#speedrun #grandmaster #chess
These speedruns are the best chess vids on RUclips.
You’re right and it’s not even close. There’s no better time spent to information learned ratio on RUclips.
Take out the chess part, best vids on youtube
they are
I prefer the endgame series, but aside from that, it's golden
By far. Danya is the best chess teacher in the world.
I love how he casually pulls up a game from 6 years ago "I had this position against Kassa Korley back in 2016."
yeah like he’ll be remembering every move he ever played and I can’t even remember what I played in my rated games last week🤣
@@MilkCarton35 Shit, ill forget what move I played 10 moves ago in the same game lmao
Typical amongst the IM to GM level, especially if you’re super GM. I’ve seen Hikaru vods where he remembers a position he had against a specific opponent, (14) years ago, what tournament it was, where it was, and the month it happened. These guys are nutty
when you start playing classical time chess, youll understand what they mean. Its impressive how can I remember almost all of my classical games
@@andrerodrigues2877 i think a lot of it is how much time you spend thinking about it. You spend a few hours while playing the game and can spend a few more hours afterwards. It makes it more significant in your mind than a shorter format.
The good old "blitz out every move until you lose material and then start using time"
I can totally relate
Haha! The opponent on my last game played exactly like that. I won, but it wasn't easy to convert my advantage
3:30 "I notice every such relationship between two pieces". What a simple yet profound statement for chess improvement.
really good comment
Damn I wanted to see daniel's best combination ever that got denied
Danya never shares the story he says he'll return to about his greatest combination that he didn't get to play over the board! I'm dying to know.
I watch these videos and try to hear Daniel narrating my game as I play, and then I blunder my queen. It’s amazing how easily and calmly he does this.
When I first started watching chess channels on RUclips I didn't play chess myself (before that I only played chess when I was a little kid) and because I watched those videos I thought that chess was a lot easier than it actually is. Basically I thought that I would be 1500-1600 elo immediately when I start playing chess. When I started playing chess on my own, I was rated 600 at first haha. It took me a year and thousands of chess games in order to reach that 1500-1600 level that I thought I would reach immediately.
This was a classic Caro positon. Funny the silician got transpositioned into it
That's what I was thinking when he kept saying it was a French defense on steroids I was thinking it's more like an advance Caro Kann
Well in caro you have to spend a tempo to move c6 pawn but in french you dont
Found your channel yesterday, I really like that you explain so much and in such detail. Subscribed immediately
Absolutely the best content on chess youtube! Truly amazing insights. Thank you so much Daniel!!
Love Daniel's enthusiam and passion in this one! Great to see.
Always look at this as sson as I spot a new vid. Love the ideas, positional play backed by tactical threats and wining the exchange.
Terrific !! Brilliant Sicilian lesson !! Awesome token chunks from other games.. I like this concept of chunks in chess. Chunks that fire together wire together. Thanks !
Daniel, I went from 1200 to 1670 within 1 month of watching your content, truly the best teacher I ever had :-))
Amazing content! Thank you Danya!
Wonderful explanations in the opening!🙏
Amazing chess content, as always. Thank you!
Love your content Danya. Thanks for the insights.
We love you Danya! Thanks for everything!
Hello Mr naroditsky, I would like to say I really like your explanations in the sicilian défense as it is my main tool against e4, please keep it up!
best speed run ever, please keep posting mate :)
Great explanations, as always Mr. Danya
There is something oddly satisfying about watching your remarkable videos with a cup of tea. Thank you, sir:)
Thanks for every video you post, danya!
useful as always. Thanks Danya
You're awesome Daniel, thank you!
I love how Fanta's opponents play really fast in the openings and only start to think when the position is losing
Fanta Naroditsky!!
@@queenbrynja legendary nickname lmao :d
Great job Daniel, Thanks :)
This was needed!!!!🫡❤️
@10:10.. "Let me think about this for a second*... Less than a second later - I think I know what I wanna do. Legend.
I exclusively play the Caro and this has been such a valuable middle game instructional for me. Ironically it started as a Sicilian but such a common position in Caro as well.
Danya! Thank you for everything! If I may offer a humble suggestion, around 4:30 you made an intuitive decision and only calculated to castles, based on your knowledge of the position. I think if you could let us know what things you foresee based on your knowledge of similar positions we could all learn a lot. Like what is the down side of the other choice?
