Why is castling so important? Safer for the King to be in a corner?
Nice video; basics but you speak well and make sense. Good job
Great video
This was really helpful, thank you 😊
On rule 9 i saw a dicovered check
8:32 RULE #10 has a #9 instead .
Instructions not clear, the snakes are climbing up the ladder.
such an amazing cutie
This was needed, thank you
You are a great teacher! Please post more videos like this for beginners! You can encourage a whole new generation to play chess. I really think you and your sister are changing the game and culture, making it more inviting and less intimidating. Thank you!!!
8:18 that was a blunder :p (jk)
Cool, first time listening to a chess commentary and it was actually surprisingly easy to follow and piques interest in trying a chess game myself.
Definitely helps that you have a nice, confident speaking voice.
P.S. not sure how this ended up in my recommended
as a recent chess convert, i love this
I've been playing chess for 70 years and I'm still a beginner.
I don’t think you have to castle. Sometimes it makes sense to stay in the middle. Double pawns is really nice late game with a king if it’s a battle to reach the end. It creates a wall to protect your king from a single unit. I like the idea of the open/closed for bishops and knights. The assessment of that knight play wasn’t really fair. The bishop was on an advantage color to pressure the pawns and create an opening for movement creating a pawn rush. I think these tips are nice to know but people need to know when it’s feasible for these tips. Overall interesting.
10 quick tips in 10 minutes, why aren't there more chess videos like this? This is gold and thanks for producing it.
💯💯
Thank you
she speaks like she is running out of voice every second. gj
Yeah, I literally can't concentrate whatsoever when Andrea talks. I'm just smitten. Please checkmate with me. The word 'raunchy' was invented specifically for her smokey voice.
with a beautiful girl like you it's very hard to concentrate on the game
Hehe I'm the 1000th comment
thanks for the video
Geez…I wonder why all these grand masters want to date u….. Im just baffled.
Thank you so much for this video. A lot of your "don't dos" are exactly the things I was doing wrong. I will check back on this video frequently. I'm new to your channel, so I'm not familiar with your content. But I have a lot of trouble with end-game tactics and strategies. There might be just one or two moves to a checkmate, but I seem to miss those opportunities a lot. Do you have, or could you do a video like this for endgame tips?
Which chess iPhone app do you think is good to play on would recommend. Currently playing on Apple Arcade chess do you know any other good ones
Cute
Pov: Andrea making a bishop blunder for black on 8:18 when she got all the time in the world
End of the video: 9:07 I want to hug my teacher. She was very good and nice and did it with excitement. 🙂
8:31 Rule#10 There's a mistake in the video. It says Rule#9.
I liked how you did it without taking a breath. Or you're very excited to inform us.
After mention mr.beast I’m out.
Love her voice, so cute 🙂 nive tips also
Fuck beast
all these are awesome and true, thanks Botez, but in case u guys get to something like this 8:09, take the bishop when its free 😜
think of the pawns as toes on your feet and the other player is a mouse who wants to eat them 🙂
