@@angelofjustice9428I think you didn't understand the point. she literally had mate in one and her opponent knew, so instead of playing the only legal move or resigning he decided to wait for 5 minutes which can actually get you banned. anna has never done sth like that and would never do so your comment just doesn't make sense?¿?
@@Miesko1 i dont understand what you mean? this person, if I understood it right, said how ironic it was that anna said at the end of the video, that you should resign if you are losing (and ofc she meant losing in a sense like her opponent was, 1 mive before mate, and how it is not okay to stall the clock for five minutes) and that at the same time, when she was losing in the game, she didn't resign. but this person didn't understand the point. anna was never lost in the same way, she had still hope (an attack, and i mean she won the game in the end) and she never stalled the clock. so this person is stupid and your comment doesn't make sense to me.
Principle 1: No matter which color you play you always have the first move and it is e5! Principle 2: Always attack everything, preferably with your queen. Principle 3: Always hit clock hard with your hand to scare your opponent a little bit. If you are down on time there is slight chance you will damage the clock and time will have to be restarted. Principle 4: If you lose anyway, start to attack your opponent verbally. You still can finish at least your opponent even if the game is already over.
@@granite_planet Yes! And by winning in chess I'm also winning in life! Vote my comment up and I will challenge Anna, on lichess. Her principles vs mine and we once and for all will see which chess religion is the true one.

