"Lots of learning opportunities" this is exactly what I needed to hear today. I'm on a losing streak and started to feel very discouraged. Thank you!

[@ChessVibesOfficial]

Hang in there! Happens to all of us from time to time. As long as you learn from the mistakes, even losses benefit you in the long run. 👍

[@andrewwong6500]

Yea that’s life. I also was in that situation 1 month ago

[@Thuyngle]

Same here, good to know I'm not alone!

[@Miesko1]

Even the greatest chess players in the world started out terrible

[@Matcha649]

in chess you win, or you learn (winning is also learning but you get the point)

[@fromant65]

I really like the way you explain chess. It's so relaxed and methodical

[@dkpandey1996]

I needed this; I haven't been analyzing my games in the most optimal way! Great explanation 👍

[@Elevator_Fudd]

10:40 was an epiphany for me! I have been hearing all kinds of advice from various players, both of similar ratings, up to GM's tell me not to use the engine. I was feeling overwhelmed while trying to analyze my games, and didn't know where to turn. Your advice has made so much sense to me. It makes perfect sense I don't know why I didn't see this idea sooner in my chess improvement journey! I've said it before...Keep the great content coming!!!

[@AGL23]

This is by far one of the BEST chess videos I've seen. I'm just learning now. I'm around 1200. I think analyzing my games like this will help! THANKS! :)

[@scionli1859]

[@christianewing1113]

Nice, thanks a lot. You have the best tutorials. You make everything much easier to understand. Especislly in your Blunders video. I hope you make more blunders videos and some more tactics videos. I still have a lot of practice to do, i'm only like a 900-1000 player.

[@brianlabode4415]

Excellent Nelson !! Watched many other videos where they say not to follow the computer moves as they don’t make any sense to us humans. U have just reversed my thoughts on doing what u say 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

Thanks for the content bro

[@3AdaptationAcademy3]

Thanks for the well put explanation.

[@Ray-ku1sj]

Nelson, just a short note to say I really enjoy your videos, and have learned a lot from them. This one was just what I was looking for, as it told me the reasons why some of my moves were good or bad. Keep up the good work. Ray

[@ChessVibesOfficial]

Thanks, Ray, glad you're learning some stuff here!

[@sayankumar2040]

That is great video! Most chess videos are dumping of a ton of advanced data, that esp. newer player don't even have the capacity to process (or perhaps only few % of all). But this is very thought provoking one, which I really love! Cheers!

[@Chessdrummer83]

Hi Nelson, another great video! I really like this method of analysis, Im going to try it. Last night in a game the report said I had a missed win, so I looked over the game slowly for 10+ minutes and couldnt find it.. turns out it was right at the end where I thought I was lost, it was a very hard move to find (I think) If I used your method it would make my analysis a lot more efficient

[@ChessVibesOfficial]

Thanks, rockford! Glad you found it helpful, good luck with future game analysis 👍

[@emademaad8179]

This is really good ! since a lot of time when I check analysis and it says mistakes I didn't know exactly why !

[@terrortalks3037]

This is a good way of training your brain to see possibilities, using the engine and tempering it to your intuition so you're not just 1) doing the moves the computer tells you to do, learning nothing or 2) playing a losing game against the engine (like I've been doing)

[@tfewald01]

As with much good advice, everything you say here is obvious - AFTER you've said it. Thank you. Very good video.

[@neilhess2518]

This I really helpful. Thank you. I do have a question: I'm old school and want to do analysis on my local pc, what program would you recommend that would allow me to do this AND keep notes (ie "Left a knight hanging") so that way I can see patterns of mistakes over lots of games? Thank you!

[@kevinbecker8016]

Yes it was great. What other, how to study, videos you got?

AWESOME !!!!

[@Springer5]

Hello. Thank you for this video. I'm very new to chess and this is the only video I've found that breaks the process down in an easy to understand way for me . Just one thing though... I can't get how this helps play better in future (totally different) games. If you learn that you should have done this or that in THAT game can that really just automatically help you make better choices in OTHER games with completely different moves. Every game is the first time right? It obviously works but what do I do after I've discovered that in THAT game I should have moved the Queen there. Those pieces in exactly those places will probably never happen again. Thanks for a great explanation of the process though. Best I've seen.

[@phillipimsdahl3563]

Very helpful thanks I am very new and have mostly been doing puzzles and was wondering if I could play out alternative puzzles using that same program. I get frustrated when I think I see a sound way to play out the puzzle but it won't allow my move.

Hey I understood that this time around =P

[@alexanderxyz6146]

4:18 or just use the evaluation bar? thre you can see big changes much quicker because its eye catching and a picture, so if that bar jumps it's very clear.

[@Acncan]

Great video. Where i ran into some confusion is i did not have a settings button to set lines at three or depth at twenty two. Thanks for making the content. if anyone knows why that button is missing for me or in general hmu

[@danielyuan9862]

I went to my most recently played game and analyzed my moves more thoroughly using this technique. And there was a "blunder" I made that ended up with the game being a dead draw. Originally, I though it was because the knight could fork my rook and queen, but a further analysis showed that my opponent had a brilliant move that forced a perpetual check. If it wasn't for that very specific move in that specific variation, I would still be winning. My opponent found the knight fork, but missed the brilliant move. I missed both 😂

[@stephentuck6607]

Great video Nelson. What do you think about clicking on 'Report' which shows up mistakes and blunders and "moments" gives you key moments in your game where you can 're-try' to guess the best move, or 'hint' where it shows the piece you should be moving, or 'best move' where it just shows what you should play?

[@ChessVibesOfficial]

I will use the Game Report occasionally when I don't have much time and just want to quickly see the big mistakes. If I have more time I will usually do the self analysis and kind of just do my own thing. Hope that helps!

[@stephentuck6607]

@@ChessVibesOfficial I really like the way you do analysis. I appreciated your comment that sometimes the computer/engine’s evaluation isn’t totally accurate when still in the first few moves. The idea of watching for big (1.0+) swings in the engine evaluation is a great tip.
