I gained 300 elo in the last 3 days. Somehow i started winning. I'm sure it's mostly thanks to you and Levy
Levy is annoying J
@@gregwallace6159 THA RRRRRRRRRRRRROOOOKKKKK
Let's play
Don't forget to thank "The Rook!!!!"
In a practical sense, this is the absolute best chess channel for lower-rated amateurs trying to become intermediate or even advanced players. I wish someone had taught me these simple lessons/mindsets when I was a teenager!
Very helpful stuff, thank you!!
nice one, thanks a lot
love your explanations! Thanks a lot!
recently, I’ve been doing well in the openings and middle games, but seem to have trouble blowing it during the end game.
Your principles have really helped me get through openings in middle games with an advantage. But late middle game and endings seem like a big area. I need improvement. Any chance you could make some videos on those parts of the game?
Extremely well explained.
This helped so much
Great advice
Thank you Mr Igor
For the homework: Push d5 2. exd5 Nxd5 3. Bxd5 Nd4 4. Qa4+ с6 5. Вхс6+ bxc6
They can’t take on c6 or d4 because they blunder the queen
If they push: 6. c3 Nc2 and you fork the rook and you have a better position
If they try f4 or Nf3 there passive moves because you still push Nc2 and win the rook
Can someone let me know if I got it correct. Awesome video thank you for all the great content!
I'm sorry but this is wrong. after Nd4 opponent sacks back Bf7 and stops the fork and you are left with a worse position
the right move is Nd4 from the get-go. white playing Bf7 is a blunder and you just have to move your king to the only square and you will be safe. then b5 to disconnect the queen and the Bishop and take the Bishop in the next move
knight d4 bishop takes on f 7 check king e 7 queen c4 b5 queen d3 and king takes the bishop
Great video again! The problem I am facing is that I have difficulty to find the great moves you are talking about. I pretend I have to imagine moves that are against my actual "narrow" vision. I also feel a little bit like Luke being told by Yoda to unlearn what he has learned 😄 One example is that someone said to complete the opening before attacking, what has helped me and what goes somehow against your attacking moves in this video. I am scratching my head about how I will address all of this from now on 😵💫. That's what I like about chess, there is always something new to consider; even things we took for granted. Thanks.
The key is to keep playing with all these ideas in mind. You'll probably make a lot of mistakes, but it will slowly make sense and become part of your games until you notice a big jump in your rating.
I went from 700 to 1200 in less than a year following this method.
Remote Chess Academy, I really enjoyed watching this, so I hit the like button!
Glad you enjoyed it!
The move should be Nd4 to attack the queen and the c2 pawn.
Then white probably plays Bxf7+ and black is forced play Ke7, then white must move the queen. The only move which deals with all threats is Qc4 which defends both c2 pawn and f7 bishop, but now black can play b5 to attack the queen and white will needs to move the queen away and allows black to either play Nxf2+ and wins a rook, or give up the bishop at f7
Mistake: Nc2+ instead of mistaken - Nf2+. I agree with your idea.
are you guys nuts? still B x P f7+, and K can't take, and then very complicated. why not the simple Q-e7?
@@eclecticmusic123 Are you paying attention to the video? That's what a 1300 does.
@@eclecticmusic123 Qe7 is very passive. Bxf7+ Ke7 is fine. The king is safe and it attacks the bishop. White has no other pieces in the attack and the queen is overloaded, she can’t leave the diagonal cuz it drops the bishop to Kxf7. And she also is sole defender of the fork on c3.
@@eclecticmusic123Nd4 is 3.2 points winning for black
9:50 how about Bishop to H6, if knight takes pawn then we can let the rook hang and take the white bishop, and next turn go to A2 and capture the rook (meanwhile the white knight's trapped)
And if white takes the pawn with the bishop, move the king to e7, and next move we exchange the knight for our bishop and capture the white bishop ?
I'd appreciate feedback on this.
(sorry, I don't master chess notations so I explained it in plain english)
Igor is such a cool name. Thanks for the video!
At first I thought the solution to the puzzle was 1… Na5 2. Bxf7+ Ke7 3. Qb5 c6 4. Qe2 Kxf7 -+
However, then I noticed that white can play 3. Qa4 instead of 3. Qb5 and in that case black has just lost a pawn, and castling rights.
So the solution is 1… Nd4 2. Bxf7+ Ke7 3. Qc4 b5 4. Qd3 Kxf7 -+
Also, in the last position in the video where you play h6 Nxf7 Rh7, it's also worth mentioning that Bxf7+ is met by Ke7, and white loses a piece by force. Their bishop is attacked by the king, but it's defended. However the defender itself is under attack
It's beyond Me @ this point, But Igor's method is sound; & I love the graphics(He is smooth).
