That first puzzle there, is the essence of a chess puzzle. There are just the kings and a few pawns, and yet something beautiful arises out of them. That is one of the reasons why I love chess. Karpov was right: chess is an art. Thank you Nelson for showing us this and explaining it, I greatly appreciate it!
its so simple though, if you know basic chess strategies you immediately see what to do, and its not like im high rated, at 870 rn...
@@synka5922 wait really? you calculated all that just by looking at the starting position of the puzzle and knew what to do next immediately?
@@synka5922 sure
@@junyong0716 played it through vs AI - I took ~5-10 mins
5-10 minutes isn’t immediately. It’s so weird that every puzzle there’s someone like “I saw this immediately and I’m not even rated 1000.” I play like 1800-1900 and I had to think about it for a bit.
In that last position it's cool that you get a bishop + knight checkmate in the opposite corner of the bishop, which is not normally possible. However, because of black's extra rook, it avoids stalemate the move before.
This was the First time that I solved a puzzle in my head (with all variations) that Nelson said we probably won’t be able to; big day for me! 🎉
Yes, thank you so much. I can't wait to surprise Magnus with these
Lol
@@CR7GOATofFootball lolol
I bet Magnus will solve these with his eyes closed shut.
@@wesleydeng71 Probably even if we blindfold him before ever showing the board he'll still use his chess god powers to discover the solution 😂😂😂
Me :How many times did you say opposition.
Nelson : Yes
It's a key word of king and pawn endgames 🤣
one of the only puzzles I can figure out was the first one, it was very nice
For the first time, I actually was able to call every correct move in all the positions in the first puzzle. Fairly happy about this.
Just did it too, my low elo brain is impressed with myself
Endgame puzzle is so interesting and fascinating
Love the channel btw, it's a helpful and entertaining way to present chess. The full games are sometimes too much (like, who wants to watch an entire basketball game when a 20-sec highlight is all you need), and the puzzles (the ones with like 46 pawns vs 8 knights) are unnatural and not really chess. This is great because the situations are natural/plausible, and the solutions are still ludicrous and impressive.

Is there ways I know how to make sure I search all variations of a puzzle? I got the right idea for the second puzzle, but I didn't see the Rf8 variation until a few moves later. It would be nice if I could "see" all the variations before I play the video.
Yay new video, deserves 500k subs!
I got most of the first puzzle pretty quickly. The second one stumped me hard.
I think the first puzzle has the type of solution that a strong player would be able to find in a classical game
I swear I thought it says 10 months ago and I was like how is this video got only 13 likes? Until I saw the comments with 10min ago

My craziest wins in Chess was when I gave up the rook a few times. Looked like a blunder each time; I sort of recall the board at a generic key points from 2007 think and 2023 now a good 16 years went by. Simply I could have saved my rook but let the knight go down to A1 to move a pawn forward twice while his Queen was somewhere not a threat. As the Knight would have moved back to where took the rook the pawns were in such a way by the time he noticed what was happening it was an unstoppable now prior stoppable 2nd queen situation for me as I won with 2 Queens. Was on my left side of the board as well. I forgot if I was White or Black. Just the basics I have not forgotten. He never should have took my rook it was worth the sacrifice. Nor have I been in that spot again; to the point me and him also did an hour long chess game with nothing taken ending in a draw as kind of learned it was not always that simple if it looked simple yet funny thing was I bluffed that draw I had nothing to comeback why don't give up; just our history made him 2nd guess when some games should this one was not the case which the human element of history changes allot of things lol.
It's fascinating how complicate such "simple" pawn endings can be. In blitz mode, with low time on the clock, mistakes will show up quickly....😆
Head brain hurts before Nelson even began 😂😂😂
The first puzzle is just bananas.... No matter how much time I have - there is no way I find that :D
I'm gonna be honest, I don't think I ever solved any of your puzzles xD
But I learned a lot uwu
uwu
First puzzle. There is one more defense. WHERE ONLY WIN IS LET BLACK QUEENING FIRST.
3. Kg4 e4!? 4. dxe4 Kf7 5. Kf5 Kg8 6. Kf6 only move. Black g pawn is running and queening first. But loose.
7:30 I called it
10:00 also called the mate there
10:57 i’m on a streak baby
Chess Variant: Random Chess. Difficulty: Expert. How Game Works: Every 5 Moves It Randomised The Moves Of Any Piece. (For Example If It Randomised the pawn so it moves like a knight the other pieces don't get Randomised only the pawn.). And If King Gives Check Or CheckMate With That U Technically CheckMated With A King, So Try It Pls.
