@@self-righteousideologue9398 Yeah, I could've understood still playing down 1 piece at 1400, but down 2 pieces and a couple pawns was definitely resignable lol
We've al been there, I certainly have been in both situations a bit too often. You can't stop playing until you break your losing streak, really brings out the worst chess, just attacking without any regard of what the opponent is doing.
personally I don't know if he is considered one, he's more of a streamer who uploads his streams. Each video fits in perfectly though, it's a whole lesson that works entirely on it's own. On a side note is anyone sick of people saying the word "content" for everything? You actually used the word correctly, content creator is acceptable. But I swear people are complimenting people's joke by saying "haha that's such good content" or saying about a story: "wow man, that story was some crazy good content". This is a joke but I swear one time Levy talked like that about one of his jokes immediately after it happened and this happens in all gaming.
You are the most instructive Chess streamer on youtube. Agadmator is really serious. Levy is fun. Hikaru is too fast and hard to understand what he is doing. must say they all are good channels. But I needed this thinking process which I find you are giving is really important. also you recap on the games afterwards including possible other lines. Please keep doing this.
Is this just me or not, when I commentate my moves / ideas with Danya's voice in my head, I tend to play better somehow? xD Great content, thank you so much.
May be weird to respond to something from 8 months ago, but I think it is just that using that as a tool just gets you to slow down and think through the position instead of rushing to make moves. It can indeed be very helpful though
Daniel is by far my favorite chess content creator. He's incredibly instructive and explains things clearly in his analysis, is respectful when speaking about his opponents regardless of their rating, and his love and respect for the game are always apparent and infectious. No memes, drama, showing off, or clickbait. Just nice, wholesome, educational chess. Thank you, Daniel. You are a legend.
@@JuliuSeizure Was not throwing shade at any chess content creators, just pointing out the reason I like Danya the most. I enjoy Levy's content as well, but for different reasons. I did not have any specific channels in mind when writing my comment. Though, if you read the list of things I mentioned and your first thought was that I must be talking about Levy, maybe there is a reason for that... As far as memes go, there's nothing wrong with them. I just appreciate that Danya's speedrun content is all focused on being productive and instructive. When I'm watching a video to try to improve, I'd rather not have to cut through the chaff of memes and jokes to get to the educational bits, that's all. It's my personal preference.
@@bmoneybby they start you at ~800 elo if you say you have some experience with chess, otherwise lower. To get 1400 you have to have played to it or bought it

