This series is so good, it really helps a beginner like me see how great players think and plan ahead. It’s especially impressive how Anna can talk through it all with the clock ticking and stay so calm!
That is so nice Anna. I really like your cheerful disposition and yes it’s infectious. I can see that you’re well on your way to becoming a grand master ! All the best.
Anna is very informative and funny. seen the ending several times. go to time 24:35 it was Anna turn, so she was like explaining with a real calm voice, “this is actually a checkmate, ok, this is really pretty, you can see the king is in the same diagonal as my bishop, (the opponent resigns ) Anna yells: “nooo they didnt let me checkmate, nooo , ok thats fine” it was nice, two checkmates an also the queen covering the escape route : )
At 11:42, I had to play it out in my head several times to figure out why it doesn't make sense to go Rook-B8...now I understand. I think your gift is how you can express your thought processes in every move, packaged in a concise and clear way, and your personality is bright and encouraging...all put together in an entertaining way! I'm just a beginner, but you've rekindled my interest in Chess. Thanks!
It's amazing how Anna just plays solid chess that OUTLASTS what her opponent is doing. Plus, her perception and instinct about what is a good move is fantastic.
These instructional videos are very useful, Anna, as they reveal how we need to think in order to improve at chess. One thing I don't understand, though: en passant! I rarely see it used, so I've never learned how to apply it.
Actually white was standing much better and the example from blacks camp was really bad. She got Lucky. Black is strong when it keeps the defense closed and bishop aimed at the opponents King. She keeps making the same mistakes. I can be nice and she is nice but as we all do we keep playing the same way and if you do you will not become better. Check the engine and get out the mistakes.
Very useful video. Thanks. I really like how you moved the pieces with your mouse, because it was much easier to follow what's happening compared to when you teleport them with the space bar.
Anna keeps explaining unconcerned that her time is running out. My heart rate keeps rising with concern, pointlessly, because she finishes the tutorial easily with time left. These videos are quite informative and fun to watch.
At 2:46, it would actually be better to capture with the knight rather than the queen. After knight takes bishop d7, pawn c6, you can take b4 with bishop, and then you will be able to go knight c5 on the next move.
Years ago when i was a bigger enthusiast and had time, i very much wanted to write articles or a book or to help someone write articles to get great clarity like this. But these days, all the heavens and floodgates have opened up, with you, Anna, and Gotham chess, and indeed Hikaru himself! But you, Anna Cramling, are simply fantastic! Bringing heaven down to earth!
No me canso de oírte cómo pronuncias "moves" como "miufs", es encantador... Muchas gracias por la forma de enseñar ajedrez, se ve que lo sientes con pasión G R A C I A S!!!
This is such a helpful series. Request: Please put all instruction videos in one playlist, Anna, and you will get a tons more views cuz people are sure to binge all your videos in the playlist. As of now it's very hard to find your instruction videos even though I want to.
As a beginner chess player these videos where you analyse yours and your opponents moves and explain the the thought process behind them are more valuable than gold. Do more please :-)

