How To STOP OPENING TRAPS! | Chess Rating Climb 1051 to 1083

[@ltsgobrando]

The best series on KZbin!!!! Always great to see an AverageJoe hard work ❤

[@slartiste]

Agree. I love watching these games.

[@bobTom37]

His way of explaining things and teaching is so easily digestible.

[@TheRealChiults]

Sometimes I actually feel bad liking AverageJoe because Peter-Patzer may get jealous...after watching his climb three times I developed kind of a friendship to him 😅

[@drewfenton866]

Now I need a new plan for my Monday morning

[@ofeklev9859]

Was stuck on 600-700 elo for a few months now, ever since i got to watch your series i broke through 1000 for the first time. Best teacher no doubt.

[@theliamofella]

Yes, he takes the time to consider all options even the bad options that he wouldn’t play and speaks what is running through his mind ✌️👍

[@haleymartin9342]

I blundered a perpetual OTB tonight by not simplifying fast enough. Wish I had seen this stream first!

[@patricke.987]

Holy sh*t! The Kozio defense??? I had to look that one up! Thanks bro that was a real new one! Much appreciated!

[@AdamGreaves37]

You forgot the aura stat brother 🐐

[@claygerrard]

“As long as you don’t blinder something” oh the salt! 😂

[@MrOnosa]

I've really enjoyed playing the Cozio Defense in my games. I'm right at the Elo level of your current opponents, and had good luck with it. I have less luck using the Polish Defence, though.

[@mariuszpudzianowski8400]

The line with bishop taking knight early in the first game looks interesting for white as there is one less defender near the king.

[@jpc812]

I am a solid blundering 1000 rated player. And it seems the similarly rated ppl I am playing against don't make the same mistakes as are often show here against you, Nelson. They play like grandmasters and inevitably I end up blundering something and then I lose against them. I do love your content though. You are a regular watch for me whenever you post anything. Keep it up, I am learning much from you.

[@joachimfrank4134]

Perhaps they are National Masters masking as average Joe.

[@belue2429]

One reason they blunder more with Nelson is because he causes them lots of problems. He makes things complicated, rarely miscalculates anything, and is very accurate! He plays the moves that causes them to blunder basically. 😊

[@Divinevert]

Yeah. I play a high accuracy rating at around 800, but it's because I'm playing vs similar 800s and we don't have tactics like Nelson does to create very complicated situations.

[@NJDJ1986]

@48:21 and Nelson sacrificed THE ROOOOOOOOOK! ‼️‼️ that was brilliant tactic by Nelson!

[@alexwangombe8534]

It took me a while to find the move when he said to pause the video, but i’m glad I did, it was so satisfying! now if only i could find moves like that in my own games!

[@Chunes3]

That second game was wild. One of the most entertaining games I've seen

[@Chomta]

35:16 that's an common continuation in Stafford. This game was transposed to Stafford would have been easier if you have watched Stafford gambit videos

[@JustRightPinedo]

You got a video rec I can watch to learn it?

[@Chomta]

@@JustRightPinedo I don't have, but you can watch Eric rosen's they're pretty good! (Also I was not trying to be mean to Nelson, in fact he's the one who made me go from 500 to 1600. So why would I insult him)

[@andrewbennett5911]

Another instructive video ! Many thanks , things starting to slowly sink in !!

[@JustRightPinedo]

35:53 stockfish just casually moving the king to the side to protect the knight by enabling Q pinned to K is brilliant

[@Ryland-tu6pj]

What if I’m the one doing the opening traps then my enemies will not fall for it😭

[@belue2429]

Nelson calculates so fast and so accurate. Imagine what’s going through his brain that he can’t get out in words, I’m sure a ton!

[@jhbonarius]

Love this series, learned so much! Thank you

[@90sK1dFOr3v3r]

Why does this feel like a reupload? Got some deja vu going. Woah!

[@RhombicChthulhuSONIC]

Your feelings must be delusional?

