Same here. I feel quite normal knowing that more people struggle finding some moves that other chess youtubers just naturally see. Still learning. Hope you get a lot of elo, brother.
The good news is that once you’re like 1200 rated, half the opponents are good enough to quit when they’re behind as badly as you typically have them so you probably would have gained elo here if you were against better opponents 😆
That's mainly because higher elo players trust their equally high elo opponents to find the mate in 1, so forfeiting is a sign of respect. Of course I, a measle low rated not-even-a-chess-player, do not ever forfeit, because nothing is funnier than winning due to the opponent's hubris, and you'll never win against hubris if you show respect.
I lost many advantages because I was low on concentration when my opponents were insistent on continuing. I'm mentally drained and winning is on the horizon, your mind goes blank for a moment. And then suddenly you blunder.
I like how when you developed the knight to attack the queen you took extra care to work out that opponent doesn’t have a counter attack or check and the only way he can attack the undefended knight is by no longer defending the bishop. you create two undefended pieces, that is fine if opponent has no direct checks or threats. That could have easily gone bad if opponent had a check available and then could take the bishop on the next move but he didn’t in this case. I like the creativity. The higher rated players would probably say, “I’m up a rook” and just be happy to trade down to a winnable end game snd use their advantage to get a queen and win the game and not look for moves that increase the complexity but your style is much more fun than winning every time you’re up a rook. Haha. Anyway, your attacking ideas and thoughts are really good. “verrrrdy aggreeeeaaassive “as Teddy KGB from Rounders would say. You would be so high rated if you had a voice in your head that thought defensively and worried about what opponent could do that your other attacking voice could overrule most of the time but listen to just often enough to not give away the game.
That's a bad habit, there will be moments where h6 is a good move but playing it too early will cause you problems, not only are you wasting a move but you weaken your king
As a probably over 1000 rated player, I think you played the opening really well! You have a good understanding of where strong squares are, and you can recognize vulnerabilities in your opponent's position. What I think got you killed in this game (besides the missed mate in 1, and jump scare checkmate) was that you ended up trading all of your stronger minor pieces for your opponent's weaker ones. What I think happened was that your brain stalled in the middle game; you had a good position but didn't have any idea what to do with it. You started trading everything off and the development lead you established early on vanished. I recommend trying to focus on visualizing an endgame that you want then moving your pieces to achieve that board state. That will help you navigate the middle game without stalling or panicking. So ideas like "he didn't castle yet, let me try to force him to stay in the center with my bishops then trade off the center pawns to expose his vulnerable king", or "all of his pieces are on the queen's side, so lets fuck up his king's side". Actually, never mind. I think I'd recommend ChessPage1's golden rule as the most important thing to work on: Do not blunder.
I'm to cheap to pay for more than one review a day so I usually just play one game a day, win or lose. It helps with the tilt. One habit I have is always giving my King a escape opening from backrow attacks. That was taught to me through many loses back when playing my dad. You're really enjoyable to listen to, and I can relate to your playing as well.
They call it simplifying, the moment you have a point advantage, every equal trade of pieces is advantageous, the more so the worse you are at chess. It means the game will end sooner, and there'll be less room for error. You can also think of every doubled pawn as half a point. At 2:34, you should've captured the knight with the bishop (they double a pawn), then the bishop with the knight, castled and there'd be very little for your opponent to do.
i agree once went from 600 to high 700 (like 780 smt) i was like finally improving : D the next fcking day im think i answered to the call of the void cuz in magically at high 400s. IN ONE DAY. IN 24HRS. I. ME WITH 780ISH ELO. WENT FROM "finally, i might have developed by 3rd braincell : )))" to playing russian roulette with my braincells and only tht one shitcell that eat gras when i was 4 survived. but then the next day im back to some how beating nelson once (1-12) but still i did. yay.
Mind playing a game with me? I think I might be in the same boat as U rn I got new acc and I'm in the 700s that's a huge jump from 300 But so far I'm winning some games and losing some I might be able to maintain myself in the 700s
That's actually one of his best traits though. He gets these moments and flashes of brilliance that show he's got potential to go much higher. But it's a flickering little flame and finicky and as a scrub like me there's still plenty of other weaknesses or intermittent blindness syndrome that somehow afflicts all lower rated players lol.
Chocked on my water from that checkmate 💀💀💀💀💀💀
Me too 💀
your opponent ended with over 14 minutes on their clock...
man that checkmate jumpscared me
Missed the mate in one 😢
I started hyperventilating when I watched that happen 😭
Devastating to witness
i really enjoy your videos, you're very relatable and i feel represented as someone struggling in lower elo chess. much love!

It seems like the major mistake below 1000 is just not looking at the big picture on the board.

At this point I just move my h pawn after I castle just in case. Bank rank mates are a real risk!

@@david2134 I’m like 800. I hear you but I blunder back rank mate more than my opponents can capitalize on my weak pawn

I felt so bad listening to your convoluted checkmate plan for an entire minute completely missing the mate in 1 😭
My brother in Christ, why you went for that knight when you had a mate in one on the board?
Really stupid question. Obviously, he didn't see it. At this level that's a tricky checkmate to spot
Yeah, he realized
Nothing tricky about rook checkmating a king thats blocked by its own pieces. Signed, 500 elo
@@pawedziedzic3250 The 'tricky' part is the pin
What did you expect?

Be careful magnus. he's coming for you
Is no one gonna talk about the 97.2 accuracy with 33 moves when he shows his streak
I just checked his profile and dude seems suspicious, most of his games are 90 above accuracy and with some 80 above.

The desk banging killed me.....
4:58 you have Re8#
He says it in the video..
And this is why you don't comment before finishing the video
That queen capture was a jump scare
That's why before going to rapid matches, I practice with engine to make sure I'm in a right mind or not.
I mean he loses ELO so he’s the perfect person with the most expertise on this matter
I always tilt even after a year of chess and 1950elo (almost 2000 but, well, tilt).
That gambling personality to build back ELO is real 😮💨
Bro thinks he's Hikaru
(He is)
as a 2000+ player, I really enjoyed this video for its humor and the intriguing game analysis
as a 200 gotham viewer "there is another person playing chess on the other side of the computer"
Goated video, goated advice
I was 200 elo when I first saw this channel, now I’m 600 as well 💀 great content though still love it
04:28 is proof why bro is still 600
His rating is on the screen also
bro i screamed and am in office😭
You had mate in one at 4:26
I thought the whole point of the move Qd5 was to get a M1 if he does move the rook the way U wanted
Yes, it happens. You forget rules and it costs you. I once saw gothamchess say "oh i forgot that pawn could move" and i related to that
lol i was thinking ab the checkmate when you were in the position, you almost had it too, but your queen was on a detour. We should play
😭tell this to Hikaru
What are you doing to get better? (And how much do you know about chess?)
Trading a good knight for a bad bishop was a mistake I think
Gotta always leave some room for that king. I sit around the same elo
these are really fun to watch as someone rated 300 lol
Damn, I felt this so hard.
5:04 rook E8, isn't that a mate in 1?
Yeah instead of Qa8
Me when i chess
4:17 Instead of that, if he blocks with the rook, Re8# is much better :)
EDIT: Ah you mentioned it at the end
Realist chess content ever
best chess youtbuber
After he blocks the check with his rook you can just backrank him with your rook tho
Watch out for a tactic at 1:00 - you take on b5 but after that he can play Qa5 check and win your horse
very good point to look for those tactics, in this case tho he could block with the horse at c3

Sorry did comment n middle of video o thought u didn't notice that move but u did 😂
5:00 can’t you just move the rook to e8 and that’s checkmate?
