I'm curious why was the castling in the 6th minute an inaccuracy?
Also how can we tell if our move is okay or an inaccuracy
It's a blue one which means that it's a tricky move.😅
@@krisztianjarai7753 ignore inaccuracy if you're new rn while analyzing. Analyze mistakes and blunders and search for better move. Like, developing minor pieces or something is hanging/undefended. and, ask yourself, can I fork it ? Or, can I discover check ? Learn tactics
Few more videos and I'll beat Magnus
In chess I hope? 😂
@@ReyWilde :) with chessboard, lol
Abcorse you can do it every one can
Yeah everyone "can"
Assuming we will spend 25 hours a day studying and playing chess. We need to go past Magnus's work ethic and his Brain capabilities.@@Onlyone421
😂
My notes:
1. Brainstorm candidate moves
2. Exclude moves that don't fit your plan.
3. Calculate lines (check if move is safe. Can your opponent attack you somehow?)
Once in endgame, aim is to capture pawns and promote, not checkmate (unless obvious).
Some ideas to refine:
Maximum activity - move as forward as practical.
Attack something on your opponent's side of the board.
Follows your plan
Improve your least active piece
If in doubt do the most aggressive move
What's your elo
U deserve million subs...yr vids are very useful helps me a lot ... thanks
Many chess channels come and go for me. But of all the chess teachers out there. When you talk... I understand chess, and it feels simple. Thank you
Great video!!! Do more of these!
Excellent insights. Thanks for sharing
i very much appreciate all your insight on great chess!
Amazing help
Your best video so far❤
Thanks a lot, sir. I have learnt many thing.
Thanks for the awsome videos
Great approach!
In example 2, I would want to prepare some sort of greek gift attack. So that means removing and/or pinning the knights. Dark bishop G5 is the move I would pick in blitz and then just go for the attack. So I picked my target and then applied the principle of removing the defender, and the enemy horse on F6 is a classic defender against this type of attack.
more videos like this please!
Thanks :)

If the thumbnail isn't lying, thanks for helping me reach 2100! CM soon? (no offense)
Yes, I love these videos.
amazing video
Very interesting vidéo.
I found the 3 moves (but the 2nd one only after your suggested rook d3 in the list of candidate moves, i didn't find it either).
The 3rd one can be found just following the principle to 'fix' opponent pawns on white squares so they have the weak bishop and you have the strong one.
Thank you sir! I am preparing to my next week tournament and you come in a clutch!
Good Luck!
This is The Best Teaching Chess Video.🆒😎
A very nice approach to thinking process. More like this please.
Sure!
Excellent! After applying ideas like this -specifically from your course The Grandmaster's Secrets - I have achieved above 90% accuracy in so many games that I'm afraid of being accused of cheating! lol : ) I don't get that high all the time, but what a gigantic difference this has made for me!
Do you have a video where you show how to counter White's opening g3?
Kudos to you sir,you are the best teacher, lovely wishes,respects and regards 🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤

For the second example, why not consider Ne4? Firstly that c3 knight in an inactive place (since the rook already defends the pawn that this knight is defending) The point of the move would be with the purpose to eliminate the knight on f6 because it defends the castle pawn h7 which we want to attack, as well as a potential queen landing square h5.
Even if it's not the best, I'm surprised you didn't even mention it. Am I missing something bad about this move?
“So you want to think, which of these moves follows my plan”
So, you’re saying I need a plan..
got all 3 correct virtually instantly, but then i have been playin for over 30 yrears
Am I missing something or can you shrink this into two steps? 1. Devise candidate moves that fit your plan, 2. Calculate... Otherwise, where do candidate moves come from in the first place? Also if you exclude candidate moves that do not fit your plan then how do you reconcile that with tactics? This thinking process makes no sense to me. In fact it is a horror for a philosophy student like me
I think the response to your question is that this kind of video is designed for intermediate level players, who instinctively can recognize what moves make any kind of sense. Then you narrow it down by checking if the moves are safe. Then you pick the most aggressive move that fits your overall plan. It makes sense to me for a classical game, but nobody seems to want to play those any more. It would be difficult ( for me, at least) to apply this to a rapid game though. In faster games I think the process is reversed: Find an aggressive move that fits your plan, check that it’s safe, and play it.
@@BlunderBunnyI am not satisfied with your answer. I am 2000 FIDE who has been stuck at 2000 FIDE for 3 years! and I can always chalk up an instinctive list of candidate moves...but I do not care about that because he said to choose the candidate moves that fit the plan of the position. So the process to me sounds something more like 1. determine what type of position it is, 2. select candidates that fit your plan, 3. calculate. but seemingly this can not be reconciled with tactics. I don't do well in tactics puzzles when I think with this type of thought process. Such videos as this is contributing to my learned helplessness and its driving me crazy
I created my own thought process. I usually observe the entire board and where can each piece go and what is undefended. I also look at what is weak and undefended for each side. then, I look for threats from my opponent.
and then, i play my move
It looks good. Maybe more time consuming if you watch each piece all directions. So if you can still filter it, it becomes even better.
@@peterbago4574 it takes like 10 seconds just for the first step in my thinking process
❤❤❤❤
First, thanks!
I won 15 out of my last 20 games! That is, before I watched this video. Lost two in a row immediately, once blundering my queen on 5th move. I obviously blame this video. Kind regards:)
im at 0:58, is e5 not a good move to consider in this position?
It doesn't win it doesn't have prophylaxis and it doen't fit the plan of an opening (develop, safeguard your king, connect rooks), so there is little justification for weakening the d5 square.
Hikaru is a robot: confirmed
Best CZcamsr principle: Show your cute cat!
Where's my cute chesshire cat at?!?!
i did this in 1 minute bullet,
If YoU mast muve king from check.
Then castleing is moving king from check.
BuT that type of re moving king from check by castle ing is NoT allowed.
🙄😏🤔
Focus on spelling first
The subtitles can't understand your accent lol.
Don’t memorize openings. Play only one move ahead. Your opponent can only move one move at a time. Memorizing openings will only hurt your brain!
Notice Me Senpai! 🤩
