3 years in my chess journey und still, your content is one of the main reasons, I've went from 1500 to 1800 since, hopefully with still some way to go ❤️💪🏻
I’m hard stuck at 1500 right now. What did you do to improve?
@@andrewwilson9123 I guess Its different for everybody but my breakthrough came after focusing in solving a lot of excercises and playing a couple of rapid games per week and toning down the studying a bit.
On top I played roughly 50 classical Games Last years🤷🏼♂️
2200 now and I still watch all your videos
Great lesson professor!
If I can make a suggestion: since "the first mistake" is such a recurrent topic on adult improvers, I would love to see a "First Mistake" series dealing with those different problems that all of us suffer.
Thanks and take care of your health.
Second this. Great suggestion!
+1 on this!
Quality coaching is worth its weight in gold. You, sir, are a quality coach!
Appreciate that
You have no idea how much of a "mindblow" moment was your explanation that we can still safely castle kingside starting from 5:01. My first chess book was Logical Chess move by move, and the author there spends good amount of book scaring you from ever moving ANY kingside pawns, giving you multiple example where that eventually lost the game, even if there was no immediate threat. I guess that logic was firmly stuck in my subconscious, thank you for this amazing lesson!
"...the I Have No Idea What I'm Doing Opening." LOL!
This lesson was only review for me, but it's so simply and clearly presented it was still a pleasure to watch. By the end of the video everyone must have been wishing they could have you for their coach. First rate instruction.
Couldn’t help but comment on this video of yours, although I haven’t done it before on any RUclips video. Watching this video of yours felt like having a personal coach by my side. And every time I watch your videos I realise the importance of having a coach, although I can’t afford one… most of the stuffs I try to learn from RUclips only. And I must admit you have really helped me a lot in my journey. I’m still an intermediate player, I strive to be a better chess player and be a master someday. Just can’t thank you enough coach. You’re a true master for me! ❤️
That means a lot, thanks for the kind words!
I actually have a game like this in my ancient past where, after gxf3, I just played Ke2, Rhg1 and had my opponent's king in a crossfire of bishops and rooks.
I am going to like every video that you have ever recorded. Getting arthritis in my thumbs. lol
Appreciate the support kind sire!
A real problem many of us have is really digging down into the requirements of the position. A good coach can guide us. However, many of us are alone. I recommend playing long classical games, doing postmortem with your opponent if possible then annotate your games via the lichess study feature. Only after fully annotating do you use an engine. The purpose is to find out the psychological reasons you made a mistake (did I fail to look for opponent's bestnresponses? Did I try a kingside attack when it wasn't warranted...?) Next, come up with a strategy for reducing the chances of making similar mistakes in the future. All of this goes into your annotations. Summarise and review your summaries periodically.
Great insight into the fact the engine doesn't ask you 'why?'.
Thanks for these lessons. I recently bought your course 'The Amateur's Mind' and it is amazing. I'am also studying How To Reassess your chess by Jeremy Silman. These two courses/books are really helping me 'fix' my chess. I am currently two years into my journey and almost 1800 (National Rating). My goal is to become a chess master in the next decade. I am not that guy who is trying to become it in a year, because I want to be realistic yet ambitious. Thanks Andras :)
Glad you enjoy it!
Reached 1847 Fide, still watch your videos for real good lessons and changing mentality in positions like this one for when I was 1400 1.5 years ago.
Thanks!
Thanks so much Cortney, glad you like the material!
@@ChessCoachAndras I am still dont know what the hell Im doing, but like to support you. I assume this is now an automated response, BUT ginger, lemon, garlic! and distilled water. Congestion - pineapple
@@cortneykelley74 you are very kind! the amount of ginger , lemon and garlic I consumed in the past 2 months would be enough for an indian restaurant for an entire year!
Also thanks for the support! I recommend you to join twitter and befriend as many chess people as possible. The #chesspunks community is a large bunch of adult improvers of all skill levels, who are very nice and supportive towards each other!
@@ChessCoachAndras funny! Well I have some other witches' brew options, vitamin d, natural sunlight the best(not part of the brew). But, just concerned, Ive had a few friends w/similar ailments. You will be fine!
