@@weareprayingforthelost oh cool! That’d be Priyanshu I guess

@@chyngyzdavletov214 correct!

Long

@@NoorKhanNY you can do it!

@@tabatadc6697 Max is a tough opponent, requires full focus to beat him.

@@weareprayingforthelost oh great! Two months of 1-and-1 forehand drilling paying off then!

The one at 9-10 in first set got me !

thank you! you should open one there!

@@chyngyzdavletov214 I wish I could !

what to do))

@@chyngyzdavletov214 for a league match, you could establish before the match illegality of his serves and that you will can them out-or discuss them with the league organizers. Cheat serves are rampant with these types of players. Serve rules need to be enforced!

@@MingEr8 yeah that makes sense! what if serving legal will open up a new feeling or technique for him when serving and his serves will improve a lot?! 😁

@@chyngyzdavletov214 his skills are terminally capped.

@@peterreid9769 oh yes for sure it’s an honour and tremendous luck I had a chance to get a training session from her

Thank you! But I tried to use more FH than BH in this match, because it's easier to continue attacking and looping with FH than BH))

thank you! yeah I think he started losing focus after 1.5 sets; after that it was too hard to get back I think.

yeah I dont see much sense in 11-0-ing someone whom I have spent hours of training with)) actually in general too...unless it's a world champ match of course where every point counts and it's just too risky to throw a winning opportunity)

Thanks! Yeah Lily yip u2200 June; she was 2197 or something like that that day with peak rating 2200+

he's been in the 1800-1850 range so far, havent broken 1900 yet as of writing this. I like his technique form and footwork; I think he's lacking a bit of understanding of spin game as of now to go 1900+

thank you! yeah I think 4-5 days a week I can count on my bh more than my fh. I've lost my fh for some time, hopefully it comes back soon! when my fh is on, it's more powerful and dangerous than bh, but the game is such that mostly this is the case for most people and thus people at tend to send the balls to their opponents' BHs, but I can attack from that side with a high degree of consistency too.

Must be the lighting !

@@masterflamewing234 great observation! The last two matches in that tourney I barely could stand and play - before this 1/2 final I had played 7 matches that day and 6 matches on previous day (winning u2100). I just tried to survive basically 😄 I’d like to believe the legs-body sync is a little better when I’m fresh, but yeah you’re absolutely right

@@JohnnyGoodall-cs9yn welcome to the world of amateur table tennis where people in the background make stupid shouts and players don’t attack long serves 😄

@@minsin5595 in the video it was stiga legacy + dna hybrids XH on both sides. I’m interchangeably using stiga dynasty + k3 both sides or dynasty +mxd both sides (when air humidity is less than 70% when training at my home club) - these are my three main rackets

​@@chyngyzdavletov214Thank you!

@@phamster18 great advice thanks! I can’t remember if those were short or medium pips though…it was so long ago! I’m leaning towards them being medium pips, judging by the fact she is “looping” with them as opposed to flat hitting, which is why many put short pips on their forehand sides; with short pips those “loops” are very rare. In general I find short pips easier to play against as there is less variety in terms of the incoming ball compared to medium pips. Long pips are also more predictable for me, so it is the medium pips that I’m struggling the most I feel like

@@chyngyzdavletov214 if medium pips... i agree.. very difficult to play against... and i never serve side spin when i face long pips player... i aways keep the spin north and south ! hahaha....

@@phamster18 yes that’s my strategy as well! Just keeping it simple ))

Yeah great observation as this often gets overlooked

Thanks for the comment! Feedback taken! But whether or not he beats me with his fixed FH - remains to be seen. The game is not static, if he changes something (like fixing fh) I will adapt and come up with some counter strategy. I used what was working and if I feel he makes mistakes, I’ll let him be aggressive and make mistakes. Also, his fh looked very solid in his previous matches, he beat some good players to reach semi-finals, so I’m taking some credit for the fact that his FH suddenly became bad in a match with me - “you can only play as good as your opponent lets you”

The kid’s bh is even worse… He had a lot of chances to smash with bh but he didn’t. I don’t think the kid would win even after he fixed the FH. He had no chance…

@@explorery6691 yeah it's common that people tend to have stronger FHs than BHs. his BH is quite solid in a rally though; where it lacks is opening against the pushes I felt. So yeah that gave me a bit more "safety" to just push back to his BH when I wasnt ready to attack and then wait for better opportunity...Also, we played earlier that day and it was a comfortable 3-0 victory for me, so there was certainly some psychological advantage on my side in the 2nd match. He did change some things since the first match and gave a much better fight in just couple hours later which is great.

