    With regards to tip 7, “pieces are not the only thing worth something.” All too true. There are three main advantages one can have in a game of chess:
    1) material advantage. This is the easiest to determine, just add up the value of the captured pieces on both sides. Whomever has the largest number has a material advantage.
    2) positional advantage. This is difficult to determine until you get some experience. This can take into account things like; batteries, open files, opponent’s undefended pieces or pawns, kings lined up with major pieces (queen, or one of the rooks), doubled or isolated pawns, weak squares, etc…
    3) temporal advantage. This type of advantage is mercurial and can change in an instant with one inaccurate move, but most often shows up in zugzwang, or when a player is trying to maintain the initiative. At the beginning of the game, white has a minute temporal advantage; they get to move first.
    During a chess game, these advantages often trade with one another; a player will offer a pawn (material) for more development (position), or the use an advantage in position to gain material, or a mating attack. I’d even go so far as to say this is the essence of a chess game; knowing when to trade one type of advantage for another. 😊

      Great analysis. After analyzing most games I play I do agree that all three have to be taken into consideration when playing a chess match. A player be up material however the tempo can change because the player down material will mount a last stand attack.

    In a fianchetto set up with white, you don't normally play h3, but if you do, Kh2 will always follow. So it is not easy at all to beat the fianchetto set-up unless white is a Troll.

    its fascinating how one move that "you normally play" but isn't correct for that position can kill your game. I do Kings Indian as one of my main opens and i always ignore that bishop in the beginning. I'll get him eventually but that white squared bishop is a pivotal piece

  • @NotMyRealEffingName
    @NotMyRealEffingName 11 днів тому +6

    Great video, as always! Lol, I have a buddy who almost exclusively plays the King’s Indian (on both sides of the board), and I invariably use some of these same principles (which I actually learned from some of your previous videos), to devastating effect. I’m not significantly better at the game than he is, but I’ve learned that every time I put my bishop on g4 he tries to kick it with h3, inducing a long term weakness that I target later. Because I almost always play Bg4, sometimes he even preemptively plays h3 just to prevent Bg4 (which is great for me lol). I have about a 5 to 1 win ratio against him using this simple strategy. I’ve even told him that moving pawns in front of his king is a bad idea, but he still can’t resist trying to kick that bishop. Very powerful move.

  • @SparkSovereign

    This is such a wonderful series, because it's easy to find videos or use stockfish on tactical patterns, but much rarer to find good discussion of long term strategic weaknesses and how to capitalize on them. Love it. I'm still working on "don't blunder while building up long term advantage" but eventually we'll get there 😅

      This is also why players often need a coach when they want to get even better. You'll need someone good at chess to tell you which moves are good moves you should keep in mind, which are some weird engine moves that it's only practical to play if you can calculate 20 moves of all possible lines

  • @PatrickMettchen
    @PatrickMettchen 7 днів тому

    At 15:15 I thought sacraficing the knight on e3 would be the best move. Looking pretty good. If white takes back, black takes on on g3 threatening mate on h7. To stop mate white have to sac the rook and queen for rook and pawn. If white takes on f1 we simply take back and mate is unstoppable.

  • @ventsyv

  • @sumalathadp7587
    @sumalathadp7587 10 днів тому +1

    At 17:48 you mentioned that White is totally fine after not getting the pawn back. What do you mean by that? From a human perspective, losing a pawn is actually a huge deal. It's also not easy to get it back, right? But I don't think that's the actual error. I think the error is when White did not see the positional tactic Bxf3 and should have played Kh2 instead to defend the hook pawn with the king.

    It's too late for h3 after the bishop has already attacked the f3 knight with Bg4. I do h3 to prevent that attack in the first place.
    White's biggest problem is the two white pawns blocking his own queen from coming across to help defend his king.
    Re the last question: Ba3 becomes a bad bishop as the chain of black pawns blocks it out of play. You want to watch out when developing pieces not to place them where they will get stuck and become irrelevant.

    • @SmilingIbis
      @SmilingIbis 11 днів тому +3

      I've seen this done quite a bit in the English and other closed games. It gets the bishop to a more active (though also exposed) square and allows the Rook to go to c1. It's not mandatory, but it also gets it out of the way of the queen. These closed and semi-opened games tend to not give the closed side a lot of space to move around in.

  • @Pixelarator

    7:06 but you win a pawn and also going to annoy your opponent a lot with their pawn structure.
    9:27 I don't think its a good idea to trade that bishop for 1 pawn. Black's gonna have an easy way to attack. yeah, white went from +0.1 to -0.7 with just 1 move, weakening the king's safety and losing the amazing bishop pair
    11:05 its threatening the bishop on e3, if it is traded then g3 pawn is undefended. can't find the second one. nvm, I saw that but didn't expect that count as a threat.
    12:08 f5? just checked stockfish and it said white went from -0.6 to -2.9 with just Qe3
    12:58 f4? 13:10 nah, I am 1400 and I only have 1 thing in mind when playing chess: checkmate the king, no matter the cost. I wasn't even sure I would even recapture if white capture that bishop. nvm, stockfish said taking back is better.
    14:19 f3, exf3, Nf4, just completely ignore that pawn and white have no way to stop mate. (yeah stockfish also said that)
    15:20 black just lose 4 point of advantage by ignoring that.

    • @james64ibm
      @james64ibm 11 днів тому +1

      Do not expect to create a forced checkmate. Rather, you have to keep your queen on the board and look for (and calculate) tactical opportunities. Maybe you can sacrifice one of your pieces for one of the pawns remaining in front of the king and then fork the king and another more valuable piece with the queen. Maybe you can push one your pawns to open up the king even more and then fork the king and another piece directly. Or threaten to fork to gain another advantage.
      However, it's very rarely trivial, and once the queens are exchanged you often have very little advantage unless the enemy king is WIDE open and you still have bishops and rooks.
      Side note: If your opponent has a lot of pieces between his king and the pushed pawns the king is often quite secure. The Leningrad Dutch is an example where the black king in not nearly as vulnerable as it looks like at first glance.

  • @zelandakhniteblade5436
    @zelandakhniteblade5436 6 днів тому

    This is a reversed Sicilian (Accelerated Dragon), not a King's Indian. The game was played by Rudolf Pitschak and Salo Flohr in 1934, so theory was low by today's standards, particularly since white is under 2500. That is presumably why he gave up his Dragon bishop so lightly; I doubt even an average club player would make such a decision these days. Anyone watching this video and thinking this will be an easy way for them to break down a king's position behind a bishop on g2 or g7 in general, rather than just for this specific game, is delusional and it is essentially click-bait to suggest that might be the case.

    Lots of good material in here, but I'd like to see how to easily beat a fianchetto setup if my opponent doesn't sacrifice their bishop in a useless manner. I'm still a relative noob but I cringed when he went after than knight.

    Come on Neslon. Play 960. Prove you KNOW chess! Or are you just another memory player like Fischer talked down to? Would Fischer dog walk you with the bongcloud? You're no N. Short

    10:55 Black Knight to F4; you have to take the knight or its checkmate.
    Take with the bishop or pawn; I take with the pawn. ♟️ if you don’t take; I’ll take;
    You take pawn on F4 I’ll check with queen on G3 and take the pawn
    You move that queen to E1 and I’ll move my black bishop to H4
    You don’t take I’ll have pawn on G3 and play checkmate on my turn next
    Turn it off and set the pieces back up. The dude lost real bad after he traded off his white bishop
    Then when dude didn’t move his king away afterwards; over with 😂
