I know this may not be your most viewed videos, but it’s really informative and helpful Please don’t stop these kinds of videos they really help me learn
So much fun trying to sacrifice the queen! Apparently on the other end there was a similar IM/GM level opponent streaming on what to do when the opponent is repeatedly offering a queen trade 😂
That last game was pretty instructive and the opponent was actually pretty tricky. And guys please like the video Nelson is doing a great job here, we need more clicks!
This video deserves an award for best chess video.. It is pure art to push yourself into end games with nicely lined up pawns. Also amazing to see him knowing where to lose pieces. There are so many 'in between rules' being shared here 🎉
Peter is on a 117 game winning streak right now. Regardless of the levels you’re playing against that’s pretty awesome. Great work and love the channel.
Extraordinarily helpful and instructive content! Thank you so much for doing this. I’m learning a great deal from the series, especially this video as I needed to improve my endgame skills. Kudos to you man for for this fantastic series. I’ve been binching it for the past week now ❤
One thing I’d like to point out in the last game: white sacked the knight for (apparently) no gain. But, what it did, was minimize the chances of an accidental stalemate. This could also occur if white had a queen and bishop in an open endgame position. It also simplifies the mental calculations since you now only have only one major piece; the queen. And a queen and king vs. a lone king is a win. In other words, the minor piece is kind of a liability here.
Impatient opponent? Well, luckily there is always another one waiting! I am totally happy to spend hours watching until we find one who can manage to not quit before the endgame. It is absolutely time well spent!
Bruh, i love this guys videos, but i just feel sorry for those poor buggers that have to face a 2200 rated player, moreso someone who is deliberately making mistakes and still winning.
The last endgame didn't feel like 400 elo at all. Also, when I'm having fun by promoting multiple pawns, usually I make only one queen, and the rest are rooks: you still have easy ladder checkmate, but now the risk of stalemate is much lower. I think it also might be useful to give some tips on how to do the one-queen mate quickly (with 10 secs on the timer).
The slow approach and talking about different ideas is perfect for your puzzles videos which i love, for this ones i think you need a faster approach, just a suggestion.
My 2 cents: rather than blundering your pieces in an obvious way, I'd prefer to see you play "to the level" of the elo you're facing. Walk into forks or skewers and see if the opponent spots it. As you climb up the rating ladder, you can move on to more advanced tactics. The middle game can still be instructive as you effectively analyze it from the opponents perspective, and hopefully they punish you for one of those mistakes and you can move into an endgame that way.
i find lots of players at this level up to 900 are not really interested in end games. They want all out fight or nothing else and will just abandon or resign when you get to the end game. Also these people play 10 minute games but it's like they don't know there are other options to play 3 or 1 minute chess which is what they really want. Maybe just play the game to the end game and not talk until after the game.
nelson , i think maybe you should do a zig zag type of games where you try to win in the first, and then the next game you go to the endgame. I think it might be more useful that way
Appreciating the trim dude. I think the crew cut suits you as well. You have the same problem as me in trying to cover the thinning. I EVENTUALLY just embraced my balding and looked at myself like a fine wine ( was good to start with, them an awkward phase where I wasn't so good, then flourished into a new flavour) 😂
This happened with me and my opponent in a 1600 game. I was playing black and game started with 1. e4 e5 and white resigned coz I didn't played c5 as black 😂😂😂😂😂!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
This video gives me more ideas. You could let the subs decide a move and you could analyze it. Also wonder if these guys felt like they got trolled 😂 CM with 5 seconds left
How funny would it be for both players to be streamers trying to demonstrate an endgame, and each of them plays sub-100 chess until the endgame and then they both play bigbrain chess
29:05 why didn't you play rook e8? If the opponent got tunnel vision and kept pushing, they would lose a queen, and if they did notice it, well, you got a free tempo
thats pretty far fetched. to be under 600 elo, one would have to not even understand how pieces attack. that knowledge is not basic tactics or strategy; its in the rule book. i dont even understand how such low level examples can be used for "teaching" when the players havnt even read or comprehend the rules. hers a lesson... go read it or have someone read it to you. :D :D :D
I don't care for this style. As an intermediate player I got lots of ideas when you were playing at full strength. I loved it. This is deliberate bad chess and not really necessary. As the rating climb people will see real endgames.
Hi Nelson, re-viewing the rating climb, and it struck me here that one thing I think that You haven't covered yet, is how to attack/exploit the opponent's undefended pieces, I mean, they are usually easy to spot, but how to exploit it....? Also, I keep bumping into pawns being in the way for my maneuvering, either my opponent's defended pawns or my own misplaced, and I'm wondering, is there a way to plan pawn placement, or force pawn trades, to open up the position....??? Any way, wish You a good recovery from Your recent problems, You probably know, but we all love You for all that You are and give....!!!
