    Really nice tips, never thought of these to be honest and I have loved playing chess. Now with these tips I think I can beat anyone 🙂

    This video is approachable for people who have little chess experience without assuming the viewer knows nothing.

    I think I’m in love with you! 😅😅😅

    I think you did for chess almost as much as the Gambit series… 😍

    Great tips! Improving your position is very important, and something I overlook sometimes in pursuit of a game-changing move – which leads to more frequent blunders.

    I would like to play her…women can't play chess

    "When you castle, you make all your worries less". What a line

    Thank you I feel so much more comfortable playing after I drilled these tips into my head.

    the only time i move my bishops is when i want to snipe the enemy, along with the queen, but mostly i use the horses to attack, the bishops are for later

    Great video but the voice drives me nuts its like puberty Dora is explaining how to play chess

    I always hear people say develop your pieces and make a plan. It is the plan making that is hardest for me to grasp.

    No1 Rule in Chess: Play a ton of 5000+ Blitz games, 1 min and 3 mins. This will give you lots of quick mileage into your openings and midlegames.
    No2 Rule of Chess: Quickly analyse the possible movements from all the pieces, make a mental map of it. Try to rely on your brain rather than visually starring down at the board non stop.
    No3 Rule of Chess: By having an idea of where all the pieces can move you can start projecting in your head the next moves #2, #3, #4, #5, #6,#7 and you can start working and building your units towards that.
    No4 Rule of Chess: When you're planning your offensive, make sure to lay traps to hide your true targets and guide your opponent into your traps.

    No5 Rule of Chess: Keep Practicing your weakness.

    I recommend slowing down the movements bc honestly, no one can follow it that quickly except ppl like you hahah

    finally a chess player that explains shit goddamn thank u

    I hate chases but i love Bots. Oh the dilemma.

    I avoided watching these girls so hard, but she seems great, my bad for being sexist lol

    There is one thing I don't understand. How does the knight move? 😀

    Before, I knew the rules but now, I know how to play. Thank you.

    As a new player this was very helpful, thank you.

    What would you recommend as a desktop chess program?

    This is exactly what was looking for., Thank you for not LITTERING THIS AMAZING VIDEO WITH ADS AND CLUTTER

    meanwhile i still cant beat the intermediate bots lmao
