Hi and thanks for hanging out in the comments! This video is a bit of an experiment. Instead of showing you a million lines I'm focusing more on giving you the gist of the strategy and key moves/themes/patterns that you will find useful in practice. I'm really happy to have Brilliant as a sponsor for this video - I think it is a perfect fit for the channel tbh! Go to brilliant.org/asmrchess to get a 30-day free trial + the first 200 people will get 20% off their annual subscription. I'm also experimenting with chapters. I'm really curious to know how it works (or doesn't work) for you and if you have any tips for improvement. Thanks for watching, listening, reading and for being part of chess!
Quick question at 23:22 would Bishop to f4 be a guaranteed queen, if queen goes c5, a1rook goes to c1. Wouldn't that win the piece or am I missing something?
Yh I was 2500 but thx to this channel and his recommandations of openings like the budapest or smith-morra, I now have forgotten how the knights move and reached 1000! Only 999 players ahead! What annoys me is the very good and relaxing asmr that slows down the learning of these quality openings 😉
This ASMR experience is a true sensory escape! The soft sounds and delicate sensations transported me into a state of absolute calm. Thank you for sharing these relaxing moments that brighten my day!
"Rook is called "Cannon" in Russian" isn't correct, but at the same time isn't entirely incorrect in a very curious way. At least since the late 19th century, a Rook in Russian is called Ladya (Ладья). The word means a ship similar to a Scandinavian longship. But, an older and obsolete name for a Rook was Tura (Тура). Which is an outdated word for a siege tower. Given how a classical Rook looks - makes sense. However, for a brief period (about 30 years in the early 16th century) the word "Tura" in Old Russian meant "Artillery". Not "cannon" but the entire artillery force used, for example, in a siege, or the entire artillery branch of the army.
ASMR chess teaches me the Sicilian and wonderful variations. After practicing and playing against my friends, now, the amazing ASMR chess teaches me how to dismantle the Sicilian. Excellent! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.
Oh perfect! I'm always playing the Sicilian and the Smith-Morra pops up from time to time; this is a great way to see it from the other side! Also, the soonsir sgment is amazing. You could sell me almost anything lol. Happy to see you got a Brilliant sponsor! I feel like every good educational channel I've ever watched gets a sponsor from them, and it was about time. You deserve it!
Currently writing my m.a. thesis, your videos are a treat at the end of each day. Actually doing Classics, so hearing you say telos made me happy. Thank you for your work, mr. Asmr Chess.
i love the Smith-Morra and it's the first opening I learned when i began actually studying chess because the person I played the most against loved the sicilian. It's always great to see it getting some love. It's really defined my style of play which is to be aggressive, make sacrifices, and keep pressure on the opponent. solid chess is good chess, but imo theory and defense are no substitute for wagering a pawn for development or a piece for position. also, you have a very pleasant voice. thanks for the video!
I am SOOOO happy to see you cover this. The Morra was the first opening I ever seriously studied and that coincided with me finding your videos in late 2020. I’m sure this video will be a banger!
awesome as always. i was afraid the smith morra was super dubious but i checked stockfish and its actually just fine. also another thing was that the brilliant sponsor has a white theme. i know its how the website is but it did burn my eyes 😂❤
I really enjoyed the video and the explanation. Could you keep the same camera angle throughout the video? I like the calm aspect of the same rather than showing the side view. Thanks again.
Hi, thank you so much for the quality chess content. At the expense of Rook's name in Russian the most popular is "Lad'a (Ladia)", an Old Russian sailing vessel, or "Tura" (old Russian word for basically tower of castle, as for me I heard it only once) Suddenly never heard of any guns =) Ps Special thanks for the videos on chess theory, I remember it easier thanks to your presentation
so @24:06 say the rook was to slide under the knight attacking it and knight went where rook just was couldn't rook just slide back and take? or if knight went to the legal move next to other knight couldn't pawn take? Could this be a effective counter ASMRChess?:)
0:35 - I know he's kinda just saying funny sounding stuff but the Sicilian Sveshnikov, Novosibirsk variation is, depending on who you ask, in fact denoted by precisely 9. Bxf6, or denoted by the logical followup 9...gxf6 10. Nd5 Bg7, though 10...f5 is more fashionable. 1. e4 c5 2. Nf3 Nc6 3. d4 cxd4 4. Nxd4 Nf6 5. Nc3 e5 6. Ndb5 d6 7. Bg5 a6 8. Na3 b5 9. Bxf6
Yes it is. It is a hand carved premium item. If you use the link and promo code in the description you will get 10% discount on it or any other product from the World Chess Shop :)
I really like your content but can you please make sure to give a first person perspective of the pieces you/we are playing? So in this case the white pieces should be in the foreground of the camera and not in the back.
I'm happy you like my content! No, while I usually make the videos from the audience's perspective I won't be doing that in every video for various reasons.
Raison d'être /ˌreɪzɒ̃ ˈdɛtrə/ is a French expression commonly used in English, meaning "reason for being" or "reason to be". And "Telos". Telos is the ancient Greek term for an end, fulfilment, completion, goal or aim; it is the source of the modern word 'teleology'.