[@PapaRich3165]

Ditto

[@shadeburst]

Cool deflection on Game #87. I will try to add that to my mating pattern library!

[@user-im4tj9qu8j]

Thanks!

[@ChessVibesOfficial]

Thank you!

[@user-im4tj9qu8j]

@@ChessVibesOfficial thank you for the instructive, entertaining channel. Keep up the good work.

[@jfryer485]

Stockfishes destruction of black at 50 minutes is incredible targeting the enemy rook with Queen and Bishop.

[@sean3533]

The second game was so aggressive, very fun to learn!

[@ศกรโสมาภา]

Can you add Czech Benoni? I want to see some close position games as well.

[@jstop311]

really enjoying this series. thank you!

[@fvolcansek]

So I had a thought that I’ve wanted to share. You are completely right about players rated around 1000. I really feel your loss was due to Rice. I am mentioning it now because it has bugged me ever since I watched that video. Finally I just wanted to say that I love your videos. I’ve really benefited from watching how you think and analyze the board. Thank you!!

[@gdoak1836]

I like to use the phrase "biting on granite" ever since reading the Chernev book 😂

[@kirkobrien2979]

Can you add the King's Indian? Miss seeing this since your last rating climb, thanks!

[@NJDJ1986]

dude how did you get to watch this video 10 hours ago when it was just uploaded for 6 minutes?

[@Uhnonimaus]

​​@@NJDJ1986 He has a member badge, so the video must have been uploaded already and made available to channel members early.

[@NJDJ1986]

@@Uhnonimaus hmm makes sense

[@minkman1770]

I want to watch the AverageJoe rating climb in order. I am finding it frustrating to find the next one each time on KZbin. Peter Patzer rating climb had a play list which I finally found. I thoroughly enjoyed it! It made it really easy. Could you let me know how to find the next sequential video?

[@ChessVibesOfficial]

The playlist for this one should be on the home page.

[@user-cv9il8by7w]

Big big thanks :) waiting for more

[@Hotobu]

What I've just started to do is find Nelson's account and play out each move in the explorer tab to see how good some of the moves are. This also lets me play out some scenarios where I think certain moves would be better.

[@AkihabaraWasteland]

"That's a stockfish move if ever I've seen one."

[@andyclark8991]

What a cool and awesome video love your videos mate.

[@mr.minnesoulja1257]

Love your content Nelson!

[@plazaratbaza]

Game 2 was my fav game in the series lol

[@christianfrost8660]

Stockfish went crazy this episode.

[@sesagaming7348]

Nelson, can you play the Latvian gambit at some point please?

[@ChessKing999-YT]

What means rice in the stats????

[@hhhhhhhhhhhhh566]

I would like to see carokan defense and queens gambit in the next video ❤❤

[@miguelfreitas4257]

Thank you for the series, it's definetly helping my game watching your videos. I would like to see diferent gambits (more "respectful" ones) like budapest, portuguese, benko from black perspective and smith-morra, danish or Evans from white. Keep going with the good work 👍

[@miguelfreitas4257]

Thats what happens when you dont finish the video, you played a danish 😅

[@claygerrard]

“And blunder a rook” 😂

[@ChessKing999-YT]

11:53 if you played f4 you trapped the rook isnt it??

[@alberte.neutzstein1780]

Greetings from Germany

[@WestCoastWalker-zj6ob]

Here's an idea ... livestream a game against Stockfish in which you take suggestions from your viewers ... see if all of us together can beat Stockfish?

[@trueblue4]

51:51 my retired English teacher mother would love you for this restatement. Or should I say, she would love that restatement of yours. And love you, too. Why not

[@Wtfzipcode]

hey can you have the "next video" slides not cover on going games? long term fan

[@sh0ker]

30:30 white almost have pawn e7 here. If the king was not defending the rook, this would be very scary, but I guess that would also be just simple back rank checkmate

[@fighter0707]

Hello, Just wanted to drop by and say how are you doing ? As always love watching these series! :)

[@felipeurrego987]

Play the traxler!

