    From video recaps, I feel like many high level players lose games by playing too offensive and not defending their pieces. But I guess they need to, if they want to win. It's not like how we play at 900-1000 elo, where if you don't blunder anything and play solid, the opponent will self-destruct at some point and blunder a piece so you can win easily.

    What I find incredibly hilarious is that fine line between an absolutely absurd looking idiotic lower ELO move and an absolutely absurd looking brilliant GM level move.
    I, an 1150, saw that position where you needed to push the G pawn as white for winning chances and thought, “Man, I’m only an 1100. There’s no way I’m gonna find the fancy mate. Im probably just going to end up blundering my second queen if I try something top level. I’m just gonna I push this G pawn out of the way of the Knight and Rook attack and then pray.”
    But that makes sense in a way. I feel like, as a novice, you tend to make a lot creative and/or ambitious moves that lose you the game on the spot. To start to climb higher, you need to eliminate those ambitious moves, play more solid, and see the very precise moves you need to win. But how do you win when you get to the level where everybody is playing perfectly solidly? You gotta make ambitious moves again LOL rely on the noob strat except this time you find the absurd looking moves that are *GOOD* instead of the ones that lose you the game instantly!
    As an 1100, I would have never gotten to the position discussed and I would have probably lost the game even after playing that move in that position, but I found the move only because I’m an 1100 with no confidence and decided that moving a pawn out of danger and stalling for a turn was better than blundering my queen immediately and ending up becoming the next hit single from created from guess the ELO. “Queen D6, Queen D6. What the hell is that move? What do you think you’re doing? How do you hang a queen there?”

    Questionmark, watch the board on 22:18. Can't you just sacrifice the rook at this point (rd5). If black takes, then queen takes and you are putting pressure on the knight and the rook. If you move one of the two, the other one falls and you can't defend the knight due to the pawn on g4.
    If black doesn't take, well then you simply won a pawn and you can move your rook anywhere, the double attack remains with a discovered attack with the queen.

    At 22:24 I think the idea behind ..Rg2 is to prevent Qxd5, because black now has ..Rg1+, Ke2 (only move) Nc3+, forking the queen on d5.

    G4 is a quiet, brilliant move. You just push a pawn out of danger. Tho it's a hard move to make, you can think it's a risk of losing it or it doesn't do much. It needs the calculation to make it worth it.

    I once won a classical game where I legit blundered a full piece in the middle game. I was 2100 USCF and my opponent was over 1900. He didn't make any obvious mistakes either.

    3:15 I really don't understand why black wouldn't go for this.. It's two doubled and isolated pawns, but white still have to take them. And white has a queen side just as bad as black, it has only one pawn there...

    • @robertotraverso4834

      In every endgame you'll be losing: if you hang on defending all the pawns (admitting that is even possible to defend all of them as they are so badly placed) you're gonna get a situation in which every single pieces you have will be stuck defending a pawn, and white will just have to slowly improve his position to the point that for you will be hard to even find a move, you'll get overwhelmed. So, you'll have to give up them and find some kind of active plan to hold on to a draw, but white, playing accurately will just have to pay a little bit of attention and will take measures. At the end he will be just one or two pawn up in an endgame, hence completely winning

      ​@@robertotraverso4834 Thanks, this clarify a lot. When I said that white still have to take them I was not thinking in hanging on to the pawns, but rather that white would have to waste a lot of moves to take them, while black could develop normally and achieve an equal position, if not better. But your comment focus on the endgame, and makes a lot of sense that black will be losing. If black loses all queen side pawns, and gets the B pawn from white, white is a clear pawn up.

    8:45 Pretty sure a pawn can take that rather than a knight. That knight would be just hanging

    Give Magnus the White pieces in that endgame. He would more than get revenge against Hans.

    This game shows what a bad trade can do to change the outcome of this game, White just kept trading until it costed him the positioning of the pieces and eventually lost the game.
    A rule of trade is that you don't have to trade if your attacked piece is protected by another piece, you only have to trade when it benifits your positioning or if it leads to a double attack on your piece.
    Just take my advice as a beginner in chess at 640 elo with a grain of salt, i like most of you try to improve my chess tactics and mastering the trading side of my game helped me tremendously to win games. Great Video as always Levy, i'm looking forward for the next "Guess the Elo" series .. i'm sure it will be fun
