@Norvegicus7 Thanks for your kind comment, I'm glad you like my videos. Sure, to get better you need to have passion and love of chess that allows you to train and play chess without counting the hours. A good training tool could be the chess software Chess King as well as some Tactics Training programs. I use them and they help.
I like the design of the pieces very simplistic. no pointy hat and the collars are nice and rounded if they were to fall on the floor i dought you would even see a chip.
The design I beleive is called the German Knight set.
@tonycomeau622 The time control was the official FIDE blitz time control, 3 + 2, which means 3 minutes for the whole game + 2 seconds added each move. It about the same as 5 minutes per game but it's better because it avoids the risk of losing on time with very large material advantage.
I'm not really experienced but could You explain me who come that blonde girl moves(6:39) from F7 to F5 and other woman hits it from E5 to F6 is it some kind of rule I don't know? coz I thought it would be possible to hit it to F6 only if a pawn would be on F6. Thanks
@kofeinas Sure, it's a rare move, called "en passant", when you can take a pawn as if it had moved 1 square. Check the exact rules on Wikipedia (search for chess en passant capture). There are very few special moves in chess, castling is one, and en passant is another.
@Nunchucks67 There are wires going from the board and from the clock, because they are electronic chess boards and clocks, and they are connected to a server that can shows the games and the time on the clock live on internet. Nowadays almost all important tournaments are live on the web to thousands of chess fans, who can watch the games exactly as if they were right there looking at the board and clock.
@ChessQueen gunina did 2 greats mistaks n thats why kosteniuk won..... i know that thats is the diff between blitz (fast) and normal chamship......... but if u analizy the game gunina got a lil advantage.
I'm starting to get the hang of this game but I am still unable to think ahead and anticipate my opponent's moves. I know a good chess player must always be one move ahead. I feel like I'm missing the insight good chess players have. Any tips on how I can get better?
@JohnBlack666id Chess is a very fair game - practice daily and you will most certainly get better. Write down your moves when you play chess, then review the game with someone a little stronger than you and ask him/her where you could have played better. Each time you play you will enjoy it more and win more! Good luck!
@JohnBlack666id practice, practice, and more practice, and there are some good chess books out there as well, and also, finding a strong chess player and having lessons, studying openings, middle game, and end game, and also writing down some of your games and having someone go over them w you, studying your weaknesses, mistakes in chess are inevitable, it's about capitalizing on your opponents mistakes before they capitalize on yours, good luck and most important, have fun in chess and life :)
She blundered a rook =_=...this why I value knight over bishop 25% of the time, bishop over knight 25% and even 50% of the time. Most people value bishops more, but I don't. Dead even or knights are better
Trying to understand this game better but can't find it on chessgamescom... There is another very similar game but it's from the 60th Russian Women's Superfinal.
@suzanneramdane I won this game with white. At the end it's a simple theoretical win King + Pawn against King. The pawn will be promoted to a Queen and mate will follow. That's why Gunina resigned.
I love watching you play...you are intently focused on the game & nothing else (apparently)...totally in the zone!! I'm sure its not easy at times with people all around, cameras, etc etc.
I have been watching the body language of your opponents: they seem very nervous, and a little apprehensive. You seem very calm and collected, perhaps it is because you are so focused. By the way, you went for the combination starting with; Rxe7... Rxe7 Nh5 threat is mate ... f5! exf6 Rf7. Was this your intuition or did you calculate this? Also nice fork at the end !
there it is at 6.09 didnt your opponent have knight to d2 threatening the rook with a nasty attack with the queen also threatening knight toi f3 which also looks pritty good ???? im not saying its a great move but i would be gratefull if someone could explain why this wasnt chosen ??
that laidy playing black played really well i think she was winning the start, i think there was a time when she could have played a knight onto the secong rank getting an attack on the rook with the queen, ¬!!! obviously bad move but looked good to a beginner !!
okay this might sound stupid why are they pressing that button every time they finish with their move? is it like recording their move or is it time? if it is recording wouldn't video recording much better? if it is time what the hell? there is a timer?
@Myoldnamesdontwork It's a chess clock, to measure time. Chess games are played with a limited amount of time for both players (otherwise the losing player might think "forever" to avoid losing), for example 5 minutes for the whole game, or 1 hour for the whole game. If time runs out, you lose the game, regardless of the position on the board. This blitz game was played at 3 minutes for the whole game per player plus 2 seconds increment time per move.
@ChessQueen okay...so there is time but how do you solve the problem of looping in chess? you know what i mean sometimes you and your opponent just repeat three different move and it is unending...like you know checking your king with a queen and keep looping it or something...that would take "forever" so when you have more time than your opponent all u need is loop by checking king and u win!
@Myoldnamesdontwork I'm not too sure what you mean by "looping", I guess repeating the same position over and over. There is a rule in chess "draw by three-fold repetition", if the position repeats itself 3 times, one of the players has the possibility to call the arbiter and request a draw. In big matches usually an arbiter is always close by. To avoid "conceding" a draw, one needs to make different moves (to avoid 3 times the same position), and that's quite hard to do when little time is left
@kokudouful For those of you who don't speak Japanese (like me), this is what Google Translate says it corresponds to: "Chess - I work out really well. Kosutenyuku indeed! ! Tactical move, but could not understand at all, just awesome win by a single pawn! ! It was pleasant match was like the other players do not give up until the end."
@foxlimacharlie That's called the "en passant" pawn capture. Check wikipedia to find out how it's done. In chess there are only two "strange" moves 1) Castling, where you move simultaneously King & Rook, and 2) En passant, where you can take a pawn immediately after it moves 2 squares as if it had moved 1 square. Exact definitions are online! It's great you're learning chess, good luck in your study!
Dang, that sucks cause I was voting for the blond the whole time. I hate it when people make bullshit sacrifices and then I start winning the endgame, and will give it back with a silly blunder.
@Phplover1 Sure it's possible to play ches much faster. However the goal is to play as high quality chess as possible given the little time you get in a blitz game.
@ChessQueen Hi Alexandra I notice your hands are held to your face to aid concentration - but do you think it is good sometimes to also "Step back" from the board? I think it was Alekhine who even used to get up and look at position from opponens point of view occasionally =) [perhaps not in blitz LOL, that'd be a bit chaotic...] I like your videos :)
@TheBirdBrothers Sure it's useful sometimes to step back, but not in blitz :-) Some players also close their eyes or look to the side, and imagine the position in their minds.
@noxtradamentus to make sure that a move is made before the clock is pressed. the board has pressure sensors, so that it will be able to detect a move.
@noxtradamentus because it is a special board that is conected to the computer,so every move is transfered to the monitor to people see it there and in the internet.