I'm at the very beginning of that game (2:49) and I have to say that I LOVE 1. d4. I'm a d4-player (most times Queen's gambit) and on my last birthday I got a present from my son: A t-shirt with "d4 > e4" on it. I love it!
This video is very instructional and your attack, patiently waiting and describing your thinking before attacking is a beautiful thing to see. I think this is the first video I watched of yours several months back. I decided to watch again. Back then, my chess play was more defensive hoping I'd survive the middle game with an advantage so I can win an endgame. Fast forward to now and I really like adding tactical play to my game. I won one game yesterday where I sacrificed my knight, to break up my opponent's pawns that were protecting his king. Then I followed up with my queen and both bishops to lead to a checkmate. You've taught me that executing a good attack is a beautiful thing! 🙂
15:45 "I got a bit lucky" Opponent blundered mate in 3 (trying to get a cheeky checkmate themselves with Qg2#) from having a -7.85 advantage according to stockfish. Yes, I set up the position to see the situation: the bishop sacrifice did not lead to a clear win. Fun to watch video, but not a good example for these principles 😆
Very instructional, how to build an effective attack is overlooked. Shows how it comes down to calculating in the end, but good prep can make up for weak calculating.
I love how this video is about "how to win by attacking", but anna was so much worse after she saced the bishop. The opponent simply went from -10 to, #3.
Anna you're the best at explaining chess in an intuitive way. Thank you for that. If I may request a video, could you cover knight forks? how to spot them or get used to spotting them?
it sounds cliche but it really is just pattern recognition haha play slow time controls to start and you literally have to stop between every move and see how a move impacted the other pieces on the board. Which pieces can now see squares that they couldn't, which pieces are now under attack or defended by new pieces. Which pieces are on the same color squares (pins, forks, skewers) and which pieces can now give checks or block them It's a slow process, nobody said chess was easy haha. But keep at it and you'll get better!
Knights move from dark squares to light squares and back to dark squares with every move. So, keep that in mind when you have valuable pieces on the same colored squares with a knight nearby. Hope that helps!
Your timing is always on point, cuz I began to study the QGD couple weeks ago, so really thank you Anna for your great lesson of the Marshall variation. I fully understand you, it also takes me too much time thinking about my moves, always tryna find the best one possible. See you in the next one
Her rule is don't sacrifice unless you must. She had to. It was so spicy. I am too aggressive of a player. I fall into that same trap. She was lucky that it worked out. I'm a much worse player, but aggressive style chess is fun. I hardly have time for anything but bullet lately, so I suppose bullet lends itself to aggressive chess too.
I was also trying to work out (in my head) how the light-square bishop sac was going to work, but I didn't get to the part about the queen sac as well. Very nice, Anna! And yes, in hindsight, just leaving your rook in the corner would have worked as well. Nice touch leaving your own king one move away from mate. That's Adolf Anderssen chess right there.
I just started playing chess about 1 month ago, at 46 years old. What and amazingly beautiful game. I’m addicted. While I am getting better at defense, I struggle extensively in having any sort of attack plan. Thank yiu for this video.
Just played this out on my chess board along with the video! I think My problem is not analyzing and just going for everything I can do. Great lesson! Thanks Anna!
@@Primitive_Codeyes. Re1 was a blunder.after that Rx f7 was also a blunder, here black can simply recapture the rook with a clear winning position.after Qx f7 .....be3+....kh1...qxd4. This is stockfish analysis.
@@prakash_clt I thought that line was leading to checkmate for white after ...Nf6+ Kh8 (Kh6 Qh5#), but then black has Bh6 if Qh5+. Pity the opponent didn't find a good line like yours with 7 minutes on the clock.
An outstanding video once again! I am completely hooked on you and your methods. I was looking for a course offered by you but then I realize that Every Video is a lesson. I track your moves in Chess Pro and create a PGN to review. It’s your thought process I’m trying to keep in mind, not trying to memorize the moves, when I play. How you could sacrifice the Bishop to expose the King and then let the Knight take your Rook, I don’t think that was intentional but it didn’t take your mind off of your plan. Quite Amazing and Very Fun to watch. As great as these videos are, Please do come out with a lesson plan.
As I replay this PGN, I see where you moved your Rook from a1 to e1 which you considered a mistake because Nxe1 but not critical to your plan when you took rxf7 but it was next when black moved Qd8 to Qd5 looks like the black blunder that allows you to create the Royal Fork with Kf6 whereas if after you take rxf7 white rxf7 it eliminates your key rook and completely changes the outcome.
That was a good video Anna. I did not know those principles and I have not been so successful with my attacks. I have wondered how other players could have sharp attacks on me, but I have often failed with my attacks or not tried. I have been better on defence, taking poisoned pawns and do counter attacks.
Ratings in online chess are crazy. It’s like they either have memorised the best line and have the response, or they will see the cheese but not the trap. The higher you go, the more book moves, but still… knight takes rook too hard to resist 😂 Well played, your joy is contagious 😄
You timed the sac perfectly!! Intuition is more than a feeling, the mind is capable of determining the best course of action, even on a subconscious level. There have been a number of studies and experiments that have shown this to be true! In the video you just did playing Nils, he said there are times he goes on the attack simply believing the checkmate must be there, even though he doesn't actually see it! Bottom line, awesome mate!!
I saw this in a program called "Through the wormhole with Morgan Freeman". It was produced by the Science channel. In the program they showed how during a military conflict, the officer was able to identify whether a fighter jet was friendly, or an enemy fighter. He was viewing radar, and although there was conflicting evidence, he was able to make the correct assessment. I believe it was as a result of the repetition of his training, which I think is what happens in chess as well. Players at your level have seen so many games and positions, and a lot of that info is retained by our brains, and that might be the basis of the ability to "intuit". Does this make sense?
IM FIRST! I was really excited when I seen the title of the video in my notification because if I could just win matches by consistently attacking from beginning to end I would forsure have more fun !
I love playing your Cow Opening in blitz chess and just watching my opponents clock ticking away ... it's almost unbeatable in blitz once this happens. Your first 10 moves are always so quick, no thinking, but your opponent must think. I was losing rating playing 10 minutes and longer .. thinking I was just getting so old and my brain was deteriorating. But in blitz, the Cow is KIng!
Great lesson, and wonderful checkmate - though you had me worried when you blundered the rook, and your opponent could have had you in checkmate Qxg2 if you hadn't forced the ending.
You know, I'm normally not about these strict chess rules. But it's okay to report annoying players for bad sportsmanship. In a tournament he would be disqualified.
I hate when they realise they are about to lose and refuse to play and refuse to resign in the hope you will get bored and quit or leave. I've had this done to me several times on 1 hour games but I will happily sit waiting there 50+ minutes if necessary If I know im onto a winner
great instructional video Anna! Might be nice to go over the post-game analysis in future. Sacrifice was super spicy but a bit unsound according to the engine. Position was completely lost up to the queen / forced mate blunder by your opponent
I just wanted to let you know, it is apparent that your American accent is getting stronger and more convincing each and every month. A year ago, I would have said that you had a vague yet unplaceable European accent. Now, very little of that European accent remains. The only big tells: you pronounce "chess" like "chass", and sometimes you say "I believe..." when "I think..." would be more appropriate. Anyways, good video, and I just thought I would let you know that I noticed your improvement.
I need to get more practice in. I used to be able to see so many moves ahead when I was a kid. Now, I can barely see past the next two or three moves. It's amazing to see someone thinking so far ahead. It also annoys me when people are about to lose so they play down the time hoping you'll just leave. I've actually asked people to play or quit before (politely).
Yes, I agree that 1.d4 can be a good option for the attacking player. In the Queen's Gambit I've had a fair amount of fun with various accepted and Slav lines where White goes for e4 and allows ...b5, and declined lines where White exchanges on d5 and castles long, and also with the Samisch King's Indian lines with an early f3 and queenside castling. I've also had a lot of fun with the Blackmar-Diemer with 2.e4 or 2.Nc3 and 3.e4, though I admit that it isn't as sound. Nice queen sac at the end!
I happened to use a very similar set of moves early on and had no idea how I did. I and ended up winning..the beauty of it was that it seemed like a bunch of moves were made without my input really and it ended up being the right ones, to the point when I finally saw the Mate move (which wasn't obvious to me at all at the time), I hesitated because I thought it can't be true! I assumed that the opponent must have seen the moves coming from mile away! It was hilarious and my friends, who were much better than me, got really pi**ed off and started yelling at me, and I cracked up laughing...! It took a while to win again....;-)
What I didn't like was after your principle is to develop pieces, you bring the bishop out and then run him back home, then change your mind and attack with the bishop. 3 moves on the bishop. I think the reason you opponent was delaying at the end was because you were one move from being checkmated.
You're just so enjoyable to watch and the way you teach is adorable. You teach by allowing people to enter your mind. I can tell you're a natural. You have the complete package. Looks , personally and intelligents. You're great! Thank you
Anna went from "Don't sacrifice unless you must" to "My heart just really wanted to do it".
😂😂😂
lmfao 🤣
It's like she hears both her father and mother in her head and is conflicted 😂
😂
lol fax
"If the tactics work out it feels great and if it doesnt work out you feel stupid" 😂 . great instructive video Anna .
I like how she waited a few seconds before checkmating to give her opponent one last bit of false hope that she left
Yeah but the opponent was really annoying. She sacrificed a queen but her time too. :(

