Chess Master Explains Thought Process (Blitz On Chess.com)

[@PapaRich3165]

Missed the poll but definitely prefer rapid over blitz. Always great to see though. :-)

[@larryhalllith1179]

I think there's more to learn from 10 min games vs 5 min games.

[@ashleyharris4114]

Ofc there is, but Blitz can still be useful. However one could also argue that one cannot learn as much from Rapid as they can from Classical.

[@larryhalllith1179]

Yes, I agree. Thanks.

[@WaldoWizard]

yeah those 5 min games are so fast there's little thought process to share . And Nelson's always running out of time anyway 😆

[@michaelmoe8656]

Blitz, and even more so bullet, exposes what I think is essentially move biases since you work more off gut reactions. By learning those biases and checking them against engine moves, you can develop a better instinct for good moves, while longer games train calculating more. Both calculation and instinctual play seem valuable, so working on both makes sense to me.

[@toothlessrpm6177]

@@ashleyharris4114and one can also argue that you can learn more from daily than classical. Too far 🤔 😂

[@jayvaibhawverma]

Well played, Nelson. Watched the entire stream live for the first time.

[@PapaRich3165]

Hr monitor + treadmill gambit. 😅

[@mistyshadow100]

Don't know if it's actually him but Jack Wilshere is a very famous retired footballer. Just a side note

[@lanceandersson5956]

I reckon it is. If Jack at 19 has the game intelligence to boss Xavi, Iniesta and Busquets in their prime then a board game should be no problem for him.

[@ajcaleb28]

Love that he played the London too 😂

[@jasonsiebold]

Yes to heart rate monitor. And 10 is better than 5 I think for learning.

[@xc3ptiona1]

A heart rate monitor! Hang up some metaphorical Christmas lights, glam up the content. 🤜🤛

[@loveistheanswer5924]

I dont like blitz. Longer games like 30 or 60 minutes are better because you have time to think! 🙂

[@mareezy]

Great idea on HR monitor!

[@stereomike75]

The game that starts at 38 minutes - you didn't follow your own rule about getting the king to safety early, plus you played the whole game without bringing either rook into the action.

[@CastleLateOrNever]

Arena tournaments please so we get a rating range!

[@mareezy]

Where's the super quick Halloween Gambit game? I can't find it

[@danbarkles8499]

Rage quitting like that is a baby move. You're twice as much of a loser if you do that. Also Nelson you should play against the guy that does chess dawg.

[@CanadianMaple05]

Please do a heart rate monitor! And 10 is better than 5. I often wish you played 10+5 even, so that you always have enough time closer to the end of the game.

[@WaldoWizard]

heart rate monitor ... wow .. and you can get on your walking machine too . Full coverage

[@WaldoWizard]

he should change his name from maxichess to Maxipad 😅

[@Kelly-i5z9g]

A rage quit. lol I get those more than you should.

[@hannesmuller6994]

please get a heart rate tracker🙏

[@asztapaszta9]

Lol, Reyenllamas is 1164 at puzzles - i guess he is just a natural who doesnt need tactics...

[@kidopants]

Heart rate monitor would be interesting

[@garvingray]

I was hoping for 3 mins plus 2 secs per move

[@garvingray]

And still wanting Nelson to enter a Swiss tournament, not Arena

[@breedingpitmetal]

1:20:01 2500 rated player misses a completely free rook just straight up hanging. Blitzchess is WILD.

[@govindsinghtomar2516]

Pls play one match against Gotham chess that's requeste from my side plz ....

[@mojangfuel6907]

Yuup heart rate monitor would be soo cool

[@lordelk]

Did u know you can finish abandoned games using the bots. Then we can see how it plays out.

[@danamiller1192]

34:48 im like isnt rook b8 the best move even though its still a worse postion

[@tomhepner5118]

How do I find and watch the games live? I joined Stalematers but still can't find the way in. 😕

[@giridharpavan1592]

rice cooking all the time

[@Kelly-i5z9g]

It is a good idea.

[@GoldenBoyXCM]

pls dont get a heartrate monitor, i dont watch eric just because of that

Why?

[@Omariesht]

Hey Nelson, do you know any idea how to overcome the fear of losing elo ? Because it became a wall to me from practicing the knowledge i got Every time i need to think about clicking new game button my body gets shaking then i close the app i don't fear of losing in general, i fear of seeing my elo decrease after 20 minutes of thinking

[@AmarParadvaz]

Likewise here.

[@AnanyaKumarNayak]

First play one two unrated game after that play rated one 😊