Love your content Nelson! I’m curious? What would you do if someone reported you for cheating because you were taking to long and you had someone email that you were doing leg exercises because of the gout? But they’re subscribers convinced him you were cheating? Crazy thought huh? Could he have been making rice?
Cripes [as just a regular player] that scares me! I'd never [be confident enough] to trade Castles and leave myself with just a Bishop and Pawns. I'd feel so much more confident that I could eat up more Pawns and get checks having a Castle. I also have never understood why there is always so much emphasis when it's one Bishop v one Knight. Surely the Knight has more scope, in at least, if northing else, being able to cover all the board and not just 50% like the Bishops?
So you are correct the knight has an advantage of being able to attack both color squares and if you look up bad bishop v good knight endgames you'll see just how big that can be. However, knights are also short range and clunky which means they are bad at dealing with action on both sides of the board at the same time (note the open center and shear number of isolated pawns also help in that game) additionally knights are very bad at dealing with A and H pawns. So in that particular endgame the bishop is far better than the knight. To some extent it will take practice and pattern recognition to figure out which piece is better in which endgame but a few things to look for are How open is the position? Will the knight have a good outpost on a square the opposite color of the bishop so it can never be dislodged? Are there pawns on both sides of the board or just 1? What colors are the pawns on (especially if they aren't mobile)? Bishops tend to like their opponent's pawn being on their color and their own pawns controlling the opposite color.
"Why do people keep leaving games against me?!" Because they look at your profile, see you're a sanctioned Smurf account and they lose nothing by walking away, so they walk away and find a game they're not going to get fucking stomped on in. That's why. Imagine if you were on your main 2400 account, and found out you were playing against someone with a 9500 ELO that you never stood a chance against, but they're just shitting up your ranks because content and lols. That's what you're doing to them, and why they leave the game. And by "the game" I both mean the match against you, and chess as a whole.
Nelson, this is not as enjoyable in my opinion, by a large margin. It is far more instructive to see you play and try to win, explaining as you go. You will encounter plenty of actual endgames as you approach the end of the rating climb. Please go back to normal play on the next segment. 🙏🏻
Bro did you not listen at the beginning he said this was to help instruct people about end games its the whole point of the video if you don't like this one that's okay just watch the ones you like just because he's showing something new doesnt means he is going to stop his other type of chess games.
@@owlishwillow7242 I understand what he said. I was just sharing my opinion about the format. I DO understand that this could be very helpful for some people. I also appreciate how he is pointing out in many cases some of the better moves he could be making.
You know I am glad that you responded this way instead of blasting me away like alot of people do so I am glad you can take criticism and be willing to listen I agree this videos format was bit boring but is very instructional for new players like myself and I am glad that you understand that
@@owlishwillow7242 An alternative would be to record commentary on a few dozen games without knowing where they were going to end up, and then include only the ones that made it to the endgame. To make this work, he should play higher-Elo players.
Also, another thing to mention about trading a rook and a pawn for a bishop and a knight (37:45): these pieces could be attacking the king, and now they are gone, while the rook was simply guarding the pawn at best (at worst, it often gets in the way of your own king). So, after this trade, the king becomes super safe (+ there is no back rank checkmate), and you can just forget about your king until the endgame.
Hi ! Can you play chess with your viewers because I really want to play with you coz I think I'm kinda underrated and can play better (I'm 600) I just wanted you to analyze the games and guess my actual elo (I don't play otb tournaments)
I swear, from watching this guy, he is complaining about being down a rook, I feel to be fair and give the other people an actual chance, when he plays anyone under 800, he should automatically give up the queen, two rooks and a bishop. That would just be so that there would be a somewhat balanced game.
Opponent: resigns
Nelson: "What a powerful move"
the opponent resigned cause the move nelson played was too powerful
🤣
Sun Tzu, art of number 36. Sometimes, it's best to run.
😂
15:02 😂
Best comeback trick: moving too slow so the opponent gets bored and quit
There's actually a counter to this: report for walking away/stretching time
@@tristanpranger supposingly its a rapid game
Lol
That doesn’t work they have a lot of patience
Or you sit on your phone waiting for them to move watching Nelson play chess.
Nelson is an awesome teacher.

