The best tip I could tell from roughly 2000 blitz and rapid games is that when you feeling something bad about to happen just take your time. Dont rush or anything even if you lose the piece/s in cause. Think about everything you can do even if the clock is running so that way you remember the patterns and the position.
Also best tip from over 5000 games of chess it helps for me at least to ask yourself multiple times a game if you like your position and what you want to change. Than do exactly that
@@mehnamewaffles6050 i think thats the reason why i lose in 10 minutes games. I usually play on board without time against my friend or my father. So i actually want to train how to think faster
15:25 in the last situation you can also take the pawn if they block with them. Cause if you win the queen back you're still going to lose the bishop if pawn blocks, so you pull a Desperado(unless the bishop is defended by a knight or something)
@@davidkumarmahto8187 If you take the queen first, then they have to spend their move taking your bishop with their pawn, and you have the initiative, which you can use to develop your other bishop, giving you a substantial lead in development. If you take the pawn, they can recapture and develop with their knight, then you have to take the queen, giving them the initiative. You’re still slightly ahead in development because your rook is activated. I wouldn’t say it would be better for everyone to take development over the pawn here though. Some people are better with a development lead and some people are better with equal material. (There’s probably a “correct” play above 2000 or so though)
This is so cool, I've watched already >100 chess videos but this is the first time someone gives me ten examples and I remember ALL of them from actual games I've played. Really usefull!
I am proud to say for the first time I have hit 1300 in rapid and blitz, i was hard stuck around 1050 until I started down the chess instructors rabbit holes and chess vibes has been one of my favorite resources. Can’t thank you enough for getting me back into my favorite game!
I remember this happened to me after watching this video, literally my opponent thought he was smart, but i used ur tips and basically either traded or counter attacked, so useful tips underrated player.
At 13:33 it's also sometimes worth pushing the pawn to a3, blocking the king's path to the bishop (a3 pawn blocks the b2 square and the bishop blocks b1 and b3, essentially creating a small wall). Useful if, for example, the b3 pawn is protected. Not a permanent solution, but might buy you some time.
@@ThatWasAwful Yeah, thanks actually, I implied that but I should've explicitly mentioned that this is one of said positions where it wouldn't be worth pushing the pawn. It's a nice idea to keep in mind, since I've had several positions where it was the top engine move
Perfect timing. These sorts of things pop up so often in bullet. Really helpful as I’ve recently been getting the urge to put a pen up my nose and slam my head down on the table after strings of bullet losses 😂
This channel is straight up awesome. The tactics and principles are amazing but even more so the way that Nelson explains them is so easy to grasp and remember. Thanks again. I’m trying to get to 1500 in almost there
I'm actually pretty good at saving positions from panicky situations if an escape exists. The problem is that the panicky situations I constantly get myself into truly are unsalvageable. 😅
Great video Nelson. I really like stuff like this (concentrated chess wisdom, is how I'd describe it.) Make as many of these style vids and I'll be there to thumbs up everytime. (I know the algorithm tends to really like top 10 lists, but the list nature is unimportant to me.) Cheers!
These are so valuable. Thank you! Anything you can post about general chess principles. Maybe a volume 2 of that video. You’re helping me to fill gaps in my training.
Another thing to consider if you lose a rook to a knight fork, is - if it’s stuck afterwards - just leave it there! Make a developing move. Only take it if it tries to “break out of jail”. Think of this as another version of “maintaining the tension”. I’ve had many games where that knight was still stuck on a1/h1/a8/h8 at the end of the game. 😌
I mean this video is directed towards beginner players and it can be risky letting it sit there, all of the sudden your enemy has developed an escape plan which you can't do anything about and you just lost that rook for nothing.
I am waiting for the day when Nelson becomes an IM. I am now intending to join tournaments after 19 years of hiatus because of him. I know I cant get to any master level but still, the inspiration Nelson gave me gives me hope. Even to become the lowest rated Master is a lifetime accomplishment for me. Thank you for all your videos Nelson.
In situation #7 Black should give up his Knight with a check that forces white to double his pawns. He's going to lose the Knight either way, but giving it up this way gains him a small advantage in pawn position.
speaking from my own experience, if your level is at a point where you're getting your king and rook forked without seeing it and preparing for it, then a pawn position advantage won't matter much anyway.
@@ilmanti Usually I would agree, but in this situation white’s queenside pawns would be so bad that it wouldn’t be unreasonable to win two or even all three of them. This is more than a small structural weakness, this is three totally isolated pawns. I know it would be tough for me to hold on to all of them.
I found 3 out of these 10 optimal sollutions.. the other 7 would have stumped me. Wonderful video. I am looking forward to check out your channel in the next couple o' days.
Not always. You literally said under the condition that the queen isn't there, so unless the bishop isn't there either, this solution may not work. But that is a good solution to remember.
Great content Nelson! These are some cool tricks when your immediate response might be to just give up after losing material It's easy to give up when you can't see the way out!
I have gotten into the situation with the bishop and the a2 pawn so much lately that I figured that trick out on my own and automatically do it now haha. Definitely a good trick to cripple the enemy bishop
The examples you have selected are all ones I've seen in my games. You've picked some very good ones. Example #10, the last one, is one I encounter a lot playing the black side of the Danish Gambit. I accept all the pawns he offers and white then expects an aggressive attack. But it all rapidly fizzles out on with this line: 1.e4 e5, 2.d4 exd4, 3.c3 dxc3, 4.Bc4 cxb2, 5.Bxb2 White is usually thrilled and appears to have two active bishops looking down on black's kingside. But then black plays 5...d5! After 6.Bxd5 Nc6, white thinks he's tricky with 7.Bxf7+ Kxf7, 8.Qxd8. Then comes 8...Bxb4+ and now white's queen is lost and black usually ends up with a better position. I have played this variation countless times and usually end up having a very good game.