I'm debating back and forth and decided to check the computer. It recommends Nd4, but my original thought was d5 and if they take with a pawn or trade off with the bishop they will be down -3.60 points in advantage vs -2.20 with Nd4. I personally would play d5 despite the video indicating Nd4 is the move.
I was trying to figure out.
…Nd4, Qe3 d4, Bg3 dxe4, Qc4 Qe7. And so on.
Is there something better after Qe3 guarding c3?
Edit: wait after Qc4 threatening mate black can play …Be6 and the queen needs to retreat to f1 or she’s gonna get trapped. Then black can trade bishops and c3 is hanging.
@@lyingcat9022...Nd4, Qe3 then Nxc2+..
@@valvennis yeah I meant Qd3 not Qe3
Hi Igor, I think the best answer for your homework is Nd4, and followed by b5 and c6 to kick the white quee away and take Bishop, if white play Bf7+. Just wondering how about white play Bf7+ and then Cxd4, @6:20. Thanks you so much!
You right about Nd4 but you have to know b5 only comes after bf7. I got the answer instantly because I remember getting my Bishop taken when I was 850 elo.
And the question for Bf7. white playing that is a mistake and you just have to move your king to the only square and you will be safe. then b5 to disconnect the queen and the Bishop and take the Bishop in the next move
the answer for the puzzle is pawn d5 this forces white to capture with the pawn and when they do knight d6 threatening a fork and attacking the queen. Alternatively if white captures with the bishop knight takes pawn takes and knight d6
Great advice, love it!
So glad!
1...Nd4 2.Bxf7 Ke7 3.Qc4 b5 win a bishop
Found the best move thanks
For the puzzle, I think Nd4. After that Bxf7 Ke7, Qc4 b5 will cause the queen to give up guarding the bishop.
I immediately knew not to take the queen. Learned it from the thumbnail. If anyone needs chess advice from me you can ask me I can help you become grandmaster
How can I reach you
@@JamesLuganu Ask your question in this comment, I'll answer anything
If you learned it from this thumbnail, you are just an amateur player and not a very good one. 😅 You are in no position to help anyone become a GM.
@@tominmo8865 I'm far above grand master level, I helped my neighbour's friend's brother become GM
@@tominmo8865sarcasm ✈️
Found the best or second best move in all cases. Still 700 something in Blitz.
(This channel has still helped me, no doubt about that).
thank you. Can you offer a book for me (or any e content). Im about 1200 elo started 6 month ago. Probably my end game needs upgrading the most.
I've reached the position in the puzzle many times after defending scholars mate. I always go Nd4, Bf7+, Ke7, Qc4, b5, Qc3/d3, and win the bishop.
Can we get more videos like this one, that shows the 3 different types of moves
I guess 1. Nd4 to hit the queen, and after 2.Bxf7+; Ke7 and threats remans (knight tasrgets the white queen and depending where she moves Nxc2+ forking king and rook or Kxf7 if white doesn't blunder the queen)
What about
…Nd4, Qd3 protecting c3?
I was calculating lines after Qd3 d5, striking in the center. A few different lines to calculate there but I think black comes out at least up a pawn.
If 1. ...Nd4; 2.Qc3, Nxe4 threatening the queen, grabbing a pawn and 3.Qd3 or b3 to protect the c2 pawn, and then 4.Nb4 (for Qd3) or Nd4(for Qb3) and after 5.Qb3 or Qd3(to flee again) I don't see the following. And yes we have a pawn.
Is it pawn to d4 pls answer me man also thanks for your help
Igor what should I do to reach level 2000 I mean things like tactical tasks etc that I can do regardless of ranking along the way. My current ranking is 1300.
Maybe get to 1500 first?
experience and focus on smaller goals and progress ie wanting to get to 1400, 1500 etc
Puzzle of day; im THINKING start with D5 push somewhat like the fried liver line?
Is answer D5? If pawn captures then knight to D4 ,if bishop captures then exchange with knight and after pawn captures again ND4
Nice
Knight on C3 to D4 is the best move I think for the puzzel
Hell yeah brother
I am trying to reach 1700 but when i get close i start losing. What should i do?
More practice
“The more you want something, more likely you are to lose it” - somebookIread
So when you get close to 1700 play like you don't care much
Relax your mind. Don’t play too much. You can just solve puzzles. Eventually, the game becomes easier as you learn the best moves in most situations.
Literally won the game after I watched this!!!!
