- In this video I explain a method to stop blundering your pieces in chess. I use it all the time, and I think everyone else should too, especially in the lower ratings. This is episode 2 of my speedrun to 2000 and in this episode I'm rated 500. Hope you enjoy the video :)

I’m 1700 and you will blunder your pieces no matter what, the trick is to not blunder before your opponent
It’s not who makes the first blunder, it’s who makes the last - hikaru
@@joallen2004 i never said that - hikaru
@@alexpace5491im not hikaru -not hikaru
@@alexpace5491 he actually said that, but worded it differently
@@literallyagalaxy7789 I was just joking bro but thanks for the info
It's amazing how she's still explaining her thought process with only second left on the clock.
I was stressing the whole video watching the clock
Yeah that gave me so much damn anxiety I could hardly watch! 😆
Me too. Kept watching clock
Anna Cramling is a Fide Master, she could have started the game with 5 seconds on the clock and have been fine.
@@eveeellam995 A little chuckle from Me, though I believe U. Do You think Anna was trying to say shenanigans?

yeah.. i am uneducated player and i took all that in... like you wrote.
thanks
I love your enthusiasm. You acted like you were opening a birthday present.
This 500 played way better than me lol
Omg Evan, I am your best fan. I have learnt so many tricks from you
Theres no way a yoyo content creator just commented. Make a godspeed vid with angel2up now !!1!2 1
In fairness part of the example requires not to initially play the most challenging lines. Only be super solid. But yes, they did play well.
I just started playing today on ranked matches. I played about 20 games and had quite a few tough matchups with 500-700 ratings. I'm no master though so what would I know, LOL
This is the calmest person I have ever seen playing on 10 seconds
Fr
ikr
I'm getting major anxiety watching her remember "shenanigans" with 10 seconds left on the clock
First time discovering your videos just now...
Clear, simple, logical explanations, and your enthusiasm for the game makes me want to play more! Keep up the good work 👏
I was getting hearth attacks watching annas time 😃😃, while she was happily explaining
Flames shooting from the fireplace?! 😄
@@lakesidelivin The fact that nobody made this joke in 2 months saddens me lol
but you don't actually know how many tries she did before uploading this video ))) nowadays videos are not totally trustable
@@kurakeekookuku1808 huh
But how is it possible? Her time went back and forth.
The opponent played ridiculously well for a 500!
Probably another youtuber making a video on how to beat 500 rated players
I feel like rn there are almost more fake 500 players than real ones :D
It was another speedrun account 😂
There is a huge difference between 500 in rapid and 500 in blitz. In rapid 500-rated players often play some random moves at the beginning while in blitz at this level they know thier openings pretty well. I am myself 500 in blitz and 1100 in rapid.
Danya’s new speedrun account probably
Thank you so much for explaining everything so clearly as you progress in the game. Really great content and much appreciated
Shenanigans! :) This is an awesome video - thank you. I've never played chess before but recently started watching some competitions in New York as they came up on my UA-cam feed. I saw you absolutely crushing the competition, and I'm excited to see this explanatory video. I may be way too old to begin playing now, but it's enticing, nonetheless. Thank you for the great teaching and explanations! I look forward to watching more of your content and seeing how much I can learn.
Rumor has it, when Anna's family poses for photos, they say "chessss"
We actually do 😂😂
Hahahahahahahaha I laughed
@@AnnaCramling 🤣
lol
@Anna Cramling what a schacker
I"ve come to the realization that even if I stop blundering my pieces, I will still find creative ways to lose.
get gd
Don't give credit to yourself. It's your opponent finding creative ways to win.
@@danielyuan9862 Sometimes that's more accurate. Sometimes it's a mutual effort.
Thank you Anna, this has been a great help. I didn't realize the fundamental mistakes in my game and watching you play let me see what to do, especially strengthening my center. I'm surprised that in all my studies of tactics, etc. I was missing these basics. This makes my immediate goal of rising above 900 easier and less mind taxing.
