If you are upset because your opponent uses a "garbage opening" (which you then proceed to lose against) it means you rely on memorization of opening theory rather than actual chess skill. This is why Chess960 ultimately isn't necessary and it will never replace standard chess. There's only so much a human mind can memorize, and if one relies on memory by assuming the opponent will only play the best moves, you can easily punish them by not playing the best move.

I'm around 1200 rated and blundered my queen one time, but I kept playing and it payed off, because my opponent blundered checkmate. It's never over until it's over, even if you blunder, you have to realize that if you make a blunder with your elo, your opponent with a similar elo could very well make a blunder of the same degree, especially while they might be overconfident because they're up in material.

Lmao nice description of your opponent

I play a garbage opening as black (Duras gambit) and I FINALLY had someone play it against me in a rated game aaand... I lost against my own terrible opening... we didn't chat or anything but it was kinda depressing...

I looked at the most critical line of the 4...Qh4 Scotch recently (a line also recommended in Jonathan Tait's A Disreputable Chess Opening Repertoire btw). It reminds me of some Englund Gambit lines (1.d4 e5) where Black brings the queen out early and White catches Black's king in the centre by playing Nd5 or Nb5 early on. But in many of those Englund Gambit lines, material is level, or Black has an extra pawn but the queen gets stranded on the queenside, and Stockfish usually assesses them as +2, whereas in this 4...Qh4 Scotch line Black has an extra pawn and centralised queen and is only +1. Lines like these that violate traditional opening principles but are hard to refute over the board can be very psychologically effective.

Hey Nelson, if you see this comment I thought I might offer a video suggestion. I saw a meme where the chessboard was turned sideways with the pieces on it. It was called "chess, but sideways." I thought it could be something fun and interesting to try out. The board was set up so that instead of the pieces being set up in their normal starting positions, all the pieces were set up on the a and b files for white and the g and h files for black. In other words, white's setup was rook on a8, knight on a7, bishop on a6, queen on a5, king on a4, bishop on a3, knight on a2, and rook on a1, and then the b file was full of pawns. Black then had the same kind of setup for the g and h files where their back file pieces were set up similarly, and then the g file was full of black's pawns. Pawns would be advanced by moving sideways across their respective ranks, and capturing diagonally one square as they do, but moving to a different rank as they do so instead of a different file. A white pawn promotes by reaching the h file, while a black pawn promotes by reaching the a file. Also, en passant could be done if a pawn reaches the e file for white or the d file for black and a pawn in an adjacent rank suddenly rushes forward two squares. The advanced pawn could then slide diagonally one square above or below that pawn to capture it. Most of the other rules were the same except for those kinds of adjustments to pawn move rules. Lastly, castling would be done by moving a king up or down two spaces instead of across two spaces, then moving the rook up or down over it (depending on which way a player chooses to castle).

10:15 no, I have not had a similar experience. I've never won a game against a 2100 player. yet.

In a regular slow chess tournament with a standard time for moves, I played the Goering gambit. I was around USCF rating of about 1200, he was around 1700. Near the end of the game, he liquidated the pieces too soon, and I was able to win by queening the a pawn. He stormed out ranting and raving under his breath.

Dude was like: "Hey you cant play that bad line. I didnt memorize it"

Great video as always I love your exposition. I've done thousands of puzzles but find games against real people stressful. Rapid rating 900, puzzle 2400. If I get past the midgame even with a piece down, I destroy opponents my level.

I was once he blunders his queen and he called me a Bum and then told me that he was still gonna win He lost

one time i traded queens which i think ruins the opponent’s entire plan so he said “why trade queen so stupid” and after a few moves he resigned

It happened to me too, I was called 'noob' and other things. I reported the user for verbal abuse and told him I did it. I won the game after that.

Everytime I play any other game i'm always just really upset, but when I play chess i'm just calm.

I only roast my opponents when they play literally the most basic moves and they think that it's illegal to not capture a piece whenever you have an opportunity. That always leads to the same position and they're wondering why I always win (after meeting the 1500th player in a row with the same boring line).

