The ability to watch a 2600 GM walk through a game of chess is something that can’t be taken for granted. This series is literally one of the most helpful chess tools ever created
It’s like getting a 30 minute entrepreneurship class from Elon Musk every other day. This is wonderful material.
… if Elon was as didactically adept as Danya
Ikr he's actually a really good instructor and this series is packed with knowledge
Isn't he like 3000 something?
Becoming a Super GM is probably more difficult then becoming a very rich entrepreneur. Also, it is much more useful I think. Listening to rich people rarely makes people rich lol.
I love how you always ask “does this make sense?”
It always makes sense Danya. You convey information wonderfully.
Everything he does at the board conveys information
@@SumoCumLoudly thats why he is not all loosey goosey eating a sandwitch.
Whatever he says is sense👍
Kudos to this opponent playing this to the end so that we get the education all the way to the end. Very good sportsmanship and as always, great teaching by Danya
I like watching Danya's video with Stockfish on a 2nd screen, you can see how strong he is as he is literally playing the first or second line of the computer every time and explaining why. Definitely the best chess streamer/teacher all over the Internet by far
I'll start doing this as well. Thank you!
I think this is my favorite elo to watch. No obvious blunders by the opponent (with the exception of a poor opening idea) and just good understandable, methodical, and instructive play, but not such a high level that the tactics are beyond a lower-level player's grasp. Great content as always!
This was my favorite game so far; Kxd7 was mindblowing, and then the buildup against the d pawn and slow positional crush was very satisfying. Want to see the analysis!
Yeaaah, the king was like a medallion of glue on c6
I agree. I am the same rating as his opponent, and wouldve never considered kxd7
That move and bringing the rook over to the kingside. I would've been locked in on winning that d3 pawn.
I dont know if u read this Danya, but as an 1800 casual player you are the only GM that consistently manages to make me understand your WHOLE games. Credit where credit is due.
i love how he casually anticipated every single move his opponent was gonna play in the endgame
yup was looking for this comment. that blows me away every time.
Part of that is Danya is just another (much higher) class of player but some of it is just having such a terrible position.
They don't call him The Prophet for nothing!
Everyone, 19:09 take a look how quickly Danya evaluates 3 possible Q moves to find the checkmate.
I think this is one of the most informative games yet. The opponent didn't make any major mistakes and just gradually got outplayed.
Very instructive and proactive thinking in the middle + endgame. Great content as always
This is my favorite series on YT right now, this is the stuff I've been looking for to take my game to the next level.
I love this series, very instructive. It’s seems to be so easy with Danya commentary 😂 in my games I always blunder at some point, but still it’s helping me to getting familiar with some positions and understanding them, I’ve applied some patterns in my games from those videos. Getting High level knowledge from top player is amazing, thank you for your work 🙏🏼
First time visiting this channel and I love it! Thanks so much Daniel!
Watching these videos has helped me improve more than anything else on TH-cam, you're an excellent teacher. 👏
best and most informative chess videos out there... thank you so much Danya! saludos desde Mexico
Thanks for sharing another great video! You’re amazing teaching for these wonderful lessons!
Mindbogglingly great. Love this series!
Didn't know about your channel earlier. But a GM making things clear in such a way and a totally instructive video like this deserves lot of applause. 👏👏👏 Thank you sir. I'll regularly watch your channel and twitch channel too now to develop thinking process in Chess.
What a great game! Very entertaining & instructive. Thanks!
what an incredible game to watch. Thanks for the wonderful content.
Awesome videos. Keep it up. Great commentary
really appreciate all the effort that goes into putting out tthese videos.
Wow that's an incredible game to watch. Thanks!
Thank you for these vids!!!
Amazing game, Danya. After watching videos like this I feel like donating to you. However, I couldn't find a link for donation on your video description. I would recommend you to add links for donation in all of your masterclass videos. Thank you for these lessons. It's overwhelming in a positive way! Love your teaching
day 33 of saying you're kickbutt danya. You're the master of chess tutorials and line instruction. My chess game has improved drastically thanks to you, and I love your stream. Thank you for uploading!
nice one. love the series.
