    the easiest way to transition from the middlegame to the endgame is to accidentally give away a couple of pawns (or pieces if you're feeling feisty), then resign for an easy 0-1

      Resignation is the LAST thing you should be thinking about. A draw is when you can’t win, and a resignation is just after you are 1000000% sure there is no way. Keep fighting, for the points and the rating.

      Well at least you recognized your blunder and next time it will not be a blunder. Keep at it, you will get there. It’s not an easy game to play, and understand. We ALL started at ELO 900, me at ELO 850. 🤪

      @@kgizzla I'm of a similar age to you (22) and also stated at around 300 about 2 years ago. Here's how long it took me to achieve various milestones:
      *500 - 2 weeks of instruction from, and gameplay against, my 800-rated brother
      *1000 - 1 month; at this point, I begin to play games by myself
      *1300 - 3 months; from now on, I begin to watch content creators such as Eric Rosen and Anna Rudolf
      *1500 - 6 months; I take a pretty lengthy break from chess at this point, which lasts a couple of months
      *1800 - 1 year including the break, or around 9 months excluding it; since I still watched chess content throughout the break, even though I didn't actively play, I'll include it from now on
      *2000 - 1 year 6 months
      *2100 - 1 year 7 months
      *2200 - 1 year 9 months; I hire a coach, but only take 3 lessons with him as I'm busy with assignments at university
      *2300 - 2 years 0 months.
      The above are my Rapid ratings. My Blitz progression is very weird due to the fact that 1) I didn't play Blitz consistently and 2) Blitz ratings start out being deflated but end up being inflated compared to Rapid past 2100. Either way, my current Blitz rating is also 2300 at the moment.

  • @TheDandonian
    @TheDandonian 2 года назад +2

    Thanks for this. I caught the other video a day or so ago but when you take in 15 points, you don't really remember 15. This helped reinforce that info. I watch a ton of chess videos and I'd say it's pretty rare to see people explain the decision to move to an end game in the way this one did, with the principles being used. It would be great to see you keep hitting that point home.

    About that forcing bishop trade, I wasn't thinking king about forcing it but rather just bring my king and if the enemy king ventures away from the protection of the b7 pawn then I can then do the bishop trade as he cannot move his bishop else he still loses his pawn. Is there a reason why this doesn't work?

    • @danielglidewell
      @danielglidewell 2 года назад

      In the given position black could play b6 which solves their problem, and they can move their king on the next move.

    at the point of the game where queen takes queen black has an opportunity to take whites queen with his black bishop if rook takes bishop rook takes rook leaving black with 2 rooks versus white rook and bishop and a 1 point advantage, doesn't 2 rooks beat rook and bishop most of the time.

    • @danielglidewell
      @danielglidewell 2 года назад

      If Bc5+ Ke8, Bd4 Ke7 defending the bishop, then you just play Bxf6+ and win the endgame a pawn up.

    Nice video, what’s also interesting however is that people tried to write “principle-based” chess engines, but that was not successful. Too many cases maybe, too many rules with exceptions, I suspect tactics win too. I’d really love to know more about this!!
