Don't underestimate the power of a good sacrifice!

Ok! Where did you learn this?!

I swear to god castling doesn’t work

I understand that technically rooks are minor pieces but they're my 3rd favorite after Queens and Knights. They compliment the Queen really well on offense, they're great support pieces, and they can be black or white. Bishops can be hard to find angles with in my playstyle, especially if the center is contested

Danke!

Hey there! Thanks for the video! I'll be back again :))

thanks for clarifying 😊

I hope I can use these.

Such a good tutorial! Thank you.

Thank you!

The game is played and won in the center of the board, moves away from the center are weak. Keep the initiative, if white doesn't lose it, only takes one move to win. My one chess book, Chess Opening: Theory and Practice, first time I played my 8th grade self beat the senior, who beat everyone else till I volunteered to play my first game. Learned to play by watching him beat everyone else.

very nice principle

Very helpful principles. Thank you for this video!!

best chess video Ive watched

Good stuff. Thank you!


If I may add one more it would be beware of the knights. Those buggers can cover the entire board span in two moves, are quite unpredictable, checks can't be blocked, forks, etc. Twisted invention. Surely better than Bishops, but I feel safer when I don't have to worry about them anymore.

I missed the 29 principal. It went from 28 to 30.

This was great thanks

expand, connect, control

Wow, this is incredibly insightful! Thank you, Nelson for breaking down those principles in such a clear way.

I only clicked on this video to state one thing. There is no such thing as "35" principles on any one subject!! 😮

I find i win a lot more games if i can sacrifice a knight or bishop for two pawns that allows me to push my pawns thru. It usually means i lose another minor piece to finally get a queen but it still works out usually

Really great video. I learned a lot and feel more confident now I have a road map. Thank you and I wish you well.

I will beat u 😂

NOW YOU SHOULD DECIDE

Hello friend, do you know that there is life after death and heaven and hell fire are real?

Your decision today will determine where you spend eternity after physical death.

Soon it will be too late to make a decision to accept Jesus Christ and be saved.

No matter how far you may have gone in sin, God already did something to help you.

He gave Jesus Christ who knew no sin to die for your sins so you can be forgiven and treated as though you never sinned.

It is now your personal choice to either accept or reject Jesus Christ and all He has done to save you.

Please accept Him now before it becomes too late.

Say this simple prayer

'Oh God, I come to you in simple repentance. I agree I have sinned and deserve judgement but I am glad Jesus died for my sins. Today I accept this payment and confess and acknowledge Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior. I declare by faith I am saved, forgiven and declared righteous.

Hallelujah!

Congratulations and welcome to God's family.

Join a church in your area, read your bible, give time to prayers, live to please God and tell others about Jesus Christ who saved you.

Wouldn't adjacent pawns on the same rank also all be considered backward pawns, since they cannot protect each other?

I guess I'm a great player. I use those same rules and never lose.

super helpful and informative, you communicated all of this very transparently, thank you!

I am a volunteer school chess teacher. I'd like to incorporate 'check, capture, and threat' into these principles ... suggestion on how to do it?

Im missing the first and most important Principle:
Always check what your opponents move is doing.

I'm new here, although not new to chess. Great vid.

Love this man. Thanks!

Great information

Very cool. Thanks.

Brilliant advices. Thanks a lot!

why are you so gay?

very helpful video，excellent illustration

I was forced to play chess at school.
I hate it with an infinite eternal passion.
Stupid game

He skips principle 29 and goes straight to 30. So there are only 34 principles in this video. Principle 29 is: trade your passive pieces for your opponents active pieces. Which is not explained.

The phrase “trade your passive pieces for your opponent’s active pieces” in chess suggests a strategic principle. In general terms, it means that if you have chess pieces that are not contributing actively to your position (passive pieces), you might consider exchanging (trading) them for your opponent’s pieces that are more actively placed on the board.

Active pieces are those that control key squares, exert influence, and generally contribute more effectively to the overall position. By exchanging passive pieces for active ones, you aim to improve your position and increase the overall strength of your army on the board.

It’s a strategic guideline encouraging players to assess the activity and effectiveness of their pieces, making thoughtful trades to enhance their position.

very helpful!

Your principle #34 I first heard years ago as Dr Emanuel Lasker’s best (imo) advice: “When you see the good move, look for the better one.”

Very nice summary

Fantastic tutorials. Thank uou for sharing. I will forward this excellent Lesson immediately to my two Grandsons who are 'slowly' winning me.😂😂

Loved it!
