Whatever I learn in these videos is thrown out of the window when I actually play my opponents. It is frustrating when they don't play the actual moves leading to the Italian game, scotch game, etc
Let us correct the mistake in the video. 3.Bc4 is called the Giuoco Piano or Italian Game. Bb5 institutes Ruy lopez.(aka Spanish) The "Italian Variation" in the Ruy Lopez occurs only in the Open variation 1. e4 e5 2. Nf3 Nc6 3. Bb5 a6 4. Ba4 Nf6 5. O-O Nxe4 6. d4 b5 7. Bb3 d5 8. dxe5 Be6 9. c3 Bc5
A few thoughts from a long time chess teacher of kids: 1) I would recommend to show fewer moves but mention the 3...a6 line, and the general motive for Bb5. 2) The italian 3. Bc4 is NOT the Ruy Lopez, it is a different opening. btw "fianchetto" is pronounced Fee-ahn KE to, the "ch" is pronounced as a hard K (italian for side-kick) Generally The three concepts control the center, develope the pieces and protect the king are well presented in the Ruy as white often castles soon. The speech is very clear and without an accent ( which would be VERY distracting when shown to a group of kids) This was well prepared and I bet there will be more good videos from the girl! Good job!
@@furrykef Being right isn't being pedantic. And in the context of a lesson, the teacher had better be right, so that the students will learn the right way. So it would've been better for her to use a "k" sound.
@@rosiefay7283 The "ch" pronunciation is well established in English. If you're teaching chess, not Italian, there's no problem with pronouncing it "ch".
Hey, sorry if i sound like an idiot. At 1:39 wouldn't it be better if black just attacks your Bishop with a Pawn? Why just leave it there when it can at least force it to retreat? Thanks in advance.
DJDavidShmosh your elo can't be above 800 based off that sentence lol white is forced to respond to this "weak" pawn move by either taking or dropping back. If a move limits your opponents move to 2 options and neither of them are great (I say neither are great because most good players prefer bishops over knights and dropping your bishop to a4 will lead to b5 and black will have to move the bishop again to the square that the knight wants to develop to. In the end the position is relatively equal, even though many people might actually prefer black since their pieces are much less cramped. This lady is rated 1250 so she is clueless and usually a6 or Nf6 are the strongest moves in this position but a6 is a little stronger as it either threatens to win the so called "bishop pair" or make the white bishop go to the square that the knight wants to develop to.
Three months after watching this video, I now thank you for helping chalk up at least two more wins per 10 games played. The Spanish variation really works! Thank you very much.
If Black plays a6, Bxa6 then bxa6 or dxa6 and Black has doubled pawns which can be targeted later in the game. Also, most GMs play c5 against e4 so yea.
My strategy is develop a good pawn defense while reaching the center of the board with usually my Knights and initially attack on the King side with my Queen but depending on my opponent how he plays could lead the King attack to the opponents Queen side
I would argue that a6 is the most common response to Bb5 rather than developing a knight or bishop. Even if it isn't the "better" move, its what most sub 1500 players will do every time.
Royce Davis sub 1500? It is the most common played move in grandmaster games buddy. You probably didn't know because you've never played someone over 1000 lol
I'm not trying to be so critical, but I feel this video is somewhat inaccurate. a6 after Bb5 is certainly more common than Nf6, however I will say that Nf6 is perfectly playable for black. Also, I'm pretty sure that one of the main secrets of the Ruy Lopez is that white is temporarily able to ignore the threat to e4 for a single tempo, by castling, even though in the Nf6 variation his threat to take on e4 may be slightly stronger. However, I will say that the overall plan by both sides are appropriate and the ideas are correct. Very good for beginners and even maybe intermediates. Thank you ChessNYC.
She misspoke. There is a difference between the Italian game (which is what she meant to say) and the Italian variation of the Ruy Lopez... www.365chess.com/eco/C82_Ruy_Lopez_open_Italian_variation
Tech Base black can take with the dpawn and after the knight takes the on e5 black can attack both the knight and the e4 pawn with his queen. They can't both be defended with one move, therefore black retains the pawn.
So it's a losing opening for black you say? because the queenside attack is not where the white's king is, but white's attack on kingside is also where black's king is located. So white's attack is actually more threatening than black's.
I have a problem... in ruy lopez. Spanish... usually my oppoent captures my nigh and i recapture with pawn he captures my centre pawn... this usually become bad for me
You didn't explain the Morphy Defense, Classical Defense, Old Steinitiz Defense, and Berlin Defense. You also, didn't explain what happens if White takes the knight on c6 with the bishop and then later takes the pawn on e5.
furrykef, okay, for one thing, the move d3 is an inaccuracy as white hopes to eventually play d4 in one move. A better way to defend the pawn on e4 is to short castle and then play Re1.
Im sorry but you are showing incorrect variations. Instead of c3 white has Bxc6 and then Nxe5 winning the pawn. Also, the most popular move after Bb5 is a6.
fianchetto is pronounced with a hard c and no h, not (fi an chetto), (fi an kett o) I don't know how to do the pronunciation clarification thing, but it's mispronounced😂
chess is an incredibly simple game. like everything in the world. people try to over complicate an incredibly simple thing to make themselves look special
LochVids That's why it's still being studied by scholars even after 1500 years, cus they want to look cool. And I'm guessing that the ranking skill of a Grandmaster which is only achieved by a handful of people was also complicating something simple.
Amer Baghdadi nah mate i mean people who are teaching the basics fail because of whatever reason. of course its complicated but it isnt as hard as people think.
Your explanation is good. However, the camera focus should always be on the board. We need to see the board constantly. Your face, you can show only in the beginning and at the end.
The only way to actually understand these openings are with hundreds (if not thousands) of games. I've played the ruy lopez at least 300 times and I'm still learning ideas. This 4 minute video isn't going to make you good at the Ruy Lopez. (it says basics)
Hi! Love your videos on chess. Please make the video about the Ruy Lopez in Italian variation! Please please please! And update me please if it's not much to ask. Or send a link? Pleeeeaaaase?
this is wrong ! Bc4 is called Italian opening ! and another this is that if black plays 4.. Nf6 then it's Berlin defense ! plz don't teach ppl wrong things!
Yes, the Italian Game, or properly, the Giuoco Piano, is an attack played by white's opening moves - characterized by the bishop moving to b5. There are then various black defences to white's Italian Game moves, such as the Berlin Defence. :-)
Hi I play in chess tornimest.Wen I play day do not control the center and day steal win.Can you make a vedio on How to not control the center an steal win plz.
Bishops are almost always better than knights. The only purpose of having the bishop there is for pressure and to pin it to the King or Queen. Generally only inexperienced players would take that knight, the only reason to would be to remove the defender of a square, which will likely turn out to be next to meaningless.
DOubled pawns are a disadvantage when it comes to the endgame as they can't protect each other and Bishops are not always better than Knights. Generally, Knights are better at the Opening and the Middle Game through the Bishop will be more useful in the endgame and Bishop pares are kinda OP in the endgame. Trading a Knight for a Bishop is a good idea at the start of the game but in the Endgame, it will put you at a disadvantage. You Noobs

