This series is beautiful. Your next series should be a 10 | 15 series & the reason I say that is because the way you elaborate/vocalize your thoughts is so easy for beginners. I started learning chess a few months ago, and it hasn’t been easy for me to understand how to win (the middle & end game) but you constantly deliver concepts that are building blocks to being a great chess player.
Actually I want to see a bullet ratings climb series Instamoves and premoves galore No commentary during games, just rapid fire moves and games. He can do a game review later (or edit it in for the video)
Wins/Losses/Draws/Swindles: 197/4/1/1! There's a lot here that's refreshing. Losing clearly affects you; you learn from it, but I don't feel alone when I lose, now that I see your reactions. It sucks that you're going through trials, but this series humanizes the game, which is important. Glad you're on an up slope. Life can be rough. There's good things ahead for you, and this planet is better for you
I'm so sorry to miss this Livestream because of my office hour. I expected Nelson to be kinda silence in 1800-2000 rating climb because conversation might lower his concentration. Congratulations for any new channel members!
42:20 Nelson Lopez: When someone does some crazy stuff like this don't panic and say you have to win right now Nelson Lopez 20 seconds later: I want to open the position and checkmate the king even if I have to sac a piece to do it
@@peterwang9116 Actually, ... Nxe5 is better (it protects the queen), and after Qxe5 Re8, White is in for a world of hurt. And after ... Nd4+; Kd3 Nd5+; Kc3 d5, the game goes on.
33:45 I think that is because the players at this range have a fairly good grasp on the basic concepts, but lack consistency. They usually have no real good opening knowledge (or only play one opening the entire time). I know them, because I am one. ;) It's also hella annoying when opponents do not resign in a clearly lost position. Letting your clock just run out should also be penalized somehow. It already annoys me in blitz, let alone rapid. If you're tilted, go tilt on your own.
I could never watch your stream live because I live in India and here it's early morning while u stream....I really enjoy watching you and learning diff tactics for chess. Thank You ❤️
At 10:03, I think you're lucky your opponent didn't play Be6!! The line I'm seeing is Be6, queen is trapped unless g4. Then, Bxg4 Qf1 Nf3+ Kf1 Nxe1 Kxe1 and White is down the exchange and pawn with a super open king. I have no idea if that game could be saved. But if anyone can, it would be Nelson.
3:43 you missed a tactic in the 1st game after Be6 you can go Qxb7, if Black moves anywhere with Knight so that rook is defended with queen, Variation 1: if Na6, you can do a zwischenzeug after Qc6+, if Bishop blocks, youre winning a piece by forking both knights, you can take either knight then maybe take the pawn with pawn takes pawn,, but i prefer taking the knight on e4 firstsince it's already advanced up the board, while the other is just useless, but if you take the Knight on a6, you still defend the bishop so you're winning a full piece. If Queen defends, then, just take the rook with check, then the knight on e4, there's no pawn fork, since you'll be a rook, a knight and a pawn up since knight is interfering the queen's Vision of the pawn, but after Qxd4, if black goes Nc5, you can just do a check on Qc6+ and continue on with the game. Variation 2: if Nc6, then, take and check, idk what to say more. Variation 3: If Nd7, then take the Knight on e4 since knight is interfering with the queen's Vision yet again, if black tries to defend with c6 getting ready to play d5, just move your queen or bishop to safety, variation 4: after Qb7, if Pawn to c6 to interfere with the queen's Vision of the knight, i guess just take the rook honestly you'd be up a rook, then continue developing after that, there's really no attack for black. Idk if there's anymore moves or variations I haven't seen i don't even know if any of this works ☠️
I think g4 saves the queen, but yeah that's still a horrible position - probably better to just use the rook to trade queens at that point (still down an exchange because you lose the rook for a bisshop)
Love your video's Nelson! I like it so much that we can see the whole games in real time instead of editing the video's. You are so relaxed, that is very pleasant to watch.
@@modemuffel9911Quick moving is definitely a skill, otherwise everyone would be rated 2000 bullet. Anyone can move quickly, but moving quickly and not blundering is a skill. He genuinely won whether you like it or not.
@@MinotaurvsCyclopsThere is a reason i uninstalled the game several times from my phone. It is annoying when your internet is slower, surely i can play faster than most of my opponents. I kinda feel his opponents pain, but whatever he/she doesn't lose any elo for this game
Hey Nelson! At this point the level in the games is just beyond me but I keep watching and enjoying the series, and maybe try to keep up and learn something new every now and then. Do you think you could please do something like the beginning of the series, where you had timestamps with the openings you were playing? I understand it's not immediate in these livestreams, but maybe we (your audience) could give a hand with it? I found it so useful to be able to go back and watch you play some specific openings I enjoy when you were playing lower rated opponents. Anyways sorry for the textwall, best wishes regarding your health and family! :)
When analysing the first game, i love how he was like "sometimes when you're in a good position, you oveethink too much and you messed up. That's what happened here. It's better to play instinctively. Anyway ! Hopefully we've learned something from that " 😅🤣
The penultimate game was awful but you know that. Q to f7 seemed so obvious. Easier to see looking down at the board. The lesson today is don’t play when you’re not fully alert.
For blood clots drink plenty of good spring water, eat plenty fruit acids and get some gentle exercise like walks etc. and avoid saturated fats and white sugar. Good luck
I would start thinking about making moves that have multiple purposes. You play very well but it sometimes seems like you're thinking too narrow - like making a move that honors only one objective or neglecting to make a good move because of uncertainty on how to counter the opponents next move - although those ideas are important sometimes. Idk. Just a thought and feedback. I'm lower rated than you but that's just what I noticed by observing.