In the "old times", when i was a kid, It was the Soviet School...First the Endgames, checkmating patterns and only then everything else...And i still thing it's the best way, at least for me.
@@yahyatavakoli1481 i stopped Chess for 12 years, and before that i wasn't anything special, Just was Born in a family with the passion for the game. Now i'm around 1600. If i have the free day, and it's a good day, i won some games against 1700-1800 (but rarely!🤣)👍
If u think so.. Then u are welcome to get crushed because most of them make a lot of positional errors or miss tactics but none of them do so in just one single move like this so called 1400
Great video Daniel, Keep up the amazing work and i'm really happy you don't put up with d/heads :) remember you have a huge following who will support you through the hard times.
Yeah if he is new and rose the rankings fairly quickly, it’s totally possible at that level to have not run into the Sicilian enough to bother learning it.
@@michael8815 Also try the Ponziani-steinitz gambit variation (if I'm not wrong), where you play Nxe4 then qh4 when they try to fried liver you. It's not as good as traxler positionally ofc, but you get mate in like 1 more moves if they don't realize it (mainly because they tend to only study the traxler variation). If they play Nxf7, Qh4, if Nxe4, then d5 then at least you win your knight back (or knight+pawn for bishop), but mostly they get mated by Qxf2# if they're newbie enough (I got this position like 10 times, and get 5 mates, so that's quite often). If they play the Nxe4, then you're really down a pawn, but then again inviting fried liver means you're going to down a pawn regardless, plus you get your bishop pair. If they play Bxf7 though, then you have to play chess.
I had been struggling to stay above 1200 for 3 months. I have been watching these speed runs and have now just hit 1400 in only about a month. You are a great teacher and are so good at putting yourself in other’s shoes (brains)
Ben Finegold once said in a lecture that people usually assume their bishop is defended on c1/c8... And when the other guy takes it they're like "oh..." I didn't think it would actually happen, but apparently here we are
Danya’s analogy near the end reminds me of Dr. Frankfurter’s line in Rocky Horror Picture Show at the end of singing Sweet Transvestite “…So, I’ll remove the cause (evil chuckle) but not the symptom!” (Queue dramatic music) It’s good to know that even GMs appreciate classic movies. I try to watch Rocky Horror every Halloween season, just can’t miss Tim Curry’s stellar performance.
day 12 of saying really brilliant content danya. Thank you so much for helping with the chess anxiety, and making the chess community even better. You're an artist my guy
@12:46 why not consider bishop d2? When I look at bishop g5, I'm afraid of h6 kicking the bishop out, forcing it to retreat and also making a cubby for the black king? Doesn't bishop d2 accomplish just as much as bg5?
Lessons learned 1)queen is a bad defender of piece 2)Dont put pieces in place where opponent can develop with tempo 3)Nimzovich opening 4)Think about where pieces belong in future
After e4 Nc6, Nf3 d5, exd5 Qxd5, Nc3 Qh5; I think white has Nb5 which is annoying. Bill Gates missed that move too against Magnus, electing instead to get mated in nine moves or so.
7:48 Correct me if I'm wrong, but the h pawn is pinned to the rook so it doesn't really threat the knight. After something like f4, isn't white holding on?
If you wonder why the first guy plays like that, here in Indonesia chess is very popular among normal people. Almost everyone can play, but most of them don't know any theory. So chess is like non-serious fun game here.
I always think it's funny when GMs are like 'I don't know how a 1400 could play like this'. Chess is slowly becoming an actual esport, people aren't playing to climb. They are drunk, tired, bored, doing something else. Maybe not 2k+, but even GMs play memes for fun now. A much better environment to actually enjoy the game.
first guy was probably either tilted at 4am or drunk and tilted
Yep it's only 3am and I'm already hanging stuff

I think the first guy just learned the fried liver and thought it works in the Sicilian
Apparently according to another comment that first guy is+the India billionaire who plaued anand on his new account
traxler is great against fried liver, at my level. it's not perfect but it's really fun so i always 'invite' the fried liver when i can

Extremely good chess training right here folks!!!! 👍🏼
this is helping me so much to learn
First guy was playing like it was bullet chess, he lost all his pieces with 9 minutes on the clock
Lessons learned
1)queen is a bad defender of piece
2)Dont put pieces in place where opponent can develop with tempo
3)Nimzovich opening
4)Think about where pieces belong in future
I’d really love to see some analysis series, if you’re interested
After e4 Nc6, Nf3 d5, exd5 Qxd5, Nc3 Qh5; I think white has Nb5 which is annoying.
Bill Gates missed that move too against Magnus, electing instead to get mated in nine moves or so.
Love to see how Danya plays even a comfortable position with such discipline. Sure, there was mate in 1 on the board, but why allow the pawn to pass?
Thank you Sensei Danya 🙇🏿♂️
i've had upwards of 10 people make the exact same blunder the first guy made, tunnel vision is a powerful drug
the 1400 playing worse than my 1000 opponents lol
500*
I mean, he playing against the 2500 looks easy..
7:48 Correct me if I'm wrong, but the h pawn is pinned to the rook so it doesn't really threat the knight. After something like f4, isn't white holding on?
You are threatening bishop takes which is supported by the pawn at the end even if he defends with his bishop
If you wonder why the first guy plays like that, here in Indonesia chess is very popular among normal people. Almost everyone can play, but most of them don't know any theory. So chess is like non-serious fun game here.
True master class!!
Holy fucking lands bro
nothing better than watch an over-aggressive person trying to mate from move 4 get completely demolished by move 6 haha xD.
