn something every time...thanks...I am about 1800

Typically a mating net means that the king IS going to get checkmated in a matter of moves.

At 9:50, I'm pretty sure that Ng3 is mate in two.

@flamingzucchini7843

2 жыл бұрын

If white plays Rd2, then it stalls the checkmate for one move, making it mate in 3

I literally searched this video on youtube cuz I was frustrated cuz I always miss mate in 1 or 2 in my games

The game where the opponent could offer to trade knights, wouldn't that weaken your attack?

At 9:55 there's a mate in two knight g 3 then rook mates king

Nah, after Ng3, white has Bf2 and blocks the rook

Mating nets are very powerful, once you have one and use it correctly, there's no chance for your date to escape.

Never play F3

Difficult to know whether to take material or not if it allows the opponent's king to escape the mating net though. They offer you an exchange. Should you take it? Not easy!

Good shit

It was a mate in 2 Knight to g3 Rook to g2

At 8:30 white should have played bc3 then white would have got a free knight

You could have mated with nite to f6 and then bishop to h6

İf you moved your knight first there you would get mate in 2

With the smothered mate example at the beginning, black didn't have to move the king into the corner - he could have taken the knight with the g pawn.

ya be careful and watch out for mating nets. watch for red flags when you first meet her. its always the selfish and crazy ones.

hey nelson, just letting you know I watched and commented on this two year old video solely because you're pulling a stupid face in the thumbnail. please do this more

You didn't show how to use first two mating nets and third one isn't very good