At 3:09 the White Rook could have moved to E-1 , Threating the Rook ! The only good move for the White Rook is H-3 or C-3 to trade Rooks , which I do Not like followed by White Knight to C-2 ! White Rook to H-1 is a move , White is still in trouble at this point but has a fighting chance and Time !
That was very helpful thank you for that! Maybe you can make this video with even lower rank, so beginners/intermediate like me can learn even more. Like at 1500+ the moves player are make are pretty solid, it's not like on the 1000+- rank. Anyway, great video 🤘🏼
That is really really helpful. I'll have to go to her RUclips page and see if there are more. (Well, this is part 2, so that has to be at least 1 more.)
I need you to explain the rook fork and why you took with the knight and not the castle because I think that was the correct decision i just couldnt figure out how
I'm a subscriber. I really enjoy this series. Since you asked what we'd like to see, my choice is the English with white and the Pirc with black against rank amateurs like me. 1000 to 12000.
This series is so good, it really helps a beginner like me see how great players think and plan ahead. It’s especially impressive how Anna can talk through it all with the clock ticking and stay so calm!
She talks at 900 words per minute.
My thoughts exactly.
My blood pressure goes up watching the clock ticking as she talks.
Hey Sam, "5 + 5 game". Is that 5 mins w/a 5 sec reboot?
This is the best format for chess videos! As a complete beginner, I find this very useful! Thanks!
Je ne parle pas quand je joue et je trouve cela phénoménal de pouvoir commenter un match de 5 minutes et en plus de gagner. Bravo Anna, respect à toi.
pour quelqu'un qui est fort·e, bien plus que l'adversaire, et rompu·e au streaming c'est naturel !
Love instructional videos like this one. Please do more and thanks so much
That is so nice Anna. I really like your cheerful disposition and yes it’s infectious. I can see that you’re well on your way to becoming a grand master ! All the best.
I love this! It was definitely easy to follow along and see these predictions/decisions :D
Keep these coming. Hearing your thought process through each move is very helpful.
so cool to hear your thought process for somebody like me who just started with chess. thanks Anna

it was nice, two checkmates an also the queen covering the escape route : )
I didn't get how she got a checkmate there, since the rook in a1 could take it
@@moisesgomes6191 Not if the king is already in check
So glad I found this channel, very helpful
There are so many stories on the web; but with your channel you get them so compressed; it is great.
Really enjoyed this video, very helpful to hear your thought process. I hope you do more videos like this.
Your energy and enthusiasm is awesome! You make learning chess fun. keep it up.
This is great Anna, I really needed this. I keep oscillating between 900-1000
At 11:42, I had to play it out in my head several times to figure out why it doesn't make sense to go Rook-B8...now I understand.

Thanks for taking another crack at this series, love the 5+1 blitz format for this.
You make it look so easy. Very helpful to see your process.
Nice vid Anna! More instructional vids please.
It's amazing how Anna just plays solid chess that OUTLASTS what her opponent is doing. Plus, her perception and instinct about what is a good move is fantastic.

just want to throw it out there. Chess needs you. You are making video that legit are making chess entertaining to watch. keep it up. Onward to 1M!
You’re way to good! Love the vids, learn a lot from them
"So I'm definitely dominating on the Queen's side."🔥😭
Actually white was standing much better and the example from blacks camp was really bad.
She got Lucky.
Black is strong when it keeps the defense closed and bishop aimed at the opponents King.
She keeps making the same mistakes. I can be nice and she is nice but as we all do we keep playing the same way and if you do you will not become better. Check the engine and get out the mistakes.
You must be joking that White position is better or it is better for White to resign.
Love it! You make it look so easy!
Helpful. Definitely good teaching
Very useful video. Thanks. I really like how you moved the pieces with your mouse, because it was much easier to follow what's happening compared to when you teleport them with the space bar.
Yes agree, good series building here now, more please Anna. :)
Thx for the video, your tempo in the video is GREAT....easy to watch your videos Anna!
Anna keeps explaining unconcerned that her time is running out. My heart rate keeps rising with concern, pointlessly, because she finishes the tutorial easily with time left.
These videos are quite informative and fun to watch.
That is soooooo helpful hearing your thought process like that.
for the algorithm
We must respect the algorithm
Yes.
What happened to the original thumbnail?
What?
@@gauthamchess yeah like this video had a difficult thumbnail when it released, like an hour later or something like that it changed
Lovely double check at the end! Thanks for the helpful vids!!
At 2:46, it would actually be better to capture with the knight rather than the queen.
After knight takes bishop d7, pawn c6, you can take b4 with bishop, and then you will be able to go knight c5 on the next move.
thank you for getting me into chess, keep it up🙌🏻
Yes, these are fantastic! So helpful! Please do more :)
I’m quite new to chess and i always learn new tactics watching your videos. Im really very exited and enjoy your content! Greetings from 🇬🇷