You make good content bro I’m sure you’ve caught me poking around in your streams from time to time but you inspire me to get back into videos and stuff. I really hope you read this and smile
i literally learned ALOT from this, ive made alot of blunders while playing cjess online and somehow some online people are kinda kind and told me to this and that, and someone told me to watch your videos, thank you! xx
Hey Nelson! Awesome video as always. Just before watching this, I managed to trade my forked rook+pawn for their knight and bishop just like you mentioned, so I was pretty excited to see that I found that solution. Unrelated, I have been searching for a way to transform 1. d4 into a sharp/aggressive game, and I've come across the Benko Gambit which derives from the Benoni Defense. Any plans to do a video on this?
In situation #7 you could move e5 and then threaten to fork the two rooks, and if the person doesn't notice you could make a fork, if not of course you'll still have position.
You're very straightforward, Not really informative but your explanation is much better than the other tutorial videos, They kept going sidetracked and will ask you a question they themselves cant even answer. Its just so annoying..
So far they're all pretty standard, 10:20 reminds me of something I sometimes encounter playing the Pirc: bishop and knight attacking the f pawn with no pawn to block the bishop. And the answer is exactly the same: trade the rook for the bishop and the knight. That 2 minor pieces advantage you have over them will generally hurt them a lot more than the loss of a mere rook will hurt you.
General takeway and a concept that helped me a lot get a better player: try trapping attacking pieces, even if you don't see how to immediatly capture them, if they can't move they aren't worth much, and always remember the danger levels. It doesn't matter if your opponent threatens to take a pawn if you can threaten to take a knight or something. And often you have a move that both provides a bigger danger and somewhat protects you. Maybe it helps you to get one out of two forked pieces to security and than, when the opponent responds to the danger you have your second move to now defend / retreat etc. the second piece.
Very common real life problems.. and very useful tips and solutions. Tricks that I never knew could be for these forks n traps. Thanks a lot bro. Gonna download it for archive.
Hi Nelson, your content is so amazing! One question: In the last situation is it not better to take the pawn with the bishop to check again? The Queen is still trapped and you get an extra pawn. If you take the queen with the rook immediately, pawn takes bishop and you do not get the chance to win a pawn. Am i correct or do i miss something? Again, great content! Keep up the good work! :-)
white probably will the bishop with the knight to gain development ahead of you since your light-squared bishop and knight still in back rank after you take the queen with rook
It’s where you push your pawn twice and then once and your opponent pushes their pawn twice and now there side by side en passant is legal but not on takes and it can only be on first move
Always try to play solidly and safely. Always look at what your opponent is threatening and foil their attempts. This is the best way to infuriate your opponent and make them blunder
first time i got into a small chessclub, i ended up in that similar situation as the first clip. i was thinking for a long time, and concluded that i should trade queens to save the rook. (as shown) at the time i was like maybe 11 or younger, and when i found the move everybody (all grown men) started clapping and cheering that i found it
You can still escape with the bishop with Kc3 axb3 cxb3 Bb1, and even worse for white, white loses a pawn which wouldn't have happened if white played bxa4
Thank you so much! I watched this video and then played a 98 accuracy game. Either I learned an awful lot or your videos are some sort of good luck charm. Thanks for making them!
2:03 move The king first, and it becomes a agitating pin assault tactic I believe the bishop is genuinely most strongest towards the corner of the board. Well defended and is weakest on the last two squares of either side.
At 13:00 White is actually just down a pawn and can´t make any progress after 1.b3 ( trapping the bishop) a5, 2.Kd2 a4, 3.Kc3 a3, 4.Ne2 c5, 5.Nc1 Bb1. But there is no need to overcomplicate things. Once the king arrives at c3 we can simply play axb and if cxb play Bb1
Situation #9 or the black bishop after killing that pawn, The middle moves the bishop could just move forward diagonally attacking the undefended pawn and as pawns don’t kill backwards it can either run or the king moves or their other stuff.
As a 1000 rated player, the situation #8 is the most helpful. It's a pretty good endgame tactic and I'm unfamiliar with it till now. I like it unlike other tips which are mostly in early game. (If you know your openings, you'll mostly know what to do with these other situations) Situation #10 might also benefit other players but for me, I respond differently against london system and never come across this kind of position. Still great thing to know just in case
Thank you for those tips. Especially for ways you might save the game if your opponent does the tactic on you. I already knew that 1 Bxf7+ Kxf7 2 Qxd8 loses Q and P for B, but hadn't thought of the in-betweener Bb4+ winning the wQ (provided that the bRh8 really does attack it) -- neat!

Don't take the bishop if it blocks because they can retake with the queen and you are lost. But taking the pawn is a clever addition to the video.

Block with pawn
Most valuable chess video I've ever seen, bravo!
At 13:00 White is actually just down a pawn and can´t make any progress after 1.b3 ( trapping the bishop) a5, 2.Kd2 a4, 3.Kc3 a3, 4.Ne2 c5, 5.Nc1 Bb1. But there is no need to overcomplicate things. Once the king arrives at c3 we can simply play axb and if cxb play Bb1
5:00 in this case it is a bad move
But if the f pawn has not moved yet
And black has developed his bishop
Otherwise he can deliver a checkmate

Thank you for those tips. Especially for ways you might save the game if your opponent does the tactic on you. I already knew that 1 Bxf7+ Kxf7 2 Qxd8 loses Q and P for B, but hadn't thought of the in-betweener Bb4+ winning the wQ (provided that the bRh8 really does attack it) -- neat!
