In this video I teach beginners how to start out the game with the black pieces against white’s most common openings moves. You’ll see the Queen’s Gambit, Ruy Lopez, and Guioco Piano.

Still the BEST chest channel Nelson 👏👏I learned all my Chess from this channel. Love Martin, keep him on more 😂😂😂

Thank you so much for all your tutorials! You're my fav chessyoutuber!
Seeing the same moves described from both perspectives was particularly helpful.

For this beginner, it was just about perfect!
I like video
As a Caro kann player, i have more win rate for black then white. (I'm just 1000 elo)
Very nice
y not capture c2 with queen?
Smacking guy
I watch him more than Gotham chess
"This is a great start to a game if you're black"Me, a white person: ☹️
This really helps! I've playing chess for only 4 years, And I didn't know any openings. Thanks a lot!
Thank you so much
Again great video. Exactly my learning level. Not too detailed not too soft. Perfect. Go on lik this, please!
Great move if your "black"
scandinavian sidelines?
this was so helpful, thanks nel!
Thanks!
'which is a great start to the game… if you're black' doesn't sound ideal out of context.
This was soooo helpful thank you!! A lot of times I’ll watch something that says “don’t do that; it’s a blunder” but they never explain whyYou’re a good teacher
Come on ya’ll Gotham chess is just approaching chess differently. He’s doing it like a YouTuber, where as the brother is approaching these videos like a teacher! 2 different audiences. Weird that you just used your comment to say something negative
this is sexy
what about if white's queen moves to a4 and checks black's king ? in the queen's gambit.
Why pawn to a6? 1:38
thanks, you're a really good chess teacher!
I'm glad I got some moves right but this helps alooooot
This video greatly helped me
Do you have some advice how to remember all of this? (Meaning all of the theory of chess?)
Problem is they never do the exact moves your doing
Amazing video!
Pawn to d6 always sounds like a rhianna lyric to me lol
Thanks for this lesson, very easy to follow but still informative.
Plz say the names of the openings , I really enjoy you other vids I’ve seen
I like this video because I'm not a complete beginner but, as a teacher myself, I wonder how it works for people who are actually complete beginners. He assumes that you are familiar with a lot of concepts that he might not have explained before: coordinates, pressure (he uses this one all the time), trading, queenside, chess lines, transpositions, pins, doubled pawns, controlling squares, connected rooks, good and bad squares, gambit. I haven't actually watched all the previous videos in this playlist, but judging from the titles it doesn't look likely that he has explained these concepts in those videos.
What is the black opening called? Is there a name for this opening?
Thanks for this lesson. I've been very interested lastly in learning how to play black, because I feel its a more difficult side to play vs playing white. So, I've been learning how to play with black very heavily lately as I really enjoy playing black over white.
Jérôme, its time to do your thing
Thanks this is more clear 😊
So looking at this I'm thinking you set them up for the fried liver attack.
I'm only a 620 Elo, but I can tell this video has already helped improve my game quite a bit, thanks!
I too appreciate the tempo you exercise while teaching chess. It is paced to allow slower players to follow along and actually learn moves. Many who teach try to dazzle us with their verbal footwork and instead of learning we are tasked with catching up. I enjoy your videos.
First time seeing your vids! Subbing for sure!
Why didn't you count the rooks as a piece at the 5:48 mark?
Incredibly helpful!
Thanks, great to see the scenarios run through with such clarity
Interesting lines for the QG! I don't encounter it so often and always wonder what the best solution is for me, at a beginner level. I'll try this next time and see how it goes. I nooticed you play the Scandi in other videos, I'm curious what was the reason that made you ignore it for this black opening video?
For the algorithm.
is the king's indian good for beginners?
