This has got to be a world record for the most amount of missed mates in one in one game. At first it looked like white was the best 600 I’ve ever seen in my life, but I was very mistaken
Nope. As a begginer is very common to try to memorize several good lines from a specific opening. I usually play the Caro Kahn as black with 90% or more until move 15. But still am under 900 elo.
I wouldn't say that you shouldn't castle as black against the London (unless there's a greek gift) but you should be cautious especially with something like h4, h5. However its definitely defendable at a high level. Levy talked about d6, e5 but i thought more direct was Qg6 (prophylactically) defending anything with h7 or h6. As long as you realise there is danger a few moved in advanced its good. Obviously thats not expected at 600 level.
@@TheArizus Absolutely, you should castle, I just had so many games where black castled short and ran into rook+queen or bishop+queen battery mate 3 moves later
Damn, this game was wild as hell. At first I couldn't believe that White was 600 Elo because of how they played in the opening, and then I couldn't believe they were 600 Elo because of how they played in the late middlegame and early endgame for the opposite reason. It was like he used up all his mental energy through the opening and then just ran out of gas. My theory: I feel like the challenge of converting a winning position into a won game can sometimes come from failure to bounce back after a missed opportunity. White couldn't figure out how to finish things off and seal the deal, leading to them getting more frustrated and then perhaps beating themselves up for not being able to figure out the conversion. Then when they start slipping towards a losing position, they may start playing despair chess. This could be because of how hopeless they may feel about the game after having their position fall so much in quality. Or it could also be a collapse of their self-confidence about their own playing ability due to their failure to deliver a win from an overwhelming advantage. Once that happens and the hopelessness or frustration sets in, their thinking is completely emotionally compromised, their focus and ability to reason or calculate goes out the window, and they implode on themselves like the core of a dying star turning into a black hole.
this is literally me I get so lazy when I'm up a piece or have a positional advantage. my games look like this. with maybe a few less missed mates haha
I’m about 600.. I fluctuate between familiarity and good ideas and panic mode and overconfidence. Basically I can be decent on one move and also easily hang my queen on the next
I feel so identified with this comment i stopped studying after learning the fundamentals and I enjoy improving empirically rather than studying even though progress is slower.
dude as 300 elo whenever he paused to say like “what is the best move” i was able to pick them out. There’s no way in hell you can convince me that these players are double my elo.
@@bliizzardd That's the thing about a lot of people in these videos. Someone picks their starting rating as 1200, loses 90% of his games and ends up around 600. Starting from 200 some of those people would stay at that number for the rest of their lives.

800 here, couple days ago dude didn't know how to mate with two rooks so he promoted to queen, blundered her, promoted again, stalemated. I'm still not sure if he was trolling or legit had no idea about endgames.
@@mariuszpudzianowski8400 I had like 5 queens one game and accidentally stalemated. I have no regrets, it was quite funny actually that I tried to troll the opponent and ended up trolling myself 😂

One of the guys (rated something like 1100) plays impressive debuts. But he misses tons of opportunities in the middlegame, and he literally doesn't know how to checkmate with queen+king.

I see games like this every week. Maybe we should introduce eval bars & M numbers into OTB games. The good news is that these student players were probably unaware how close they came but both felt that they had had a damn good game. I sometimes wonder if we are teaching chess the right way and whether we shouldn't start at the end rather than the beginning? They were both managing their clock time well.

in my case it is precisely oppositely :D

This has got to be a world record for the most amount of missed mates in one in one game. At first it looked like white was the best 600 I’ve ever seen in my life, but I was very mistaken
Beginner preps like a GM for the opening but hasn’t learned about something crazy called the middlegame, and even wilder, THE ENDGAME!
Maybe they’re just reallly really bad at endgames
as a ~400 player, I have definitely had just as many if not more missed mates in a game more than once 😅
Maybe he use the engine, until he saw the wining position... white opening was really really good
You can be 1000 in the opening and 200 in ending and end up being an inconsistent 600
