Chess Master solves chess puzzles (2200's)

[@michaelf8221]

"This feels like a bad puzzle. Yeah I'm not sure how to explain it - not a fan of it." *clicks the thumbs up button*

[@hyperbitcoinizationpod]

exactly

[@KF1]

So much thumbs up ​@@hyperbitcoinizationpod

[@ChessNetwork]

That’s funny. 😊 I’m forgetting that it’s a way to rate the puzzle, clicked upvote out of habit.

[@TheBrawlmastah]

The whole point is to attack the knight which is the only defender of mate. Attack it with the rook after gaining your tempo on the open file. How do you not understand that puzzle???!?​@ChessNetwork

[@warehousedave7937]

​@@TheBrawlmastahhuman error... An oversight maybe? It must be difficult for you to relate to that with your extremely high IQ and chess skills.

[@BingTheGallant]

Hello Jerry, it's everyone.

[@ChessNetwork]

👋

[@ArcaneTricksterRS]

Much more of a fan of these puzzles than the boring mate in two ones

[@BriantWebster]

Love these videos! Keep it up

[@rootsxo]

I saw the rook sacrifice almost straight away with Rh8+ - but missed the part of the sequence where Kb2 is losing due to the forced trade, too excited. Love these vids Jerry!

[@ArcaneTricksterRS]

Are you high?

[@amosdraak3536]

Hey, it’s 2024. Could we maybe please get some New York 1924 chess tournament videos? The hundred year anniversary would be cool. Plus it features the three world champs, and it would be cool if you could show the first of them 3 win a game on this channel after so long

[@Trias805]

9:08 You said it was a bad puzzle, then you gave it a thumbs up

[@artificercreator]

Oh that is very instructive!

[@goldenhawx8652]

I do not remember 2200 puzzles being this complicated haha. I was able to breeze through most of them a couple of years ago. I guess they've increased the difficulty a bit now.

[@ChessNetwork]

Agreed. There’s a definite change in difficulty.

[@elizabethpetrie3066]

I liked ur analysis of ur moves! Please do more it’s very instructive

[@MaestroColucci]

The rook sac was a tough one!!!

[@kshitiz6376]

3rd puzzle really wasn't a bad one. The idea was simply to get the queen off of the d file and we had to use the b-rook because otherwise Qf4 would be a move, forcing queen exchange on the next move. So, the idea was Rd8 and then Rd3 attempting to dislodge the knight to deliver mate.

[@Colefromtheinternet]

I recently passed 2230 on lichess puzzles for the first time. I been practicing for years and I’m pretty proud of it.

[@ChessNetwork]

Congrats! 👍

[@sunrise110]

More please!

[@brianmarrero5147]

I saw this one. I believe the idea here was to play Rd3 after the queen moves and then remove the defender of g2.

[@chessteachersandlearners4458]

I also look at the ratings of the players of the game 1600's vs 2200's create the simpler tactic

[@colin351]

Hi Jerry. Good work, buddy

[@Nobody-df4is]

8:41 I calculated Rd3 after Qb4. Take out the knight. And the computer says its good, but I completely missed c5!! That's a crazy line. Black has better. Instead of Rd3 it is Bh6 or Bd4. But if you pick Bd4 or Rd3, you fail the puzzle if it went into that line. And I don't think that is fair. Both moves are good. You should get awarded with points for those moves. Okay, I didn't explain that very well. Because after Rbd8 the answer is immediately c5 and not Qb4. But there are puzzles that go on and on. You have to pick the absolute best line every move. If you pick a lesser but winning move, you fail and lose rating. That's just ridiculous.

[@ArcaneTricksterRS]

I'm screaming at my screen Qxd7!!

[@AnacondaHL]

9:02 "I'm not a fan of it" Click the Thumbs Down Jerry! That's why it's there!

[@ScottCabernet]

I was really proud that I figured out the 74 puzzle and I also saw the Rd3 move in the 73 puzzle...my own personal streak is in the 60s, maybe it's time to try and go for a new personal best?

[@BillyStewartGuitar]

I was curious why you never examined QxR as a first move as the R recapture revealed R and B mate.

[@joseraulcapablanca8564]

They were tough Jerry, enjoyed solving them with you, got the next to last quite quickly. Thank you sir.

[@kristianminkov9631]

tricky tricky!

[@kehtabpeg]

Hi Jerry, everyone chess master

[@nimrodelbeats]

9:04 I am not fan of this puzzle he says and then upvotes lmao.

[@mattbillenstein]

Gotta thumbsdown those bad puzzles - these are algorithmically generated, so voting them down if they're not good lets them fall out of the rotation eventually.

[@bjarnieinarsson3472]

What? Rbd8 - Qc7 (Qb4) - Rd3 and winning the Knight at least, c5 is forced to open up f1 square etc.

[@roydavis7561]

Hey Jerry, go browns.

[@willywonka6487]

these puzzles show why procedural generation is bad, not that we need more evidence of that

[@phen-themoogle7651]

Ggs

[@slMagnvox]

so great to hear your follow ups on some of these Lichess puzzles, they always left me a little unsatisfied too being computer generated and often ending prematurely

[@deyesed]

They're actually from played games. That's why some of them are iffy, the engine can calculate really far so what it deems a "critical" position can be baffling for humans.

[@slMagnvox]

@@deyesed yeah, I guess I should have said "computer curated" instead of generated to be more specific

[@amosdraak3536]

17 year old channel but still no winning game by Emanuel Lasker? 😅Will that ever change, please? Numerous classic chess games came from him.

[@rawrxd4919]

Im 1800 rapid and 2500 puzzles Idk why I am so good at puzzles for my rating

[@aleksandarknezevic6158]

Becouse you cant find good move in short time and its help if you know that is a puzzle. You are not a learn chess player.

[@howard5992]

in a puzzle we know there is one *best set of moves* so we seek them out and check the results in advance in a game many moves are possible and we seek more "intermediate" moves

[@phen-themoogle7651]

Puzzles are easier than full games. They are only one position at a time and you know it’s the critical position. In a real game you might not realize you have a winning tactic always or could notice it a move too late when under time pressure. If you are solving puzzles on a strict timer though it might be a bit more accurate. I’m also guilty of being higher at puzzles(by a lot) , I made it to 3050 puzzles and I’m only 2000-2100 rapid. That’s like 1000 points difference 😂 My puzzles is lower on lichess though since they are usually harder there or I solved less.

[@kamilhorvat8290]

Is Jerry drunk? He sounds a bit off.