15:05 Center Game: Lopez Variation

This video should honestly be categorised as comedy hahaha this was so much fun
I died of laughter when the third person resigned 😂😂💀 right after saying, "I gotta stop talking so much because people resign"
Impatient opponent? Well, luckily there is always another one waiting! I am totally happy to spend hours watching until we find one who can manage to not quit before the endgame. It is absolutely time well spent!
Wow that was one of the most useful lessons I’ve ever had!
Appreciate that!
I dont know why people play a 10 min game while they cant wait why not just play in bullet if they are so fast
Very, very instructive, Nelson. Especially that last game. Great commentary and recap. 👍👍
I hope he will soon meet another master doing a speed run from 200 :D
15:28 Peter Patzer must have eaten some of those berries. 8-)
24:53 This would have been a good point to mention the pawn square.
Bruh, i love this guys videos, but i just feel sorry for those poor buggers that have to face a 2200 rated player, moreso someone who is deliberately making mistakes and still winning.
Almost played the Reverse Hyper-Accelerated Bongcloud in the second game (1. e4 Ke7)
you mean 1. e4 Ke5
@@satgurs That's 10 Elo chess, not 400 Elo chess. 8-)
😂 couldn't stop laughing at "powerful move!"
25:55 bruh Qhd1 was mate 54:32 and here Qee2 is mate
29:21
Me: blundering and realising that before opponent moves
My opponent: I’m gonna pretend I didn’t see that
Me: hahaha he is too weak for me
The last endgame didn't feel like 400 elo at all.

Exactly. There's no risk of stalemate with two rooks. Queens not so much always have to be careful
At 25:42, educational point to keep things simple and just promote to a rook instead of a queen to prevent an unforeseen stalemate.
I can't wait for the next videos. Really instructive videos
Very helpful and instructive, thank you!

Thanks for these videos, I'm learninig a lot.
e4 resignation guy:
“Why is the eval bar so low- IS IT MAGNUS CARLSON RESIGN NOW HE PLAYED E4”
Peter Patzer shouldn't be rated between 300 and 400. Since the has eaten the berrys in patzer-prison, he should be rated about 3500.
Last opponent is pissed it’s virtually unheard of to win with that kind of position with only 30 seconds left he thought fs he was winning on time.
I managed to get to 600 cuz of Nelson's teaching thank you
The trade at 15:54 seems to be a mistake since you could take back with developing your knight, it's like white was giving up the moving priority
he's making them on purpose
@@sisifo05 I mean it's Nelson's opponent's mistake, not his

Привет!
13:16 actually you can go Nf5 as the bishop is pinned. Then depending on where the kingside rook moves to you can go either Ng3 or Ne3+ later.
This happened with me and my opponent in a 1600 game. I was playing black and game started with 1. e4 e5 and white resigned coz I didn't played c5 as black 😂😂😂😂😂!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
8:20 I'd probably try to open up the g-file and attack the King that way.
Kills me how impatient people are who picked a 10 minute time control 😂
U know it's gonna be a banger when nelson hits u with a two hour video❤
1/2 2 hours
In what universe are you in where 2 hours is the same as 1 hour?
lol Game 6 I'm just yelling: MOVE NELSON, MOVE!!!!
Mission Impossible: Get to an endgame during early stages of a rating climb, LMAO.

13:15 I think you can still move the knight in this situation, because after he moves the bishop will be pinned.
13:16 if your knight moves the bishop is pinned
Chess puzzle adventure
In the first game, they do notice the queen but know that the queen is defended and is therefore refusing the queen trade.
Thank you because I don't know lot about end gam w Nelson and I am the 50 like
The problem is that your opponents keep playing the French, so they have to resign shortly after the battle starts.
at 54:32 could have just moved Qxc3 and had quicker checkmate
The first game is really funny
I cant believe I was at the same level if not still the same with my 656 elo 😆🤣🤣
Throw for the content
At the end of first game, is bh3 a good move because it traps the king?
People are worried you don't move fast enough... "disconnected"
Peter Patzer 😆👌

What would you do if someone reported you for cheating because you were taking to long and you had someone email that you were doing leg exercises because of the gout?

SUGGESTION: Set up the start of the last 10 moves of 10 classic chess games and play them forward.😇
9:25 Resigned because... you didn't move in 2 min.
they see the peter-patzer profile pic and know they are being humiliated by a smurf on youtube
Me being stuck around 400 (5min games) am surprised by how easy you make it seem.
Commenting @ 1:00 lol 400 ... 800 elo don't play endgames. I'm living proof
Thx PETEY (Nelson), I'm a fan.
Cripes [as just a regular player] that scares me! I'd never [be confident enough] to trade Castles and leave myself with just a Bishop and Pawns. I'd feel so much more confident that I could eat up more Pawns and get checks having a Castle. I also have never understood why there is always so much emphasis when it's one Bishop v one Knight.

Hi !
Can you play chess with your viewers because I really want to play with you coz I think I'm kinda underrated and can play better (I'm 600)
I just wanted you to analyze the games and guess my actual elo (I don't play otb tournaments)
Can i challenge you to an otb chess match Nelson?

I think the reason many of these players are so low elo is because they quit too soon.