Hey I have a question. When white played Qh7, couldn't we play Rook on B file to B1? If he takes with either of the rooks it is a forced mate. He could only take the pawn on f5 with queen and we end up with a much better position.

Hello Nelson Id like to further my knowledge regarding the English and its theory but not sure which book to study about my favorite opening.

Sometimes I like to offer draw when I'm in a bad position and my opponent declines and somehow I win at the end.

Your opponent was hacked off because he should have won. I would have thought that for you guys at 2000+ a Wayward Queen should be easy enough to swat away and not get upset about it.

Never in my life have i seen someone trash talking in chess and its hilarious

Garbage Opening? Mate you chose the opening lol

"It was a rubbish opening ..." ..." Yeah, but I beat you with it"... Thats what we call "a sore loser"

It always happens to me, once one literally said "I'm going to use the rest of the time I have to insult you" when he was one move away from being checkmated lol

Once, I had a player that started insulting and I quit the game and reported him

"I didn't think opening is that important when I was young.." - Magnus asked about his openings as a young player

During a tournament game, I got angry at both myself and my opponent after losing a rook from ... Nc2+ (my king and rook on their original places). I had evidently done that a few times just before then, so I got mad at myself for falling into that yet again. Then I played probably the most aggressive chess I'd ever played up until then. (I picked away at defenseless pieces and gradually infiltrated his defenses.)

Of course, this happens all the time. Just ignore all messages during the game and never respond to anything.

7:19 black can play Qxa8 sometimes also

My friend and my other friend played against each other White was winning materials and position All black had was a queen and a knight which his rook was undeveloped too And white was checking the king continuously, didn't realized the checkmate in one and blundered queen taking a pawn and checkmated himself LOL

My proudest check is when someone said “you suck at the game” and then I pawn checkmate him few moves later

7:10 Could you have sacrificed the Queen with Qa1 here because if rook takes you have rook b1 which forces another rook trade followed by the pawn promotion with back rank mate? Edit: oh lol nvm he explains it

This is the reason I never, EVER accept chat requests. :)

When I was still 600 in bullet, I once lefonged an opponent. He told me, and I kid you not, "You play like a j**, burn like one." literally choked on my soup.

I was also insulted this very week. Played an Owen Defense, white blundered the e4 pawn in like 5 moves and I forced a queen trade to then be called a coward idiot who should learn how to play by my opponent. I tried to tease, but actually losy my cool, blundered the pawn back to some rookie tactic and got mated in an equal rook endgame. Reached one of my peak salt ratings. On a serious note, I think websites should be stricter towards cussing and harassment during games. Some strike system based on bot/human analysis on what's said. I actually am a bit oversensitive but feel like these situations can really make your day worse

I just had a game where I was flat out winning and won, playing a decent line, so the other player started insulting me (even throwing in racial slurs for an ethnicity I am not even a part of). Blocked and reported him. Its so sad when people act that way. While I do hate losing, i never insult the player (even if I have suspicions of foul play) - I just move on and report as necessary.

i feel like i am always in his shoes blundring winning positions all the time however maybe i never thought from my oponent side whenever they blunder

Bro accidentaly popped his winston ult

I'm a lower rated player, and while I'm learning as much as I can my favorite opening so far is the fool's mate opening, a continuation of the Barnes opening. Sure if someone sees it (I'm confident I won't be allowed to play it at higher levels) it's lost, but if they don't it's weird enough that chess is no longer about memorizing lines, but becomes about seeing tactics which is more fun. Got a pawn checkmate first time I played it too, wish it were actually good though.

3:56 thats what Hans said

Don't you just love it when your opponent calls you garbage and they lose to you? Kind of like them kicking themselves lol.

Although to be fair, it was a garbage opening. And his opponent instantly knew the best moves.

Okay I have to admit this and I don’t know why I do this. Everytime I lose a game of chess, even though I made the mistakes, I still get very upset at my opponent. Sometimes if they play a queen move on the 2nd move and end up winning the game later, in my mind I feel like I lost to a garbage player. I feel like I should be banned for the amount of times I’ve got into the most pointless arguments with my opponents. I guess mentally I hate losing cause I know I lost to someone smarter than me

If he wrote garbage player to me after I won, i would have happily responded "but still good enough to beat you,...checkmate!

