5 Common Mistakes BEGINNERS Make in Chess

I'm now a GM because of this video

I’m rated in 1300s, does that put me in beginner category?

I would watch Anna show me how to add soap to a dishwasher.

And then she created the COW setup 🤣🤣

Ty Anna been playing for 45 yrs never to old to learn ! Watching video was fantastic made me better player instantly with your professional insight, can’t wait to play my brother again and instill your logic! Keep up the good work and beating those cocky New Yorkers in the park! P. S. Luv watching your mother play too ! She is a silent assassin! Was she your mentor?

❤❤❤

thanks for some easy advice

You're a little qt

I have nightmares about blundering. Screaming nightmares.

My God. You’re beautiful and great at chess. Marry me?

I could never play you because you are very distracting

Hot teacher. Sometimes exchanging wins games.

Honestly, Anna could teach me how to brush my teeth, and I’d still watch it
😬🪥

Thank you Anna!

i've watched magnus play and in a lot of games he moves the side pawns before central ones

She's smoking

Thank you 😊. Good tips.

I have beaten A LOT of friends due to this video THANK YOU Miss Anna 🎉

Thank you for the tips. I play on an app, and I beat the level I was struggling with.

Good insights Anna, thanks!

Your hair looks great 😘 and the smile too.....and yes your extremely good player thank you for the video

I reckon her panda bear could beat me and do so before she had even finished eating breakfast 😢

Nice Video. Greetings from Berlin

Thanks for that, Anna. I'd like your opinion on a Double Fianchetto opening and whether ceding the 4 center squares can be an advantage, sometimes. Thanks, again.

It is important to remind beginners, when they're facing the possibility of an exchange, that all pairs have different values and that the bishop is higher than the knight when its mate is still around and less so when not, which is why you're better off ending up with two bishops than with two knights in an end fame.

I really appreciate this video, especially the part about considering where your piece is on the board as opposed to where your opponent's piece it at on the board when exchanging a piece as opposed to simply looking at the value of each piece irrespective of each piece's position . That makes so much sense but I had never thought of it that way before.👍👍👍

i lost 6 games after this.

I always move the pieces to the center.
Then I precede to lose anyway.

Watching your content has made a real impact on my game... saying I am thankful doesn't seem enough 🙏

I disagree with your trading pieces suggestions. I will trade my bishop for a knight every time.

You got it.......

Great knowledge, i didn't knew........

I used to have a love/hate relationship with chess. I’m not a big player but thank you for making it interesting Anna. You also easy on the eyes that helps too

I just really can't comprehend why Magnus wouldn't seek this out and lock it down. 💍 He's a big dummy

Hi, I learned a bad style of chess from the chess writers in newspapers and online. They always present a situation that can be broken open by a sacrifice or a series of forced moves, or leaving pieces exposed when you have the tempo. I KNOW all the stuff in this video BUT I don't use it! I'm going to be watching a lot of your videos.

I click cuz I saw attractive underage girl

Great stuff, I keep learning new and valuable lessons from you!

Very helpful ! Learned much, watching this video.

Excellent

Thanks Anna, very illustrative indeed.

YOU ANNA HAVE A FUNNY DISPOSITION WITH CONVERSTION WITH PEOPLE YOU CAN DO VIDEOS INTERVIEWING PEOPLE ON TODAYS SUBJECTS YOU HAVE INTERVIEWING SKILLS SO CONVERSATIONAL INTERVIEWS WITH PEOPLE FOR VIDEOS

GM that schools street masters

I would like to add one more mistake to the list:

Beginners always make the mistake of trading pieces WHEN THEY ARE DOWN ON PIECES! 😱

They wind up with nothing left and hand the game over to their opponent

This is useful, thank you Anna . . . and love the big Panda

Whoo! That was very informative. Many thanks.

Anna , I been playing chess for nearly 40 years but your video here really fixed my game , I was making rookie mistakes but not my game is better then ever , thanks!

Here is a "check list" or thought process I was taught early on. Before you move a piece ask:

1. Why is the piece where it is? Could just be in its starting position, but it could also be there to protect another piece.
2. Why do I want to move it? Have a reason. Don't just move to move.
3. How is the square I want to move to defended? (as you discussed)
4. What will my opponent do next? You don't want to move blindly into a fork or skewer or pin. Calculate, calculate, calculate.

You should use a similar thought process after each opponent's move:

1. Why was it where it was? Your opponent may have just blundered the piece it was guarding.
2. Why did they move to where they did? Figure out why.
3. Can you attack or defend?
4. What will my opponent do next?

Now that’s a huge mouth

You're so beautiful Anna 😍😍😍

I came here to learn about chess, but she's talking about a game called "chazz." I'm confused...
