Chess Visualizing: How To Remember Squares

I get asked frequently to make a video about visualization in chess and identifying the squares, so I made a video for chess strategy for beginners and intermediate players on how to visualize during a game.

0:00 Intro
0:47 SQUARES

The hardest part in about this video was trying to say the Alphabet backwards

Weird how you think the coordinates are "wonky" for white. It's the exact opposite for me.

13:48 "I want you to pause the video..."

* pauses video * Okay, what do I do now. Levy? Levy?

Visualisation in brief: Hikaru looking in the ceiling to think. Lol

6:00 : So I tried to draw arrows, but my opponent stopped me saying it was bad for the chessboard

Stoooop it at 14:30 I said “central squares” not some random f1/d1/c1 😂

[davidryal]

whoa that was creepy, i jumped ahead and he said "if you've jumped ahead here, welcome"

Levi it's almost a year now, when do I unpause the video.

I honestly can’t believe it, I was outside doing yard work when I had the thought “Damn, I need to get good at knowing the squares when I play” then I come inside and bam, a notification for this video. Insane.

"What square does white control the most? It's a tough one."
"D1 or C1?"
"D5" - Levy

Wait, you see black’s POV as the ‘normal’ way reading letters alphabetically right to left and counting down from top to bottom?! This has blown my mind.

I’m a musician, it’s very hard for me to remember that there is a h. Am I the only one?😂

Man is a walking chess content machine like he literally uploads like 4 times a day

I'm a begginer and I've been playing chess for 2-3months. And I can proudly say that I can remember every move and the coordinates of each pieces from the Paul Morphy Opera Game, although it's only a 17 move game there still is room for improvement.
