The debate among sudoku players is "should you use a procedure or not". I suggest that a procedure is good for beginners.. If on the way of solving you see something which you can be solved then go ahead and then come back to a procedure . O course it is your choice.
In this puzzle you may wish to copy it down first and try it yourself, then watch me solve it.
There are many paths to take and in this puzzle. I miss some important ramifications and as a result finish up taking a different path to solve.
Below are some places which I missed re ramifications. Did you notice them?
12.22 missed an 8
14.29 missed the 9's
16.24 missed 3 's in vertical blocks
18.31 missed a 4 in r 7 c9
20.02 missed ram in r 6
26.50 missed 2/5 mp in r 5
Although many ramifications were missed, by taking a different path the puzzle was still solved.

I can't wait for #100. I hope something special is planned.
It is planned Keep watching. Thanks for your support.
Just finished work and this notification pops up. Looking forward to this!
Enjoy Myfyr. Happy learning.
@@SudokuGuy Great video again, as always! 👍
Another good one Robin. I tend to sweep through the rows and columns with TMB and LCR, followed by Cross-meet, just as you taught. I find it can be done quite quickly. Then I start looking for 'other things'. Thanks for clarifying the ambiguity rule. Take care.
Thanks for sharing! Robin More tutorials are coming. Please tell your friends.
I have herd you say their might be two answers to a puzzle but I can't see how. Maybe you could give an example..😊
Hi Robin - I am your fan and started doing sudoku watching your tutorials. I found the going tougher when there are 25 or lesser numbers in the beginning of the puzzle. Can you please release tutorials for such puzzles. If you have already done those puzzles please forgive my ignorance and be kind enough to mention the tutorial numbers.
Glad to know you wish to learn more. Look at tutorials from #50 to 100 and you will see many examples where I solve starting from just a few numbers. Look at the list of titles. All the best.
@@SudokuGuy Many thanks for your prompt response and shall definitely go through the lessons suggested by you.
God bless you Sir . You are a HERO
Gee Thanks Kera. Thanks for your support. Please tell others about Sudoku Guy.
Wishing for your health
Thanks. Vivek. Robin
19:43 that's indeed a magical rule!
Yes Fran it is important to avoid the unique rectangle because you may finish up with 2 answers, which is not a true sudoku
Very important to watch for these unique rectangles. I call them Danger Danger in other tutorials.
Good video, thanks. Question - at time 25.58, why select the 8 in row 5 and NOT the 8 in row 4. Thanks in advance.
The 8 must go in r5 as there is already an 8 in r4.. I hope I have understood your question. Suggest look at this section again. Robin
Whats is the fastest time in which youve solved hard sudoku?
For me I have no idea because I am not interested in hurrying, I am more interested in doing it right.
You are freakin' amazing.
Thanks Kathy. Please tell others.
Yes I GOT IT. MATCHING PAIRS. YEA THANKS
Way to go charissa. Understand the power of matching pairs is very important.

I have tried to use Snyder Notation rules to maximum extent in solving. And once I have completed that, in and advanced puzzle, I am not sure the next technique to apply. At 8:57, you added the other 3,8 in a different block. Is it still Snyder Notation at that point? And then you placed 2,3,8 in the two cells. At this point, you are beyond Snyder Notation, right? What would you say generally is the next step after your Snyder Notation is complete?
By the time you get to tutorial 93 you have to use a different method.. If you look at tutorial 79 and above you will see a different method being used. It's called "locked litlle numbers" Hope this helps. Robin
Robin, I laugh every time you say "that was a pun". My ex-wife used to say "that's two thirds of a pun---P.U."
Ha ha neat !
questioni please: WHY DOES IT "HAVE TO BECOME A 9" in what you call the "danger danger" situation. row 7 column 6. 59, 45, 459
My suggestion is to look at this part of the puzzle again. By putting in the 9 it saved the 45 45 45 45 possible danger danger from happening Robin
19.45 Why does the 4, 5, 9 combination has to be 9?
Good question the same reason as the 2 had to b e put in earlier. The 9 must be there to stop a Danger Danger situation where there could b e 2 answers. A sudoku puzzle must never have 2 answers
I think a procedure would greatly slow down the solving of this grid, which is pretty easy for the first 30-odd steps, just by following the numbers. The crunch point presents two URs, although one of them is a dead end (28 = row 2 column 8):
28, 33, 39, 35, 31,
11, 25, 37, 79, 77,
99, 17, 93, 85, 24,
15, 27, 29, 18, 49,
69, 52, 75, 81, 73,
86, 58, 68, 53, 48,
45, 64, 41, 95 (UR, boxes 2 and 8)*,
71, 92, 76, 74, …
* A UR in boxes 4 and 7 yields R6C7, but then nothing else.
Without a UR:
92 instead of 95 (colours on 5s from this cell),
95, 46, 34, 36, …
Thank you for sharing Julian
As you know Julian, I gain most enjoyment of sudoku when beginning by just letting the numbers 'hit my eye' (i.e. definitely no system to start the grid). I'm not saying playing without a system is more efficient, but (and here this might be based on personality) a random start feels good. I think it's "horses for courses".
@@zen_art_of_guardian_sudoku Yes, I think some people need some sort of procedural approach in order to be able to cope with the flow of incoming information without becoming overwhelmed. But such an approach is inherently inefficient and slow in comparison to simple number following (see some 5s, follow the 5s, etc.). Indeed, it's not difficult to devise a grid that strongly penalizes counting and cycling, which are the two main features of typical solving procedures.
I suggest you look at Sept tutorial coming as I discuss this whole subject and solve a hard puzzle without small small
❤❤❤
Compliments of the season I hope you are learning lots. Thanks for your support. Robin
23:44 how???
I think you have looked ahead without looking at my earlier videos. Below is a link which will take you to my list of all the videos which teach you step by step. matching pairs play a very important part when solving sudoku. Look at lessons 3 to 12 to learn about these.

Why are you not uploading video, are you ok sir?
Hello Yash. I am uploading videos regularly for 8 years. PLease go to my channel page to see over 140 videos I have made. go to sudokuguy.com, click on the video button which will take you to my channel page. Hope this helps Robin
In tutorial no.93 in column no 6 row no 7 you had three small numbers, 4, 5 and 9 but you selected 9 when you could have chosen 4 or 5. The reason you gave was not audible. Can you please clarify
If you continue watching you will hear me say we have to put a 9 there to stop the puzzle having 2 answers. It is called the unique rectangle or as I call it the danger danger. A puzzle cannot have 2 answers. Hope this helps.
Do you have a video on the rule for 19:40? Thanks
Yes look at tutorial # 94 which will be coming out in Aug. In the meantime go to my home page and look at tutorials called "Danger Danger" The unique rectangle can have to solutions which is not accepted in sudoku.
Is it better to make a procedure?
Good question . Essential for learners for the first part of solving further on in the puzzle if it is difficult you then have to look around more.. Look at my recent videos and you will see the to begin with I have a procedure. later when I look for e.g. triplets then I could be looking all over the puzzle. Robin
Why two 4 in diagonal
I'm not sure what you mean, and could you let me know the minute you are referring to.I'd be happy to help.
Hey Sudoku Guy, do you make your own sudokus (handmade)?
Yes and no
You are solving very very very easy suduko puzzles

hmm. i read your answer, "to avoid danger" but I don't see why that's a logical step. the creator of the puzzle should see to these snafus, shouldn't he?
May be, but the solver has to be aware of the danger danger. situation.