Thank you Anna!! Your ability to communicate your knowledge and ideas clearly with great enthusiasm makes your videos not only very valuable but fun to watch!! And the word you were searching for is shenanigans! 😊
Been stuck between 400 to 500 for months. After watching this I'm now 600+ and still climbing. It's exactly what I needed, just have to not try anything clever and wait for the opponent to blunder
Nice! Do you still play? What's your rating now?
@@rainakreeger whenever i see these types of comment , i am also excited to see how is their progress going. sadly most of them just leave chess due to rage or lose interest :(
hi btw can i ask your rating ?😊 i am just curious
@keshavrana1040 yeah.... I'm a little sad about that as well. I'm kind of a beginner but slowly improving. I used to be above 600 but then i stopped for like a year or more and now I'm around 500. But theses types of videos are super helpful and I'm more mindful of my games. What about you?
@@rainakreeger i mean 2022 not 2023
but i left chess for almost an year i guess so .. u can do the math
the single most informative video I have seen in a long while. Teaches opening, middlegame and endgame. You should do a course like Levy. Naturally gifted at imparting knowledge, Anna!
Should thank her parents, they've instilled the passion and knowledge.
@@JacomusBlack Yeah, Anna's nothing but a figment of her parents' imagination.
@@ClintonDawkins that's not as clever as you think it is...
@@JacomusBlack I'm crying over your internet judgment.
@@ClintonDawkins strange pawn you watch...a fat man wanking and crying...oh you've not turned the monitor on yet W⚓
It's very enjoyable AND educational to not just play through a game explain along the way but, to hear the variations and the whole thought process for each move is an even better way to learn!
Thanks for sharing!
Subbing for more content like this.
You covered so much material so quickly! Total control! You are a great teacher!
Wow! This is a terrific video Anna!! You have opened my eyes to how to play chess as a beginner!! Now I know how to make good moves! I hope you make a few more videos like this one. Thanks a bunch!!👍
Anna’s videos are always so instructive for choosing the right strategies
i have 1970 in rating and the way you can explain this to beginners is amazing! good job especially since some of the things are hard to explain to beginners
Wow so calm about the clock, last minute or two made me soo anxious. This video is super helpful! Clear, simple and highly informative, thank you!!
I love your very principled yet simple approach to chess. You're helping me a lot.
On castling: The most important principle in my mind when it comes to castling is to not open up the center if your king is still in the center. Castling early often solves this, but it helps to understand the key principle behind it. Grants you greater flexibility. You may for example find a benefit in deciding where to castle _after_ you know where you opponent has castled.
you can play more agressive early if you castle later aswell
Thank you, i have wondered about this
Anna a superb video and not really oversimplified but very practical! I am a 1500-1600 player and SO many games in that range are also decided by a single loss of a piece. Often it's not an obvious hanging piece but the result of a modest combination; then the rest is straightforward. I'm going to explore your other videos intended for amateurs like this who want to improve their game and rating. Also your enthusiasm is so infectious! It demonstrates well how learning can be fun!
That was brilliant to watch. I liked how you were explaining your tact and practising it, and showing the realness of your underlying principle. You were right! I'll have to give that a try, and I should definitely watch more of your educational videos . Thank you 🙂
Brilliant chess teaching, Anna! More like this please.
13:00 shenanigans. Thanks for the lesson. I wanted to be able to play at a low level on my cell phone at least and no more, since I don't have hours to devote.
I just started playing chess and have had some difficulties improving, I love your videos and this one was really helpful Anna!
Great video with some awesome advice, Anna! You are a natural, clear teacher. I will be watching many more and learning so much. Thank you!
Your enthusiasm is exactly what I needed after 2 draws and 2 losses today.
Anna...I adore you. Energetic and you explain things so well. You seem like such a great teacher. You probably don't do private lessons/coaching by chance do you? I've been playing for 10 years and I really want to take my game to new levels. And I've exhausted my own self learning and seem stuck.
