This is SO helpful. I have watched your training type videos, however, seeing you solve a puzzle like this is really really helpful. I’ve been getting stuck so many times and ready to give up on puzzles with SMH. I would rate this as a medium puzzle. Question : how do you copy the puzzles into the website you use to notate centre and corner candidates ?
Your animations are great. Makes it easy to follow you. You pointed out the 9’s along column 1 making a pointing pair but seemed to miss the 1’s in row 6 and 7’s after that. I will see those commonly in NYT hard.
This was not a hard puzzle, but with only 23 givens it was rated hard...not because it would require advanced techniques or strategies. I think NYT just took the easy way of categorizing the puzzles. It seems to be the lazy way a lot of people rate puzzles. Of course they won't say "lazy"...they will say "efficient". Reminds me of my son! LOL 😍😍
Took me 31 minutes. I went slightly further with the Snyder Notation, then had the app fill in pencil marks and started looking for pairs and triples. I prefer the logic you used to find the solutions much more than the way I did it, so, there is still some learning for me. I agree about this puzzle not being that hard. I really like your teaching method on these Sudoku puzzles. Thank you!!
It took me 41 mi utes but I finished. I will watch the video again and give it another try. You look places that I don’t think of. That is what I need improvement on, where to look. Thanks again!
@@pbj4241 That's great! This is after all a "hard" puzzle. The more puzzles you do, the more your brain will see things. I missed a few things myself in this puzzle while I was following other clues. And sometimes I forget to go back to a cell after I've filled in another cell that effected it. But the logic is always fun no matter how long it takes! Thanks for the feedback and comment, and I hope you continue enjoying the satisfaction of solving a puzzle! Practice makes Progress.
Hi she was looking to see which number was missing in the column above where she later placed the 6, and likewise the number that was missing in the row in which the 6 was placed. Hope this makes sense.
I'm slowly catching on. Watching these definitely helps. Thanks
My favorite instructor by FAR.
thank you so much, that means a lot!
Until I came across your videos I had never heard of the Snyder method. Now it's automatically the way I think and ouzzles have gotten a lot easier.

Thanks Smart Hobbies, sometimes I miss things as I see other things. I appreciate your comment!

I was able to solve the puzzle in 30 minutes, using pencil and paper.

Thanks plcmms, I appreciate the kind word and bravo for finishing it in 31 minutes!
Nice puzzle, please use a different colour for the digits you discover.
I agree with you. The puzzle didn't appear to be that hard but it's always nice following along with you. Now to go solve it.
Thanks PamB, I appreciate the comment! Let me know what you think solving it on your own?

What is this site called
I'm curious what is your name? I am really enjoying and learning from you. Thank you.
Not among the very easiest I have had, but still relatively easy for a NY Times Hard. I needed about 20 minutes to do it notation free.
It sounds easy but it was hard for me but I will try more .thanks
Keep practicing....and have fun with the challenge!
How do I search for her other videos?
Touch in learn something channel. Other videos u will get
From Lima, Perú. I just made it.
Solve the problem of toughest sudoku
👍
OK
Can’t grasp at 21:12 the placement of the 6. I would have also pencilled in a 6 between the 9 and the 8. This game is too baffling for me I guess.