Whatever you do guys, don't be like the second guy.
I stall all the time. If you boot up a 10 min game don't expect to sit for less time
@@winnershandbook1069loser energy
Why you being such a sore loser just resign

Yeah I saw this too, came to comment the same thing. neither player caught it. Would have been big trouble for white there.
How Kf1 after Qf1
@@7ssanket963thats why its even worse than that...
You are confused how Qf1 and Kf1 in the same sequence.
3:43 you missed a tactic in the 1st game after Be6
you can go Qxb7, if Black moves anywhere with Knight so that rook is defended with queen, Variation 1: if Na6, you can do a zwischenzeug after Qc6+, if Bishop blocks, youre winning a piece by forking both knights, you can take either knight then maybe take the pawn with pawn takes pawn,, but i prefer taking the knight on e4 firstsince it's already advanced up the board, while the other is just useless, but if you take the Knight on a6, you still defend the bishop so you're winning a full piece.

Variation 2: if Nc6, then, take and check, idk what to say more.
Variation 3: If Nd7, then take the Knight on e4 since knight is interfering with the queen's Vision yet again, if black tries to defend with c6 getting ready to play d5, just move your queen or bishop to safety,
variation 4: after Qb7, if Pawn to c6 to interfere with the queen's Vision of the knight, i guess just take the rook honestly you'd be up a rook, then continue developing after that, there's really no attack for black.
Idk if there's anymore moves or variations I haven't seen
i don't even know if any of this works ☠️
I think the series is beautiful because it is going to be hard progressively to explain yourself while playing higher rated players
ur so wholesome brother i love ur vids need more blokes like u in the world
Why would you assume someone is "wholesome" just because they play chess and make money doing it?
9:55 may be move nf4: double attack on bishop and knight, and no in-between move be6, because u can capture'em
@ 1:12:55 after he took pawn with rook, you move your rook to d5. Then queen to e7, checkmate!
58:00
Which is this Gambit could anyone tell please....
Ponziani gambit
@@Jlang-es9lcthat profile photo is sublime.
Another great lesson, Nelson. So entertaining and informative!
12:55 should he have taken with the bishop so he gets a rook?
Nelson, can't thank you enough man. Thanks for lending us your time.
Love your rating climb series. How do I get to be a member? What does it do for me?
At 1:23:25 instead of Re8+ Ng5, Kd5. Nf7 winning a rook.
So nice of your opponents to think of giving you time to stretch your legs when the game is over. That's just great fair play.
At 10:19 after Nelson played Bf4, I think rather than retreating the knight, black could have played Bd7, trapping white's queen..?
I think g4 saves the queen, but yeah that's still a horrible position - probably better to just use the rook to trade queens at that point (still down an exchange because you lose the rook for a bisshop)
@captbeertyah9694 After g4 can't black just play Bxg4 and white's queen is still trapped? Black still has the knight on e5.
@@pattondan The queen can run to g2 to escape because the pawn is no longer there.
@@captbeertyah9694 Ah yes!
Nelson, have you thought about playing 15 mins instead of 10. I see danya do it and he still gets a good audience with a long intention span.
Who is Danya?
At 35:45, Rf8 would have cut off the king and allowed you to get two queens... now that the knight was trapped.
