- A speed run on LiChess, but with the main idea of trying to identify the typical mistakes that my opponents are playing at the lower levels.
Hopefully, this will help you find and repair any such mistakes that you are making yourselves.

I just started playing chess in my 50's, and quite enjoy it. Out of all the channels on RUclips, I really appreciate your style of teaching, and how you break down positions and situations in an understandable way. Great stuff. Thank you,
As someone still in their early 20s, I think it's really cool that someone your age is choosing to play what many people consider a "young man's game." I hope I'll still have the motivation to improve at intellectual pursuits when I'm older!
Alongside Ginger GM, I also really enjoy some of Ben Finegold's older lectures very entertaining and educational, I would recommend you check out those as well!
Look up "John Bartholomew chess fundamentals"... That video series helped me gain over 300 rating points in one summer. Simon, John, Kingscrusher, and Eric Rosen have always been my favorite chess youtubers.
@@travisdurrans8866 Don’t know why many people would consider chess a young man’s game? I’m 72 & still playing, played a little as a youngster, before computers, then restarted when I retired. Good way to keep the brain active
@@royturv well I've heard people around me speak in that way, like my dad saying he won't play against me because he's too old, grandmasters like Magnus Carlsen complaining that their brains are getting slower with age, and more recently people talking about Gary Kasparov's recent performance and how it's not what it used to be
@@royturv Nowadays, it's a young man's game as you need to know so many theoretical lines and keep up to date with all the latest games and theory to be competitive
One of the most important phrases I learnt from a very good player is " you may have won it but you've still got to win it" !
I like that, I get into winning positions and start watching tv and shit and blow it and it'll ruin the whole day and i can't play for the day because i get tilted
That just translates to: You haven't won it yet, focus until you have.
'You may be winning, but you've still got to win it' is more accurate.
Timestamps for those that want them
0:58 Game 1 - Dutch defense
6:44 Game 2
11:14 Game 3 - Deutz gambit
19:01 Game 4 - Queen's gambit
Sorry if I used any of the wrong names, he didn't say all their names and I'm still a scrub.
Game 3 was not the evan's gambit, the evan's gambit occurs after ...Bc5 b4, his plan with d4 is called the Deutz Gambit
@@Sothey727 thanks. I updated it.
This is the most educational Chess Speedrun I saw in RUclips.
Yup. He takes time to explain things instead of bullying bad players
@Jack FitzGerald very good recommendation
Agree
@Jack FitzGerald very good as well I just prefer this because it's a bit slower especially for slow people like me 😂
@@jamesandrewferrer4860 Check again.
Narodidski is pretty much slow explaining every move.

@@sooooooooDark how do you get it up tho
Struggling to get it up @@bc1173?
It’s so funny watching this GM trying to identify what 1600 players would see or not see. (I know he was once a low rated player at some point, but still.) Sometimes he is underestimating basic things that we would definitely see and then hilariously totally overestimating what we would see - suddenly recognizing essentially every pattern, pin, and fork left and right at a whim.
It’s actually genuinely funny - and no, not in a bad way - (of course it’s difficult to revert oneself into an older mindset with less comprehension/understanding of the game).
Especially in blitz games, many of the pointless pawn moves like h3/h6 are simply to play something quickly which seem safe.
This Speed Run series is great. I love hearing the thinking process from a real game.
"My opponant has lashed out" 😂 just found your channel. Well late! Really enjoying it. 👍🏻
I personally love those educational videos, specially long play chess. Keep going with a lot of this content Simon! ❤️
Was enjoying Simon's Art of the Attack course today. This series is also fun and very instructive. 🌟🎆
Seeing common problems and how to exploit them is fantastic. Thank you for doing this series!
Was waiting for this. The thumbnail says #1 I was confused..
Another great lesson from Simon "bang us a queen in the position" Williams
Really instructive well-made video, thank you, probably the most instructive that I’ve seen on RUclips.
Please Ginger GM, don't stop this videos
As a long time sufferer of premature attaculation, I would like to offer my sincerest thanks for putting up this content. You are a boss.
Really enjoying this gentleman dismantling the way I play chess
I like Simon teaching a lot. Very instructive and I bought most his opening and mid game lessons and he used them in his games here and I learned from his play in video
I work through these vids a segment at a time and marvel at how quick and simple you make it look. Fantastic teaching aid!
Love this series, thank you so much!
Simon Williams you are my guru in chess. I have learnt so much from you. Evans gambit, french defense, dragodorf, budapest gambit and many more keep on this amazing work
I can follow along with you and understand what you are doing, and think to myself that I can do that. But in my own games, I get completely off track and lost faster than you can blink.
