But it's only -1, so it's not a big deal, let's keep going" and then gets pogged up by "Game Changers" that are just "The opponent made a blunder and you didn't immediately counter-blunder". And then things like "Over the course of ten moves you went from up by one to down by one, then in ten moves you brought it back" don't get a key moment so they don't get looked at at all, when that's probably the most important stuff if you want to get better

    So I went on a school trip with a bus years ago and the bus stopped on a gas station at 2 am to let some of us pee. First of all I was surprised it happened at such a late hour but I was thankful because I really needed to go. I was uncomprehensibly sleepy but I managed to get to the right toilet room. All the stalls were closed accept one and I quickly occupied it. About 2 minutes into my poop someone got the same idea and started looking for an open stall. I was the only one else in the restroom so I had to give him an answer when he was to knock on my stall door. When this moment inevitably came I forgot all the right acceptable responses, so when he knocked, instead of me saying: 'occupied' I said: 'come in'. The person on the other side did not laugh nor express confusion, instead he just fleed the area all together. To this day I still don't know who was on the other side and for all I know it could be someone I knew who could've recognized my voice and now knows this unsatisfying thing about me. This has nothing to do with chess, I just wanted to share a story.

    Hey NL, whenever you get a long mate in an analysis, it'd be cool to watch you treat the game as a puzzle from there out, playing both sides. It might pad out the video a bit but I think it'd be good practice to look for longer lines near the late midgame/early endgame.

    Game 1, e4 critical mistake: don't reinforce the pawn, take with the d-pawn. This forces the release of tension on the d6 square, resulting at worst a trade of rook for queen, probably winning the game. Had me yelling, my dude. I'm getting Baba Is You flashbacks.

    22:00 haven't seen the rest of the game or analysis. i predict that nf6 is the best move. if they respond bxf6, queen takes and puts the king in check, and mate will come quick with the open files and the rooks. if they do bxf1, you do nxg8 for the trade. after the trade they have to move their bishop, and black responds with rd1 for check which puts mate on the table again.
    25:08 re7 is the best move here. if bxe7, qxf4 (queen takes rook). if kb6, rb7 is mate. if kb8, qg8 is mate
    edit: it didn't matter at all, and i didn't think it would either. just fun to find moves!

    Why is it when watching someone else's game I see all sorts of tactics and traps but then in my own games I hang pieces lol. At 10:53, if you play Rc1, your opponent playing Rxd6 is a trap since you then can play Rxd6. If your opponent plays Qxd6, you'd have a Rc8+, forcing Qg8 and winning the queen, then all of the left pawns through skewers with the queen. I'd never find that in my own game, but something about watching someone on youtube makes these stand out to me.

    most people in that position against a practiced player would have played it out and lost and most don't have the time management skills to accept a draw from a winning position so don't feel bad it was a pretty good play

    Great mate, but it could have been mate in eight or m8, mate!

    Mate in 8 is with perfect play from Black though. After Rook to e1, any response that is not Rook to e8 loses pretty fast.