Love your video's Nelson! I like it so much that we can see the whole games in real time instead of editing the video's. You are so relaxed, that is very pleasant to watch.
1:26:59 I see the move! So that's what that feels like.
About the first game, your opponent should have used his bishop to fork your king and rook instead of using his queen
The opponent’s queen was hanging, that’s why taking with queen is better
Nelson in Game one. Could you not have placed queen on d3 to pin the pawn to the queen?
As an experiment I decided to see if i play chess better when I'm drunk. As it turns out, I actually don't.
How do I watch live?
1:17:50 this is definitely a win! What a save! 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Nah it’s a swindle, he is right. He won on his quick move skill and because maybe his opponent doesn’t play this on PC. That’s not a chess skill win.
@@modemuffel9911 You can premove on mobile too. But yeah it does feel a little cheap.

To get that one victory on time is worse than losing. It speaks volumes about his character that he wasn't happy with that "win".
im like that too. im happy with a win based on my performance, not the time. i do feel relieved that i won on time, but not proud of that "win"
In your first game couldn’t you taken on D5 with your pawn since it was on the 5th rank
When analysing the first game, i love how he was like "sometimes when you're in a good position, you oveethink too much and you messed up. That's what happened here. It's better to play instinctively. Anyway ! Hopefully we've learned something from that " 😅🤣
Had a really good week and was able to get up to 1576 loved my last game would love to share it with you.
41:08. Your rating droped to 1200. Lots of wierd stuff happened in this session
You must be tired, how do you not see the white q move in combo with the bishop?
The penultimate game was awful but you know that. Q to f7 seemed so obvious. Easier to see looking down at the board. The lesson today is don’t play when you’re not fully alert.
The only reason you are “over-thinking” is because you’re elaborating 😂 we still love you broski
You are the best. Thanks from Greece
Anyone else get really triggered when Nelson reads the chat and answers a question even though his time is running? 😄
Please continue the fisherman series.
Can you play the Catalan sometime?
Would like to see that as well
It's almost impossible to play the catalan below 1900s
no he cant. He does not know any theory.
Can we get d4?
Nelson, if you were black in this game, would you play 3 ... Qe7, or do you prefer something else?
Having an increment gives you more time to talk through the game without getting trapped by runnng out of time.
For blood clots drink plenty of good spring water, eat plenty fruit acids and get some gentle exercise like walks etc. and avoid saturated fats and white sugar. Good luck
the horse sacrifice had no follow up check
If you stall you’re honorless. It hurts cause it’s true
What was wrong with b7 first with your Q? Grab the knight. See, I said take the knight.
I've played the same guy today, but he was 960 rating. maybe IIIIHour is having more accounts

Hey Nelson , why do u keep deleting my comments ?
I'm not, probably RUclips doing something automatically
yes, my comment was deleted too. I think its the yt autobot.
Im pretty sure in game 1:Qxb7 Nd7 Qxe5 and if d5 just Bxd5 as the knight blocks the queen's line of sight. Anyone tell me if Im wrong
