That's awesome, I really hope you make the GM title. im trying to become an IM, 2200 at the moment, I stopped a few years for medical reasons, but now I'm back!
The road to GM is even harder than b4 since in this day and age so many players are grossly underrated In a country like China, many 2200s or even players below 2000s, are quite difficult to beat even for a 2400 It's just so easy to lose rating points But hard can also be a good thing if you manage to get it, it's going to be more rewarding. Good luck on your journey to GM!
YF chess where can I find solid opening theory about the Nimzo Larsen Attack? (I know its a system opening but even plans). Or maybe you could tell me where you find your repertoire information from? Anyway I love the content, keep it up

Hey! I just made it to 2000 elo and watched this video. I’m currently 17 and I started my journey around 3 years ago or so. My biggest win is against a 2300 elo. Do you think I’ll ever have a chance to become an IM or GM with the correct training at my current state?
Just so you know one of greatest chess writers and trainers Shereshevsky in a russian podcast said that he always believed than anyone with the right training can become a grandmaster. But now he actually believes there are methods to become a 2600 What surprised me that he said that you can become a grandmaster by studying endgamrs🤷
Very interesting! Not sure I fully agree as I know so many players who work hard but struggle to make it. Perhaps their training isn't right but you would think there would be more GMs if so
@@YFchess I guess when it comes to correct training it's about working on your weaknesses. When you analyze your games you have to understand in what types of positions do you play well and in what you don't. And so when you start playing try playing on your strengths. Also you have to play training games against stronger opponents, it's similar to building muscle if you lift light weights you won't become stronger. Now I'm not even a master at chess so I hope I didn't make it sound like I'm teaching you, but It's just my advice. Always play training games against stronger opponents and learn from players who are better. PS. Keep grinding bro💪
Is it possible for me to become a GM, im 16 and i reached 2100 in just a year of playing, i started somewhere last year april and im almost at 2200, i just have a prpblem with network thats holding me back

My sons age 7 & 9 are currently about 1500. With 3 hours of training daily + monthly tournaments, how big is their chance to become GM in 10 years ? Closer to 5% or 20% ?
That's great to hear! They are off to a good start. Difficult to tell at such an early age but if they have a passion for the game I'd guesstimate closer to 20% if they keep at it!
@@YFchess wow that is super high for 0.000016% population ! Thanks for the encouragement. Right now their skill fluctuates a lot, and sometimes they are bored. We hope to be consistent with training & tournaments, and reach NM in 4 years. Please make more chess videos, they definitely help !
@@goodlifebdg that's awesome. I definitely wouldn't have made IM with my parents' support and I'll forever be grateful to them. New coaching video just landed, I'll keep them coming!

9:16 I have been playing since Jan 2023(seriously since may 2023) and I’m rated 2100+ in blitz and rapid on cc. Do you think I could make it to FM?(if I put in the work)
Yes definitely! But will need to work hard on all parts of your game and keep playing lots. Over the board play is different too so start playing some in person tournaments if you can!

@@DariusCharlie quite possibly. Got to grit our teeth and get through it regardless!
Good luck yang fan! Brazil 2011 was my fav trip to date :)
Thanks Anthony! Hope you and family are well!
Came through Reddit !! All the best for GM TItle Brother .
@@DivyamGaming thanks bro!
Love the illustrations! My mid-term goal is to make 2000 elo and then push for CM (crap master 😂).
Much luck for you push
Thanks! Good luck with 2,000 and CM. You can do it!!
Good luck bro, ya earned a sub
Thanks for the sub bro!
As a person that is 1100 in over a year I don't have hope after seeing this video
Haha yea you got a long way to go seb!
Really nice video it puts into perspective how good you have to be to get a GM title
@thejuicymop8128 thanks Juicy! 1600 next, you got this!
Believe in you bro💪, i’m 15 currently and am 2000 online, I started a year and a half ago and am hoping to make NM or CM eventually
Thanks bro! You are not that far, can definitely do it. I would say set your goals higher and aim for IM!
@@YFchess np, Thanks🙏
Good luck! Regarding content, perhaps your study of openings and endgames?
Thanks! Gotta keep the openings secret but definiitely endgames and middlegames
I honestly just want to hit 2000! I dont know if it is possible so I set my goals small and try to improve 50 rating at a time haha
You can do it! Keep at it. Lots of tactics training will get you there
Become a woman, I've seen plenty of WGMs advertising themselves as GMs.
@@YFchess Yosha Iglesias is a WIM
Idk who you are but I'm rooting you to get GM
Idk who you are either but I really appreciate this! Thanks bro

2000 in just 3 years is great! For sure you got a great chance, as long as you work hard and focus on continuously improving
The quality of the video is outstanding, I believe that with enough work, even Gotham chess can become gm, if he can, anyone can
@godcomplexlynx thanks! I hope Gotham gets it, but even with a lot of work he's still got a lot more to do
@@YFchess 100% my comment was more of a dig on him then a compliment

@anymations2509 yes but you gotta work hard!!!
Becoming an Grandmaster takes too much of your time and because of religious reasons I only play it minimum 15 mins Max 1 hour
It definitely takes a lot of time!
What are the religious reasons?

你好，周大师，你的照片中，左一是韦奕吗，中间是丁立人，挨着你的是余泱漪，那左二是谁? 建议你把每个人的名字标到照片上，再发到你的视频中，这样更有利于传播！另外一张照片，你腿都翘到桌子上了，这张照片，你应该配一个时间，地点，赛事名称，第几轮，对手是谁，及对手的ELO，这样也更能准确传达信息！

@@YFchess 收到，谢谢，您认识王晨吗，他是我们湖北黄石的，他也是IM，好象是因为没有时间，缺少经费，也许是口罩原因，没法出国打比赛，因此一直没有升到GM，希望您与王晨加油，早日成为GM
