That bit about "fuck a duck" and the corrupted 7-year-old ragamuffin was hilarious. Also ragamuffins putting their heads in cauldrons. That howl of LAMENTATION when you allowed that family fork was almost as livid as your one against Gotham Chess. I laugh/winced. Never change Simon!! Cheers.
This is now approaching being the highlight of my week - which is obviously a compliment but makes me wonder how bad the rest of my life is! Brilliant show!! :)
Always knew GM Williams, for like 10+ years, as the guy who plays the Dutch. So happy this content exists, but mad i've been missing out for so long, i've got some catching up to do. The narration of the thought process is very educational, and the uncertainty of positions is very relatable. I have become a fan for life, this is the most intriguing chess content i've come across.
While I have several courses, I am late to the party on these weekly tournament videos-but they have rapidly become absolutely required viewing. Tremendous fun of course, but watching these carefully-game and analysis-has made a significant difference in my tactical vision. And beyond that, has resulted in improved results and an even greater joy in playing the game. THANK YOU.
I swear one of my favorite things to watch is Simon play TT! Laugh crying at these games, that sicilian game with an early Bd3 from White, “that game was his bottle of whiskey vs my bottle of vodka” lmao
This was entertaining 😂 I suspected you had a hangover after hearing your voice and it turns out I guessed right. This TT was more like blunders than brilliances, but thats what makes it even more fun. Thank you, Simon!
You will never know how well Gingergm could do in the TT if he would simply make a few decisive changes in his everyday life. At least we had some fun and some bad games. But hey, it's a free world...
Oh, keep your eyes on the road, your hands upon the wheel Keep your eyes on the road, your hands upon the wheel Yeah, we're going to the Roadhouse Gonna have a real A good time
Love GGM... Never change... 0:17 - I feel we're going to crush some foe. Or we might just lose every game and look like an idiot... (27 seconds later...) 0:44 - What the hell is this?! I have no idea what is happening now.
44:30 .. life crisis innit? :D don't feel bad! I watch all your uploads, and you are hack of a good hearted man... kind of you can only be once you get a bit older!!
39:55 seems like there was Qc6 in the position with threats on f3 if Bishop moves, but Simon resigned to having blundered a bit too early. Never trust your opponent, right?
Some of Simon's chess is similar to pouring a kettle of boiling water over your arm. Wasn't it great when he get 8.5 a couple of weeks ago. Who would have though chess could be so entertaining.
Comments on that 2nd game : I'm waaaaaay worst of a player than Simon, but isn't it a bad habit of his to put his pawns on the same colour as his bishop when he has bishop vs knight ? I've been noticing that these past few weeks and then he ends up in a drawn position or a position where the knight gets better and better.
Not everything that goes up MUST come down, Simon; if something reaches escape velocity it is not coming down. You can do much better than you normally do, Simon, you just have to believe more in yourself and not see yourself as a ring-in who is happy with an 8/11...
Fun fact: in 2004, Magnus competed in the 2004 Reykjavik Open, when he was 14. He played none other than Gary Kasparov, two games. He drew Gary in the first game and dropped his queen in the second game 🤔😄
PLEASE NEVER STOP UPLOADING THE TT SHOW
Most entertaining chess streamer there is!
Never ever
"If i get a good position, i expect my opponent to roll over and die."
😅😅😅 truer words never spoken
You are so fun to watch. Win or lose, we all support you Simon!

After Titled Tuesday comes Ginger Wednesday!!
Absolute brilliance Simon !!
This is now approaching being the highlight of my week - which is obviously a compliment but makes me wonder how bad the rest of my life is! Brilliant show!! :)
Your TT uploads are the highlight of my week. And yes, I probably should get out more.
Each week I come with my popcorn ready for this Ginger Tuesday, and I never give up the hope! Never!
The best show to watch with popcorn in the known universe 😂
Epic rollercoaster stuff !! The gods smile on the g5'ers. 😂
Losses to 2500 humans, criticizes a 4000 engine. That's the ginger we all love.
The engine chooses boooring lines mate. Let’s have a bit of fun. Make some boo boos, and checkmate the geezer
@@northernwolf3275 but those engine tactics were veeeery interesting.
Brilliant to watch Simon

I watched him for 9 years straight on my other account...YOU HAVE TO GO BACK AND WATCH HIS STUFF!!!
Goes to take care of his beloved cat instead of finishing the tournament. Man's got his priorities straight. Cheers mate!
And still the greatest chess entertainer out there.
I like the chess betting talk.

