As a chess noob, I’m confused by all the pawn guidelines. You essentially can only move your pawn forward?
Thank u seer
Thanks for your content! already winning more!
Beautiful video. Thank you brother 🙏🏻
I’m new to Chess I was wondering at 17 minutes how is there a checkmate. Couldn’t the blacks pawn take the knight to remove the threat
Better to make it "minimize” hope in your games. All human level play involves hope. That includes super GMs who hope for, not really mistakes or blunders, but at least one inaccuracy at a critical inflection point. Do not stress or become anxious when you are in hope mode. Again, everyone routinely experiences moments of hope. Don’t create unreasonable (impossible) plans and let it undermine your progress.
I knew most of them, and learned a couple good ones. Like what to trade for when you're head/behind or that you should counter a flank attack with a center attack.
Some don't feel innate or I haven't worked out why they're true. Like 2 pawns on the 6th rank beat a rook. I didn't know games with opposite colored bishops are dangerous in the middle.
I have a hard time wrapping my head around why material of the same value is worth/more less. Why develop knights before bishops? I kind of get why you don't trade bishops for knights. I have a hard time accepting 3 minor peaces are more valuable than a queen, or 2 minor peaces are more valuable than rook+pawn.
3.25 the rook just captures the knight on the center and the example goes wrong.
Best chess video I’ve ever seen. Simple but clear and effective.
hi , i think you forgot or skipped principle number29

Taking casual chess more seriously than school rn.

Very nice tutor❤
Playing for fun mostly, but these tips certainly ensure that fun increases, thanks!
how is 34 a check mate? a pawn can kill the knight?
Thank you great video
where have I heard this gentleman's voice b4 🤔?? sounds very familiar.
After a move, ask yourself what the piece was defending and what new threats are there.
Late to comment but you’re a very good chess content creator and I learn like at least 1/3 from you, I’m your average chess fan that likes it more than it likes me and I’ve been watching your videos for years, keep it up
Thank you Nelson very much.
Just seeing this now – sharing with everyone I know. Was a 1650 player at 15 in 1990. You nailed a lot of good ones. Two I didn’t know. I think you need a follow up video with more of these. Call them bonus rules. I have a few.
1) generally speaking, do not exchange a ‘good bishop’ for a bad bishop
2) create open lanes for bishops to increase their value
3) attack supported pawns with minority attack
4) keep tempo, or fight to get it
5) create space, when possible
6) support all pieces, when possible. Don’t leave hanging pieces
7) understand tactics like forks and pins
Mucho gracias.
Your last one it was not a smooth check mate😂😂😂😂
very informative vid! thanks
as an aside, I'm a knight lover, and so I'm the idjit that will make a bishop knight trade every time.
Excellent Presentation!!!
What about controlling either dark or light squares ?
Chess is a brain game not a tricky
And played by a on principlees
Jesus all I do is play hope chest
Nice video.❤
Noted sir! 9/17/22
I love rule 34 of chess. wait-
17:05 that's not a checkmate when the piece can be captured by the pawn 🤷♂️
I thoroughly enjoyed your presentation. Thank you.
#33 is weird. Don’t play “hope chess”?!
A big part of chess is using the opponents mistakes. You always hope that your opponent doesn’t see different forks and so on. If you assume you always play (on any level) against a perfect playing computer, you could change to Backgammon instead. 😂
The pilots often says: “Never assume, it makes an ASS of U and ME!
What’s your FIDE rating?
Principle 36? Don't blindly follow the other principles. Recognize when you need to break the rules.
Great!
Principle #36: Never shake your opponent’s hand until the game is over
Ahh .. "Hope chess" – that warm blanket beginners live in 😂
If i ever beat magnus. Thats bcuz of this video🤌😌
6? I was lead to believe that non-committal moves are best.
thanks !
