This is great, but I think what made it hard for a noob like me is keeping track of what you were jumping/moving with and what was actually captured (in your hand). You moved quickly, which I think would be ok, but when you were holding pieces in your hand, I couldn't keep up with what was moving and what was actually being removed. I had to pause and rewind a few times. Great stuff otherwise!

There are also numerous early pitfalls in the Paxton Defense (9-13, 24-19, 10-14, 22-18, 5-9, etc.), and Ryan's Cross (11-15, 23-18, 12-16). Hope this helps, and good luck in your games!

At 1min32sec, you say that either jump from the opponent will result in the same outcome. However one jump will result in a 3 for 5 exchange to get king, where as the other jump option results in a 2 for 4 exchange to get King. ( is this correct or am I missing something)

@@azcheckers It's great to know that professional players have moved from shashki to checkers before, it does seem a lot easier than expected. The lack of flying kings is particularly challenging, since I love to use my kings to trap my opponents, a tactic that I call death lines. However, checkers kings can be deadly too, just in a different way. I have never played in that site playok, but if I join, I will let you know.

​@@Sheilawisz Yes, the endings are vastly different -- flying kings are incredibly powerful! Something I have discovered at least in 10x10 draughts is that game is more based on tactics and brute force visualization compared to English draughts. When I describe English draughts, I usually say it's 70% positional play, and 30% tactical play. Is that about the same for shashki as well? I'm very interested in learning your death lines tactics! I am also curious -- are you playing online on other sites or on any apps? I am always interested in hearing where people are playing. As of right now, I recommend both playok and flyordie as the best sites for over the board play, and itsyourturn and goldtoken for turn-based play.

@Sheilawisz

3 жыл бұрын

@@azcheckers From my experience, I can say that shashki is indeed more of a tactical game. The combination of backward capture and flying kings makes it a lot easier to pull a nasty shot, probably with a death line as a result, and doom your opponent way before any endgame can develop. It's a more destructive game, very merciless sometimes, or at least that's how I play. So, 70% tactics and 30% positional, perhaps. The great Tinsley sometimes played this other style called American pool checkers, which is almost identical to shashki, and he said that it lacked the endgame complexity of checkers. A death line is when a flying king is cutting a wide path through the board, so it forms a barrier that the opponent pieces, sometimes five or more, cannot break through. They can only advance towards destruction, while the others beyond the death line are often outnumbered and trapped too. Flying kings are powerful, but their long range also makes them more vulnerable than a checkers king. I sometimes play at lidraughts, not registered yet, but it's the site that I want to try first.

@azcheckers

3 жыл бұрын

​@@Sheilawisz Fascinating! I really appreciate your explanation and you paint a very clear and vivid picture of the game. I am imagining this death line in shashki as a single king along the single corner diagonal line, preventing any pieces on either side of the board from advancing. That begs another question -- how many kings does it take to win against the game against 1 king? I believe most circumstances, it takes 4 kings to defeat 1 king in 10x10. Is it the same in shashki? The backward jumping really does make it a more tactical game, and of course adding the flying kings contributes to the tactical elements as well. Destructive is a great word to use when describing the mayhem that can occur in the game! There really isn't as much mayhem in English checkers. I am sure there are some highly technical endings in shashki and in pool checkers, but I do agree with Tinsley. Some of the endings require hundreds of key and star moves to execute a win. And really, it's the end game that separates the great player from the world class player. I really appreciate your insight and I'm excited for you to go on this checkers journey! Please let me know how you like lidraughts!

All openings

Excellent tutorials, but please don't skip jumps. It took me a second to figure out what you did, so just imagine someone less experienced. Holding positions a couple seconds between each move or jump wouldn't hurt either.

It's fair criticism and I appreciate it. I do slow down in my recent videos. I will say repetition will help solidify these tactics into your memory, so multiple viewings is recommended!

I been trapped In the same opening for months I don't know what to do 😭

I'd be happy to help! If you can provide me with the number sequence for the trap you are falling into, I can navigate you to safety!

Thx

If you are a piece ahead in an open position, you should always win the game. Material advantage (usually) will win when a competent player is handling the pieces.

I think you should explain better what the pattern is for these traps. Memorizing every single move is not feasible, and we won't learn new traps. If we understand the pattern of why the traps work, we can use them every where, and it's less likely for us to fall for other traps

I agree -- I think repetition for tactical sequences helps with identifying patterns. After playing through these positions a number of times, you will start seeing "holes" and ways to spot potential weaknesses in your own games.

Who else watch this in slow motion? Especially in 4:07

Why game over at 0:48

at 5:22 how come u know who looses ?
