"Celery." *chomp* "I HATE celery." This guy's turning into a comedian.

Try raw carrots, then. They’re nice and crunchy, without the nasty after taste of celery.
Always sad to see a game end because of time. I really would have liked to see how game 1 would have turned out with another 5 minutes.
Your voice is so smooth and calm that I fall asleep to your videos. And then I wake up and watch it to the end.
Hey Nelson, hope you’re feeling better! Love the channel and these videos. Kind of a weird/small detail but it’s nice how there aren’t really any cuts in the video, like when you left for a minute to take a walk and left the puzzle for us to think about. While the videos are still very engaging and informative, it makes it feel more like we’re all just hanging out rather than being fed some content, and that’s a pretty cool/unique atmosphere to be able to accomplish in a video format. Cheers!
I do thoroughly enjoy watching this speed run. Very informative
Only reason black got only 71% accuracy is because a3 was the best move almost the entire middlegame, but neither player saw or capitalised on it. Despite that, black played almost perfect. Very impressive.
That first game was intense, love watching you play aggressive positions down material
0:12 Game #1 24:46 White to play and win. 45:57 Game #2 53:50 Game #3 3:58 Celery is also good diet food. It takes more energy to chew and digest than you get out of it. 10:12 What about ... Bh5 ? 12:50 Now, ... Bh5 doesn't work any more. 16:52 Finally! Only about ten moves too late ... 20:45 Wow. Nelson was outplayed ... 21:49 That ... Bh5 was on the board for a long time. 22:55 Instead of Qa1-b1, Nelson missed a fork! 33:52 Don't take the knight! The ax murderer is in the barn! (Kxa8 Kc7, and black shuttles between c7 and c8, draw, because the knight is on the wrong color) 37:38 Nd5, Zugzwang! I don't like this format for presenting problems. Get back to the games! 46:39 Nice development, Nelson! 8-) 46:47 Nelson: Mouse slips ... d6. Also Nelson: wins the game. [Stockfish later says this is a good move.]

(@34:56) - answer: nope! The white knight needs to be on e7 with the black king on c7 AND black to move. Black’s only viable strategy here is to move the king between c7 and c8, reversing color each time. The white knight, which always changes (square) color every move, cannot - therefore - get to e7 with the black king on c7; it’ll always be on c8 where it’ll be in check after the knight makes it to e7. White is in zugzwang here (of a sort.) If white had one extra piece or pawn, he could move it (instead of the knight); then black would be in zugzwang instead, as the king would NOT be in check, but could not move to c8. Net result: black would have to move the king, allowing white’s king to move to b7, getting out of the way of his a-pawn for the win for white. This position is a draw.
Wow, that's the most powerful gambit I've ever seen. It's like a morra on the other side but you get to castle into an open file is immediately bearing down into the attack. It's a pretty unrelenting attack of serious problems for them to solve. That guy defended well.

There are a bunch of similar gambits and none of them are really that great. These positions are double edged swords and you have to be just as precise while attacking as opponent has to while defending. Check out Danish gambit(if you haven't already), it also leads to somewhat similar positions.
The first opponent played like you! Spent a lot of time calculating. Great game. Re the mouse slip, I never move the piece now because of that. Always click on the piece and click on where they are supposed to go.
Thanks for the vids! On the final game: At 57:00 you do a quick calculation. If I am seeing this correctly, this is a fairly interesting spot to review for how it alters both material and position/future. (If you ever make a compilation of tricky spots) The follow up detail at 1:03:15 for the other key calculation was great. I have made mistakes like that. Thanks again for the sharp and smart
If you don't like chewing on celery, get a cheap juicer...run a few stalks through it and drink it down in a few seconds. Add a couple carrots to make it sweet and cover the celery taste.
I'm 1600 too so I'm glad Nelson finally gets to play the people I'm playing. I'll take notes to improve!
That first game was legend

