20:37 the opponent has 8 minutes on the clock and blunders his queen in 3 seconds. It always blows my mind how fast some of these people try to play...

nelson: i don't really like to play these boring openings, but it will get interesting later (literally 3 moves later): wow, this is a wild position

People who complain that the four knights game is “boring” are either total beginners who get lost in the initial symmetry and don’t know any better or are the same clowns who hang their queen in 3 seconds with 8 minutes still on the clock. I don’t play it as white but when I see it as black I don’t mind at all. The symmetry doesn’t last, just like in this game, and there’s several different lines the game can follow into the middlegame and beyond, which is more than I can say for the London.

49:00 if you know you’re moving the knight, just do it and maybe you don’t have to calculate the whole second line, save the time

Is it only me who thought the 99% game was gonna be the best and then... boom that wild last game. Such a beauty! Thank you, Nelson, take care, man.

Yeah that last one was straight out of Paul Morphy's playbook

I like your rating climb videos. Its really relaxing and you learn something on top

With all this breaks i drink to much coffee.

Great adjustment Nelson. I imagine it's been hard to keep your form up while playing down. Good luck with your health!

Hey Nelson, any tips to find combos better or perhaps do you have a course on this?

Usually, what I do is use my intuition to come up with different moves, and if I come up with more than one good move, that's when I start calculating. Of course, I'm always calculating to avoid blunders, but I only spend time to think when I have options.

I'm glad you are getting better Nelson. good video as always.

In top form, Nelson. Exciting play!

36:17 that B pawn whooped some serious ass that game

27:53 You can also play Bxc3 first and then bxc6

Awesome to see ya! Prayin' for a speedy recovery buddy. Let's roll!

Hey nelson, loving the series still, would be intrested in seeing you play some incrament chess???

I hope Peter-Patzer becomes a chessbot

Enjoyed your play. Get well soon.

Wish You a speedy recovery and a good health and a sweet life, and once again, thanks for Your efforts making chessplayers of NOOBs, You are the very best ressource on KZread for newbies, no-one above or beside You....

Could you please play a King,s Indian defense with king side attack. These e4 e5 feels boring

9:57 Nelson, good idea is also play Rb3+ and then Nb4 attack Ra2

Nelson, can you play some times first move the b3 or g3 (b6 or g6)

Hope you are doing well my chess bro!

Next one has to be nelson lopez play the rue lopez against nelson bot

7:11 Nelson, I think Rd8 is interesting idea. Next move is Rxd4 If white play Ke3 then you play (Stockfish say Nh6)

The science of when exactly it is a good idea to 'go with your gut' is called heuristics and it has been studied extensively by Daniel Kahnemann. It's interesting to read about too because Dr. Kahnemann is a great author and pretty hilarious for a scientist.

It was a very good Gout Deffence game! ☺️🙃

Way too many people watching the game with Stockfish open.

Anyone found the video that goes into explaining more around the strategy of that wild last game?

Do the 20 straight pawn moves offense! :) jk, thanks for this series!

I enjoy your videos,. I am a beginner, have been playing for less than year and have dropped from 660 to 408 in a week, so obviously I need all lot of help. I need some advice, would it be better for me to play 30 minute games or continue to play 15/10 minute games? I am on a fixed income so I can’t afford individual lessons. Please respond with your thoughts. Thank you. Jack

30 minutes. If you dropped to 408, you need as much time as possible to think through your moves

@zBrain0

I know you're probably looking for advice from Nelson, but just in case he doesn't get the time to reply: in my experience when you are just starting out you need the extra time to calculate. Once you start getting better with the longer time controls you will start to see things faster. If you really want to practice you could try some 24-hour games. They take a long time but it gives you the opportunity to really think about every single move. 30 minute is good if you have the time. When I was 700 rated I tried to play a lot of 10 minute games but I found I wasn't really getting that much better. Switching to longer time controls gave me the time to calculate. Then after a while you start to develop the intuition that Nelson was talking about at the beginning of the video.

Thanks

36:05 b3 is only move

Thx

Why didn't Peter push his pawn up to take blacks hanging nlknight and force queen move?

So was the one loss confirmed not a cheater?

42:00 - 52:00 does this opening/tactic have an official name?

Didn't see the thing by the 1. With all humility, I'm just curious. Do we know if he cheated or not?

The proof is not 100% conclusive. He probably just had a good lucky game.

Was Nelson ill? He looks different from how I remember him several months ago.

I believe on the very first video of this speed run when he announcers the account he said he is going to 2000. But it’s been several weeks maybe even months since that video happened so I might not be remembering exactly correct.

0:40 Game #1 13:48 Game #2 25:00 Game #3 42:04 Game #4 ------- 29:35 I've read that masters will simply not see bad moves, like intermediate players will not see illegal moves. 36:41 And after Black captures the rook and promotes the pawn to a queen, it's check, and he STILL gets the white bishop. 52:19 Maybe the Game Review totals up the blunders, etc. 53:02 The Bxf2+ is the Spanish Inquisition! 53:41 Nelson: "Look for mate." Stockfish: "It's mate in 12." 56:45 "It's easy to play logical moves and still mess it up." That's the problem I'm having with lichess's puzzles. And they only give you one chance to get the complete solution. 57:14 It's because ... Bb7+ allows ... Nf5+; ... Bf5+ doesn't. Yes! 57:55 ... Qxf3+. It loses the knight, but ... g6+ draws the king closer to Black's side. Yes! 59:20 ... g6+ Oops.

Oh my God move first then explain!!!!

Lol this is not a speedrun buddy

4:56 ...Qf5 threatening to double f-file Ps and leaving White with inferior Ps & down a piece, perhaps?
