I Try To Reach 2000 ELO in 30 Days - Day 22

[@garyarnold3141]

This has been a great series of videos Alessia. You make it so much fun but you're also explaining all your ideas and calculations very clearly and concisely. 😀

[@Alessia_Santeramo]

So happy to hear that!!

[@vov.7397]

I'm assuming that English isn't her native tongue, either, but somehow she explains things, sometimes complicated things, really concisely. Now I just need her to do a series on how to play the London. 🙃

[@joshualavender]

I love your absurd humor, Alessia! Laughed out loud half a dozen times watching this video.

[@Alessia_Santeramo]

I'm just trying the be myself in these videos and I'm so happy that people appreciate my authenticity :) (I'm weird but I like that ahah)

[@dreamofsleeping1980]

The not taking the rook blunder actually makes me feel a lot better, because I have moments like that in my game and I just thought there was something wrong with my brain. The fact that a high rated player such as yourself can miss something like that is acually really encouraging.

[@brp1344]

😂

[@kevinrose5569]

It's really awesome to hear your breakdowns. Some of the most helpful instruction I've been exposed to.

[@simongardner1835]

I love this Best Chess Series on the Internet!! And of course tackling the big theoretical issues in chess, like the fascinating "pony" versus "pawnie" debate. For clarification, Alessia, the knight is a "pony" (like in "own", "phone", "moan") and foot soldiers are "Pawnie" (like "dawn", "scorn", "lawn") ... but that might just work in British English. 🙂

[@MuhammadIqbal-dp2es]

Alessia teaches us in a very very simple language. Grazie signora 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@Alessia_Santeramo]

prego ;)

[@wildoliveaz]

You have such an underrated channel! Thanks for sharing all your knowledge, Alessia! 😊

[@BM-hj6lq]

You make me laugh. I was checking KZbin often today for your upload like I do for Daniel Naroditsky’s speed runs. You can be funny, calm and make very good moves with seconds on the clock. 17:22 - you missed you can just capture the rook😂. Also the first two opponents played like 1200’s.

[@vezquex]

Don't you mean 236?

[@virgoqalb]

17:23 😂😂😂😂

[@hubertborysowski]

236 to be precise.

[@theokrull1323]

Alessia I love your energy paired with your great explainations! Please more of Bing Bung Bang and roasting your opponents!

[@chalabread]

I learn a lot from your videos thank you

[@LiorAssouline]

Please explain how u manage to stay so relaxed and focused all the way? How do u practice that? Great series! I'm sure this will bring u many more subscribers 😁

[@tweeglitch]

If you lose and so have to play the grob but then lose again do you have to play the grob... again? Do you have to keep playing the grob until you win?

[@fintan9218]

I was wondering what she would do as well, as if she lost towards the very end that could be difficult. She hasnt lost yet though so even if she did I think she will manage

[@tweeglitch]

@@fintan9218 Or at least, we haven't seen her lose yet.

[@fintan9218]

​@@tweeglitch we are able to see the games she plays on her account, she couldn’t hide a loss i dont think. Also dont think she would 😉

Ponies and Pawnies! - a playful guide to chess

[@Taktvoller_Musiker]

At 9:19 her opponent could have taken on g 4 because after pawn takes the rook on h 6 is hanging.

[@happyroden8826]

17:22 that was hilarious hahahah

[@Alessia_Santeramo]

That was an epic fail ahaha

[@maheshmahadar4780]

1:08 What if white plays Nxe5 ?

[@DestinyIsDecided]

7:17 you have a fork on queen and rook with knight C2

[@danielyuan9862]

You have an interesting playstyle. You still take risks on the chessboard when you're already up a clean piece. And you're thinking of attacking instead of trading to a winning endgame.

[@danielyuan9862]

Like at 9:11, after calculating Qxd3 I'd play it in an instant. But for some reason, you didn't like trading the queens in that position.

[@danielyuan9862]

35:34 you're 236 points away from 2000, not 234!

[@GreenRayJC]

I feel morally you lost that last game and now must play the Grob

[@nicedylan]

You’re so funny 😂 (and super strong)

[@danwilliams4463]

Wonderful and very instructional!

[@patrickdevlin8553]

Great stuff as always! Thanks!

[@marcobaluardo196]

Great serie tbh

[@RTX_Digit]

Alessia's middlegame attacking mind is so powerful but her endgame is almost the opposite

[@Alessia_Santeramo]

I will improve that!

[@neon1899]

Alessia just pronounced subtle as sub-tal. As someone whose first language is not English either, I love her mispronounciations.

[@ri0417]

you are a great teacher !!

[@sammorad9864]

236 my dear not 234

[@rayramos2644]

Sorry, but I'm gonna say yee-haw for every pony I take going forward. Thanks, Alessia!

[@TheRuns2]

Even more value than her free cheese macaroni.

[@ghilonetienne6851]

Bruh top chess

[@Alessia_Santeramo]

LEt's goooooo ahahah

[@serbia2211]

At 17:40, you played the king to d2 incorrectly, instead of capturing his rook with the bishop and giving him a check, and then capturing his knight, and it's game over.

[@Taktvoller_Musiker]

Didn't she miss Bishop takes h 3 and after Pawn takes night f 3 and mate is unstoppable? At like 6:28

[@wagyooh_beef]

She would need to prep it with h5 to prevent queen check

[@davidmunar8453]

17:45 just take the rook with your bishop and the game is over xd

[@KancerKowboy]

The best speed run on the internet right here 🙂

[@pannenkoeksus]

9:19 bro didnt take the free cheese macaroni

I don't understand how it's a challenge to reach 2000 if your rating is nearly 2300

[@geauxgaia]

fabulous shirt!! (lol reallytoinfinitybadmoooove!)

[@chris_atomy8]

Your opponents always make mistakes and blunders early in the game. We don't learn much because they are very easy for you to beat. Can you filter out the games with lousy blunders?

[@perseoeridano4182]

Bro don't get so down she is already an elite chess player she have also struggled and worked hard in her youth to reach this height you can also reach higher heights if you keep working on your tactics and strategy Meanwhile slow improvement is by everymeans better than no improvement at all so keep learning the game