Either way, love ur vids. Keep up the great content
This was great! The game didn't take very long and yet we were able to experience the opening, middle game and end game seeing how you defended your pieces while still attacking. Thanks!😀
One of your best videos, Anna. It's helpful to hear how you think through the game. I'm going to keep watching this series.
I love end game play. Such pure Chess. Keep the analysis going. You’re becoming a favorite in things to watch on UA-cam.
Always both informative and entertaining. Thank you, Anna!
These videos are extremely helpful. I know how to move pieces around, but know bugger all about actual strategy. I am now beating online chess games (at the second from lowest level), which I was never able to do before. Thanks Anna!
Thank you for showing and explaining during a game. That helped me a lot. Would like more of it!
Very skillful talking while under time pressure! And thanks for the good advice.
Very helpful. A good reminder to not overextend your position unless there is a tactic.
Awesome video Anna. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and tactics with us!
That was really informative. Great video, thank you!
That first 500 really played that well... Unbelievable. Better than people double their rating.
There are players rated 1000+ in longer games but only 500 in blitz because they're new to blitz.
@@megalodon1726 I started 700 in blitz now im 1000 after a month.
Tactics were not great for the opponent but nevertheless played very well for 500. I think Anna was a little surprised that there was no major blunders made only minor ones.
Is it not so that leaving your queen unprotected is a blunder in tactics if not a blunder vis-a-vis moves?
@@RingsLoreMaster It doesn't really matter if your queen is protected because even if you are forced to exchange it for a lesser piece you are losing.
@@leechap3 she was threatening it with her Queen though, which is what allowed the pin. If the queen was protected, the pin wouldn't have been a problem since it trades equal material
@@TunaBagels That makes sense.
Why not the other player has more than 500 points of rating?
Thanks for the insights, Ms. Cramling. I will keep keep those lessons learned on my head and hopefully win more 500 rated games.
this has helped me improve so much, thank you Anna!
The commentary is very helpful. Thank you
Anytime I blunder my queen,I try to convince myself it's a "botez gambit" and I'm a genius
Hahaha I feel you
I feel like a genius when I realize I've just played Botez Gambit Declined
Legit I think to myself "Hikaru would legit literally win in this exact position. So there is hope"
Them my opponent goes on to l remind me that I'm not grandmaster Hikaru Nakamaru.
Woah. I have been just really getting into chess and scouring books, tutorials, apps, everything...... for basic fundamentals to get started. This might be the best I have seen. You are a phenomenal teacher, and your passion for chess is infectious.
Wonderful video and great explanations on core concepts. Very well done !😊
I believe shenanigans is what you we’re looking for! Great videos!
shenoonigans
I'm a new subscriber with a 650-700 rating. I tend to play too aggressive. I found this video very informative. Please continue to provide content for beginner players and create a playlist.
There is a playlist
This has really helped my thinking and hence my play. Thankyou Anna.
Great video. Learned a lot from you today. I started to view the game in whole different perspective... it's amazing the quality of the game!!
Shenanigans is the word you were looking for. 😁
Also, if you blunder don't rage quit! I blundered away my queen early and came back and won. Stay the course. Adapt and overcome.
Are you the bugger who beat me last night?? 😂
At the very least, wait and see if they actually take it. The last time I blundered my queen, my opponent didn't take it and proceeded to blunder their king two moves later.
That happened to me today!
I literally just blundered my queen on a king side mate attack and didn't quit, clarified position, and then won on time
Thanks a bunch! I really learned a lot and I’ll pay more attention to this from now on.
This is fantastic! What a huge help, really well-taught, thanks!!!!
Me: Checks if everything is protected and makes a move
Opponent: Takes the now unprotected queen
Me: Damn
I always blunder my king
what lmaoooooooooo
absolutely amazing how she can play and explain at the same time
Really good video for me as a beginner chess player. Did actually learn so much from this game. Thank you!