I’m late to the party but thank you Daniel for this content! It’s truly invaluable and since watching all your vids I jumped from 1400 up to 1680
When he says..Getaaaadafff there.. Am trying to improve simply by your videos and i must say I have learned more than any other resource.. Can't thank you enough for this man ❤❤❤
Eating a giant bowl of curry and rice while watching Sensei Danya is one of my life's great joys. Thank you!
You're honestly the best Chess coach on TH-cam. How is this Content free?!
Cool game I was following the game with the help of stockfish. Sure, there were some small errors from the black side but the opening was very educational and thought us how to deal with those silly "sidelines" that opponents like to employ to distract us. Thanks!
thank you for this. this helps me improve thank you very much 🙂🙂🙂☺️☺️
Honestly honestly it’s no question that you’re a world class player, but the fact you are also world class at teaching is so rare for those who are the best at what they do in almost any field!
You are a teaching genius man!
10:39 i love how in tune he is with "whippersnapper" slang
A smooth game!
Nice example of how to outplay peoples.
Thanks 😊
Watching him move the queen around for the very last move searching for checkmate and finding it so quickly blows my mind. I tried to slow it down to .25x and wipe my mind of the position and came back to see if I could keep up in calculating and I flat couldn't do that nearly as quick as him. Blows my mind
I love your reaction on 0:56...Wow, Nf3...:)
I usually pride myself on guessing moves/lines right as or before Danya plays them, but I don't think I'm alone in not even considering Kxd7 with the idea of Kc6 to follow. I probably would've taken with the rook, controlling the file and preparing to double rooks after I developed the dark square bishop. Weirdly enough, stockfish seems to prefer taking with the bishop (but it also doesn't like the Nd7 move offering the knight trade, preferring instead Nh5 to kick the knight away one move later with f6.)
To me, it was abundantly clear how strong the king on c6 made the position for black, defending a well-placed pawn that limited white's counterplay, without ever being in danger of much more than an empty pawn check that was quickly captured back. Excellent and illustrative game!
Yea kxd7 makes a lot of sense when you look at the board for some seconds, but obviously its the difference between him and us that he even considers it in rapid
Thanks for the vídeo danya!
I hope you can do one of these where he takes on d5 instead of Nf3. Thank you for these great videos!
This was such an enjoyable game to watch
Absolutely amazing
That was one of the most instructional games i´ve seen, incredible quality of content.
As always your video is great
I love how you explain!!!
This series is excellent
That was a really nice game!
What a fantastic video series....
Thank you!
Thank you GM Danya
Ah yes ive been waiting on this
Damnnn, kxd7 looked like a terrible blunder to me, absolutely astonishing that you played it and made it work. Thanks for the upload Danya, apreciate it.
we love you Daniel!
Thank you Sensei Danya!
Best of luck for the Magnus Tour!
Such quality content for free, thanks Danya!
Why would you have to pay for this it’s TH-cam
It’s so fascinating to see that endgame where he just casually blitz his way to checkmate
A reminder that he’s toying w/ us & could crush you whenever he feel like it. GMs are built different
You know Danya is a master not only because he makes it look so easy but mainly because he can explain it so even a complete novice would understand.
That was awesome. Can you please do a video on the Sicilian Kan? Would love to hear your thoughts on it.
Very good and a Chess profesional coach
When he found that mate at the end damn
lets gooo danya😍😍
I am always not confident while playing against the Sicilian alapin, thanks for this video.
We never got to see what he was planning to play
@David yeah I am wondering too. It's a shame.
Thanks danyaa
thanks
I just love this series, there is really nothing out there that compares to this in terms of quality of the analisis and how easy and logical it all seems
Yes! The Alapin Sicilian! One of Danya's favorite variations as BLACK instead of White! Whoop!!
"unfortunately we're facing a c3 sicilian" - this response by black players is why the c3 sicilian is awesome, heh
Yeah because it's so boring lol
yea i bet whites who play c3 are fun at parties
Lmao. It's not dangerous at all for black. It's just that the main lines end up very simple and equal and it's hard for either side to get an attack so it's kind of a drag and no-one likes playing it. Sort of like the french exchange.
When you think you’re playing well but your opponent starts quoting Nimzowitsch
12:30 "I'm not sure why you guys want h5" because we're imagining Bg4 getting a skewer. I suppose f3 stops that threat.
