How to Calculate in Chess? [Find Tactics in Your Games]

firstly queen d5 if queen takes queen then simply knight c7 checkmate if queen didn't wants exchange queen then queen f7 checkmate

The last puzzle is a forced chackmate in 5, starting with Knight to c7+, followed by Bishop takes f7, then coming with the queen in the middle and delievering the chackmate.

Thid is a talent which needs first of all good memory and the ability to create chessboard icons, in your mind clearly! You have it or not..
Since you have it , you can grow it: Otherwise its lost time😭

Qd5 can also be played sir

SOLUTION:1.Nc7+ Qxc7 2.Bxf7+ Kxf7 3.Qd5+ Ke8 4.Qe6#. This puzzle is very easy sir.

Fantastic chess video. ❤

In the first puzzle, …NxN is not a knight swap: Qxh7 is checkmate

Nc7+ , Bf7+, Qd5#

Qd5!!

Last puzzle: Knight check - Queen takes, Bishop check - King takes, Queen check on D5, Queen checkmate on E6.

I see: nice! : 1. calculate the attacks. 2. look for the candidates. 3. use your positional understanding (ie for example, don't activate their pieces, or give them room) to simplify the task. Nice!

When the queen moves, checkmate pursues
So forced to take, all is a mistake
Takings not cut, with Bishops' but
Knight's family fork, makes it a cork!

In third puzzle I stopped thinking after g4, as it traps the knight and wins a piece. Completely missed the mating idea.

Watched a ton of these videos but I promise you these won't improve your game a little bit. But there is one thing you can do for 1 week and see how much your game improves. And if you could do that for 1-2 months you would definitely bhi above 1500.

In example one, isn't Kd3 basically a rook-bishop fork mate?

Why is everyone saying that Qd5 is not a quick win? I see checkmate in 2. Can someone explain?

I got the answer but lost on time...

Have to say !! Amazing masterclass have improved a lot on tactical side !

Nc7 + Bf7 + Qd5 + Qe6

Bishop to f7 check and then 🧨 💥 🎆

last puzzle answer -Bb3 takes f7
k takes f7
qh5
g6
fxg6
hxg6
qxg6

2nd puzzle:- night to H7

Probably already in the comments but the checkmate is Nc7+!! Qxc7 Bxf7+!! Kxf7 Qd5+ Ke8 Qe7+ Be7 Qxe7# (Idk know but I found it in like 45 seconds)

Answer of the last question Is knight c7 queen takes knight bishop f7 king takes bishop and then queen d5 is a totally forcing check mate

Answer of the first position in
Rook f1 and then queen g2 mate

Nc7+ Qc7 Bxf7 Kxf7 Qd5+ Ke8 Qe6+ Be7 Qxe7#

I'm still losing a lot of CPU in the 1500-1900. So far I've beaten every CPU up to Miguel which is 1900 and my highest achievement so far on my own and it's really hard with raw intuition and wits without watching a lot of tips.


I've been keeping my records of my wins in my profile.

For the third scenario I see a number of lines:

One is 1. Nh7 Kxh7 2. Rxh5+ Kg8 3. Qh6… at this point I don’t see any way for black to escape mate on Qh7 supported by Rook or Bishop. Though admittedly Kxh7 is a blunder here…

Another is 1. Rxh5 g6xh5 2. Ne6+ - if black moves king back to either g8 or h8 or captures knight with bishop, mate is unavoidable after next queen check. If black captures with the pawn, then its a short chase along the 8th rank.

EDIT: I’m happy that I found the right line, but it took way too much calculating/overthinking positions, which takes up time and spends a lot of mental energy in game. Noted for future games! Thanks.

My dad was a great pool player he was a shark in the Bronx. Making over 300 balls in strait pool without missing once. Once he told me a good player doesn't have to make hard shots he makes every shot easy. I thought of him when you were talking about positional chess.

Kc7, Qc7
Bf7, kingf7
Qd5 checkmate

14 minutes is not a short video

Isn't if Kh5xK3 Qh4xh7 checkmate?
Just asking because he says that nothing really change in the position except the knights are of the board after Qh4xKg3

Forced mate

Qh5, g6, fxg6, hxg6, qxg6!!, if exg6, be7#
If rh7, qxe7, rxh7, bxh7#

I felt really proud seeing the solution for the puzzle immediately! Nc7, Queen has to take, Bxf7, king has to take, Qd5 check, Ke8, Qe6, Be7, Qxd7#!😊

Qd5

Queen will kill each other then give check with knight

There is a forcing line with Nc7+ QxN Bxf7+ Kxff7 Qd5+ Ke1 Qe3++... but your line is much more beautiful! Unfortunately it doesn´t lead to mate if NxB, but it would be a beautiful win nevertheless.

The move is Nc7+ (mate in 5 moves). Qd5 is winning for white, black lost the queen and the game, but white must continu long time to win

Qd5 Qd5 nc7

another tip from a learner : - initially play classical games and think at your best then slowly you'll be able to think faster

Qh5 ( going to check mate with f7)black Plays g6 then gx6 , black plays fx6 and Qgx6

Only 3 moves to win 🙂

Unless I missed something, in the first example if you take the white knight with your black, queen to g3 seems like a bad move. It can move to h7 instantly checkmating the black king.

Nc7 is also a line which leads to checkmate but what about Qd5??

queen to d5 with the black queen having to take the white queen followed by a knight to c7 checkmate. if the black queen takes the knight on b5 instead then the white queen can checkmate by moving to f7 and taking the pawn on that square!

The third candidate move in the first position Nxg3

You assumed white would take back on g3

Isn't Qxh8 checkmate a better option for them? 😂