I understand your question, but he did say it was based on a lack of development and a rook coming to c1 in the future. I don't think there is much specific to foresee in this case, white will just have clear initiative and the risk is that you, say, have to give back a pawn to not get pushed away. I personally would have gome for it (2250 lichess rapid), as Daniel said: he also decided this plan just to keep it simple and be certain he's safe. At almost any level the pawn is certainly worth more than the initiative
This opening is very flexible. You can transition into many tactics/openings with this. Good looks brvh
Oh man you really make me love chess more and more! ❣️❣️❣️
I finish games against Stockfish all the time. It's a good way to get closure when your opponent resigns after dropping a piece.
Now this is epic
Good calming, interesting content
Watching a GM get this excited is fun!
That smothered mate was 🔥 on the board!!
Many thanks for the great content! Might be helpful in post game recap to show the engine bar and give some explanation when there's a swing in the bar.
Best chess Speedrun on RUclips man, very helpful. Can I suggest you make a rapid Speedrun just trying to play the objective best move on every move?
Daniel can you please make some Danya merch? I think most of us would love to rep it! You are a better at teaching than any of my professors at uni!
Danya, you’re the best. Cheers!
@Daniel Naroditsky I often use the "continue from here" feature on lichess to drill openings and endings (For anyone who wants a tough challenge, set up a random Q + K vs R + K position and try to win with the queen or draw with the rook, it is incredibly difficult against stockfish max level) I also sometimes do correspondance games against myself on a different account to then analyze my games and work on specific openings simultaneously! You're right that it is an incredibly powerful ressource, especially when paired with the study function
That variation in the Alapin you showed is super similar to a variation of the Nimzowitsch Defense I get into sometimes. It's the same position except the c-pawns are still on the board.
Daniel "Alright I'm gonna call it, I'm feeling pretty exhausted guys" Naroditsky
Thank you 😍😎
Thank you.
Great, i sub
Sometimes I’m mind blown by danya games. Like this game he just dissect each move and it’s just beautiful
Danya with the red T looks dapper af!!!
*literally any move*
"this is a very typical move in these types of positions"
ahhHHHH
I would love to see a video on Russian school of chess principles, examples and ideas!
Anything from Spassky or Karpov would be the least likely to lose the interest of today's viewers. General summary is grindy (constricting), principled positional chess.
I would recommend reading "Chess Strategy for Club Players"
At 20:50 I have fallen into this trap before, that pawn sac against the Alapin is so worth it, black has similar type of compensation that black can get in positions that arise after
1.e4 d5
2.exd5 Nf6
3.c4 c6
4.dxc6 Nxc6
5.d3 e5
6. Nf3 e4!
7.dxe4 Qxd1+
I'm fairly certain Kmoch once said pains are the soul of chess
I dont mind waiting at the end. 15 minutes is great for me. It allows me to guess your next move before you play and hear your thought processes, etc.
When my opponent resign, always try to finish it against the computer playing fast to train time scrambles and winning positions ! Really helps
I like to do it after a puzzle to see if I can convert the position
What is your rating?
Sir your videos have done a phenomenal job in influencing my thinking, i am at 1575 rapid now and have come a long way from 700 . (In 8 months)
Thanks a lot sir.
😇
fantastic progress my friend!!
@@jycegaming8530 thanks man.
thanks
Went up 100 points since watching this channel. Awesome instruction. Any chance on getting a series on Black?
lets go !
Danya, you HAVE to take a look at Ding Liren v.s. Magnus Carlsen yesterday in Chessable Masters Semifinals. Ding won a phenomenal game on the white side of a Slav. It was amazing to watch and extremely instructive.
my man
oh my lands
Is this the same speed run as his other playlist for senseidanya? Or are these different? It looks like there’s 3 speed run playlists? One for ohmylands and two for sensei unless they r the same. What do you recommend watching first?
Boy is genious
I feel like Danya is getting better and better at instructing average level players, or maybe he's just made me better than an average level player and I can understand him better now lol
YES!!!!!
great game & explanation, too bad nobody asked the question in your session; on 10:01 white played knight to F1..normally if I would have such situation with black pieces my opponent would have played rook C1-B1 instead. With the intention going to B5, same principle as what you did with your rook on B3. Would you have played then like for example rook B1..rook b6, Queen E2, rook f8-B8 etc? Keep up your great vids & work. Cheers!