I love your content! It makes me so sleepy
Chapters are really useful, they would of been great in the Max Lange attack vid but for gambit and opening videos they are great
Chapters are great, and I like the idea of teaching the key moves
Showing the general theme of the opening instead of possibilities is a great idea. I learned a lot. Thank you❤️

22:58
Love that you recognize people are probably asleep, but you’re still dedicated to teaching those of us who have made it this far 🙏🏽
I don’t think he meant that
This channels the reason i just barely understand how to play chess
This could be read as a compliment or a slam 😝

Literally the best ASMR and chess channel on RUclips, so underrated

That's very interesting.
In Romanian we also call the Rook "Tura" like in the old Russian times.
the premise of todays video is very interesting! i like the switch up every once in a while. keep making great content!

A video on the Dutch defense would be cool

35:30 "he can't capture, because we can capture the bishop" of course and leave the queen alone 😂
Last time I fell asleep to one of your videos I actually dreamt of chess… but like in full detail, actually seeing the moves I played on a board
Currently writing my m.a. thesis, your videos are a treat at the end of each day. Actually doing Classics, so hearing you say telos made me happy. Thank you for your work, mr. Asmr Chess.
🎉
I started watching this channel as an asmr viewer (which is personally still my favorite part, great asmrtist!) and now you have me playing everyday
only sponsored segment i dont skip
Really liked it when you talked as the pieces there 23:40 maybe make a whole video where you just speak as the pieces!
i love the Smith-Morra and it's the first opening I learned when i began actually studying chess because the person I played the most against loved the sicilian.

Fantastic timing, I started trying to learn this gambit yesterday. Thank you! 😊
Love ur videos I been learning a lot thanks
Another brilliant video 😆 appreciate the chapters!
Very cool gambit and a pretty chill asmr
Loving the videos, the video about the russian war intrigued me about the petrov opening. Could we have a video on the petrov's opening?
I am SOOOO happy to see you cover this. The Morra was the first opening I ever seriously studied and that coincided with me finding your videos in late 2020. I’m sure this video will be a banger!
I love your opening videos, *especially* the ones like this where you show the main ideas rather than exact variations.
The lighting on this is so beautiful!
I love your contents and the unique way of presenting them. Thank you so much! 🙏🙏🙏💖💖💖
Another great upload! This helped me see some areas where I've been going wrong.
Edit: I really like the chapters!
awesome as always. i was afraid the smith morra was super dubious but i checked stockfish and its actually just fine. also another thing was that the brilliant sponsor has a white theme. i know its how the website is but it did burn my eyes 😂❤
Such a relaxing voice.
Love the content! I learn a lot about chess while also relaxing from you. Keep up the great work!
Wonderful
Keep em coming. I don't won't sigh upon seeing the Sicilian anymore
Thanks for explaining the " Whys" of the moves. I look forward for your next excellent videos..
I am Sicilian I don't know s*** about Chess but I imagine it's probably less than thanks to your soothing voice I do like this video 🎉
The channel got me into chess
i came to this channel to relax and ended up watching the channel to learn chess 😂
I really enjoyed the video and the explanation. Could you keep the same camera angle throughout the video? I like the calm aspect of the same rather than showing the side view. Thanks again.
Rest assured nights sleep when asmr chess posts
I like the rook as artillery! Lol
As a followup to this might I suggest showing the Esserman - van Wely game?
It's a classic, and just a really nice game people should see
i cant wait for the chess history and pieces videos
The best asmrtist just posted 🎉

