Thanks to you now all my opponents try the same methods on me😢
The Level 10 puzzle is given in Aron Nimzowitsch's classic "My System", my favourite chess book of all time!
Is the book recommended for advanced players or is it too complicated? Did it rais your Rating a lot? And what us your Rating if i might ask you ♟️
@@Checky68 It should be an enjoyable, if outdated, read for players of all strengths.
Of course I cannot definitively say how it has contributed to my rating. I would agree that it has made a lasting impression on my understanding of the game.
That last one was honestly INSANITY. The crazy bishop EVERYTHING move and the absolutely MIND BLOWING rook sacrifice. Absolutely Beautiful.
Zach, Your editing skill is gradually getting really good
Great Video quality and great content as well
Cheers 🙌
I’d like to just say that your content is amongst the best when it comes to educational chess on UA-cam. I really like the unique content but i would also love a rapid speed run where you talk about positions and explain your thought process during every phase of the game.
Keep up the great work!

I solved the first 6 but I found 7 quite difficult great video as always!
I’m proud of myself for having solved almost all the puzzles, including the final one
That's CRAZY bro, what's your rating?
I highly doubt it, unless you’re IM/GM. I didn’t get to solve most as an almost 2200
@@MasterInHD I’m only 1500, but that’s true
I have no reason to lie
@@-sn4k3-94 dude, these puzzles are rated for 2500+ GMs. You’re a measly 1500 blitz, who is like 1100 elo. Who will get adopted by 2000+ player. I couldn’t solve a lot of these myself. No beginner is solving this. Why lie?
@@MasterInHD Lol, it’s not a lie
In puzzles I have 2600 elo, and this puzzles are all not that hard, if you have 5-10 minutes to solve it
There is one more solution for puzzle number 3. White can also sacrifice queen to H8 followed by either KF5 to NE7 check mate, or NC6 to KE7 checkmate. Black can only block BC3 check by NF6 but white will play BF6 takes Knight.
I like that ur editing style evolved
Very cool puzzles 🏅
hi zach, really enjoying this video series so far! could i suggest a few more themes: prophylaxis (type 1 and type 2 as per naroditsky's theory); colinear moves i.e. a retreating move of say a bishop or rook when threatened on a diagonal or file onto a better square in order to exchange on your own terms; king walks
IN PUZZLE 5 I MISSED THAT IT WAS BLACK TO PLAY AND WIN, SO I CALCULATED CHECKMATE WITH THE WHITE PIECES 💀
Same here 😂
there wasnt mate
last one was crazy, love ur videos
Thanks you so much Zach for the valuable chess resource you provide in this channel keep it up ! 🎉
Puzzle #6 reminds me of Morphy's Opera game
I agree, I mean the ending is pretty similar, queen sac in both positions deflecting a knight to open up the diagonal for DSB and do a bishop rook checkmate...
Thanks and specially for the last one
insane last puzzle!
The last one is gotta be my favorite chess puzzle now
in puzzle 3, you could also move the queen to the corner of the board
I got to 1800 but the rest made mistakes. Could not figure the last one. I got the bishop, but did not see giving up the rook to shield the king. Wow, fantastic
Couldn't even get puzzle 3. How do you guys have that vision to solve for the later puzzles? Wow.
Bro, I’m the same rating as Zach and I couldn’t solve a lot of these. Don’t sweat it
I'm 550 elo in rapid, like 450 in blitz, couple points under 900 in daily games and I easily cleared level 1, but on level 2 I saw the queen sac and I had the right idea that somehow the rook will do the checkmate, but somehow I missed the bishop check on h6, but then again I cleared level 3 pretty easily😂
Edit: went to study level 4 on a board and I had definetly the right ideas, but I couldn't find the follow ups after first couple checks. (I explored options and definetly had the right ideas)
Even on level 5 I found the rook sac, but definetly couldn't see the follow up:D Of course I knew somehow the rook on g8 will deliver either a check or checkmate and get involved in the mating net.
But holy crap I cleared level 6:D
If someone reads this comment I can even put the moves in before I've watched the solution. Bishop to c4, black queen takes, white queen to e8, black knight takes and whitw rook to f8, opera checkmate:D
Level 7 is where I couldn't find even the first move.
Level 8, found the right ideas and I immediatly knew about a possible rook lift too. Imo level 7 was way harder than level 8.