I love this Channel, Nelson. It has improved my game significantly and it has translated to me winning games that I never thought that I could.That said, I have beaten high-rated players in the tournaments. Get well soon and appreciate your time and effort to make these videos. *
Instead of knight g5 check at 6:30, c3 knight to e4 (blocks our queen vision to our knight and threatening their queen), if queen takes knight, knight to g5 is a queen fork, if queen takes pawn just attack while queen is away s
Imagine being the one guy that beats him and then coming across this video and feeling like you could become a top player
First time watching and riveted. Where do I best start to learn?
53:38 why did the rook take the knight when it never happened in game????
You’re the best, Nelson!
Glad you're back 🍀
Hey Nelson. Thanks for still making content while you're going through this. I hate celery too. Here's a trick to make it wayyyy more palatable. With the hump facing you, dig your fingernail into the celery stalk and pull the end all the way down and get rid of all those strings and throw them away. Then dip them mothers in some peanut butter... if you can have that, i know nothing about gout. Hang in there.
Thank so much master!
9:30 Nelson, I think Rd8 is interesting or good move, Qxd8 Qe6+ is mate, if black play Qxe2 Nxe2 White Rook is 8-line.

Was not there live but when solving that endgame. I pretty much saw every winning move (before the move was mentioned, as I paused to solve the puzzle before resuming). At 43:05 I knew Kc6 was winning because it puts Black in Zugzwang, but I found it a little funny that many didn't choose that move, only because Nelson purposely mentioned it as the last move to not make it obvious, and he did trick a lot of people. Anways, was a fun puzzle. Was not difficult, but a fun technical one as White can go wrong when Black plays the best line.
Put some peanut butter on that celery. You might actually like celery then.
Nelson you play as if there was no time pressure. You always ask yourself, if there is a winning move, could there be a better move? What you taught me is to develop temperament and stay calm. Then I don't blunder so often! Both you and Anna Cramling have taught me, when there is no good attack available, to build a solid position and wait for the other player to blunder.
I can induce gout easily by eating way too much sugar. Aside from celery, perhaps cutting as much sugar from your diet as you are comfortable with will be beneficial.
you don't added videos from 1375 to actual 1600 to speedrun playlist on your youtube channnel to have all videos in one playlist.

You're just about my rapid rating now, I lowkey want to stream snipe you. I hope I get the chance!
You don't look very happy about eating that celery...is there any way you can make it taste any better for yourself within dietary guidelines? Also Do you not accept friend requests on your speed run account?
Great idea to do the puzzle during the break--that was fun. But the puzzle took so long that you almost needed another break after the puzzle?!
Any chance we could get some d4 games for the d4 boys like myself. Queens Gambit Catalan London Stonewall anything
I saw black's bishop to H5 move! He would have captured your rook. Dunno after that...
Did u ever played brilliant move
Couldn't you work the knight to b6 citing off c8? Then the black king would either have to take the knight or let white out?

Oh, no. You can't. Had the tempo wrong in my head. White would need to move and can't cut off the c8 square at that point.

you gotta put peanut butter on the celery.. its pretty good

Yesss
Game 2 white was lost when not in the comfort of the London.
Whether I spend excessive time on an only legal move it’s because I eat while playing and probably have a mouthful of food haha

Don't take the knight
13:30 why not first take the rook? 🤔
@Deadeye1967

Because that would be a rook for a rook, evens , 5 points each, whereas if he grabs the knight (up 3 points) then loses the rook (down 2 points) then grabs the rook (up 3 points). So he ends up a Knight up as opposed your way rook for a rook. These type situations come up quite often, if a piece is going to die, take something with you
Good game
1645 😂
Why don't you try playing 15|10 format
First game seemed a bit fishy 🤔🤔🤔
These players that play well with no concern for time management and then lose on time are always quite suspicious. Most people manage the clock more human (unless ur strat is to win before u get too low on time…) suspicious but never good to assume anything
As a Caro player I need to study game 1 from blacks perspective 💯
Take the knight

Love these awesome tutorials. But what if the 12 second only legal move was another KZreadr explaining what’s going on to their subs? Just sayin. Cooking rice and an e-mail from a chess professor , really guys? Come on. Others could say the same thing on this side as well. Again, just my opinion. Thank you for all your time and knowledge Nelson!
