    In that last position it's cool that you get a bishop + knight checkmate in the opposite corner of the bishop, which is not normally possible. However, because of black's extra rook, it avoids stalemate the move before.

    That first puzzle there, is the essence of a chess puzzle. There are just the kings and a few pawns, and yet something beautiful arises out of them. That is one of the reasons why I love chess. Karpov was right: chess is an art. Thank you Nelson for showing us this and explaining it, I greatly appreciate it!

    Love the channel btw, it's a helpful and entertaining way to present chess. The full games are sometimes too much (like, who wants to watch an entire basketball game when a 20-sec highlight is all you need), and the puzzles (the ones with like 46 pawns vs 8 knights) are unnatural and not really chess. This is great because the situations are natural/plausible, and the solutions are still ludicrous and impressive.

  • @redranger8107
    @redranger8107 Год назад +2

    My craziest wins in Chess was when I gave up the rook a few times. Looked like a blunder each time; I sort of recall the board at a generic key points from 2007 think and 2023 now a good 16 years went by. Simply I could have saved my rook but let the knight go down to A1 to move a pawn forward twice while his Queen was somewhere not a threat. As the Knight would have moved back to where took the rook the pawns were in such a way by the time he noticed what was happening it was an unstoppable now prior stoppable 2nd queen situation for me as I won with 2 Queens. Was on my left side of the board as well. I forgot if I was White or Black. Just the basics I have not forgotten. He never should have took my rook it was worth the sacrifice. Nor have I been in that spot again; to the point me and him also did an hour long chess game with nothing taken ending in a draw as kind of learned it was not always that simple if it looked simple yet funny thing was I bluffed that draw I had nothing to comeback why don't give up; just our history made him 2nd guess when some games should this one was not the case which the human element of history changes allot of things lol.

    Chess Variant: Random Chess. Difficulty: Expert. How Game Works: Every 5 Moves It Randomised The Moves Of Any Piece. (For Example If It Randomised the pawn so it moves like a knight the other pieces don't get Randomised only the pawn.). And If King Gives Check Or CheckMate With That U Technically CheckMated With A King, So Try It Pls.

    The winning move on puzzle 2 could of also been bishop f5, because if he took the bishop with the rook, you could of moved your knight to put him in check with your rook, then he only could of blocked with his rook, then you would take his rook with your rook and won. Or if he would of moved his king to h6 after you put him in check with bishop f5, then you could move your knight to g4 to put him in checkmate

    in the first puzzle what happends if you convert the pawn into a queen forcing them to take it and making the king be one square more afar so that you can take the pawns?

    • @danielyuan9862
