Hi Nelson have you done a video on the bishop pair against rooks in the late middle/end game. I am amazed at how difficult bishops can be against rooks in this scenario.
Who is the elderly chess player in the thumbnail?
19:53 I actually didn't know all squares the king passes over during castling should not be attacked π«’
Excellent video–thank you!
concur with most. however your last lesson with pushing b4 is a bust. After b4, you have Bxb4 then what? and how does being down that pawn benefit white? Feedback appreciated
you described b4 first which appears to be a mistake??? No?
you lose your pawn and that benefits what? minority attack….?
However I do appreciate your videos.
Your last lesson pertaining to a minority attack B4 is a mistake especially seeing Bxb4 follows and then you are just simply down a pawn. No? your reasoning behind b4 being good? Does the black bishop taking it for free weaken blacks position? Please give another video explaining what happens after the black bishop takes? Or is a3 to come before b4? More in depth thoughts on the matter.

Ah yes, the minority attack against black pieces. What a great choice of words.
why do you call it "pork" defence

Chess is like golf, which is
A long walk spoilt
Chess
Is a longer sit spoilt
you are the superb content creator i found these concepts by experience in about 3 years and taught me this in 21 minsβ€π«‘π«‘
Regarding trading off the fianchettoed bishop – the only thing I don't understand is why everyone doesn't do that as soon as they can, and why people who fianchetto their king's bishop don't immediately either retreat the bishop to h8 (or h1 for White), or else move the rook away so the bishop can retreat if needed.
Nice video!

How to Play like Stan Lee? Didn't know the guy was a chess legend. π€·πΎββοΈ
Over 30 years of playing chess… but you look 17. Did I hear that right?
great tips
Whats the best move after e4d5? Or d4e5? I gets me everytime
I watch videos on Chess like yours helps me to relax playing is fun or really winning is fun losing not fun so Iβll take a break from playing watch GM Games or even just play against the computer playing on line you are matched against better players weaker players etc I know I still have a lot to learn losing only motivates me to comeback and play stronger
best video by far for beginners
Great information clearly explained
I'm part of the way through this video, and although I have an understanding of these ideas so far, you really bring them out and solidify them well. Thanks π
Thanks, I'm going to use your 21 principles for my next YouTube video post. I appreciate the inspiration.
You're superb