I already see I'll be watching this series more. Thanks for the content
Loving this series. Quite funny that you hadn't seen the early ...Bf5 before. It happens a lot playing at this level. It's another typical mistake - Black is focusing on getting the bishop outside the pawn chain without considering move orders or tactical nuances. Very often, these mistakes can be categorized as being "on auto-pilot".
though the tactic here was quite tricky, especially in a blitz game. so a good practical blitz choice although an objectively bad move.
I know it’s not in the spirit of the video, but I was really hoping you’d play the Evan’s Gambit at 11:40. Would’ve been fun to see how a grandmaster would use it against an average rated player!
Love this series Simon, please do more!
Love these videos! Keep them going!
GM GINGER I REALLY APPRECIATE YOUR DEDICATION TO TEACHING CHESS WHEN I GET A COUPLE OF DOLLARS AS I AM DISABLED I DEF WILL BE HITTING YOU OFF FOR ALL YOUR WORK AND HELPING ME SO MUCH BE BLESSED BE LOVE!!!
Great explaining. I think you're one of the best teachers of chess! More of this kind of content would be great, playing against lower rated opponents and explaining their errors.
This channel is definitely become one of my favourites. The ginger GM definitely is dropping some great knowledge in an understandable way.
"What is my opponent trying to do?" LOL If I only knew. Seriously, thanks, this video and others you've done are really informative and make me hopeful that I will improve!
"Oh Shit" 🤣 it's great to see GM blunders and reacts just the same as us commoners when we blunder and then realise it right after haha
I love the new series, maybe play with increment though- you will get fewer players who premove the whole opening
I imagine Katherine waiting patiently on the other end for Ginger to make a move while he verbally and publicly makes and example out of her
It's so refreshing to see this new type of content. Thank you so much, Simon!
Ginger GM is just Ben Finegold if he had a heart of gold
So true
I really enjoy your explanations and breakdown of your fundamental motives behind your moves! Thank you for sharing. Love your video's!
Keep going this series.. very very instructive!
Glad you're continuing this series in a more gradual build up! Thank you for these classes 👍
Your teachings helped me improve my game so much!
This is such a cool series, bravo Simon :)
The opponent while Simon is explaining why their move is really, really bad:
"Hey, that one got him thinking, that must've been solid"
Love this series! Please keep playing more openings from your chessable courses. I've bought your grandmaster gambits 1+2, club player's dynamite and dutch and reviewing every game I play to see if I played the right moves. To see a series like this with middle game ideas for those lines is amazing. You make it look so annoyingly bloody easy too :)
Fantastic video, Ginger!
This is my fav GingerGM RUclips series by far … 💪🏼😂💥👏🎉
Great new series. I don't really understand the lichess rating system but I'm here to learn either way.
This is the best lesson i ever heard thank you so much 🙏🙏
*I love your videos, man, cheers from Serbia!*
Very good explanations and how to punish mistakes, thanks.
Very nice idea, best channel on RUclips!
Subbed.
Why didn't i know about you before today?! Great stuff!! Prefer the 5min games as 3min is too short. Superb video mate.
These kind of videos will help me improve my chess alot
I've got to say, I really enjoy your videos and I quite feel I am learning a lot. RUclips recommended one of your videos today so I watched it and I am so glad I did. Thank you GGM!
Cristal clear: thx Simon, very usefull. Greeting from France^^
me sitting here as a 1000 : yep i agree yeeeaassss very goooood.
Thank you for this series Simon
Your commentary is very nice. Love the humor.
Very informative about the artificial frets, good frets, bad frets.
I find that all you really need at this level is a basic understanding of the first few moves of the most popular openings. That way, when the opponent plays a bad/odd looking move it kind of stands out and often it's an opportunity to gain an advantage.
at 4:16 I think white has Bxb7 winning tactically
Calculation was easy that calculation is what makes you gm ginger😂
These are rich with information. Definitely love your resources. Gonna check out your chessable courses!
Thank you so much for continuing the series
Hi Simon and hello from just down the road in Basingrad. Great instructive video as usual, thanks. Could I tempt you into a "Beer run" where we discover how many beers it takes for me to beat a GM? I'm a blunder-prone 1200....I think it would cost me a lot😁(although I do have your Jobava and French defense courses)
Awesome video need more speed runs
What a sadistic play you are grat really explaine to me i never know some things like when your oponent make a move with a pawn look to the weekneeses
Stockfish advises 4.Qb3 instead of 4.cxd5. I saw the right move in a millisecond. That makes me think at a Super GM level I guess if GingerGM doesn't even see 4.Qb3 as a candidate move. ;-p
good content, especially about the correct thought process. please do more of these, maybe in slower rapid games so there's more time to explain.