And thank you for the recommendation, Im not a huge fan of social media, but I will try and check it out. But your latest video did resonate. It reminds me of "stop, drop and roll", that was an American thing, if you are on fire. But instead, maybe we should try and not be on fire, dont get in a stupid position. Now I ramble. Get well soon and thanks.
i love your videos, thank you, your passion for chess shines through your content and is very admirable. You have struck a way of teaching that can only be reached when someone really tries to understand the underlying principles of a subject and additionally comprehends the deeper intuition of the game which can help with how you explain things to students
i am only a beginner but enjoy teaching maths and just wanted to say this
Brilliant video! Simple but very instructive
wow, excellent explanation of this concept!
Thanks, Andras - brilliant explanations and example, love it!
Glad you liked it!
If you watch this guy's videos and you never improve, just know chess isn't for you. I've watched plenty from many, and Coach Andras' content is way underrated.
This was a banger explanation.
Thanks mate!
Great material! And that is a great concept.
Thanks for sharing your wisdom!!!!
This shows how a coach is immeasurably more valuable than an automated "analysis" using a hamstrung engine.
Awesome video. So clear why people working on their chess with only the engine to help them have such a difficult road ahead of them. Coaches make a huge difference.
Exactly!
I used to be 1800 when I started watching your videos. I'm now 1500. Thanks!
😂
Bought your amateur's Mind course, just loved it coach ❤
Thanks for this lesson, Coach
My pleasure!
underrated channel
Great video!
👏👏👏 great great lesson!
Very good stuff
Thanks for another excellent video
First step to failure is trying.
bloody brilliant!
Outstanding.
It might not be as good as a coach but I've found issues like this with the engine by following the lines it gives and seeing why the eval drops. 1.6 -> -.4 is a huge difference.
You can also play around on the analysis board and see what happens in the lines you were "afraid of".
Good stuff.
Great video!
Vraiment très bien. Thanks.
Merci à vous
I think this is one reason why even if you don't have a coach, you should go over games with another human before you ever look at the engine. If you have a blind spot, you can't see it, by definition. Grab a friend or go over the game with some people on discord, or whatever but you need human eyes on it who you can actually talk to and ask questions to.
Aaaah. The soviet onion gambit variation
Hey Coach. Just wanted to say that the link to your website on twitter is very fishy for som reason. My system says that it could have malware or stuff like that
I don't think Be3 is a real mistake, even Stockish 16 evaluates both Be3 and Nc3 the same (+1.1). After h6 was played, g5 is not a square for bishop anymore, e3 looks like the best spot. Nd2 and especially Bxd5 are screaming mistakes which student needs to understand of course.
I dont think you watched the video. I did say that Be3 is not a mistake at all . The idea why it was played was the mistake. (Like I said in the video)
I recently reached 1800 in rapid. What should I do next to reach 2000?
Impossible to tell without seeing your games.
@@ChessCoachAndras how can I have my games analyzed by you, Coach?
😃
Wish I could give this many "likes"!
Another very thought provoking video, which I fundamentally disagree with! Most of 605 million people who play chess regularly DO NOT HAVE a coach. And never will! For them, the First Mistake is Ne1?. (No Ifs & Ands, or Buts.) Why? Its the first move that PROVES the player made his move without considering his opponents possible replies, that is why. And for 604.5+ million players THAT is the only issue worth discussing. Why? Because its a bigger hole in 604.5 million buckets than positional understanding is, that is why. And then you say its easy to fix? Ouch! Man, I been working on it for 59 years, and its still an issue for me. (I am LiChess 2100, which is much better than most of those folks, so they cannot fix it either, evidently. So how easy can it really be? Yogi Berra, longtime coach of the New York Yankees baseball team famously said: "In Theory there is no difference between Theory & Practice. In Practice, there is!)
And for Covid, Ivermectin is a must. Do not believe the Big Pharma blarney, just get some...
Thanks for the in depth response! Interesting thoughts.
As for covid, I am 90% done with it!
great video!
Thanks for the visit