[@thetransferaccount4586]

he's above average joe now

[@nb-eq6rw]

Please play the old Benoni. It is my favourite opening and I am consistently 1500 in blitz and 1800 in rapid minimum. I like playing 1. d4 c5 2. d5 e5

[@nb-eq6rw]

I would also be interested in Modern Benoni repertoire as I am much more familiar in forced openings like Jobava London and old Benoni

[@b005t3r]

In the last game (Jobava London) your opponent didn't capitalise on Bf5, but you definitely shouldn't play that move against this opening :)

[@wyattthecatlover]

If I couldnt see Nelsons rating I would probably think he is Magnus Carlsen in disguise.

[@Alex9501950]

Obligatory KZbin algorithm comment

[@natelouderback7329]

Poor 1000 doesn't know the Jobava theory for BF5... we missed out on seeing the Pawn Storm!

[@chiller465]

I just climbed from 800 to 1125

[@TheMorphicMind]

Just in time

[@yejemoleg9821]

bro what time do you play i wanna play with you, i am 900 i want you to dismantle me and tell me how you did it

[@JustRightPinedo]

Im 1300s now in rapid so once you get near my ELO I’m gonna play daily and hope to run into you :)

[@vasi0011]

What does "RICE" stand for???

[@AshwinKumar-yn5ij]

In the previous rapid rating climb, Nelson played a cheater who took 5 to 8 seconds between obvious moves. Nelson lost the game and reported the cheater and he got banned. He then sent an email to Nelson explaining that the reason he took suspiciously consistent time between moves was he was using a rice cooker. And thus, the "rice cooker gambit" was invented. 😂

[@mareezy]

8:15 what if instead of moving his black rook there, he moved his d pawn up one. Traded pawns and ate his pawn with check and then brought light squared pawn to skewer White's queen and rook? 😊

[@learningisfun2108]

Good idea, but black doesn’t have to capture your pawn (if you take, that pawn can be easily captured later). Also, black doesn’t have to move his king when checked with the queen, and thus can avoid the skewer. He could block with queen, the you just get a queen trade.

[@mareezy]

@@learningisfun2108 ohhhhh! Good point, ty!

[@lukeliu6581]

it is 86 wins

[@jacobwilliams2771]

Play a Sicilian as black

[@CatSlinky]

Way more than 1 rice IMO

[@James--Parker]

Which games do you think had cheating?

[@CatSlinky]

@@James--Parker Not from this episode, but watch them all from the beginning. As someone who's made the climb to 1500 myself VERY slowly, it's easy to spot the outliers.

[@timm439]

Game 4 they failed the Jobava.. should’ve pawn stormed you

[@theliamofella]

What does rice mean

[@JF-iq1yx]

noun: a swamp grass which is widely cultivated as a source of food, especially in Asia. verb: North American force (cooked potatoes or other vegetables) through a sieve or ricer. "riced boiled potatoes"

[@AkihabaraWasteland]

Suspected or proven cheating.

Hey man, I’m thinking of quitting chess. I had a 2 month break and lost over 100 ELO today. It’s so annoying since i was already 100 below what I deserve to be, and what I was before I had to take a break due to exams. It looks like it’s over, I have no idea how I’m going to recover since I have no help, so yeah. I’m probably going to quit unless a miracle happens or smth

[@davidhammons2700]

At 7:52 wouldn't bishop to g2 have been checkmate?

[@vPegasus]

Me at 47:50: “But after rook takes G5 it will be lined up with the bishop and the pawn and it will be hard to defend both” Nelson: “ooo if they take this knight, guys…” Me: “he sees it now” Nelson: “it’s checkmate in two” Me: oh… 😂

[@sanfordbaslee2282]

Do you hate the caro kahn from blacks' perspective?

[@istariknight1]

I think of the caro as an "anti e4" it forces a more positional game on opponents who like to play aggressively. Nelson likes to play aggressively 😊