@@Jekuruu yeah fully agreed. I’m on a taller side so for me it’s more challenging to sit lower during points. I’m doing 1-and-1 fh drill every session for the last ~6 weeks and it slowly starts to show in my recent matches, as I’m suddenly able to throw in more loops per point than before. It’ll take more time I guess to get fully integrated into my game (also it’s not clear what the extent of that “fully” is). Obviously we want to be as good as we can, but there are limitations as to what one can objectively reach at this age 😄

@@chyngyzdavletov214 I see! Well you keep working hard and results will come! Keep at it champ!

@@Jekuruu will try my best sir! 👍

@@vagav it’s an individual thing; for me every scream lets energy out which can be very powerful boost; but I can’t do it constantly so I try to find the right moment when it matters most - sometimes I succeed sometimes I don’t. And when it doesn’t work it can backfire because you just gave some amount of energy out for nothing .

@@chyngyzdavletov214 Oh I meant your opponent screaming!

@@vagav for him it’s helpful I guess; for me it doesn’t matter whether my opponent is screaming or not, I try to focus on the actual point and when it comes to my opponent - only on their actual actions in terms of strategy, shot selection, positioning etc

@@vagav ah… you’re so right! lol my bad

thank you! glad you liked it! yes, it was a good game and I had my chances...will try better next time!

yes, very intense game...especially first two sets. The ability to change the game depends on the number of strategies you can implement and how wide is your shots selection. it's useful to practice all sorts of different shots and strategies during practice games and matches played "for fun". I feel that it is very important to enjoy the game too!

@@chyngyzdavletov214 you made some top spin serves that got that kid confused, gj!

Tienes razón en que hay que variar y probar alternativas en los partidos informales. Lo tendré en cuenta. Y lo de divertirse parece una tontería pero a veces se me olvida! Un saludo!​@@chyngyzdavletov214

come on I still remember your shots...they're fire!

interesting observation! you're right, I dont change it much when serving backhand serve or fh hook/tomahawk-like variations serves. But when serving traditional pendulum and reverse-pendulum, I am holding the racket with 3 fingers - index and thumb on the rubber surface and middle finger along the blade's handle. Depending on who I'm facing and what racket I'm playing with, I might use certain serves more than others on that day.

@@chyngyzdavletov214 ok interesting. Are you from Kazakhstan

@@chyngyzdavletov214 Are you from Kazakhstan

@@taureanlloyd925 Kyrgyzstan

thanks man! yeah she's a tough opponent. Her pips shots caused me a lot of trouble. I have played against stronger players, but this match with her was definitely one of the good matches I had against 2200 level players and where I felt I actually had a reasonable chance to win.

@@bekabest yeah sometimes I guess! Definitely not this time though … hard earned victory. Who knows how it’d have ended had Jason won 2nd set!

thanks! yeah he just wouldnt stop being a wall...I was like "I'm done - if he wins, he wins"

@@tabatadc6697 ¡Gracias señor!

Gracias señor!

@@frankdong7396 thanks man! I tried !

@@imranarshad6913 thanks man! There was a dozen of moments things could have gone wrong though 😄

@@sumanbardhan5561 thanks man! You played well yourself and made it very hard for me to go through! Looking forward to our next encounter !

@@АнтМак-УНО спасибо! В целом неплохо, но многовато ошибок в простых ситуациях, надо спокойнее играть. Плюс реализация преимущества по счету тоже оставляет желать лучшего.

@@chyngyzdavletov214 так у всех, это не по диагонали покрутить с одной точки :)

@@adilharis2001 thanks man! The key is to use the energy those balls possess and gently transfer it back to the other side of the net, finding the right angle of the racket on contact. If contact is not gentle , they fly out the table as happened more times than I would have liked it to in the video…

thank you!

oh yes you did sir! :) you played well 👍
