    "What can I attack" is a real game-changer. It's amazing how often hidden resources jump to life when you ask it regularly. The problem is that it is so easy to fall back into passive habits; it takes discipline to think of counter-attacks on every move. Something I am still working on.

    • @MyBiPolarBearMax
      @MyBiPolarBearMax Год назад +28

      Every move should create a problem for your opponent. Passive moves have to have specific purposes.
      Its something im still trying to make sure i consistently do while keeping my other principles in line.
      Its why strong players always feel like they are “leaning on” you. They are following basic chess principles but putting pressure on with every move.

    Nice, seeing 5 moves ahead is really cool. My dad was into chess, big time. I was playing chess by 7 years old. My dad played Bobby Fischer at a chess club in Chicago, where Bobby went from table to table, and was blindfolded, so he made all his moves by knowing where every piece on the table was without looking, which is extremely impressive.My dad got down to the last pawn, and Bobby won, but the point of this is that my dad taught me to play the same way you are teaching, to always look for an attack to keep the pressure on, and to always have a strong defense.Always think of defense 1st. Great video, I really enjoyed it.

    • @DecrepitBiden
      @DecrepitBiden 10 месяцев назад +1

      If you don't mind me asking, how did Fisher keep track of all the pieces, his & his opponents? Since being blindfolded, when his opponent made a move, did they tell him the notations? And he just memorized, EVERYTHING, on every board? That is impressive.

    A great lesson, even for those of us who have been playing for a while.
    Many 'forced' moves are anything but. Unless you are in check, you may miss greatness by just reacting defensively, as shown here. Defending a piece is meh if you had a great counterattack or other thwarting move.
    To boil down the nuances of chess into easy to grasp and easy to remember and apply lessons- true genius. Thank you.

    Whenever i teach chess to someone wanting to get better, after all the basic stuff (development center tempo time material), the first thing i teach is “only take for a specific reason.”
    It really is a basic idea but getting used to playing closed games and leaving tension will help you advance so so so much.

    7:26 I found a really nice move here Nxe4 with the idea that if they take your queen you take their knight forcing them to give up their queen too and the opportunity to castle and like that the king is unsafe and you can win tempo easily
    Edit: you explained another move similar to mine but I'm really happy with my find
    Edit: my move was not as good as I thought it'd be because I also need to sacrifice my right to castle sadly

      But White has Nxe4 and if Black captures Knight with d5 Pawn then you lose queen, can't capture bishop because it is now defended by both Knights, so the best move would be push f6 Pawn or move your Queen. So you would be losing because you are down a Knight.

    Obviously, after 6. dxc4 Bxc4, 7. Bg5 will turn out badly for the reasons indicated. But if White doesn't do that, it seems to me that 6. dxc4 does serve a purpose - it leaves Black with an isolated d-pawn, which should be advantageous to White, no?