Very nice Sir! Really appreciate! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
the GChess site looks cool, but it's confusing when the engine takes 10 seconds to run and swings so much before it gets it right
I love these educational speed run !
The best chess personality hands down
In bedween waiting for Amans habits I'm going to check this one out
I'm so fast I spotted the mistake in the video thumbnail immediately! ;) Surely #1 should be #2...? Great video!
Really enjoyed this. Here's a comment for the algorithm.
Hi Simon, in the first game of this video where he takes your Knight with the Bishop and you then attack his Queen, would it have been worthwhile for him to allow you to take the Queen while going on to take your Bishop and Rook as well? So 3 pieces for his Queen, you then take his Bishop with the other Rook and his King takes your Knight.
Who's better after all that?!
By my calculations he'd have 2 Rooks and 2 Knights, and you'd have a Queen and Rook.
Or if he surprised you by allowing the Queen sacrifice by taking your Bishop, would you then step up one square with your Rook?
These are very instructive and entertaining! Thank you!
Premature attackulation!🤣🤣... This one is not going to get old.
Love the content Simon!
The opponent's moves are so bad that Mr. William can't even predict them.
13:05 she makes a move he spends 1 minute plus for response... She thinks she has made it tough for him, but he is roasting her xD
Great series. I'm guessing in the first game at 2:20 he didn't want to sack the g4 pawn by playing Nf3. Though I suppose if you are tossing in the h & g pawns down the board right away you have to be willing to sacrifice them, poor blighters.
Great job Simon.
Great stuff!! Keep em coming Simon 😊
I have the opposite problem, I'm too slow to prepare an attack and by the time I've got everything where I want it, it doesn't matter anymore, at least I don't blunder that way, but I miss alot of opportunities to pull the trigger
This series is great, keep it up!
very good simon.
I am not 2900 used player these videos help me see the positions and tactical ideas
amazing teaching method simon. thank you so much
Thank you so much! I really learn a lot!
Thank you GGM
I just learned about G Chess today thank you I love it I will be using it thanks Ginger GM your the greatest are you ever planning to play in public games like in New York at Washington square park levy did it and Alexandra Boetz was at 14 union square
Doesn’t he live in the uk? Long way to go for a public match
Really interesting thanks Ginger! p.s 13:47 love the Thermopylae reference lol
premature attackulation!!
hahaah...great. you earned yourself a sub!
:))
Every time I hear Simons's notification on WhatsApp I pause the video to check my own :))
Love it. Might even buy the Attack book :D
Hello SImon, you are definitely on top of the list when it comes to my favorite chess youtubers, but I have one little question that's been bugging me when I watch your videos, who is Fred ?
Probably a friend of Harry's
Thank you Sir Simon!
simply the best chess vids
Great series, Simon. I would love to see more.
I did have two suggestions:
1) Consider playing a longer time control. You chastised your opponents for playing too quickly in the opening, but at 1600 they need that time later in the game. If they followed your advice, they would lose more often on time than they would lose due to opening mistakes.
Alternatively, don't punish oppening mistakes; just get an equal middlegame position.
2) Do you know the distribution of chess ratings of your audience? It might be worth holding a poll. I would guess that many (myself included) are too weak to really benefit from a speedrun starting at 1600 blitz.
Daniel Naroditsky is doing a 10-minute speedrun which started at 800 rating and that series has taught me so much.
@Robert Bst2 I am aware of Simon's longer games; I was merely pointing out that 1600s who take their time during the opening will likely lose rating due to flagging. Their regular opponents are unable to exploit small opening mistakes, so I don't think the advice (though well intentioned) will benefit lower rated players. A speedrun with a shorter time control may be more entertaining to some, but I believe it will be less educational.
As for the intended rating range of this channel, that is up to Simon to decide. However, the advantage of a speedrun is that it can cater to all levels from 800 to 2200+, but not if he starts halfway through. You may personally prefer if he started at your level, but if the majority of his audience is below 1500 (for example), it may not be in his best interest as a creator.
1500 on lichess is around 1100 on chesscom, which is basically beginner level so I doubt most of his audience are at that level or below
@Robert Bst2 but surely as a 1600 on lichess, that counts as beginner
@@ym276 I'm not familiar with these rating conversion equations, nor do I put much faith in them. To me, 1600 seems a little high to start a speedrun.
Regardless, my suggestion was for Simon to hold a poll to find out what ratings his views have and make a decision based on that.
@Robert Bst2 but if you're those ratings online you will certainly be benefiting from these lessons I think
