I love this format. It's so cool to see what each player thinks is happening. It's also eye opening to see that 1000-1500 rated players are pretty often seeing the same ideas you are, just a bit less accurately. Good show putting the recap on their channels and helping them grow.

Amazing! Thanks for the series! Please continue 👍

it'd be interesting if you did this type of video with someone who has a comparable rating to you. Two NM going head to head with a completely different thought process.

Nelson, after watching dozens of your videos you have made me a better chess player. Thank you.

Please make how a 1900 think because i am 1900 and i want to improve

Great format! More of this please :)

14:55 If black plays Nf6 you respond Qe2+ whatever he does to get out of check you can take the rook with Nh8 while getting your queen to safety.

Awesome video, love them mate.,

Can you do more rapid rating climb where you explain just like before. Adding more training data. Those videos were amazing. They helped alot and I'm watching them over and over again.

Lots of respect to @VoltzChess for putting himself out there. Intimidating enough to play with such a rating imbalance, even more so knowing there will be an audience. 🙌

I think he was nervous to play Nelson. You could tell he wasn’t thinking straight when he kept mentioning moving his queen to d7 around 16:40 😬

Qxe1# would have been rubbing salt in the wounds. Which would you have played? Did Nelson miss it?

At 45:51 , what happens if White puts his bishop on e2 now instead of kf3? I see that it threatens Black's queen and clears the way for castling queen side. Idk if there'll be time to do that castle though, or where black's queen goes.

Well, in the first game he played clearly below 1500 standards, it seems, but he was also disappointed of himself. But we all play poorly sometimes and have also crushed 1500-s like that once and a while when they have a really bad day. When they have good day, I have to fight hard to be able to win. If they have their good day at the same time as I have my bad day, they beat me.

if i played, i would have 2 goals. 1, castle into a well defended position and 2. trade queens

In that second game, Voltz's maniacal focus on saving the g2 pawn led to his losing piece after piece. Interesting to see how that tunnel vision can affect an entire game. I mean, the main indicator to me was this: HE NEVER CASTLED. When the guy with the lower ELO doesn't castle, doom is the only outcome.

Lol you are correct when I was watching this back after I realised that maybe I should’ve just given the pawn up for some counter play. I just didn’t want to give him anything because I’m the weaker player

Hello Nelson, @Chess Vibes How are u making the selection for the opponents in these videos and what can I do to feature as well. I am rated mid 1330.

With the difference in ELO, shouldn't Nelson's opponent get to play white and have more time than he does?

Dayum

don’t over complicate your moves for a simple pawn. Sometimes abandoning a pawn to get pieces out to a more active square is the way to go as nelson always says ”doninreally care about that pawn”.

It's a waste of time to analyze your moves during the game.. save that for after the game and focus on your next moves.

1569? Dude is getting wrecked, I can't watch anymore. I'm out at 17:41

I'm gonna be honest, earlier I thought, you were not worth your rating Nelson, but as I've watched more and more of you, I've seen you're actually very good chess player and your thoughts make so much sense. You're not trying to be the flashiest one, and I appreciate it. You've impressed me and you've proved me wrong
