The concept of long term advantages is sometimes difficult to explain to new players. They always want to be "doing something" with their pieces, rather than build an advantage, and then lower the boom. Even simple concepts such as occupying the centre fall by the wayside, as there isn't an immediate payoff. I've occasionally used the following game as an example, but the normal response is "didn't he just keep losing material". Well of course, but in part, it was because my position was better to start with.
