Tutorial #50 Solving a hard puzzle from the beginning to the end

A fun, step-by-step video on how to solve a sudoku puzzle from the beginning to the end.

Many procedures, tricks and techniques are used, plus a couple of rules.

VERY IMPORATNT.... Some subscribers have told me they are not getting notification of when I upload a new video. YouTube has been working on this issue. I am pleased to inform all my subscribers that if you click on the bell at the right side of the red subscription button, you should receive a notification from YouTube that I will be uploading something new on a particular day and time.
I will only be putting up notifications once or twice a month.
One advantage of doing this on my channel is that when I premier a new video you have the opportunity to chat with me as well if you wish.

Thanks to all of you for your comments underneath the videos.

Tim Dolan pointed out a place 7.50 where I jumped ahead. You were right Tim. I wondered how long it would be before sometone noticed. Thanks for your comment Tim

Thought of the day
One seed can start a garden
One smile can lift a spirit
One candle can light a room
One conversation can start a friendship

I love your technique! I just started doing sudoku yesterday and after watching your tutorials I'm breezing through puzzles like this.

What fun! It was so great to watch you solve from beginning to end. Many online Sudoku teachers don't fully explain their thinking, but you are so clear and easy to follow it's a pleasure. Thanks for a great lesson!

[downundervlogs]

So glad I found your channel Thanks for teaching us these methods and you explain everything very clearly in laymans terms.

Thanks to you, sir, I don’t think of sudoku as a boring and tedious puzzle anymore! Thanks for all the useful tips and solving techniques, your methods work like a charm!

[conrydsalvesen]

That was great. Fun to see you go through and use all the tips and techniques you teach

[MisuracaAntonio]

Watching you solve it makes it look so easy, then I tried it myself and I couldn't figure it out. So I put your video and the puzzle side by side, solved it together, and boy! I am amazed at your skill

[tamra]

Thanks Robin, your techniques have helped me improve my sudoku skills!

[frenchie]

You are awesome! Been following all your videos and because of you I've become quite the expert from the easy to medium puzzles. I still can't do the diabolical puzzles but I'm determined. God bless. Thanks!

This is tremendous. Well done Robin! More live solve videos will be fantastic. It feels good when you spot the naked singles. I find it often opens the puzzle up

Thank you, Robyn, I started sudoku two weeks ago and on my first youtube search for a mentor, I choose you as my tutor/professor and find all your vids amazing. I did my first 100 so call EASY and did pretty well, BUT now for first 3/100 have been a failure after this tutorial I am hoping that my next 96 puzzles will be easy 🙂🙂as you say "let's see" thank you so much.

[cristianoronaldoofficial]

[prabhakararaoirukuvajjala]

Great . Nicely explained all the intricacies in solving this Hard Puzzle. Firstly not putting 5s in third row of first block and remember first & then solving later is amazing.

[smitaramkrishnarane]

I started to learn sudoku solving during lockdown begining with tutorial one.
Your teaching is amazing and generating so much interest.
Although a first timer I am able to solve easy ones.I keep on watching vedios again and again if I am stuck anywhere.
Thanks so mych

[jeffgrizzel]

Thank you very much for your videos. You have greatly improved my understanding of sudoku. I appreciate not only the knowledge you give us but the gentle manner in which you give it. Thank you.

7:50 could someone explain to me how he decided that the small fours could only go where he put them? Why couldn't one go in the top middle square of the middle block, or the bottom left square of the top block?

[cbesthelper]
