A good thing about old chess books written before "the age of engines" is that the openings are chosen because they are practical to play and pose opponents chellenging questions, not because they are top moves suggested by engines. It's from these opening variations that you can actually learn the ideas of an opening, even if they can be dubious because of some ridiculous engine refutation.
I’m not saying computers ruined chess, but they definitely revolutionized the way we play forever. It’s calming though because new metas and new ceilings are being achieved any way. And style of play like this is still effective because it’s so understudied.
I don’t think chess will ever be solved, and that’s incredible.
That book came in the first chess set i had as a kid in the 70s
The beauty of chess is how fast something can work or fall apart with little ability to see it before hand.
Top tier. Do we need anything more than Nelson being really excited about a slightly older book?
sdsad
Old chess books are neat, especially before the age of computer chess. I don’t blame him for getting excited.
Many years ago I looked at a chess openings book from the late 1800s. There were so many variations that were no longer being played, but which were really difficult to counter.
That's basically where the Sicilian Defense came from. A rediscovered untranslated chess book from way before the time it became relevant. Funny how that can work.
Make a video to show us the old style.🎉
That book came with a plastic chess set my dads parents bought for him and my uncle in the 70‘s. That was my very first book on chess, and it’s what got me to steer playing the KG
Game 2 was crazy!!!
Game 3 for 3 . Game 3 and a triple fork, OUCH!!❤
That looks like the book I learned chess from when I was 9 years old.
Nice find. E.S. Lowe also produced some good chess sets and other games. 😀
Ah yes, the old days, when 6 was 7
Back before seven ate nine
Nice, more tricks to add to our arsenal of tactics!
This book was packaged with my very first little plastic chess set from the E. S. Lowe company, which manufactured a number of different inexpensive chess sets in the 1960's and 70's. I learned playing chess from this book and about how to play those basic openings. It is a resource that young beginning players could still learn from even today.
Incredible find.. Thank you for sharing😊
Love the enthusiasm! And, again, best chess channel Nelson!!!
Thanks Nelson I really like your teaching style. I've learned a lot from you. My older brother had that chess book when we were growing up!
Brilliant! Absolutely brilliant. These are so cool.
My biggest problem is remembering such openings and traps. I can never keep these tricks in the back of my mind and often forget them when the chance to use them presents itself. Any tips on how to better learn and internalize these moves?
Fun stuff. It was enjoyable to see how enthusiastic you were about this book and the resultant wisdom.
Game 7 the perfect opening and finish!!
The number 7 in the number of perfection. I can see why you enjoyed these games. Another great video!!
Wait a second, his name is also nelson Lopez
Thala for a reason
Great stuff! Thanks as always.
I have been following you since 3 yrs i absolutely love your videos and i have learnt so much
Wow great games and moves... thanks a lot for the traps .. I am trying to learn more and this really helps...
best 4 dollars spent
Great games! Thank you for sharing.
Super cool games! Great lessons.
#2 is a classic "oh no, my queen"
What a great $4 find! I play the Panziani as white pretty often, and that crazy rook sacrifice into checkmate blew me away. I would fall for that 100 times out of 100 if not for this video.
Game #1 was great. Loved all the trap on trap possibilities ❤❤❤
I'm new to chess but your videos have helped me learn a ton and get into it even more!
Those were awesome games!
the second trap I have actually seen in a video
Nice stuff, learned a lot
Awesome breakdown ❤❤❤
Personally I thought that was excellent, I really enjoyed it (especially with your unique way of explaining the moves). My only gripe is how to remember where/when you played these games. Is there a library of your games/moves/tricks that I could use to find what I am looking for ? (I would like to practice some of the openings before I play a match, but how do I find them ?)
As always, thank you so much for re-igniting my passion for chess !!
Great little book, thanks!!
Game 5 incredible. They keep getting better and better WOW 👌
Muy bueno!, magnífico!! Me encanta estos juegos!!
Thanks for sharing!
Got a fantastic old chess puzzle book from a charity shop, a great source for these types of books...
I have that same book it was my first chess book back in the early 1970's. Did not know if I would find mine but a quick check of my very old chess set and there it was. It is the book I learned the Ruy Lopez opening. Thanks for this piece of nostalgia.
Clever! Well explained too
forget the Gotham book, that ancient chess book Neslon bought is all i need!
game 7 - ok what if bishop doesnt take knight e5? even bishop & knight are trade off, what if the doesnt go for fork check with king & pawn?
Please don’t refer to books from my childhood as ancient!
Whatever you say old man.
Scramble will soon replace Chess. You can already play Scramble against Stockfish.
LOL
I guess we have an ancient viewer there.
Lol i literally thought it was going to be from 1720 or something. Learning chess from someone who doesn't even understand time lol. I'm out of here haha
My first chess set included that book! I learned a great deal from it as a novice player (about 1970). I wish I had that book for my grandson who is learning to play now.
Interestingly I had just come across most of these games in a free Chessable course named "Smithy's Opening Fundamentals". Good stuff, loved these games.
Do a video on how to read old chess notation please- I bought a book but couldn't understand it.
