Very nice example of how cramped positions favor knights over bishops. 😁😁
You're at your best with this type of video. Thanks Nelson!
Damn even without being 2000 just looking at those two isolated doubled blockaded pawns is soooo digusting. Such an awesome example of positional domination.
The way the blockading knights protect each other is the best part, too; there's just nothing to do to kick the knights away, especially after he defends the d4 knight with his bishop.
That's what she said.
bro im not even 500
Great job in many ways: good just playing, excellent explanations, and fairly simple Termanology.
Your narrative style is fantastic, I could listen to you talk chess all day.
Thanks, Nelson. Good video. Can you make more videos about positional concepts
This video is a perfect example of why I hold your videos in such high regard. You taught me more in 11 or so minutes than many other channels could in 30.
Great video. I love the honesty about expecting the position to get better by removing the pawns. And then it didn’t but we all knew where you were going with that! Love your work, bro.
Very instructive. A couple of exchanges - and lo and behold, his pawns become my strongest pieces on the board. Amazing, my friend. Really cool. I appreciate a lot your games with such a cool reflections!
The famous Howard Staunton said that in an unskilfully developed game it is commonplace to see the victory won by the better player before the defeated player's rooks have ever moved.
If you take away one d-pawn and one f-pawn instead of both d-pawns, it's probably better for White.
Your site always has great instruction,but in 60yrs of playing I don't think
I've seen a blockade like that. But at my age who remembers.
And then he sacrifices THE KNIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The problem for white in the game was not only the bad pawn structure + horrible piece mobility but especially King safety! His f7 king might as well have been on d4 :)
That was why in the opening Makaciko playing cxd3 was so horrible. It prevented him from potentially castling queenside because the bishop is in the way and can't be developed because of the pawns blockading its paths.
2026?
Well done on another 10k sub's for a grand total of 160k all up so far. I remember when you were just starting out - what a journey!!!!
But at 7:29 can't white still just move the B2 pawn forward 1 and then move the bishop to B2 and that's then the gateway to getting that rook out, and it's not like you have very many pieces with which to mount an attack left yourself. Plus the knight currently on H3, can move back to the starting position G1 and then attack one of the knights on E2.
There is even a variation in the caro kan karpov variation, where you can sac a piece for a similar type of position... 1. e4 c6 2. d4 d5 3. Nc3 dxe4 4. Nxe4 Nd7 5. Ng5 h6 6. Ne6
Although... is that really a positional play, or just a way to check if black sees the mate threat? :-)
@@irrelevant_noob its a real position. I thought Tal played it quite often, but i dont recall. Anyways, top gms have played it a couple times too... So its a legit opening
@@GAMTT you've missed the point... The question was not whether the position "can" happen, but whether the reason behind it was really "positional goals" as your OP implied, or is it just a "poke" to check if the opponent is awake.
@@irrelevant_noob in some variations of this line it is a positional sacrafice: 1. e4 c6 2. d4 d5 3. Nc3 dxe4 4. Nxe4 Nd7 5. Ng5 Ngf6 6. Bd3 h6 7. Ne6 Qb6 8. Nf3 fxe6 9. Bg6+ Kd8 (in this line black is a piece up, but cant really develope his pieces. So its a "positional" goal)
Very underrated video! It really shows how important good pawn structures are and how bishops prefer open positions.
Takeaway:
Knights are good at closed positions.
Bishops are good at open positions.
whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat
I'm guessing as a counter to this white can just ignore the pawn and play c3 or let the pawn capture c2.
Nelson is spending too much time with the new baby and as a result, I’m having to rewatch old videos. 😂
Hey, new to the your channel and really enjoy your vids. On that position you checked with the engine...if you put queens on d1 and d8 white was slightly better off without the 2 pawns on the d file. It was like -6.4 versus -6.9 at around depth 23.
This might be a silly question, but I was wondering if there was some system/method or shortcut to keep track of exchanged material when calculating variations. Usually it's clear, but when there's a bunch of pawns, pieces and/or rooks involved in various captures I have to sometimes think about how much material for each side is being exchanged and I just feel like I'm wasting time. Do you just learn to remember eventually?
Could you be clearer with your question? Do you mean:
Is there a faster way to figure out if a complicated trade is worth it. ie. Sacrificing my pawn to get the enemy Knight but I lose a rook but I get the enemy queen but I lose another bishop oh my goodness there's too many things to count.