"Garbage opening" If garbage doesn't get punished, it's not garbage lol. Wayward queen Scholar's mate is a bad opening above 600, but that doesn't make people bad for trying it at low level if it it actually works. Stockfish may not like this opening either, but apparently it works at 2100.

I play hippo defense it is just getting everyone out of prep so it is not bad

I usually play worse against bad opening lines because I dont know what to do

The guy had such knowledge that he could even use the botez gambit when it was neccessary 😆

and i thought my brother found garbage opening f3

that happend a player tried to offer draw when he is in a completely bad postion (unescapable) and he started talking rubbish

All openings/defences are playable. The proof is in Stockfish's ability to play anything. Sure, its superior technique wins the day; but the great Capablanca was accused of this! You can't win!! Well, of course you can. Anderssen played his own opening 1.a3 against Morphy. Result? A win & a draw for the man from Breslau. On the opposite end of the scale, I would quote Alekhine in the New York 1924 tournament book: "he (Capablanca) took the liberty of playing this joke opening (1....g6 in reply to 1.e4). One should never commit oneself to a certain position before one's opponent has made his intentions clear". And this from a Hypermodern! To sum up, like an old fella said to me when I was fourteen "I like to take them out the book". Apparently, so does Stockfish. Let's do a Stockfish, & completely ignore all bad mannered individuals.

One time my opponent was toxic, then asked to draw. I refused. Ten moves later, he resigned.

was hoping you opened with the bongcloud given how angry the guy got

1279 elo - I was 7 points ahead, by a rook and 2 pawns. He left the backrank open, by moving his rook to e8, also a blunder, whilst I was castled to kingside, and my rook has open on the rightside, so I move to a1, and it was a backrank checkmate. Got chatted the same stuff 😂😂😂

I'm 1400-1500 and for some reason when I play the Vienna as Black I can't stop getting trapped in the Meitner-Mieses gambit line / trap. It's bad, as in +1-ish and many Queen-trapping threats for White. However I've got a decent 50-50 record with it (while the overall Lichess record is 64% win for White), and I think it's mostly due to the fact that I got decently good at defending it (as in, for a player of around my level) and many opponents get frustrated that they can't convert the advantage into a win and end up blundering at some point.

Your best videos are game analysis videos like this.

The problem with this kind of opening is that it is very tricky for the opponent to defend the first lines if they don`t know it well. This is what bothers people. You have to rely on very specific moves to survive the first few developments of the game

Played atomic chess, guy lost so easily and called me ‘a monkey’ 💀

I even remembered the Magnus weirdest ridiculous opening and didn't lose XD, I also get the idea from "Grandmaster doing tricky openings" and I like it. Love the allure teaching quintessential benevolent skills❤

Wait i think i found a brilliant move at 7:07 The white queen went to h3 which (based on what i found is a forced mate) Qh3 Qxa1 Rxa1 Rb1 Rxb1 and pawn takes b1 promoting into a queen then backrank checkmate!!

Your opponent must've been talking about himself and his opening repertoire.

Qh4 was the first opening my coach taught me. I go insulted so much yet i went up 200 points

Noooo Nelson plays qh4 in the scotch this was what I play and now more people know it

Yah, one question thou why our opponents always send a request to draw when they are losing

I’m bad at openings I always start off losing but I’m okay at middle game and pretty good at endgame so I usually get a comeback game

when someone plays H4 and still wins:

lol my opponent wanted to rematch me till i figured out he was using stock fish on the rematch

Yeah, I once was up a queen, and I still somehow lost.

I'm 800 elo so correct me if I'm wrong but isn't queen takes rook on a1 at 7:07 lead to checkmate. Again maybe there's something I'm missing plz sb clarify. Oh nvm he did clarify

That is how life goes. If you lose, people make fun of you and if you win, it is definitely your fault!