Yeah I was thinking Knight h6 to f5 rather than blocking in the bishop from protecting the pawn.
Anyone else like that line "and the verb moveorder means to suck you into a line" lol
When are you gonna offer memberships on your channel?
Thank you for the Sicilian defense videos
But can you please make more Najdorf Videos 🙏
I love how "A french on steroids" that Danya talked about is just a regular caro kann
Every speed run video is a complete lesson.. Just watch a game according to your liking and try to learn from after game analysis.. That's it.. You'll definitely improve.. Thanks Danya..♥️♥️♥️
0:50 can someone please tell me why Nf6 is better than d5 against the Alapin? I was taught d5. Please and thank you
i do try to win games against the computer on lichess with the puzzles there. yeah, some of the puzzles might be mating puzzles, but most are just forcing the opponent to get the better exchange or get a totally winning position even with equal material. even so, i have to prove i can win those positions and not just claim advantage as if that means that i already won when i can still blunder something
I'm able to guess your moves while watching the videos but not able to implement the same ideas while playing, what to do? 😭
Put a Russian School Cricket in your ear, it'll tell you everything
Plz do some speed run video while playing the najdorf. I struggle a lot playing that
I'm still learning but is there a reason you refer to it as a "french on steroids" rather than a caro?
Stockfish has repeatedly recommended the move 4. d4 in that position as black (following 4. e5). It’s my opinion that after you play this, white’s position is embarrasing. The e5 pawn is overextendend and weak, white’s d pawn is backwards, and blacks advanced d pawn is actually very strong. Usually, you end up winning one of the center pawns, or getting enormous compensation while white struggles to hold them
Sir how to play kan variation as white thank you
FINALLY, 1. E4 C5
Danya I’m near this rating (1895) is there a chance I can play you? Or is this all just randomly queued games
6:19 what if white plays dxc5? If u take the pawn with ur bishop, after bishop trade white wins a piece by g5?? If u don't take the pawn on c5 using ur bishop, then he wins a pawn? Am I missing something??
W VIDEO
good to see you, donquavious ficklebottom. you are my favorite chess grandmaster
game reminds me strongly of the one Anand beat Carlsen in one of the World championship matches (except colors reversed)
It was pretty funny when the web cam froze
move 14 pawn b 4 i'd open a file there to get that position
17:19 my phone after Stockfish reach depth 12
I finally understood why Danya doesn't play the French. He just doesn't love double pawns on the C file & he doesn't love the light sq bishop blocked in. This is like the 3rd game to which it gets transposed to a French position but with the light sq bishop outside the pawn chain. Anyway, it's pretty darn cool to watch him play this game and winning without even involving his queen.
Can someone explain to me why Danya might not want to mess up the queenside pawn structure in the opening, and thus played Qc7? What about this position would prefer Qc7 over another developing move?
Well no need to mess your pawn structure unless necessary. But move Qc7 is a common moves in many variation of Sicilian, as it's an all-purpose move, and the center is closed enough that you can afford the lack of development a little bit.
As a french player, letting the opponent ruin the pawn structure or continuing developing, this choice comes down to preference. However, QC7 is a multifaceted move, clears the queen from the backrank so in the event that all pieces were developed and danya castled, he wouldn't have to worry about connecting rooks. Another reason why I think Qc7 was played was because of the possibility of white playing Qb3 which could lead to some problems (black's b7 pawn is fairly weak in french structures)
EDIT: also the obvious pressure on the E5 pawn
@@archiebellega956 yup, as Danya said “we can afford such niceties.” Cuz things are closed and you know white wants to play d4, so black isn’t even behind in development. And the tempo on the pawn discourages white from developing in response. Either they take like they did in the game or play d4, either way development remains pretty equal
He actually explains it in detail at 37:06
gg
Wow just realised the ns are flipped in the intro xd
#saveTF2
I set up positions and play from position all the time but I'm a lichess player so I thought that was normal.
👏👏👏👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽🙏🙏🙏
Great content. I'll add my vote to the people who want to see you playing a Delayed Alapin with white
in russia do they tell the schoolboys to play like daniel naroditsky
I wish I was better at playing like a Russian schoolboy