14:47 I love making Pawns look stupid! It’s my favorite thing 😃😃
Thanks for the helpful video!
Thanks for the instructions!
Anna is the Queen.
Dude I like you every time better, you are a great teacher. Yes more vids like this
Very good explanation. I'love more videos like these.
thx Anna, I learned a lot
The pace is fine, I'm a beginner and I find this very helpful

More videos like this, please....PLEASE
Great stuff, love this format!!
Great games as usual. Thank you Anna.
She is amazing for beginners like me, I'm learning so much for her clear explanations, so easy to follow. Thanks Anna 👍
When I'm watching you I am 3000. By myself, I am -5.🤷🏻♀️🤣
Congratulations on hitting 300k!
Sure makes it looks easy.
Enthusiasm is contagious. Anxious to try out this concept.
There is usually quites few things I learn, like giving the king breathing room or just the way you defended and developed pieces at the same time.
"My Bishop is under attack but I don't really care, I'm gonna threaten the queen because the queen doesn't have any good squares. "🙌
This is amazing, thanks Anna, you're the reason I'm hitting 1500!
hi I'm a newbie. Should i join chess classes to cross 1000 or online content like hers is also helpful enough
@@mrblackmamba117 online content
Love this! Thanks so much 👏🏽👏🏽
Love your videos. More like this one, please. I learned a lot. Thanks!
love how you just was shock when they gave you a free piece at 10:42 💀
24:42 Lost climax when your opponent resigns one turn too early.
This was a really helpful video, thanks
Great video. Very useful. I think it would be helpful to also include some analysis after the games.

Awesome! Thanks for creating so much excellent content.
Constructive criticism: It would be nice if you provided the link to Part 1 in the description. 😊
Just=>> SUBSCRIBE. .! , then go to her RUclips channel... It's ALL there, plus lots more. Her positive creativity is overwhelming..!
Beautiful.. i love your analysis Anna. You’re sooo smart hahaha
Ah yes checks captures and attacks, im really glad you keep mentioning it as i keep forgetting to think like this 😅 great video 😊
More educational real time breakdowns! So good
I’m about 1100, I learned the bare bone basics when I was young and didn’t really pick it back up until recently, wish me luck!
Love these games.
This is very good, thanks for daily chess and laughs.
Anna cramling
With rapid 10 min games, idk how to calculate all those possible captures and the possible trade scenarios. Rated 1200ish btw
Thank you for that concept, verry nice idea
Thanks you for the great video, Anna!
Your chess brain is incredible. You would beat me in under a minute.
These videos are fun and instructive!
I love this series. I need to know the reason behind the moves.
ive started chess a few months prior, my rating jumped from ~1400 to ~ 2200 after i saw a video explaining how to play Openings
Really helpful, please do further games like this where you analyse aloud
At 3:09 the White Rook could have moved to E-1 , Threating the Rook ! The only good move for the White Rook is H-3 or C-3 to trade Rooks , which I do Not like followed by White Knight to C-2 ! White Rook to H-1 is a move , White is still in trouble at this point but has a fighting chance and Time !

Thanks. Helpful please do more
Just gorgeous when you deliver a double check - Checkmate whilst Both pieces giving the checks would be taken, if not for the double check :P
And yes! More videos like this please! 😊
You were totally losing that first game until your opponent blundered their knight.
Enjoyed the lesson!
i love that you refer to chess positions as "pretty"
That is really really helpful. I'll have to go to her RUclips page and see if there are more. (Well, this is part 2, so that has to be at least 1 more.)
Thank you Anna
These videos are super helpful
In the first game after you castled at 4:56, your opponent could take your knight and make a fork on your queen and rook. Would it be good move?
it's defended by the other knight in f6.
This is exactly my problem. Didn’t see this knight at all :(
Love them thx Anna
I need you to explain the rook fork and why you took with the knight and not the castle because I think that was the correct decision i just couldnt figure out how
I learned a lot. More please.
