      Why is the position at the end hopeless? Can't black do h6 and survive? Certainly resignable

      @@Chessfactor I have a suggestion, it's something I try to do in a very makeshift way. Instead of showing the moves after you have read them, show 3 similar positions, only one is correct for the moves read out ( for example, not the correct knight move ...) to develop fine discrimination.

    Great video I however want to know are there any adults that you know of or people who visit this video that have improved their visualization as an adult? In an interview between Herman Grooten and Ben from the Perpetual chess podcast Herman states that is impossible for adults to learn to visualize the board after 12 years old because of the changes in the brain. It's a subject I'm very much interested in and I have tried many techniques myself without success. I can't visualize it I remember the moves but that is not the same. You explain very well and I hope to see more soon. Great chess channel thanks for uploading.

    • @Chessfactor

      Glad to hear that you liked the video and thanks for subscribing to our channel! Having a review on the user comments that they posted under the different videos on visualization, we have the feeling that some people could really improve their visualization or that those videos helped them in other ways. But there is also feedback that some viewers were not able to visualize the moves at all. It is hard to say if there is really an age limit where you cannot learn visualization any more as the people are different. Maybe there are some adults that are able to visualize the moves from our exercises but they don't know about it as they never tried it. But of course the earlier you start learning and training visualization, the better it is. Is there any other visualization training that you tried next to our visualization exercises?

    • @rachelthomas9962
      @rachelthomas9962 4 роки тому

      Definitely yes as an adult but it is a technique I use at the piano also.

      I read your comment 6 months ago and I remembered it now after I played my first blindfold game and won it (against easy opponent but still count),, so for those who think it is late: i am 35 years old and i start training my visualization from the point of not even knowing the name of squares to the point of complete blindfolded game by: 1 memorizing the board, each square, 2 having pieces moving in the board in my mind, 3 doing easy tactics blindfolded etc.. but answering your question: yes an adult can do that if he insists

    Hi! I just discovered your channel. Is this series going to be different from your past series on visualization? Should I watch this over the other? Would watching both be redundant?

    • @Chessfactor
      @Chessfactor  4 роки тому +3

      Glad you ask. Basically the videos are contentwise identical so watching them would be indeed redundant. With the 2D series on Visualization, we wanted to bring the 2D board to the foreground as several people where asking to pay more attention to the 2D board. Answering your question to watch one over the other, well we would say that you should focus on the 3D board if you're are tournament player or when you rather play games on a physical board. If you primarily play chess on a computer then the 2D series might be better for you. Hope the remarks were helpful to you.

    Thank you for making video to improve in visualisation memory.
    I have 2 question -
    How our brain visualise ? like - pictorial or by creating structural connectivity with square names and its neighbour square name to form chess board in our mind ?
    Is pictorial board appears inside a human brain by doing practice in chess visualisation memory ?
    Thank you so much

      Thanks for asking! This is exactly why we did the same series also with a real board. Here is the link to the series with the real board: ua-cam.com/video/WChrD2tXiWQ/v-deo.html
      If you are mostly playing on a real board, then we definitely recommend to watch the videos with the real board as the experience is different. Let us know how it worked and enjoy the series!

    Sir plz make a video to visualise a chessboard in mind with dark and light squares... I get confuse sometimes and how to learn notations by heart ...

    • @Chessfactor
      @Chessfactor  4 роки тому +1

      Thanks for asking. Basically, there is no need to create a separate video for this as we can give you some basic tips that you can try out. One possibility is that you just write down on a piece of paper some random coordinates like e4, c6, h7 and so on. In the next step you can consider whether the fields, that you have noted down, are dark or light. Write down your results on the paper next to the coordinates that you have chosen. Once you are done with your list, you can check your selection with a chess board.
      Another option to train the coordinates is that you also write down some random positions of chess pieces, placed on an empty board, on a piece of paper like Ne4, Qd1, Bc4…In the next step you can think of the square or squares the pieces can move to. Write down your results on a piece of paper and check them afterwards with a chess board. I hope that those proposals help you in a way for your coordinate visualization. Let me know how it worked out.