Same bro
Sea Wolf best move? Make your own game.
Sea Wolf yeah, it really is kinda frustrating. try to do your game based on the 3 main principles of the begining of the game.
alright peeps thanks
what is your rating? (when low rated don't learn theory just play natural moves and learn from them)
Let us correct the mistake in the video. 3.Bc4 is called the Giuoco Piano or Italian Game. Bb5 institutes Ruy lopez.(aka Spanish)
The "Italian Variation" in the Ruy Lopez occurs only in the Open variation 1. e4 e5 2. Nf3 Nc6 3. Bb5 a6 4. Ba4 Nf6 5. O-O Nxe4 6. d4 b5 7. Bb3 d5 8. dxe5 Be6 9. c3 Bc5
Bc4 is not the Giuoco Piano, that's defined when black responds Bc5.
A few thoughts from a long time chess teacher of kids:
1) I would recommend to show fewer moves but mention the 3...a6 line, and the general motive for Bb5.
2) The italian 3. Bc4 is NOT the Ruy Lopez, it is a different opening.
btw "fianchetto" is pronounced Fee-ahn KE to, the "ch" is pronounced as a hard K (italian for side-kick)
Generally The three concepts control the center, develope the pieces and protect the king are well presented in the Ruy as white often castles soon.
The speech is very clear and without an accent ( which would be VERY distracting when shown to a group of kids) This was well prepared and I bet there will be more good videos from the girl! Good job!
"Fianchetto" has a "k" sound in Italian, but in English, both pronunciations are acceptable. I pronounce it with "k", 'cause I'm a pedant.
@@furrykef Being right isn't being pedantic. And in the context of a lesson, the teacher had better be right, so that the students will learn the right way. So it would've been better for her to use a "k" sound.
@@rosiefay7283 The "ch" pronunciation is well established in English. If you're teaching chess, not Italian, there's no problem with pronouncing it "ch".
I totally understood ...most of the first half! 😂
I’ll come back to this
Hey, sorry if i sound like an idiot. At 1:39 wouldn't it be better if black just attacks your Bishop with a Pawn? Why just leave it there when it can at least force it to retreat? Thanks in advance.
I think developing a piece would be better. a pawn attack just seems like a weak turn
Oh, ok. Thanks dude.
Actually attacking the bishop by playing a6 is I think the most often played move by masters so you are right it's a good idea
DJDavidShmosh your elo can't be above 800 based off that sentence lol white is forced to respond to this "weak" pawn move by either taking or dropping back.