Agreed! I also like some of the longer format like this :)
Ditto, usually Anna's style is kinda conservative, solid stuff , good to see her sacrificing a few for the well placed mate.
I hope so!
I love Anna's positive attitude and cheery demeanor. Win, lose or draw she seems to have absolute blast every time she plays chess.
Keep smiling so much, princess 😊
As a woman, I find this comment so cringe and creepy 😬
Been having tons of fun the past month playing chess after watching your videos, I am 400 points higher in ratings and having a blast! Thanks!!!!!!
I hate when you play online and you have a checkmate and your opponent turns out to be a scumbag and gives you "the waiting game".
I just -remove it and leave do something else lol
This was a great video - I loved seeing the discussion, even though it was anxiety-provoking watching the clock tick down!
The only relatable thing to me was the rook blunder 😅

You get forked, and learn to recognize it. I got forked alot, but after 10 or so times I started to recognise the pattern
Do puzzles for example in lichess. It helps a lot.
it sounds cliche but it really is just pattern recognition haha

on top of what everyone else said, you just have to train urself to look for them every time u see a knight near a king
Knights move from dark squares to light squares and back to dark squares with every move. So, keep that in mind when you have valuable pieces on the same colored squares with a knight nearby. Hope that helps!

Biggest takeaway is that it's all it takes for the opponent to blunder from a winning position to mate in 3 with one single move! (Qd5).
Her rule is don't sacrifice unless you must. She had to. It was so spicy. I am too aggressive of a player. I fall into that same trap. She was lucky that it worked out.

You're playing really well Anna. And d4 is a strong opening.
Sacrifice everything but the last two pieces for mate! Such a beautiful attacking game.

Even when Anna lost to the guy from “chess is fun,”she laughed it off. Great attitude.👌🏽
Yeah. Sitting and hoping to dupe your opponent by boring them to death is childlike behavior. And then to immediately request a rematch??!
Nice video Anna , bishop takes pawn is spicy .. but your style is very spicy
You're an excellent teacher!
You're just so enjoyable to watch and the way you teach is adorable. You teach by allowing people to enter your mind. I can tell you're a natural. You have the complete package. Looks , personally and intelligents. You're great! Thank you