I think the right move is a counter attack against the queen with knight d4, he cant actually checkmate you easily here with his bishop in front so knight d4 defuses the attack, takes center control and creates new initiative, once he moves then pawn d5 may get you 2 knights in the center.
pawn d5 to shut down the battery immediately. then follow with Nd4. if Qb5+ c6 followed by b5. in other cases there may be a liquidation in the center which favors black
Skip d5 and go straight to Nd4
@@tgoods5049 thanks! i am too cautious in my game. i will have a look at that line now
I like the whole "keep the tension going" idea, but that only works if the other player also wants to do that. Faced with tension or exchange, 500-600 blitz players just exchange.
Thanks sir
I love the content you create , but can you make a video on pirc defense with traps😊
6:25 Is ... Bxf7 gaining a pawn worth considering?
1.. Nd4!! 2. Bxf7+ Ke7 forces a win of material.

Pawn to D5
Thanks for the videos
ur my favourite gm
Nd4, Bxf7+, Ke7, Qc4, b5, Qd3, Kxf7
I would move e4 to block the bishop. Then it would eat the white pawn. Then i move my horse to e5 to attemprt to captute the queen.if the queen will move to e6 then that is triple fork by night to f7.
Isn't take free pawn on e5 with knight the correct answer? as white queen moved and blundered by leavinh hanging pawn? You only gaining half point by trading with white after bishop queen fork...
Nd4 counter attacking, if Bxf2+ then Ke2 attacks the bishop which will win a piece
Nd4. Thank you for making the video Igor it's very helpful.
are you guys nuts? still B x P f7+, and K can't take, and then very complicated. why not the simple Q-e7?
Sir Knight d4 ,Nd4
Blacks best move will be i guess to counter attack with knight on A5 it forks bishop and quin.
after watching your video, I would do Knight on D4 😉
N d4 , what do you think
Puzzle solution- knight d4
Na5 to attack both Queen and bishop
Qe2 ?
It's the easiest example to explain those chess principals.😎
move I think is Na5, bishop can still check but then after king steps forward, the queen must be saved and there is no place where she can cover the bishop, so the bishop is lost sooner or later ?
Qa3+ needs to be considered
@@scionescire blocking with d6 should be fine.
Yes Bxf7+ losses the bishop for a pawn ruining blacks castling.
But what happens after …Nd4, Qe3 defending c3?
…d5 maybe?
I'm amazed that so many Europeans can not only speak basic English but also know colloquialisms like "evergreen question."
That will often be because there is a phrase in their own language that they like to use and so they sought a suitable English equivalent.
D5? If pawn takes, simply move the knight to d4 forking queen/pawn with the further fork on c2.
Thatd be my move, but i am not great.
I would like Nd4 but that doesn't stop the Bishop checking the King, so Qe7
Nd4 is the move though. You allow the check, move the king up, white queen has to move to c4 (she has to protect the bishop) and then I guess just b5 to kick away the queen. Wherever she moves she'll have to stop guarding the Bishop and/or c2.
@@Axiomatic75 i was thinking after Qc4, b5 or Na5 but i think b5 is better than Na5
Total rookie here but is there a better move for the puzzle than queen E2? If he decides to attack you lose a pawn and a queen and gain a bishop and a queen. Plus he loses all development of his pieces. Sounds like a fair trade to me
Actually pawn to d5 looks better now that I look longer. Damn you chess lol
I would say Nd4 looks pretty good to me
Rb1 and the xb4?
Na5 right?
Its a fork and it defends the b7 pawn
Can you make a video of SEMI SLAV PLZ !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Always retreat. Except once in a while when a counterattack is better :)
best move...Pd5?
Nd4 only option
Nd4
I think the answer to the puzzle is knight to d4
Pawn D5
N D4
Ive been watching igor a lot and finnaly after 1.5 years reached 1500, not stopping till 2750
Good luck man, just yesterday i hit 1500 rating in a year on and off
I learned that you must not move your piece when attacked by opponent
Listening to Nakamura scream instead of lullabies 🤣🤣🤣
BG7
Nd4..
My elo sails between 1500-1650 yay! :)
Nd4 attacking the queen then Kc2 after the queen moves you got a fork….
qd7
d5?
D5
Isn't the safest one Qe7
Q e7
solution to puzzle: Nd4?!
It looks like the move is Nd4
Nd4 Bxf7+ Ke7 Qc4 b5
or
Nd4 Qc3 Nxe4 Qd3 d5
or
Nd4 Qd3 d5 exd5 Nxd5 Bxd5 Qxd5
…Nd4, Qd3 d5, exd5 Bf5!
And the queen is skewered to c3!
Knight to d4??
Na5 threatening the queen and the check attack was crumbled
*Nd4
knight d4
Knight b4?
d5