It's good and is the mainline. Nf6 is just some stuff that grandmasters play but leads often to draws
Three months after watching this video, I now thank you for helping chalk up at least two more wins per 10 games played. The Spanish variation really works! Thank you very much.
Ruy Lopez is the second part of move. There is Itallian and Spanish variations / follow up
If Black plays a6, Bxa6 then bxa6 or dxa6 and Black has doubled pawns which can be targeted later in the game. Also, most GMs play c5 against e4 so yea.
Milo the Dinosaur how could you take the bishop on a6 with the d pawn?
dxa6??
3:59 why you moved 2 pieces simultaneously 😃
My strategy is develop a good pawn defense while reaching the center of the board with usually my Knights and initially attack on the King side with my Queen but depending on my opponent how he plays could lead the King attack to the opponents Queen side
Cool cool no one cares D:
I would argue that a6 is the most common response to Bb5 rather than developing a knight or bishop.
Even if it isn't the "better" move, its what most sub 1500 players will do every time.
Royce Davis yes I do agree with you
Royce Davis sub 1500? It is the most common played move in grandmaster games buddy. You probably didn't know because you've never played someone over 1000 lol
You're underestimating the Berlin Defense.
It's two different openings.
I'm not trying to be so critical, but I feel this video is somewhat inaccurate. a6 after Bb5 is certainly more common than Nf6, however I will say that Nf6 is perfectly playable for black. Also, I'm pretty sure that one of the main secrets of the Ruy Lopez is that white is temporarily able to ignore the threat to e4 for a single tempo, by castling, even though in the Nf6 variation his threat to take on e4 may be slightly stronger.