Level 9 found the first move (didn't know if it was the first move thought, but saw it as a possibility) Found some ideas like a queen sac on h6, which led to no where:D Also I saw white bishop to f7 proably is part of the mating net at some point. Definetly didn't find the follow up thought...
I managed to solve the last one in less than 20 seconds and I don't even know how I did it. I failed level 7 but somehow completed the last one in less than 20 seconds. anyways really great and educative video!
needed this video thankss 😃
I found puzzle 6 to be much easier than the previous ones.
Idk wth happened to me, 1400-1600 took me about 6 seconds whereas 1200-1400 took like 3 minutes
same
Continue doing this awesome videos
10:19 qa1 queen takes bc4 kh8 forced king h2 rook f8 checkmate
4:12 sac queen h8 king takes nf5 king moves g8 ne7 mate
3:18 sac the roook e4 queen takes then bf6 then no one can stop mate if it doesnt take rh4 queen takes bishop qh7# is a beautiful mate
That satisfaction after solving last😭😭
Puzzle 2 features a game of Judith Polgar (as white).
Almost solved the final one after thinking for about 2 mins
Merci!
Loved 10! Thanks
As a 2150, Level 7 was unfathomable
I don't get why the white rook couldn't have gone behind the king to open up g1 when the rook moved to b8
Amazing as always!
7:50 b2 rook sac rook takes knight take pawn c3 check king moves down rook g1 mate
Same
puzzle 6 took me 3 seconds, and i found every move in puzzle 10 but not in a row just move by move
I am a 1100 elo player and I found puzzles 1, 3, 4, 5 and 10. This is quite strange.
nice and well made videos
Thank you Alessandro :)
Isnt it that crazy i can't find mate in 6 to 9 puzzle but i can figure out the correct mate in the final puzzle
you can't believe me but i found the final puzzle's solution. (all the moves)
Level 3: Queen sacrifice could be on h8 I think.
I thought of that too but then nf5 wouldn't be double check so they can just block with the pawn
I'm 2400 rated puzzles but 1200 blitz, any advice Zach??
Practice oppening
That’s pretty incredible. Means you’re a tactical player. I’m 2150 Blitz, but only 2800 puzzles
I don't get why the white rook couldn't have gone behind the king to open up g1 when the rook moved to b8.
In level 7
21:38 Which language was Zach speaking in?
Could you please maybe flip the board when it’s black to move??
Yeah I found the level 10 puzzle answer... Pretty proud
I only solved the first one
I got all correct!
The final is so easy
Thanku sooooo much I have my first chess tournament next week
yo i just started reviewing this series this afternoon
The 6th one was actually easiest for me
couldnt solve puzzle 8, but could puzzle 9. that's a bit strange, but okay. the puzzle 9 gives the woodpecker method vibes
The 1700 puzzle must for 2400 level
it literaly took 15 mins for me to solve the 2500+ problem😅😅 really hard
The last one was the most easiest one
Nice bro
Level 5 one deserved to be at higher, I solved many after that but not that one😅
Did you get L7?
@@MasterInHD yes almost, i didn't calculate all branches tho but first move I got
@@vedicarya7 that’s not a win. Getting the first move is the easy part. I got the first, second and third moves but forgot a single thing in most of these and I’m not giving myself the full point
@@MasterInHD okay sir got it, I'm only 1200 elo 😅
Thank you!
Hi sir , can you suggest best books to read ? by the way my rating is 1300. what book do you suggest for me
I solved the last one the quickest
Honestly I solved The final boss It took me approximately 10 whole minutes
I think the whole concept of mating net is much higher level than any basic tactics and so the default elo shouldvebeen 1000 elo
I noticed, that I had found all the correct moves in the beginning. But couldn't complete most of the checkmate in the end! Because of overthinking
Zackary, when you say elo does it mean chesscom elo or lichess, fide?
It’s elo
I found Queen to h8+ in 3puzzle
I can't believe that.
I solved 10th puzzle😮
Me in puzzle 5 trying to solve it for 5 minutes and realized its black to play not white to play
who else loves this guys videos?
Yo I am 13 and 1500 I found the level without using the engine man I so proud of myself
I like the way you speak
I somehow solved EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM HOW DID I DO THIS
for some reason i cant solve puzzle 2 3 4 5 but i can solve puzzle 6
6:35 takes☠️☠️☠️
How did I figure out level 8 but not 7
I solved puzzle 6 in 2 seconds
bro i wanna be like you
bro i just solved level 5 in 10seconds but i solved 3th 40 sec💀
