'the bishop on bad is g7' ist already a timeless Classic 😜😜
Great video as usual! My take away is to avoid misevaluating static considerations that don’t apply because the position is dynamic in nature (ie the pawns are fluid).
That being said the whole g7 bishop is bad but now the b7 bishop is super strong is very unobvious at my amateur 1600 level
Yes agreed.
Sometimes it seems like strong players work out the tactics first, and based on the outcome of the tactics they then decide which pieces are good and which are bad.
Nice video :)
I'm about the same rating as the student in the first example, but my assessment was very different; I'm glad to see how closely my thought-process aligned with yours in the video. At a glance, my first candidate move was ...e5, but my purpose was different. The g7 bishop is a crucial defender of my dark-squares around the king, so I first looked at interference moves to preserve my bishop. I liked the look of the pawn on e5 because of the space advantage, but then I decided to look at other candidate moves because I'd prefer to keep the e-pawn on e7; advancing it to e6 or e5 would make the f6 dark-square even weaker.
The next candidate move I had was ...Nd4 and I quite liked this move a lot. I was more like "yeah, that's the move to play here." I admit that ...Bb7 wasn't even on my radar; it wasn't even a candidate move. I liked ...Nd4 for the same reasons this video shared, but I will also comment that despite me playing ...Nd4 if this was a position of mine, I did like the pawn on e5 slightly more than first thought because once you pointed out the presence of the bishop pair in the video, then my mind instantly went to highlighting their weakness. We both have a DSB, but that means I typically want to accentuate the LSB and place my central pawns on dark-squares. We have a pawn on c5 and another on e5 looks good from this perspective.
This. This is good advice. I found the knight move but yes that pawn move does make a lot of sense and i wouldn't have thought to play it
Thanks for the great update on this complex lesson.
Very instructive video, thank you for that. I make some of those mistakes too, without even noticing
I am also guilty of cutting off calculations one ply too short, where the next move is crucial. Cogitus interruptus.
Trying to reminder which book told me that pawns are just extensions of your bishops.
Hi coach. Thank you for taking the time to make these videos for us. You're an excellent teacher imo.
Thanks! , glad you like the content!
5:35. I'm concerned that you might have overlooked that the knight is attacking the bishop if you allow white to take the c5 pawn. White's queen protects f3.
Great lesson, thanks!
Amazing concepts, thank you for yout videos, I´ve learn about calculation here with you.
Gracias! glad you like my content!

Great advice. Thank You!
Love your videos

Really good advice
The Doctor is in the house!
So what do I do when I’ve identified 3 good things and 3 bad things about a move and all of them seem to be equally valuable? This is where the single reason mindset develops cause you just don’t know what is relevant and what isn’t
So we need to work on identifying what is relevant and what is not. No one said chess was meant to be easy! :)
Thx.
Guilty as charched.
When next are you going to stream on UA-cam? Also, can you make a video about how to take advantage of colour complexes? For example when an opponent pushes all their pawns into that hedgehog like format, I feel like it's bad and I should be "taking advantage of the light/dark squares" but I'm not really sure what that means....specifically with the knight. This comment wa going to be longer but as I tried to explain more I think I answered my own question so maybe I really just need to start playing longer games and thinking more...but why do that when I can just ask the best chess coach on UA-cam 😅
Is it just me who finds that the positions Andras says are obviously good for black (or white) are not at all obvious? I don’t play that regularly but I’m not exactly low rated compared to most players.
no, the hope is that they become (more) obvious after training and listening to the explanations. If they were obvious, the mistakes would not happen, and the video would be moot.
I thought like this but the more I play and improve the more intuitively these evaluations come
Superbe lesson. It's so easy to see ghost.
Obviously, he believed he could crush his opponent, so he allowed himself to play less accurately. This type of chess players are the easiest to defeat, among those who are stronger than me, they are dragged down by their bullet game.
My first choice is “e5”， because I don't want to lose the Bishop or the Knight. Bad bishop? It's better than nothing, after the Rook move out, the bad bishop will be thrown into the battlefield. And almost all of my flexible tactics rely on knights.
“Nd4”，because it's not my idea,I doubted it. But after accepting your point of view, I realized that it indeed better, and I am willing to change my mind.Thank you~
Ya I know im bad at chess. LOL
This video is one week too late coach, I lost a crucial game in a tournament last Thursday because I made this exact mistake twice! I rejected one line because 'a pawn was hanging' and stopped looking there (missing my counter-attack). Another line of my opponent I dismissed because it required him to give up a strong bishop for my knight. I was shocked he played this anyway; since he gained 2 tempi in the proces.
