    One of the trademarks of a Nelson Lopez game is that you clean up the center of the board to allow free movement of long-range pieces. But when I try to copy that, it allows free movement for my opponent's long-range pieces! To be a boss you have to be a boss.

    4:08 Rg8 is very strong here, since the bishop is attacked and if it moves, B×f3 leads to the pawn on g2 being attacked three times, as well as being pinned. After R×f3, R8×g2+ is completely winning

  • @Turboy65
    @Turboy65 4 месяца назад +9

    I know I'm a pretty low level chess player but my preferred strategy is not to go for the checkmate early, but for trying to eliminate ALL other opponent's pieces, leaving a lone king against whatever I've got left. I then rank up a few pawns to queen and checkmate at will.

    • @tanelkagan
      @tanelkagan 4 месяца назад +7

      This is my problem - my biggest issue is not blundering pieces, it's missing quicker checkmates or sometimes not being brave enough to go for them, instead wanting to mop up more pieces to make the position "safer".
      Of course this is natural because actually spotting multi-move combinations that actually *are* checkmate, and don't merely "look" like a checkmate but have a flaw or provide an escape, is a high level skill.
      I guess in the end it's like everything else, practice, practice, practice 😊

    • @davidjames149
      @davidjames149 4 месяца назад +2

      that's definitely a good strategy at beginner level when you only know ladder mate and a few other basic ones.
      I highly recommend playing checkmate puzzles - narrow the puzzles down to a single checkmate type (eg arabian mate, boden's mate or anastasia's mate) and practice just that one checkmate pattern over and over til you can solve say 20+ puzzles in a row of that particular checkmate. Then move onto the next one, and eventually you'll end up winning a lot of games quicker, in more exciting fashion, and the checkmates you get will be much more beautiful. I think it's a good way to learn the names of the checkmate patterns and not only how to perform them but set them up.

    • @shadeburst
      @shadeburst 4 месяца назад

      My favorite game was the engine telling me I made 2 mistakes and 3 blunders and I mated in 15. But keep on trying to make every trade a winning trade and keep on trying to get your pieces closer to the opposing king. Keep thinking Check, Check, Check! And your early checkmates will happen on their own.

    End of the 2nd game is pretty neat, I'd have never calculated that and made my life much harder by playing Rh8+ figuring the resulting rook ending has got to be winning with being up 2 connected passed pawns and them being unable to stop the rook from getting behind the A pawn. Of course even winning rook endings are a royal pain.

    3:40 What would I do?... I guess what I would do is move the bishop to G5. If you do the queen exchange + bishop as advertised on E2, I'd get a preferential bishop-for-rook return, and if you block the bishop (with pawn OR bishop) first, I could put the knight on D4 to open up all kinds of attacks in all directions.

    • @SparkSovereign
      @SparkSovereign 4 месяца назад +1

      Because if you don't, the rook swings to the back rank and it's mate in one or two (depending on which direction they ran). If you run to h1, after Rd1+ you're forced to block Rf1 and then Rf1x is mate because your king isn't defending the square. If you run to f1, Rd1 is mate immediately because your king is blocking where you rook would go to block.

    Hello chessplayers around the world. I´m just tryin´to establish a new type of chess
    called "Double-draw". The simple point of it is to eliminate blacks disadvantage of being
    a step behind all the time.
    The rules is as follows : White starts as usual with one draw then black makes two consecutive draws
    followed with two draws for white and so it continues throughout the game.
    You are only allowed to check on your SECOND draw and you have to use two DIFFERENT pieces
    for the double draw unless of course you´re only left with the king.
    I tried this just recently in a IRL game so I don´t really know if there are any illogicality
    that might occur due to the rules in more complicated positions.
    Please try with your friends and let me know what you think ; but you have to play IRL games
    as you can´t find this on internet. Yet!

      I am an average club player, so no titled player, however, I do like precision.
      There are three possible ways to deal with a check.
      1. Capture the checking piece, if possible.
      2. Block the check, if possible
      3. Move the king out of check, if possible.
      If none of these three are possible then it is checkmate.
      It is important to consider all three possibilities since missing one or more could be a blunder.
      1. and 3. are not possible in this position, however 2. is possible.
      It is impossible to stop checkmate, but it is possible to stop Rh8# as follows.
      1. ...a1Q+ 2. Kg2 Qa2 3. Rh8+ Qg8 stops the mate
      4. Rxg8#
      So, the comment is incorrect, Rh8# can be stopped with a non- checking move.