Anna: London is a great defense at this level
Andrea: >:(
At 1800 I've finally determined that blunders and endgames are the only two things keeping me from the USCF Expert title
Loved the way you were about to explain your thought process as you were playing a game. Too many videos show games that have been previously played and just zoom through the game so fast that it's hard to follow. And their explanations are also done very fast. Id really enjoy seeing more of your games this way.
ive learned a lot in this video. love the way you explain it. Not even feel pressured about the game.
That 500+ rated player played better than 1100 guess the elo 😂
❤❤❤❤
I would blunder every move if I was to play face to face game against Anna 🤗🤗😁😁
This right here. Finally I see how to progress. Thank you for taking the time for this vid Anna!
"The trick is to never put your pieces in squares where they are undefended". This is the trick guys. 🤣
This trick makes it very difficult to win an endgame with not much material. 😁
I can't concentrate as she's too beautiful!!!!
So helpful! Thank you for the education, well done!
Thanks, I'll try this- love these basics!
Good video Anna. Thank you for taking the time to explain these things. Chess is a hard game, sure helps to learn these things to be able to play better.
You explained everything very well. I definitely learned something. Thank you.
I remember watching this and finding the things explained highly valuable, because you know, you need an explanation for why your games aren’t going as you would want. This content helped me mentally with understanding as well as by offering a solution. Excellent content for everyone trying to improve. Thanks again for this content Anna 😊
Learn so many things from this video than hours of other tutorials! I have been learning and watching so many videos but it's too overwhelming for me. But this one is precise and informative as well as fun !
Remind me to watch this again and again and again. It is so educational for my level : ) Thanks again : )
This was really awesome. Love the commentary. Thanks!
Your tip about never leaving a piece undefended is ssoo helpful. It has given me fresh perspective. Thanks
Wow this was such a great vid! Some of the clearest instruction I've seen online. I'm struggling around 500 right now and I have a strong sense that some of these principles will really help push me up to the next level. thank you for your work! Subscribing!
Very helpful and informative video. Thank you Anna.
I learned a lot, I hope you have more lessons for beginners in your archives!
Thanks Anna. This really helped me. Started a couple.of month ago.. worked my way up into the seven hundreds then lately I have been getting beat down... This really helped me today since I watched this morning!!❤🎉
Also, you are my favorite chess UA-camr!
This was a great video, i often tend to overthink chess positions, when really blundering pieces is my main problem in most games i play LOL
Thank you Anna, very informative. Well done. 🙂
Really helpful video Anna! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!
You did a great job explaining while on low time - that was very well done.
I love your enthusiasm. You inspire my playing. You are amazing. I enjoyed the video with your mom acting like a beginner in new York I think it was. 😀
Thanks for this one! I really appreciated the simple focus on “(un)protected positions”, it was great to just have one idea to think about while studying the game.
Thank you so much for the great instructions. I just subscribed.
I am so glad that I watched your video. You are exciting, engaging, energetic and entertaining. And… very Educational!!! I am going to replay your game to create the PGN to study with your explanation as I go. You explained your strategy in the most logical straight forward way and playing the London, my choice as well, I was so pleased to see you win and that apparently was unscripted, demonstrating that the London is a strong system. I have watched dozens of videos and yours is the absolute Best!!
Thanks and I will look at other videos on your channel.
I watched tons of chess videos, this was one of the very best ones. Thank you! :)
I sincerely think your advice is great. Thank you for sharing and best to you.
This video is so good. I played chess a long time ago for fun, but never thought about protecting my pieces at all time. Very good advice !
Lo de cortar al rey me pareció una lección fenomenal, no sabía ese movimiento tan sensato y útil. Sin dudas mejoró mis finales! Gracias Anna!
Super video! Thanks for sharing your huge knowledge Anna!
Thanks Anna, you explain this stuff so well!
