The Vienna Gambit is my single favourite chess opening! It's so fun at the beginner-intermediate level, though it does stop working as you move up in ELO (opponents know to respond with going down the Vienna Game Main Line with d5). Congrats on the Chessnut Air! It really does change the way online chess FEELS to play and I've found it very enjoyable. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
@@chessnoob64 Yeah I think I'm more the OTB Player , I just have to pick up a piece and move it by hand. Online on a screen with mouse just isn't as enjoyable for me .... Thanks, I wish you Merry Christmas as well! 🎄
I really like your videos because in this case the classical music as background, on a Sunday morning and with chessnut it's a great combination. It should be as example because most of the time, we are interested to play and not in the best way as chess should be taken.
Thanks for your comment! Yes, you are completely right! The goal of playing chess isn't necessarily in making the "best" or most accurate moves. It is simply in the JOY of playing a game.
The most enjoyable chess video I've ever seen. Your production values are excellent, (love the choice of Bach) but beyond that, this video is important. It's important because it is inspiring. Who would not want to play a game after seeing this? Seem to be stuck at your current rating for months? Lost the last umpteen games? Feeling discouraged with chess. Watch this video!
I just love my Chessnut Air! I do the same thing but at night, lol. I crank some Bach or Beethoven and have at it. Chessnut has been an incredible addition to chess for me. Love your posts brother!
Thank you for your kind words! Please consider posting your games! I only started my channel a bit over a year ago and the early videos were really rough in comparison. I've had a great time learning how to create videos, and in doing so, it's really allowed me to better understand the chess in my games.
Please can you tell me if you only play against people who also play with chessnut? Or can you face someone playing on a computer? because moving your opponent's pieces is penalizing, in terms of time. Thank you very much! 🙏🏻
You play against any players on the online platform. Moving your opponents pieces is really not a significant disadvantage when playing reasonable time controls.
Any information available for the turntable?? I have the Chessnut Air and would like to put the turntable on my Christmas wish list. But I am unsure which one would work well, especially the correct diameter, or any other important details. An Amazon link would be much appreciated.
This is what I bought, but really, there are many similar chess piece boxes available on EBay www.ebay.com.au/itm/Dal-Rossi-95mm-Chess-Pieces-with-Wood-Storage-Box/194946002167
Can you use USB cable connected to chess board with other end to usb cell charger plugged into wall socket? Thereby eliminating drain on cell phone battery.
I'm not entirely sure what you mean? The board is connected to the phone wirelessly via Bluetooth and not by cable. So, the board doesn't drain the phone battery. The Chessnut Air has an inbuilt battery. However, yes, you can have the Chessnut Air connected to a USB-C wall charger while you are playing. However, the battery life on the board is enough that this generally won't be necessary to complete a game, even if you get a low battery warning.
That was awesome ! The game (GG), the atmosphere, and the presentation of the chessnut .. I definitively need one ! Here is a question .. is it possible to turn the board's sound off ?
The board doesn't have sounds with each move. The move sounds on thr video are from the app, and you can simply turn down the volume or turn off the sounds on the connected device (phone, tablet, or computer). Cheers.
Do you not find the leds on the chestnut are quite dim and hard to see when its bright outside, myself I loved the idea of playing outside but found it hard to see the leds. And had to look at my phone to see the moves.
I don't play outside in the open sun. If I play outside, it would be in the shade. As can be seen in this video, the LEDs are fine outdoors in the shade.
@@chessnoob64 I wonder if chestnut have thought of possibly switching the leds to blue which would work better in Bright conditions? Other thing maybe an led on the opposite side of the square as well as sometimes the pieces obscure the single led. Great board just a little niggles I’m sure version 2 will address, maybe chestnut can sell there branded lazy Susan that uses little pins that locate in the base of the chestnut.
Thanks for the comment! I used a set of 12-inch diameter "lazy susan" (rotating table) bearings. I actually made a video of this earlier on which you can check here! The video includes where to find these bearings on Amazon and eBay: ruclips.net/video/RNHyEkDAqq4/видео.html

Damn the Vienna Gambit is just so aggressive 😄 Definitely need to try it out. I'm expecting my Chessnut Air to be delivered the next days , so hyped 😁

How'd you like it?
The lazy susan at 0:44 was a nice touch. Link, please!🙂
Have a look at the video here: ruclips.net/video/RNHyEkDAqq4/видео.html There video description will include information.
@@chessnoob64, thanks! I've been thinking about getting the Air myself!

Thank you kindly!

Awesome! 🤩
Beautiful mate!
Thank you! Cheers!
I wanted to do something similar, but I've never had the courage to post my games. Your production level is incredibile

It was!
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
This video is art!
Thank you! ☺️
I like the way it's filmed.
Thanks for the comment! 👍
That’s the spirit!
Hi, great game ! I'm looking for a Chessnut Air now 🙂 You should be sponsored by them!
Ha ha. Thanks for the message and Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Beautifully shown!
I also have a Chessnut Air
Where can you get this metal ring to rotate
I made a video on using the lazy susan bearings here: ruclips.net/video/RNHyEkDAqq4/видео.html The video includes where to find it on Amazon and Ebay.
@@chessnoob64 thank you
Thank you for the video. Can you give us a link for the wooden box?

@@ambizytl Hard to say as I don't play in one long stretch of that length. If I had to guess, 6-8 hours? Maybe more.

Where did you find that "object" to rotate the board? Seems very useful

I don't know how I ended up here, but I would like to stay
☺️
Not Qf3. Must be Qh5 and mate in 3 moves or earlier.
Yes, realised this after the game. Cheers.
✨✨👌👌✨✨
Qh5 check is faster
Yes it is. 👍
Bro you missed Kn F7 to fork the Queen and Rook.
I didn't miss it. That would have been a mistake as it gives up a checkmate.