A Knight on the A file is not a bad opening. Durkin Opening is a great opening. You can use it to surprise opponents
3:00 she surrended. She lost the game.
Girl: *knocks out her king in a thought of surrendering*
Also girl: *proceeds to show lines anyways*
She misspoke. There is a difference between the Italian game (which is what she meant to say) and the Italian variation of the Ruy Lopez...
www.365chess.com/eco/C82_Ruy_Lopez_open_Italian_variation
4:10 The Knight is pinned mate
1:51 What about if white takes the knight with the bishop, black would have to double pawns, wouldn't that put black at a disadvantage?
That is exactly what I would do. However, all the noobs are like oH THe bIShOp iS BetTeR ThAN tHE KnIgHT i'M fOuR YeARs OlD
Black would have the bishop pair as compensation .
There is a lot of big lines that are missing, like 3...a6 or the marshall gambit...
Whenever my opponent moves the bishop to pin my knight, I always immediately move my pawns forcing the bishop to go back.
Good explanation I like the move whit to c3 for the great bishop Tuck away for the preparation of black to H5
"Good Explanation"
What is this ?? Where are other variations of Ruy Lopez, like Morphy defense.
1:55 a6 is way more common .
You mean h3
zzz.... Bc4 is the Italian game and Bb5 is the Ruys Lopez, please dont teach wrong things to people
She said that
1:33 why not just take the knight with the bishop? Because after Pawn captures then Knight captures e5 and white is up a pawn
Tech Base black can take with the dpawn and after the knight takes the on e5 black can attack both the knight and the e4 pawn with his queen. They can't both be defended with one move, therefore black retains the pawn.
Sagacious, then Black would play Qd4 or Qg5 and win back the pawn.
So it's a losing opening for black you say? because the queenside attack is not where the white's king is, but white's attack on kingside is also where black's king is located. So white's attack is actually more threatening than black's.
She is my favorite coach
her eyes blink so fast
Now I can’t stop staring at her eyes
Broo why mention it. Now I'm distracted lol
I think she’s nervous
The Ruy Lopez is b5, c4 is known as the Italian Game
I have a problem... in ruy lopez. Spanish... usually my oppoent captures my nigh and i recapture with pawn he captures my centre pawn... this usually become bad for me
You didn't explain the Morphy Defense, Classical Defense, Old Steinitiz Defense, and Berlin Defense. You also, didn't explain what happens if White takes the knight on c6 with the bishop and then later takes the pawn on e5.
can I hybrid different plays like Queens Gambit + Italian for example??? I'm just a egginer so no need for judging😅
Please tell how to mate with a knight and a bishop
in the ruy lopez has only one move to represent it and that is Bb5
What if black pawn moved to a6 after white bishop moved to b5 ?
It doesn't work placing the white bishop on b5 because the machine plays after pawn to a 6 attacking the Bishop!
I looked up Rebecca Taxman online and her rating is 1250 -_-
LMFAO
Good god, I couldn't bring my rating that low even if I tried.
That's an ad hominem argument. There are mistakes in this video, but you should be addressing those, not her rating.
furrykef, okay, for one thing, the move d3 is an inaccuracy as white hopes to eventually play d4 in one move. A better way to defend the pawn on e4 is to short castle and then play Re1.
On chess .com?
Please take a moment and pause at 3:36
Im a beginner and this helped a lot
Chess: The Ruy Lopez
Me: *chess addict but doesnt understand*

Where can i buy set like this
There is a grammar fail in the description of this video, it says rook controlling the center FIVE, what has to be of course center FILE
what chess set is this?
I play the ruby Lopez. There are many variations
U r not covering Morphy... which is the main line rather than Berlin
Im sorry but you are showing incorrect variations. Instead of c3 white has Bxc6 and then Nxe5 winning the pawn. Also, the most popular move after Bb5 is a6.
What about 3...a6

Great vid, content right as advertised.
it was a horrible video how could you.
can you make an unknown but strong opening??
highly unlikely
i thought the ruy lopez was just a different word for the spanish game...
It is.
Good
Your explanation is good. However, the camera focus should always be on the board. We need to see the board constantly. Your face, you can show only in the beginning and at the end.
That moment t when you watch the. Video at 144p and it still buffers :(
What if the opponents don't move the same way as you demonstrated
Make them
Her elbow has a crush on the king
When white castles you could have done the fishing pole trap.
At second last movement have moved the knight twice
make a 4 move check mate
1.e4 e5 2. Bc4 Nc6 3. Qh5 Nf6 4.Qxf6#
hello
super squares????? WE ARE NOT FIVE
what
goo goo gah gah
the ruy lopez is the spanish game.
Oh yes, Bobby Fisher be playing chess in 2013
It's difficult to concentrate because the camera is not always focused on the board.

Its been two years but I hope you found out its Knight
@@SuperBKDK lmao yes I did back then I couldn't spell lmao
say whi-black decides to dev-put its bishop...
need too know ASAP
has anyone ever heard of the phrase Russian knight before ?

It is a good chess opening. Totally not bad.
There is no Italian Variation of the Ruy Lopez. Good grief.
Where is she looking?,is she looking at flash cards?
This looks like Evans gambit

Johnny P not really. The Italian game is Bc4. That can transpose to the Giuoco Piano by Black playing Bc5