Crazy puzzles! :O
in the first puzzle what happends if you convert the pawn into a queen forcing them to take it and making the king be one square more afar so that you can take the pawns?
i think it would not work but i wished he explained why it wouldn’t work
The king is not far enough. If you take either pawn, the black king can transpose to one of the positions shown in the video that is a drawn endgame.
Hey nelson everytime you sent a live video i miss it so can you choose the right time everyday
Please
3:27 Ke7 is still winning, but is a waste of time, simply d4 is faster (and allows for keeping the opposition because the next move is d5 ).
The winning move on puzzle 2 could of also been bishop f5, because if he took the bishop with the rook, you could of moved your knight to put him in check with your rook, then he only could of blocked with his rook, then you would take his rook with your rook and won. Or if he would of moved his king to h6 after you put him in check with bishop f5, then you could move your knight to g4 to put him in checkmate
2...Rh5 3.Bf5+?? loses to 3...Rxf5 which is a check.
7:32 another winning move is pawn to g8 to promte it to the queen and then we can get an opposition
No, g8=Q?? Kxg8, dxe4 (forced) Kg7 and it's Black who has the opposition.
At first puzzle couldnt you play g8=Q to either get their king or waste a move in order for them to get their king in corner???
Me: lets watch some of these chess puzzle vids, maybe ill improve
*after the video*
Me: *hoW THE FU-*
I'd like to understand why opposition at 1:34 is bad and yet at 5:44 it is good.
awesome video
great video
7:35 that is ridiculous !!
4:25
If you move pawn to e5 here then wouldn’t you have the opposition and therefore would be in a winning situation?
Your king is no longer in front of your pawn, so it's a known draw.
Challenge: chess vs martin, except you cannot move any pieces which start on a white square (and you are white)
If I played a game with the first puzzle in it, I wouldn’t have drawn. I’d have probably straight up lost.
7:37 I saw it immediately
7:13 I eliminated that as a possible move because I saw black's follow up move
I so Kf5 immediately, it was obvious that taking the pawn draws
Wow😮
great
D xe4 then after kxg7 doesn’t e5 then opposition’s
The first puzzle is not so hard because you can kind of solve it move by move. You don't need to see the whole solution at the beginning in order to see why the early moves need to be played.
7:07 i said to myself Kh6 and I was correct!😊
The first puzzle is actually not that difficult. Only need to remember the principles of King-Pawn endgame.
i found Kh6 in the first one
Im so proud: I got Kg4 and Kh6
Puzzle 1, all three big moves were my first thoughts..
I am new to the channel hi
Hi "new to the channel hi"
@@meiaio 😂
Welcome to the channel Hrish 👋, don't mind the first guy 😂
Hello
Ok
yay i got to say that i did a zugzwang because of 6:16
My first move is rook to f1
Hi
can't hurt something that doesn't exist 😂
i solved the first one
Why not move the king from f5 to g6?
Because after Kg6, black pushes the g pawn, and then there will be no way to stop black from promoting
You step out of the hunting box for the pawns, meaning if black were to start pushing them, you can't take them with the king.
I solved both puzzles correctly 😎
lmao
My Brain hurts
Me searching for Magnus at the comments:
I think Nelsi is better than magnus in endgames.
You overcomplicated 2nd puzzle. There is checkmate in 2 moves. Knight to f3. If rook takes rook h1 checkmate. If black move king rook h1 checkmate again cuz knight is covering g5.
1.Nf3?? Rxf3 is a check.
@@Rocky64 yes but stupid check, you lose a rook
@@Stranepjeme Nothing stupid about the check since it saves the game for Black. 1.Nf3?? Rxf3+ 2.Ke7 (only way to save the bishop) and moves like 2...Rh3/Re3+/Rhf8 all draw as they leave Black the exchange up, not a rook down as you claimed.
@@Rocky64 doesnt matter, bishop, knight and rook vs rook is a win.
@@Stranepjeme There's no knight left after the blunder 1.Nf3?? Rxf3+. And black still has two rooks. Learn to count the number of pieces.
Who's Magnus Carlsen?
Best clickbate :D