So good, could you do a video on the o kelly sicilian?
I can't explain how much I love your content. I've probably commented more on your channel than every other channel combined

Yet another upload! Yay😊
I got excited seeing this video cause I actually played this
I love asmr chess more than food and water
Hey love the videos and i just have a question do you still use the chessup board and if you could make more videos with it ❤
I love this opening! It's my main response against c5 and I beat my highest rated opponent with it in a classical game
Niiice
lovely video, can you do a binaural video?
Bro that sponsor was literally perfect timing
it's different!
I meant to ask you - is that an official world championship chess board you're using? It looks absolutely divine!
Yes it is. It is a hand carved premium item. If you use the link and promo code in the description you will get 10% discount on it or any other product from the World Chess Shop :)
Hello, just a request. Can you make a full sicilian HYPER accelerated dragon? Its theroy and i deas, just like the format of this video.
Yes
I play the O'Kelly Sicilian :D
What if black plays b4 before you get your queen out?
As a Dragon player, I want to know your location.
Let's go I got the discount🥳🥳🥳
Cool ad, just one problem. The only visual asmr I need is en passant mate
Why wouldn't black play e5 instead of e6? It seems like that play would mess up a lot of the discovered check ideas here.
Now, I useing the calming video and my personal hatred for the Sicilian. Will crush my opponent with this deadly wepon.
Can you do a video on the Stafford Gambit?
so this is gambit against mafia, noted
lmao
Me:"Trying to learn a really in depth strategy"
Also me:*Falls asleep and doesnt learn anything*
Your videos are amazing🎉💯
A full guide on the king’s gambit would be awesome !!
What about 3. c3 e5 for black
You are quite literally the premier Anti-thot ASMR channel. I really appreciate you and your hard work, good sir. 🎩
"Anti-thot" I chuckled. It's true tho, many of those people have ruined the reputation of ASMR whether it was intentionally or not
Can we get a video on the cow opening or botez gambit and tag me if you do 😂
Smith and Wesson gambit
thoughts on the delayed smith morra? I prefer it
i have a really nice game that mimics the nd5 idea u mentioned
Is 800 elo in blitz the same as 800 elo in a normal game
For the algorithm
❤
smith & watercloset

I despise the Sicilian. This video will be very helpful. Thanks!
Hey. You said in the video about rocks' names in Russian. Their names don't mean cannon, but boats. Idt why😂
@asmrchess what did you say at 6:40 brother?

And
"Telos". Telos is the ancient Greek term for an end, fulfilment, completion, goal or aim; it is the source of the modern word 'teleology'.
Thank you
I tried this Smith-morra and it doesn't work! They blow holes all threw this and I don't get a chance to do anything you show here.
i can’t fall asleep.. my friend loves to abuse the sicilian against me because i don’t know how to play against it😭😭😭
"BEAT THE SICILIAN"
but everybody knows you should never go up against a Sicilian, especially when death is on the line!
❤❤❤❤
Now i can beat my dad hehehehehehe
Найс
Don't be teaching people how to beat my dragon
Sorry

100th comment lmao
I’m not bad at chess, over 1800, and this is top.
your voice is so calming i always fall asleep watching them 😂
