Hello dear Michy ! Thank you very much for the video. Ryan played very fast indeed which is a bit surprising for certain decisions. Maybe he was a bit stressed and he feeled a bit tensed on the video (cursing sometimes, touching checkers when not his turn, making some remarks on your play - your recube...)
Not stressed, that is just his style of play. He says that he believes he plays better when he plays quickly, which is a philosophy I can get behind to a certain extent. Personally, I think some of his errors could be avoided if he were to slow down for tougher positions, but I don't play under a 3.0 on average. So if he thinks that's what works best for him, all the power to him.
I played many practice matches with Ryan in Montreal, and found he loves playing fast. It's his style. He basically recoganize the position very quickly.
I just wish you would slow down Ryan. You won't win many major titles playing like that. Just go back and listen to some of the commentary on your matches. You slam checkers, damn near break clocks slapping them. It's like watching a hyper 4 year old. You are destined for backgammon greatness just take it slower
I wish you'd just show checker play analysis while the decision is being made, not waiting until the play is made, and then flashing it by too quickly. It is very easy for viewers simply not to look at the analysis until they wish to see it, while we are thinking about the play ourselves. It is not helpful to show instead analysis for all the obvious no-doubles.
Thanks for uploading Michy!
Thanks for watching and leaving the comment, buddy!

@@mackenzieusher8025 I didn't know his philosophy, but it makes sense to me.
Thank you for uploading, Michy! Can you explain why Ryan plays like he had just taken speed? 😳😳
Others asked me the same question. He has quick mind and love playing fast. That's my impression. ☺
My worst match of the whole tournament.
Then, I need to post your best match next. 😉

Thank you for your advice. I'll do that in the future videos.
ryan is a very annoying guy
Not at all. He is a fantastic player.
Seems I pick up my fair share of haters, eh Michy? Knowing me I probably deserve it @@MichyBG
