@rxw5520 9 месяцев назад

I’ve studied chess casually on and off for years, I’ve read beginner books, watched hundreds of videos and played thousands of games, and whenever people discuss how to analyze a position, I’ve NEVER heard anyone just simply say “notice the pieces on your half of the board and neutralize them”. I mean sure you notice where pieces are, but most of us low-intermediates when we see a position, we count material, count attackers and defenders of everything, look for checks, forks, skewers, look to pin something, etc. If none of this jumps out, it’s like ok what now? Increase piece activity? Pawn break?? This idea of neutralizing opponents pieces in your territory “should” be assumed, but it isn’t, so thanks for pointing it out. Failure to address this has caused me a lot of losses as I neglect the first piece into my territory and it snowballs into brutal tactics and mate threats.

You're the first comment I've read - and I tip my hat to you! I just resumed playing after decades of aversion to the game and judging from your comments, you're light-years ahead of me in study, puzzles, and competition. I don't feel like I've been looking for shortcuts, but I have been seeking principles that I can regularly apply with the necessary flexible mindset. Your comment arrested me because with all your experience and exposure, you're telling me that none of the experts you've read or heard simplified board vision to, "Neutralize invaders." I know it's more complicated than that - but man, with all the complexities and nuances of this game, it's nice to latch on to something that seems simple and common sense. Let me end by saying that it seems common sense is an uncommon commodity. Thanks for your comment.

@jongler9775 9 месяцев назад

This advice is pure gold. About the last puzzle, I would say Rxg7+ If king takes the rook, you fork with the Knight and take the black queen. If it doesn't take, he gets mated in a few moves. Crazy stuff.

@mysticseven6578 8 месяцев назад

I saw that, but is the attempt much of a gain for white? The captures end in white trading a knight and rook for a queen, while black’s pawn structure remains in tact going into the end game. Sure, a queen and rook have the potential to rip those pawns apart if they can infiltrate black’s territory, but black still seems to have fighting chances. I’m not sure if it’s a notable enough win for white. (Though for all I know stockfish has this position as a mate in 5 or something.)

@grenvthompson 8 месяцев назад

@@mysticseven6578 Stockfish says Rxg7 is the only winning move at around +7.5 - after the trade you also get dxc5, giving yourself a passed pawn - and adding 2 pawns to the trade (don't forget the original pawn the rook took). Also Stockfish says g6 by Black is slightly better than Nf6 - but white plays Re1 and Qe2 and has a lot of threats that black cannot properly defend.

@ThePatriots010304 8 месяцев назад

It's 100% worth it because white trades a knight and rook for the queen and 2 pawns with a passed pawn on C5. It's a queen and rook vs 2 rooks and a knight with white also being up 2 pawns. Black is in horrible shape and can't sufficiently defend this position. It's winning every single time for white.

@heesable 8 месяцев назад

what about Ne6?@@mysticseven6578

@bradallen1762 8 месяцев назад

@rasmachris94 8 месяцев назад

I think the principle here is 'most active' rather than just simplifying it down to whatever is on your side of the board. It's whatever is applying pressure to your side of the board in terms of threat potential. A queen staring across the board with none of their pieces on your side is most likely the biggest threat, then rook/bishop. If you have a knight on your side of the board that's obviously going to be your main concern. When you distil a game down to board states like the one at 5:33 the rooks dont have line of sight to apply pressure, neither does the queen and the knights are too far away to make a one turn impact. The only piece that is aiming down sights at your pieces is the bishop. And assuming that the bishop didnt have a line of sight to your pieces, you should be concerned about pawn breaks to open up the sight lines of their more powerful pieces. so locking the pawns in place so they have to make a mistake in moving their more powerful pieces into disadvantageous spots would be best.

@jhcmusicii6181 8 месяцев назад

This is the kind of Grandmaster advice that most Grandmaster keep a secret. Thank you it makes analyzing high level games more understandable. I've always noticed that even the best chess players don't really calculate better until the end game when there are fewer pieces but they somehow manage to get the advantage early on in a game. This is one way how. Amazing. I'm my own games I've noticed that the piece in my territory while not a threat initially the opponent will sooner or later find a way to hang you with it. It's limited my chess rankings to a max of 1650 at my best because I never even thought of the idea of neutralizing a threat. I'm more of a bring down the hammer kind of a player. Problem of course if I don't handle that threat then the opponents hammer might be faster than mine.

@cronoscraiss330 8 месяцев назад

Well I found it good that way he did it.. because this forced us a bit to think for ourselves and to see that we eventually not yet think the way Fisher does, as we might consider other moves. Also he actually does say, that he will show the rule just in a bit, and then he goes through those examples once again. So you really experience the difference of finding moves using the new rule. ❤

Makes sense. Most of us under 1500 ELO tend to ignore what our opponent is doing until it’s too late. We’re so caught up in our own tactics, we get caught off guard. So addressing the attacker proactively solves this problem without having to figure out our opponent’s idea.

@sa9245 4 месяца назад

I feel like my problem is I'm one or the other. I can play defensively and try to stop my opponent from doing what they want. Or I can try and create an attack for myself. But if I'm playing defensive I feel like I'm too passive and I don't get to create opportunities to attack or even simple counter play. I basically feel like I'm on the back foot for the entire game and my hope is that they create their own problems. Either by a straight up blunder or even just over extending themselves too much.

@eatyourfuckingcereal9362 8 месяцев назад

Also remember that offense is sometimes the best defense. Instead of exchaging, you can try to create an even bigger threat on the enemy's side and neutralizing their attacking piece that way.