Your Awesome Simon🙏👍👍🇦🇺
Always a pleasure watching you play.
This weeks show truly was like a piece of gold gleaming next to a piece of brown stuff. Pure content.
Don’t care if win or lose still loads fun to watch
I swear one of my favorite things to watch is Simon play TT! Laugh crying at these games, that sicilian game with an early Bd3 from White, “that game was his bottle of whiskey vs my bottle of vodka” lmao
Love this every week Simon. You're super funny! Would be amazing to get you playing in arena kings or another tournament 👍
Here for the ride
"trip" would be perhaps a proper term in the Ginger GM world. 🏯🫠
Usual roller coaster ride with the bearded maniac!
Fire! thank you Simon.
Love you Simon
This was entertaining 😂 I suspected you had a hangover after hearing your voice and it turns out I guessed right. This TT was more like blunders than brilliances, but thats what makes it even more fun. Thank you, Simon!
1000% you should have signed the chess board “To Giles, fuck a duck, Simon”
Yesss go Simon!
Like this generation i dont watch television anymore. But now this is my go to show ;)
Hungover blunders.. still best TT content
GOLDEN
Simon I love your black lion videos
1:05:30 "He's got to play so strangely that his parents don't even recognise him" 😂
"I'm gonna get the boys over"
*moves Queen*
Simon’s back
"Playing casper the ghost...let's put him back in his grave" 😂
Charlie is more important than chess. From a proud compatriot of a queen of 19.
Such a funny mom story!
I don't think once a week is enough, I need more GingerGM in my life.
ton niveau d échecs n'est pas à la hauteur de ton humour ! mdr ! mais j'adore tes vidéos Simon !
GILES! 😂23:02
Why that's a very dapper Simon in the thumbnail, I say!
😂 yep looks cool... it's a still from the movie 'American Psycho'
I believe you've confused him with Marcus Halberstram.
Thank you bro, because of you I made a big bet against Nakamura, I owe you a course :P
Chess is a sisyphean ordeal. Sensational entertainment.
Never resign!
your blitz rating is back to looking quite healthy these days

Oh, keep your eyes on the road, your hands upon the wheel
Keep your eyes on the road, your hands upon the wheel
Yeah, we're going to the Roadhouse
Gonna have a real
A good time
Love GGM... Never change...
0:17 - I feel we're going to crush some foe. Or we might just lose every game and look like an idiot...

Nice betting tip on Firouza

The aphex twin song was called "come to daddy" fyi
It's gold! Brown gold!😂

It'll be parents like that who give thumbs downs and probably complain which is why the channel takes so long to grow...
Better eat some ducks before next TT, it might help 😂
Mother fluffer 😂 we love you Simon

Ah, its time for the wednesday titual 😁
Was this not already posted or did I just enter an alternate dimension
Would you be down for a 300$ blitz match against a streamer ?
At last 👍👍
Ohhh ratings into 2700s creeping up :)
I have to return some videotapes.

Such a nice win at 1h10mins... Definitely thought it was a lost position.
At 1:07:02 guess he meant b4 to stop Rc5... but he mouseslipped...
I am 62 getting a little old
40:09 that's what I tell myself when I think I'm playing a good game of football. I different type of Messi.
I unsubscribed then re-subscribed because I realised my first subscribing weren’t cheeky. Rest assured the second was. ‘Twas I swear, sir!
Game two put pawns opposite color bishop
Best boo-boo moments

You think you're old, but are you _this_ old?:
ruclips.net/video/XCXL1ytil-w/видео.html
1.5 hour video not 11 games
Always play g5
This old canary was famished...this consumer expects 3000 rating by january
You play chess as badly as I do, only better!
So much using Jesus name in vain. You will see Jesus, one day, the one who died for you. What are you going to do with Jesus on earth?