Bg4+ f3 and there’s nothing. it’s a pointless move
Great
Naroditsky is doing well in the Aimchess Rapid at the moment.
I'm a little late to the party, but... outstanding instruction.
One day i will be able to play like him... one day...
Opponent: blunders queen
Danya: yeah, this guy is spicy
Beginners: look for free pieces
Intermediate: look for possible pressure and checkmates
Advanced: look for positional game and traps, tricks
Masters: gaining space advantage, punish inaccuracies, play solid
GrandMaster: let your opponent to loose game even with the best moves
The opponent is really good probably the best opponent to practice with
I think this represents the mindset of a lot of beginners who play the alapin. They play it to "avoid theory" but he just got crushed because he didn't know alapin opening theory.
We are actually getting the valuable insight and thinking process of a Super GM for free, for which he can charge hundreds of dollars.
I don't think he's a super GM, but I agree.
@@PROJECTJoza100 It depends on what time control you are talking about. He is a Super GM at really fast time controls. And in classical, he is a very strong GM: GM starts at 2500. His current rating (from Wikipedia) is 2623, with a peak at 2647. The boundary for Super GM is today taken to be 2700, so he's closer to that than to GM.
Anyway, given that these are 10 minute games, I would think he likely is Super GM in the 10 minute format. (But it's a very uncommon format at higher levels.)
Anyway, here is an 80 game fast time-format match against Magnus where Danya wins half the games. th-cam.com/video/-gspiFARqto/w-d-xo.html
Even if Magnus was having a bad day, Danya's has to be in Super GM land in that time format to achieve such a thing.
@@Blitnock sure, you could argue that he is super gm in fast formats, but I thought and heard people say super GM only when referring to classical games.
Please make another video explaining the sideline you were going to play
Clean kill my guy
i love u danya
I am always waiting for these videos and i dont even play chess.
Than it is time to start. Its never to late to have fun with chess.
Whats the knocking sound? for example at 1:14 and 1:27
I used to play this 100% but now I play this and smith Morra
It’s crazy how positions like this you don’t win anything, there’s not many tactics but the pressure just keeps mounting and mounting then once one thing falls a few moves later it goes from even material to up 13 points. Insane.
Am I only person who wondering what would be the move Danya play after ed, instead Qxd5?
Playing the pawn to f4, would I be right in saying that this is like stepping into the enemies territory which can be double edged and might need some more consideration
Yes it’s like when you throw a punch you risk overextending yourself and being countered just like pushing pawns 😂I like his instruction on that idea
I wish all the 1800s I faced played as carelessly as this other guy.
I mean his opponent played fairly well for his rating, and the 1800s you verse do make the same mistakes, you just aren’t as strong as danya so you’re not always playing the best move to apply maximum pressure and make your opponent fumble
Unfortunately, we never heard what was the alternative to Qxd5!
why cant the 1800s i play against have terrible opening prep involving there queen lol
Opponent: blunders a pawn and plays terrible in the opening
Danya: No this guy is good
He is hyping up weak opponents for some reason. When he plays good opponents, he is mostly silent and focused.
This is like watching a pro fighter spar a toddler while giving commentary - woah! This toddler is for real! His punches are lightning fast! He almost knocked me out there, you can never be too careful!
19:09
His opponents be like: he is playing very slow... Please flag
18:32 this guy missed Nd6+ he is still losing since he is gonna be down 2pawns but it was a good move
I think it's actually two rooks vs knight and bishop. After Nd6+ Kc6, White takes the bishop. Since White played Nd6+ instead of Rf1, Black can now win Whites Rook on d1 without sacrificing.
@@stilleswassermaximalist What if Nxf5 Rh1+, Kf2 though? The rook isn't lost but I believe the white bishop will soon be with Kf2 Rh2+, Ke1 Rxf1+, Kxf1 Rh1+ I didn't check with engine though so I might be wrong
Nd6+ Kc6, Nxf5 Rh1+, Kg2 R6h2+!, Kf3 Rxd1 black is winning
At what point do we start to be concerned for other chess coaches? Danya is going to put them out of business, they just can't compete 😆
The way you described his opening moves I expected complete steamrolling and not a slow positional endgame :( Maybe trading queens was a mistake in a hindsight?
No it was not
