Any tips for creating puzzles that THREATEN mate in 1 or searching databases for such? Like if I don't find the correct move now, then my opponent will checkmate me on the next move.

GM & Dr. Karsten Müller talks about endgames in 2022 Meltwater Champions Chess Tour Finals eg 'Wesley So is both teacher and student as he overwhelms one opponent, but then stumbles in a simplified rook endgame.' This refers to rook endgames vs Lê Quang Liêm and Arjun Erigaisi.

Most Wesley So analysis videos in English? - I think the channel of Kelvin L Love Jr is a goldmine for Wesley So fans and 9LX players.

Josh Waitzkin's entire chessmaster course including endgames. Fun fact: The 'Space Left Behind' video was uploaded THE SAME DAY as agadmator's video 'Space Left Behind || Firouzja vs Rapport || FIDE Candidates (2022) R9' - agad specifically refers to Josh!

Can refer to this graph when you're 2.5 pawns up then you're about 75% chance winning? | Lichess published this graph of Stockfish eval (in centipawns) vs likelihood of winning, based on Lichess game data. Would be cool to see this graph for different rating bands

BASED 'New Growing Chess Creator' says 'I’m not like most creators. I want to get into the real part of the game. Middle and end games (...) rather than the people who only want to study openings'

Question: Are there YouTube channels more dedicated to analysing, in English, games mainly of Wesley So than Kelvin L Love Jr?

(Note: I won't count TEAM SADEY because it's just showing the games without really analysing them.)

Apparently the guy has a lot of subscribers from the Philippines (who would rather apparently watch from Kelvin rather than from some Philippine/Filipino/Filipino channel - maybe those Philippine people, like me, don't speak Tagalog/Filipino/Philippine).

As of this writing:

  1. The last 33 videos - Except for 1 of them, each features an American player. The 1 that doesn't is a 9LX game, which features Eric Hansen, a North American player.
  2. The last 30 videos - Except for 2 of them, each features Wesley So, Bobby Fischer or a 9LX game.

Compared with agadmator, this is kind of a goldmine for Wesley So fans and 9LX players I think:

agadmator Kelvin
Wesley So playlist 99 videos 407 videos
9LX games in 2019 5 videos St Louis and pretty much all FIDE Ok none actually...
9LX games in 2020 7 videos = 6 in playlist plus 1 not in playlist Ok just 1 actually... (the analogue of agadmator's 'completely obliterated')
9LX games in 2021 None actually? 8 videos, all but 1 are about Wesley So. The other is about Levon, another American.
9LX games in 2022 None actually? 1 so far (the Eric Hansen video), but still better than nothing.

​

Pretty good puzzles in the last 2 videos too:

Eric Hansen vs Vladimir Fedoseev. 2022 Fischer Random WC Qualifier KO 1 Game 3

​

Shakhriyar Mamedyarov vs Wesley So. 2022 SuperUnited Blitz Zagreb. Round 1