You could use that ancient reference Wikipedia--did you check their page on Descriptive Notation?
You mean like KB (King's Bishop) to QK4 (Queen's Knight 4) instead of Bb4? Capablanca's book uses that notation which is very weird considering modern notation has been in use before that book. Maybe you can find version with algebraic notation somewhere?
neat video, thx for sharing! ❤
I loooved that ponziani double rook sac! 😮❤❤❤ Craziness! 😂
10:22 The move that I saw was Nd6. Which means the knight can take the queen next move because it's also a discovered check delivered by the bishop. Obviously not as good as checkmate, but I'm still pleased with myself for seeing this.
I was confused for a while. You see, Kd6 is king to d6. Knight use the letter N.
@@user-ti4di1uh2dI know and it's not the first time I've made that mistake. I'll put it right now.
Coolest Pacman console in the back !
Game 2 is known as legals mate. It can happen in various openings when one side or the other doesn't develop their knights. Game 3 has the old family fork, king, queen, and rook. It's the dream fork. Game 7 "development above all else"
Huge shout out to this channel, I just started playing chess about a month ago, I couldn't stay above a 300 to save my life until I came across this channel and I'm now approaching 400 thanks to you!
There are lots f games similar to these in the book by Pandolfini entitled 1000 Best Short Games of Chess❤
Just ordered this one! Thanks for the recommendation!
we need more
13:19 Sadly this move is illegal, exf3 is forced.
Nice sacrifices, how to know when its a good time to sack a piece? I am kinda stuck on 1400 elo
Really awesome video
Your lessons revive the art of chess.
Games 6 and 7 are both kings gambits if you are interested in those! I play that opening as white
Game 2 was crazy!!!
The best move against the Philidor Defense is d4
There seems to be a lot of super quick older games. What's changed? Why don't we get a ton of them nowadays? Why do modern games have to go on for hours? Great video, Nelson!
Thanks Nelson. I have actually won games with #1 and #3 at 1600 ELO. That book was a great find!
19:43 There's no way i guessed Bxc7 I was thinking it would distract the queen...
Felt like I was inside a GM mind,just one significant mistake turn to a check.some of this mistake I see my opponent making and am like ehh,no more😊
WOW I just mentioned my very old chess set in my previous post and I open my book and on page 95 is an advertisement for a Renaissance Chessman by E. S. Lowe (same as author) and that is my very old chess set.
Dambit
Gambit
I love yoooo....
I would gladly watch you analyze white and black paint drying on a wall. Your presentations are par excellence.
Nice, but lol, I tried to find a winning move in the last example for a whole hour, and didn't see it, of course because black does not have to accept neither bishop nor the rook sac... it is not forced line at all.
That's $4 well spent.
Imagine my surprise when I saw you with a book that I have on my shelf. Imagine my amusement when I heard you describe it as "ancient" ! 1955? I'm older than that book by 5 years.
An ancient book involving chess will include the older rules.
I had #6 many times when I was very low rated, people love to make pawn chains and ignore the danger :)
Book is cheap and worth a buy at £89.65!
2:55 can´t black also play d5 in this position? It prevents mate and has imediatly a double attack
Game 4 very interesting!!
Lowe may have been a man who made chess sets. The chessmen were made of plastic.
if you had a chance to look at that
He missed the En Passant!!
Those were all great and inspiring games!!! Too bad I can’t remember any of them even five minutes after watching this video!
2nd hand book stores are full of timeless chess books. Long forgotten games that offer so much insight into the game that a lot of modern players have never come across. It just hope I don't play any of the 1.9K viewers (to date) of this video :)
Game 6 nice!!
You don't wait quite long enough for me to pause the video.
Also in game 7 Bxc7 gave up white's advantage if black did not recapture the rook of f6. Instead white should have built up the pressure by moving the queen to connect the rooks and then developing the QR.
day 9 for asking nelson to beat nelson with just a queen and a bishop
C hess is such a noble game,
H ow it does the soul inflame!
E ver brilliant, ever new,
S urely chess has not its due;
S ad to say, ‘tis known to few!
From "A Complete Guide to the Game of Chess," H.F.L. Meyer, 1882.
Love the kings gambit❤❤❤❤❤
Ponziani was brilliant no lie💯
I used to have that book.
Maybe people would prefer the term "Vintage"...
Thats more correct. 😊
6:40 isnt that just 2 pieces for a rook and a pawn
I was born in 1995 and can confirm, we are ancient LOL 😂
Why is 6 afraid of 7? Because 7 8 9.
very nice traps
Uh oh, he thinks 1955 is "ancient".
if black played f6 queen didn, t get trap
Old, but quality!
That is the book I learned chess with. I was in 3rd grade at the time!
let me tell you, The game#5 was the best. I played many games and got this same position. It was devastating for my opponent. Thanks. the video was productive (rather i should say the book😃)
This video was more enjoyable than the last one.😏
By the way, there is an Egyptian Chess Player called Ahmed Adly who beaten Magnus Carlsen in 2006.☝🏻
Can you make a video about him?😎
Super cool
no d5 pawn starts?!?!?!?
I actually have that book on my shelf. :)