Or do you mean:
When is it good to trade pieces (ie. Queen for a queen)?
I'm not sure what you are asking. I was taught a pawn is worth 1 point, knights and bishops are worth 3, Rooks are worth 5, and Queens are worth 9.
And there are other rules of thumb. A bishop pair is often quite a bit stronger than a knight pair with an open board. And two minor pieces (bishops or knights) are usually preferred to a rook and a pawn.
But that all ignores positioning which as shown in this video can be essential.
@@byeguyssry I'm asking about strictly the mechanical process of keeping track...not whether the decision is good or not. Basically, being able to keep track of the 1s, 3s, 5s, and 9s that are being exchanged at each point of the calculation.
It sounds silly but I've seen titled players in classical games go for a suboptimal line because they miscalculate exactly what is being exchanged in a variation...and I was just wondering if there was any kind of system beyond just, "Keep track of it in your head".
@@theprogressivemichigander6588 I'm asking how to mentally keep track of exactly what is being exchanged at each stage of the calculation, not whether the trade is good or bad.
What about those streams where you analyse 1200s games when you gonna continue
07:30 *Yeah* - Nelson the *Anaconda* Lopez ;-)
09:49 That's a no-brainer: according to Nimzowitsch you *have* to move your rook on the 2nd rank.
10:32 Damn it - screwed that one..
Want more examples from your games. I think you are gonna make more videos.
Disliked because of big red arrow in the thumbnail
This game would be nice if it wasn't blitz
Sun tsu says rather than destroy the enemy army,have them join you.
U can do knight to D4 before taking with bishop
Wow awesome win. Congrats!
Good Inspiration for my chess :)
*laugh in stacking 3 pawns and still winning game*
Hello, very useful video, it would be interesting to see how stockfish responds to you in this position.
I though the ratings were dates
Useful stuff, thanks Nelson!
Amazing game! Learned a lot.
I had a game I played recently that I'd like to share. Perhaps you could use it as a training exercise or something. I had the black pieces:
e4 Nf6
Nf3 e5
Nc3 Bc5
Nxe5 O-O
Bc4 d5
Bxd5 Re8
Nc4 Bg4
f3 Nxd5
Nxd5 Qh4+
g3 Rxe4+
Nce3 Qg5
fxg4 Bxe3
dxe3 Nc6
O-O Rae8
b3 Nb4
Nxb4 Rxe3
h4 Rxg3+
Kh2 Qxh4#
Very instructive
Thank you.
At 0:27 you can fianchetto the bishops and develop you knights and you can always activate your rooks by moving the rook pawns up and getting the rooks out that way and same for your queen
Getting the Rooks the way you're saying is not a good idea since it takes 3 moves to activate them and even if you manage to succesfuly activate your Rooks they will simply be a target and you have to move them again and again. You also can't Castle if you move your Rooks so it's a better idea to develop all the other pieces first, Castle and move your Rooks to the middle of the board. It's the the same with your Queen. She will be a target if you move her out to early so that's why they say the Queen and the Rooks are endgame pieces. They have more utility and that's why they're worth more and you don't wanna lose them. This also makes you move them multiple time in the opening and waste moves. That's why you shouldn't move your Queen and Rooks early.
Pov have two extra pawn but look like down 3 pieces
Cool
That Video Just Made me win my Last 3wins haha
Is there going to be a new Chess Quiz one day?
lol. I don't like what white has done.
Great content; thank you for sharing.
So, what the mistake the opponent did? Wrong first two debut moves?
Yeah the reason was his opening
Sort of. The biggest mistake was cxd3 early on; not only did it create troublesome doubled pawns on the d-file and delayed the development of the dark squared bishop, it severely hampered the possibility of castling queenside in order to make the king safer.
excellent lesson, thank you
Really enjoyed this one.
The queen has died!!!
Wow I didn't think this was true. Looked it up. Was surprised.
Wow super nice👌
That was wild 🙂
Second
Never Gonna Give u upp
Why u calling me
Bruh
First keed
Nice game
Help me
❤️❤️❤️
Can u try 6 rook vs 2 queen 1 knight and the king are in the edges
Matt again...Great example of how to cramp your opponent to gain the position...Thank you!!!♟❤
Glad you liked it!
Matt here again Teacher Nelson
The correct term in old Chess is called "a cramped game" many of my books talk about it so YA GOOD VID.❤♟
